Manically Vivienne

Ladies ........Vivienne Westwood's new Spring/Summer 2010 Collection  Anglomania, is on fire!!! There is something for you regardless of what your style philosophy is.  Okay, so you have a little more meat , you can opt for the wide legged, sword pants. Anglomania  revives the little girl in all of us, you know the part of us that loves playing dress up. What! more could any red blood fashionista ask for ? Flirty minis, lots of ruffles, wide legged pants, layered tulle skirts, lots of drapery detail on most of the items. Spring is a time for renewal, regrowth and it's obvious Vivienne authentically understands the significance of rebirth.

We are loving the playfulness of this line , especially knot detail  and drapery on many of the items.

Ijinle Collection by WeWe Clothing

I love Africa and I am super happy Ankara is making a comeback and a fierce one at that. WeWe Clothing, a relatively young fashion house, specializing in bohemian clothing for the most precious in every society, the WeWe's pronounced " weh-weh", a yoruba term meaning " Little Ones" , has just unveiled its long anticipated collection, the Ijinle Collection which means " roots " . Wow, if this is what it means to be chic, afrocentric chic, then we are in good company.

What I love about this line is head designer/owner Folake Kuye Huntoon's immense love for designing precious, unique, African-inspired line, any fashion forward parent would undoubtedly want their "pekin", (means "small child" in pidgin english)/child to be seen in .

Skip the daily Target routine, and opt for at least one WeWe Clothing  item for your son , daughter, niece, or nephew and within 24 hours , he or she will be branded fashion icon by his or her peers.
WeWe's clientele include actress Marcia Cross, Julia Roberts, Halle Berry , and ofcourse every other cool mom who knows what it really means to pass on their awesome style 6th sense to their children.

Ijinle Collection consists of harem pants, colorful tunics, Kimono dresses, and ofcourse some basic Tee's for your WeWe. The most cool part, Ijinle collection is recession friendly . For under $20 you can add a WeWe Clothing design to your son or daughter's closet .

 Ijinle collection consists of timeless designs, made with the best materials . Your son or daughter can pass it on to his or her younger siblings. MAKEUNATELLAM strongly recommends shopping WeWe Clothing. Your "weh-weh" will thank you for it .

Dress me in Stella

Stella McCartney Silk Cotton Rai Dress

You know what I love about Stella McCartney ? Her organic talent. This Silk Cotton Rai Dress is expertly tailored.  Check out the sharp cuff details in the bust area of this simple and elegant dress. You can easily wear this to the office by adding a blazer to this piece.

OMG! should I just leave it there? Never! MakeUnaTellAm brings not only the most aesthetically pleasing pieces right at your door step , but  also the most unique. His name is Juanjo Oliva, a Parson's School of Design graduate, the mastermind behind this stunning ankara collection at Madrid Fashion Week.

“Elegance is deeply personal and pertains to individuals who incorporate tolerance, dignity, intelligence and, what is most important, sensitivity,”--Juanjo Oliva

PUCCI me happy.

This screams sex. sex..the feather detail certainly turns up the volume .

How do you manage to get us so well Viv ?

okay, Vivienne Westwood is simply AWEsome!!! This is a woman who, I can only imagine, still  has the most brilliant designs in brain . Her creative inspiration seems limitless. I love layers. Always have. I love place my personal stamp on my oufits. Sometimes, I even use my skirts as a tub tops. I wear skirts over my jeans, shorts or even on another skirt. You get the point, fashion for me is a very emotional thing.

Here's a peek at her Fall/Winter 2010 collection. Bold, Organic, brilliant off-shoulder printed sweaters, print/ knitted stocking. OMG. .mmmmm. we love. This gets the Boho stamp of approval.

sex appeal should always be organic.
