Flower Bomb: Essentials of wearing floral

Prints over prints over prints. We will never get tired of prints and they will never leave us too. The season we’ve seen the floral, art deco, paisley, jungle and even vegetables! Altuzarra.

During the medieval times, the eye found any surface in which a background was not distinguishable from the foreground and was disturbing.

Gentlemen suffer for fashion

Men on heels of about 4 inches are not so new! I would define it as a come back that is spreading in several wildly different milieus. The real matter is that the man-heel or “meel” is getting in males collective imagination as natural and accepted. The question is: are today women’s competitors men on stiletto heels?
