.Be BOLD.

Bold patterns, and bright colors, should have a space in everyone's closet. These pieces you can mix n match them up numberless times, fitting them for any occasion. Its always good to sometimes have something bright upon an yourself and your outfit, it can be clothes, shoes, the nail polish, makeup,etc.

Concluding: it basically makes a statement, based on how you wear and work it.

Can you pull it off ? As Jay would put it, "FAB or FUG ?"

. Gossip Girl .

Besides being a hit Tv series, including one of the most different and uniquely beautiful cast members. From the places they shoot, to the fashion sense each character portrays, and the undeniable power that Chuck Bass has to make all girls want more, and how Serena Van der W.'s contagious laugh makes us smile, how Dan Humphrey's humility makes him even more lovable...etc. Its a combination of things that make this show "can't take my eyes off" type of show. They show us the life of "Manhattan's elite", it is intriguing and addictive, especially for those of us who love and live for fashion and adore watching each episode, one more avant-gard than the other! From season 1, 2, 3...and so on the sense of fashion just evolves  and keeps us wanting more.

This should be upon anyone's MUST watch list, for sure!

.Eclecticism: Street Chic.

It doesn't get more fashion forward than street chic, heroine chic, etc. This style has become timeless, because it simply consists of a "right" combination of clothing, none the less mixing patterns, old & new tendencies, I would consider this as one of the many derivations that can come about from  " eclecticism ".

Eclecticism is known as " a tendency in architecture and the decorative arts to mix various historical styles with modern elements with the aim of combining the virtues of many styles or increasing allusive content ".

I personally love this style, and find it just amazing, you can go from casual to night wear, to job appropriate, etc. It has so many variations, this is not something you can keep count of, there are just endless ways of portraying it.
