A trend that I think society is building up to be ready for and going to see a lot more is Futuristic clothing. It is a particular imagined vision of the clothing that might be worn in the distant future, typically found in science fiction novels and science fiction films of the 1940s onwards, Also Designers are starting to produce more futuristic clothing on the runways, and celebrity lady gaga tends to dress a little out there and has a wide fan base that looks up to her. The garments envisioned have most commonly been either one-piece garments, skin-tight garments, or both, typically ending up looking like either overalls or leotards, often worn together with plastic boots. In many cases, there is an assumption that the clothing of the future will be highly uniform.
The cliche of futuristic clothing has now become part of the idea of retro-futurism. Futuristic fashion plays on these now-hackneyed stereotypes, and recycles them as elements into the creation of real-world clothing fashions. In 2011 I think we can expect less bland and more quality taking consideration we are slowly coming out of the economic fall down that recently is passing in the last year. There will be fewer indulgences and more statement pieces. Fashion editor and Glamour magazine writer Brooke Kelly has said, “For the last 20 years, fashion has reviewed the times of past, decade by decade, and what we are seeing now is a combination of different eras into one complete look. Future fashion is a style beyond anything we’ve yet dared to wear, and it’s going to be a trend setter’s paradise.”
Sponsored snowboarder friend James Neville Birthday was this weekend. So I had decided to make my first trip up to celebrate and shred some pow. Considering I was a busy gal all weekend I only took a few pics with my iphone. Have a look at beautiful Whistler

I really enjoy this song and I have to share it with all of my readers. If you love the 60’s and 70’s you will love the styling of this video as much as I do, not to mention how gorgeous Kid Cudi already is but he’s even nicer to look at when he is dressed up like Jimi Hendrix.
Ever have chapped or just really dry lips ? well there is a cure for it. Take a tootbrush run it under water or make sure your lips are wet and brush your lips gently. I feel that when your in the shower is the best time to do it, I like to do it that way but I guess you can do it over the sink if you wanted to. Also ever tease your hair and you just can not get it right to the root ? well pamela anderson knows what’s up. Get a toothbrush and no not the one you brush your teeth with preferably a smaller bristle toothbrush and tease your roots with it, it works !

Gareth Pugh Bio
“We have to sell the dream before we can sell the clothes” says Gareth Pugh prior to his first woman’s wear show staged in Paris. Most would agree his cutting edge style is far from traditional. Known for his intricate geometric designs and out there pieces.
The British designer began his studies at City of Sunderland College and finished at Central St Martins in 2003. Afterward, he worked along side Rick Owens during an internship which really broadened his horizons, getting him on his way to becoming great. In his Spring Season 2009, inspired by Hamlet and the Elizabethan era, the models cascaded down the runway wearing black on the back and white on the front of their outfits; This represented escaping the dark and entering into a brighter future.
He absorbs his inspiration from the punk and gothic scenes, as well as video games; Uses leather frequently, in mostly black palettes. However an 80’s club style mixed with Klaus Nomi is evidently noticeable. In his most recent work, Pugh has released a much more versatile line that is luxurious, romantic, uses softer fabrics, and shades of grey. It is necessary for him to do this considering his past is artistic, costumed based, and theatrical. He wants to keep his image and be true to himself by being different, but knows that if he wants to sell, he has to compromise the consumer.
You can often read about Pugh in Dazed And Confused Magazine, Frame Magazine, and purchase his most recent line from http://www.forwardforward.com.
