Rihanna Loves Her Combat Boots

Posted by Tara Decoda on Jun 7, 2010 in 'Tis The Season, Celebs, Cheap & Chic, High-End, Shoes, Trends

The military trend is definitely the most popular trend this season, and I recently did a post on the cargo pants trend to prove just that. But of course, with all trends, there is always a certain star to pioneer it. Spearheading the combat boot sector of the military trend is Rihanna, rocking hers every chance she gets:

From the stage to the streets, whenever she gives the 6-inch stiletto a break, she always seem to turn to the combat boot. Now, don’t get me wrong, she didn’t invent or bring this style to the forefront! But her rocking it as frequently as she does definitely makes it a trend to take notice of. Whether you have hundreds to burn or just a couple dollars to spare, if you want in on this trend, FM got you! Read more…

Spring Fling: Blue's Cool's

Posted by Tara Decoda on Apr 14, 2010 in 'Tis The Season, Celebs, Cheap & Chic, High-End, Trend Alert

Blue, my favorite color in the world. Well, maybe not all shades of blue but definitely royal blue! Because after all, I’m royalty… Don’t you agree? Nevermind. *Kanye shrug*

Last Spring, celebs like Rihanna, Beyonce, Ciara, Kim Kardashian and others helped bring denim jackets back to the forefront, and with H&M’s new blue collection it just proves that it hasn’t gone anywhere! Not only denim, but the complex shades of blue as well. I am a huge fan of the denim jacket and of the color blue period, and have picked out a few of my favorite blue things.

It’s time to put back up the cute trench coats and motorcycle jackets, and pull out the cold weather coats!
