Evening Gowns

What comes to mind when you see a beautiful evening gown? ...for me it's the Red Carpet and that in turn symbolizes glamor, elegance and style. Celebs seem to be able pull off evening gowns at a host of events red carpet events like award shows, premieres and parties. But when it comes to us regular folk...you think 'what occasion could I possibly wear an evening gown to?'

I asked a bunch of friends a couple of questions one of which was...when was the last time they wore floor length gown and I bet most common answers on the street would be the same - 'at my wedding' or 'prom night!'. Another question I asked was that 'If

“Fashion is what you adopt when you don't know who you are.” - Quentin Crisp

you did put on an beautiful evening gown how would you feel?' the answers included 'Like a celebrity', 'like a diva', 'glamorous!' and 'sophisticated' . So why is it that we shy away from long evening dresses?? One friend said they're for movies stars and come at movie star prices! I agree that evening gowns can be extremely expensive...but there are affordable ones out there too some can cost less that a simple cocktail dress and if they make you feel good then why not? are we afraid to stand out?

Now I'm not suggesting that you don a floor length gown to a neighbors barbecue party or just anywhere to feel good but rather use those special occasions like an anniversary dinner or a fancy dinner to add that glamor and star quotient to you life! So what if no one else at the party is wearing one...Be a Diva I say! Go Glam!

Spring 2008 Trend: Dressed up Shorts

Keeping a Short Story Short!
Shorts are having their moment in the fashion spotlight this season. But these are not the casual styles you normally reserve for the gym or beach. Nor are they the denim Daisy Dukes that Jessica Simpson was sporting in her steamy "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'" music video. Made from luxe linens, crisp cottons and silk-lined wools, these shorts are turning up at parties, restaurants, offices and even the Red Carpet!

Here's Charlize Theron, Carmen Electra, Mandy Moore and Eva Longoria-Parker all rocking the shorts look!
Jennifer dons some shorts on a day Shopping! And Kate Moss is never too shy to show some leg!
