Ciao

Style Spotter is off and out to sister country United Kingdom and then off to Amsterdam. But I promise to bring you great pics and wonderful fashion from abroad. Stay tuned!

Only an EFFIN' Fashionista

Only an effin' fashionista like Naomi Campbell could be found guilty of a crime and look fabulous serving her community service sentence. Check out the photos below of Ms. Campbell and please take note. No matter how much trouble one may be in, one must always look fierce!

DAY ONE

On Naomi's first day she was fashionable, but understated wearing a black swing trench and black lace up boots.

DAY TWO, THREE and FOUR

Second, third and fourth days Naomi showed that she was ready to work. Ready to work her very own catwalk! Her looks maintain her fierce attitude without compromising the task at hand.

FIFTH DAY

The showstopper. Now this is how you end what could have been a very embarrassing moment in one's life. You look absolutely breathe taking. Ms. Campbell looked stunning in a silver gown, with the top trend of the season, a corset belt wrapped around her tiny waist. Perfection.

Lovely Lady of the Day

Today's Pretty Lady of the Day is none other than Kelly Rowland. I must say I am so very proud of Ms. Rowland being one third of a superstar girl group and living in the shadow of beautiful Beyonce, I am sure was never easy, but Rowland pulls it off with such ease that her beauty tends to radiate from within and shines outwardly.

And while her look has changed throughout the years from short red-black hair to long jet back hair, Rowland's smile seem to stay with her where ever she goes

"Ms. Kelly," the stars sophomore album titles, drops June 26th.

The Very First Day of Spring

Spring has finally arrived, which means, we are only a hop, skip and a twirl away from packing closets with spring's latest trends. So get your fashion diaries out, check off items on your wish list and let's get to the trends!



LWD


Due to it's slimming effect, the little black dress is still the best staple for day and night, but the little white dress (lwd) is this season favorite choice and helps you to stand out in a sea of muted earth toned colors. Like the black dress, the white dress can be worn in many different styles. Ruffles, lace, sheer or constructed, slip on the white dress and get ready to be noticed!



COLOR



Blue Hues and Yellow Coloring You can not be in spring and not wear something that is bright and full of color. This year's colors are blue and yellow, to be worn together or separately. The blue hues help to bring out any eye color. And yellow looks brilliant on brown, tanned skin.



BLACK AND WHITE PRINTS


Black and White prints are as close and as cool as Stevie Wonder and Frank Sinatra's hit Ebony and Ivory. Most of the prints stay in breezy, flowery shapes. And because of the stark contrast any shape will most definitely pop!

SHUT UP AND BE PRETTY

Feel pretty, be pretty and have this season's biggest trend, the pretty dress. What makes these dresses so delightful are the flowers that adorn them, which can make one feel as if they are in a botanical garden. Tulle is shaped and formed like flowers, big huge flower prints cover simple dresses and flower beds and silk blossoms make any constructed dress or gown much softer.

METALICA

Metallic, silver bronze or gold, is one trend that Style Spotter believes will forever come and go. When buying metallic please try not to buy a bright metallic that will burn others' eyes as you walk down the street in the spring sun. Soften the glare by wearing a muted metallic.

VOLUME

Volume is no longer just for your hair but for dresses, skirts, shirts and even pants! Tiers of fabrics make any clothing item appear to have volumes and with pants think MC Hammer pants or Egyptian pants with lots of volume between your legs.

LIKE, TOTALLY AWESOME

Style-Spotter has infinity for anything 80s. And this season the 80's once again makes a come back. Bandage minis, fluorescent dresses and anything punk rock will do!

FUTURISTIC

Funny how the 80's and the futuristic clothing are two big trends in one season. This season seems as if designers studied Star Wars. C-3PO gold leggings, Darth Vader-esque patent leather coats and capes and plastic card cut out formed into a cocktail dress keep you light years ahead of the rest.

SKINNY OUT - CHUNKY IN

Skinny heels are so not necessary for this spring. Chunky thick heals, platforms, wedges are so great and comfortable.

So have fun with the pretty, far out, totally awesome big trends of spring!

SJP Gets "Bitten" for Cheap

Sarah Jessica Parker is known for her high-end clothing. She is one of the biggest style icons in America today. She probably has every couture and ready-to-wear designer fashionable hanging on iron hangers in her 5 million dollar brownstone in New York City.

So who would have thought that the style icon would come out with a very low-end line with everything being $20 or less? Do they still make clothes that affordable? Style Spotter finds it very interesting and somewhat humorous that the woman known for expensive, fabulous clothing would come out with a line geared towards, dare we say... poor people! Gasp!

Her clothes-for-everyone line, called "Bitten" is a joint venture with mall-based collegiate wear seller Steve & Barry's. The label's launch is June 7.

