Menswear Monday: The Summer Uniform, Part 6
/The Loose Ends Now that you’ve got your basics, a few other items will complete the package.
Belt: Just like jeans, shoes and jackets, belts look best when they’re really basic or lovingly worn in. Find a canvas or nylon webbing belt and a brown leather belt, and beat the hell out of both of them.
Read MoreWhere Have I Been?
/You may have noticed that my blog posts have slowed down in the month of July, and that's because I have been insanely busy with fun projects! YAY! This, of course, means that there will be many more fun posts to come in the month of August. I won't leave you hanging though. Here's a little sneak peak into a couple of photo shoots that I have taken part in this month.
The first shoot was with several friends and a VERY talented designer and photographer. Details will be revealed in September/October. (Behind the scenes pics below)
I also styled a photo shoot for a hair academy that was once Toni & Guy and is now called Brillare. It was an awesome learning experience. (Photos below) Can't wait to share more with you guys.
Tonight I'm off to brainstorm a Marie Antoinette set in modern day times bridal shoot. I'm REALLY excited about that!!! Keep you eyes peeled for the unveiling of all this hard work.
White Denim = Bad Idea
/You may or may not heard that white denim skinny jeans are one of the summer staples for 2010. Well, I finally scored my pair of jeans at TJ Maxx last week ($12), and let me just say that I'm glad I only paid $12. My mind must have been clouded by wanting to be on trend rather than thinking, "Alex, you can barely keep white tank tops from getting stained. What makes you think you can keep white pants from the same death sentence?!"
I wore them ONE DAY, and then got dirty! I washed them and put them on this morning...Stain! Stain!!!! Right on my knee, and I can't get it out with bleach. Grrrrrr!!!!
Word to the wise - This is not a trend worth partaking in.
Maybelline Lash Stiletto Ultimate Length Mascara
/I finally finished up my M.A.C mascara that I wasn't too fond of, and took a chance on Maybelline's Lash Stiletto Ultimate Length Mascara. I am really, really liking it. There are many different formulas out there that give a variety of results. For me, I tend to like mascaras that lengthen and separate. This one does just that, and I recommend it to anyone looking for that outcome.
