Lesson 11: Coat check?

When was the last time you went coat shopping?.... You don’t remember?..... That’s not a good sign.


The first thing people notice when you’re walking down the street or enter a building is your coat. So today I’m going to help you pick the hottest coats so you can be the center of attention in these cold season.


If you’re confused on what buy and what style will work for you. You can’t go wrong with a classic trench coat. They can create a very stylish look while still offering the comfort and warmth needed.


This vintage style trench has classic lines and the classical cool coloration; That will work with any outfit.




If you want to go for more of a trendy look try a Leather trench coat.  It’s stylish and it will give you an extra boost of confidence when walking into any room.




 These colorful pea coats are another perfect example of something spectacular to add to your wardrobe this season. The buttons, lapel, and pockets, give the jacket a strong look, while the bold colors give it a feminine touch.





















For an even more eye-catching style, choose bold prints.  You can go for a stripped print like Kim K. or animal print like Katie Holmes in this leopard print coat.  Prints like these can add just the right amount of sexiness to your outfit. 



So which ever style you choose, Keep in mind the right coat can make any outfit hot!.... Well not every out fit.

Lesson # 8: Halloween Chic

Great News!!! You can be whatever you what for Halloween. There are no restriction!! Yep, you're getting a free pass to dress your tackiest,  hot of a mess self.  But just remember someone will take a picture of you and they will NEVER let you forget how you looked on Halloween 2010. They'll post it on Facebook so the whole world will see.  Blaming it on the alcohol just won't cut it.  So I suggest you put a little effort into your look.  But no pressure!


Here's a couple interesting looks:



Now this is great for a guy because no one can see your face. And if you do something ridiculous at the party you can always say " It wasn't me!"




Ha! If you have a family, go for it... but remember what I told you about facebook! LOL!



Now Ladies if you want a sexy costume, go with a look like Heidi Klum:

Lesson # 7: How to wear Leggings

When worn correctly, leggings are are beautiful thing. They're fashionable and flattering, and not to mention comfortable as heck! Leggings to women are like tee shirts to guys; we can't get enough of 'em. But the problem is women just don't know how to wear leggings properly.  But we're here to change that right?

 Leggings are not jeans! People should never see your pikachu when wearing them. Never!  Leggings should be worn with a shirt or tunic that covers at least your hips.  If you want to wear a shorter top just put of jeans for everyone's sake. 

Never wear leggings with a tight shirt. It makes skinny girls look anorexia and big girl look, well bigger! You can take note of the way these ladies wear them.  They definitely got it right. 


 REMEMBER: You should always cover your ass, LITERALLY!

Lesson # 5: How Not to wear Leopard

Leopard is the one of the latest Fall fashion trends.  And it seems like everybody and their mother is trying to wear it.... Literally!

Note that when wearing such a bold print, you have to tone it down a little bit. OK A LOT!  If you already have a lot going on you don't need to put on leopard for that extra pop or you will burst.  Hence the pic above of the King of Pop's sister. Sorry babe, but you're Moded!!

For me, I love a good accessory piece, I love how these ladies carry a leopard bag for their pop of boldness.  Question is, Do you love it?

So how do you wear leopard the right way? You can take note from fashion tips on the Wendy Williams show this week.  Check It!  I'm sure you'll find very helpful tips to cure your leopard phobia.