Parker sought out Steve & Barry's after learning of the company's philosophy to offer high-quality merchandise at the lowest possible prices.

"Women should be able to wear great clothes and not lie in bed at night feeling guilty about how much money they've spent," Parker said in a statement.

The tagline for the collection reads: "Fashion is not a luxury, it's a right."

The company said the label will consist of about 500 clothing items and accessories, including knit shirts, wool and cashmere sweaters, dresses, lingerie, jeans, jewelry and footwear.

Very interesting... cashmere for $20? Please stay tuned...

The "It" Bag

Move over "It" Girls. Go and eat something! There is a new "It" in Hollywood and it's called the Louis Vuitton Icon bag.

The bag is a montage of all of the past iconic Louie bags.

With only four made this bag is obviously extremely hard to get your hands on, even for Kimora Lee Simmons, who is said to have the largest Louis Vuitton bag collection.

Priced at $46,000 who will Style Spotter spot with this bag. Is it you?

Fashion Stops For No One, Not Even Community Service

Naomi Campbell was spotted leaving London's Heathrow Airport looking fresh and fabulous! But can she maintain her style as she has recently been sentenced to mop the floors of New York’s Sanitation Department?

The fashionista was found guilty of throwing her Swarovski crystlized phone at her maid, Ana Scolavino. Campbell will now pay for her mean-ness by adorning an orange New York City sanitation vest from spring's 2007 garbage route line!

With workman's boots in tow, Style Spotter is sure Ms. Campbell will maintain her iconic style. However, you may never know since the public is not allowed to witness her embarrassment as she helps New York sanitation workers keep their floors as spotless as a Michael Kors dress.

M by Madonna

Madonna at the UK H&M launch party
H&M has done it again! The low-end priced with high-end looks chain store has hired Madonna to create a spring 2007 line titled M by Madonna. Madonna has worked with the store in the past to create a sports line, but this new line is much flirtier, stream lined and strong.

H&M asked the disco-pop queen to create a look that represented her timeless, but every changing style.

"I've made no secret of my love of fashion over the years. Working with Margareta and H&M was an exciting and new creative challenge for me. I'm really happy with the results and look forward to wearing 'M by Madonna' along with the rest of the world", concluded Madonna.

Style-Spotter as well looks forward to digging through racks of clothes, fighting with fellow shoppers and waiting in long dressing room lines this month in order to cope a dress or a pair of pants from the M by Madonna line. Vogue!

The Do

Eighties fashion has made a major comeback in 2006 and still continues to seep into 2007. Bell bottoms, high waist pants, off-the-shoulder sweaters, leggings and even plastic bracelets have made their way into today's fashion. But now 80s hairstyles are coming back in a major way. Celebs like Lauryn Hill and Mary J. bridge have decide to sport the 80s bob. Mary J. Blige recently rocked her's at a movie premiere. Style-Spotter thinks that this hairstyle is fresh. Not as a permanent look, but as something different. Blige switched up her look, took a risk and it works! But what do you think?

March Make-Over Madness

Heat up your curling irons, open those tracks of weave, smell that hair dye and get those scissors ready, March has become the make-over month.

Whether it's for a movie role/premiere or a new show, celebs must continuously update their look. A fast and easy way for anyone to alter their appearance is by changing your hair.

Lindsay Lohan has once again dyed her red hair blonde. After spending $400 and sitting in the hair colorists chair for more than two hours. Lohan emerged looking very much like her mother Dina! From chocolate brown, to strawberry red and now California blonde this chameleon continues to surprise us with her looks.


Star Jones did a complete makeover. Lost a few more pounds, colored her hair and got a fresh new cut. Long gone, (hopefully) are the skimpy outfits she wore to show off her figure. Say good-bye to the over the top bling. Star is fit and fabulous! The verdict is in... she looks great!

If you have any make-over stories please send them to Style-Spotter!

Lovely Lady of the Day

Kerry Washington is our Lovely Lady of the Day. Ms. Washington was spotted at the "I Think I love My Wife," L.A. movie premiere. She is one of the co-stars in the flick, which stars funnyman Chris Rock.

Washington wore a beautiful, vibrant yellow dress with black and white flowers detailed on the bottom half of the dress. Her hair was soft and her make-up was simple and gorgeous.

Lovely Lady Kerry shines like the sun! Her entire look is flawless!

NAACP AWARDS

The NAACP AWARDS was Friday, March 2nd. Fabulous colored people came out to the event to support their peers. Unfortunately the red carpet fashion was oh so YAWN. Celebs must be frightened of being on the worst dressed list because it seems that everyone is scared to take risks. Sometimes in fashion (and in life) one must take risks, cause a little stir, make people turn their heads, be fierce. Anyways, check out some of the prettier dresses!
