To all of my fashionistas out there! Keep your eyes out for metallic pieces and be the first to jump on this latest trend. This after hour glam will take your style to the next level. Lately we have been seeing a lot of 80’s style trends in many forms and this metallic trend is also inspired from this era. With the shoulder pads and mini-dresses already a hot trend the metallic just adds that perfect twist for a great 80’s flashback. These look may be inspired from the 80’s but with the cuts and design of today revamped the look of the past and made it bold and elegant.

Sheer Alert!

Finally the sheer trends of the runways have hit the mainstream! We are starting to see more types of sheer pieces from blouses to dresses and semi-sheer to just plain sheer. Here in Sunny California we are breaking records highs of 108°(+) for the first week of fall, so we are all for the loose and breezy styles. If you’re located in a cooler climates, don’t worry, layering this style is so easy and will look good however you plan to do it. When wearing sheer, remember keep it classy and keep it simple. If trying this look for the first time, add a nude bra but if you’re daring add a flirty lace bra to play up the trend.

RiRi's "What's My Name?" Music Video

Look out Madonna! RiRi's fashionista ways will bump Madonna’s 80’s style to the side and has even given a funky-fresh twist seen here in her video shoot, yet to set a release date. Rihanna shot her ‘What’s My Name?’ music video in NYC on September 26, 2010 in her longer bright red locks. Looking fantastic as always with a bright red mesh hair bow, black and white bolero, shorts trimmed with bright colors layer on top of shorts net stockings, and camel oxford paired with orange socks. I can see it already; this will become the next iconic style and will inspire many. Her sexy punk rock style has made such a big impact and will continue to encourage others to step out of our comfort zone and create an individualistic style of their own.

Welcome Fall 2010

September 21, 2010, it’s farewell to summer because fall is officially here. We welcome fall with open arms and all that comes with the season. With fall fashion in full spring we need to look the part from style trends to the polish on your finger tips. Here are a few things to remember when dressing the part. Fall carries summer into winter so warm weather may still be lingering but the days are also shorter and night creeps up on you earlier so think layers. Finally, as the weather permits, we can start pulling out our military inspire jacket and continue this trend throughout fall and into winter. Also, start stocking up on over the knee boots and large saddlebags to play up your fall style. Play with darker hues when polishing your nails but try a dark blue instead of the normal deep reds. Tie up this entire look from head to toe by adding playful waves to your hair.

Mesh Madness

Excite your fashion senses and take your style up a notch with mesh dresses. Spice it up with cutout dresses substituted with semi-sheer mesh. Past trends had everything hanging out with plunging neckline and high slits. With mesh dresses we can still keep it conservative and saucy at the same time. This sultry mesh style leaves plenty to the imagination and the fashion forward concept of semi-sheer mesh keeps things interesting.

At Urbanog.com we have a wide selection of this mesh madness. Seen below are just a few of our mesh dresses, search our dress collection to satisfy all of your mesh needs.

Heels Instead of Flats

Mission of the week: Adding a pair of heels to your everyday outfit. This is an easy one; just stepping into a pair of heels instead of your everyday flats can make a huge difference. Usually when you got your hair in a messy bun, a plain shirt, old skinny jeans paired with flats, you’re ready to go buy groceries. Who would think adding a pair of pumps to this outfit would give you a Casual Friday look. So before you step out in anything less then pumps, remember there is no need to spend extra time to get dolled up. All it takes is a pair of heels to tie your outfit together.

Rastafarian Colors

Rasta colors are so vibrant and playful but not enough people dare to play with these bold greens, yellows and reds. Gwen Stefani has been a big fan of rastafari colors for a very long time and has made it apart of her personal style. It’s so easy to incorporate this trend into your look even if you do not have main pieces, just with add-on pieces like hats, purses, and shoes, you will be well on your way to have your rastafarian style.

Nude Stiletto

Attention everyone… nude is the new black! Instead of throwing on a pair of black stiletto to finish your bright colorful outfit, try slipping into a pair of nude heels. This color will keep the focus on your outfit but will have them breaking their neck to check out the heels you’re walking on. Not only will a nude pair of pump have them check you out from head to toe, but will elongate your legs. Who doesn’t want longer legs? When shopping for your nude pair, keep in mind that nude doesn’t mean beige. Make sure you find a pair that is close to your natural skin tone to give the illusion that you do not have shoes on at all. This will keep them curious about the kicks on your feet and just like a magnet their eyes will always be drawn back to you.

Corduroys Skinny Leggings

Corduroys are back! Remember these comfy cords that you where always caught in all day long? Well, they have returned looking sleeker then the sloppy loose pants we have embedded in our memories. Seasons after season leggings and skinny pants have such a big impact to the fashion surrounding us. From regular leggings to jeggings and now corduroy leggings these options are endless. This tight style hugs your every curve displaying your charming silhouette and making them a perfect item to pair with all of your fall boots and booties.
