Shop Indie: Fave Things At Oak

Manish Arora
Eagle Leggings

Great by themselves with a top or as an add on under a cute dress, when too much black is just too much and you need some added pattern (which I love).

Black Pony Hair Patent Wedge

I love anything black pony, and I love , so this is the perfect combo. Also cute with colored tights, the hue will peak through the cutout and look ultra cute.

Anzevino & Florence
Courtney Dress

Can’t say enough about this dress. I actually don’t like , but this is adorable. A great way to feminize the oversized button up shirt, and looks quite comfy and warm for the winter.

The Way to Wear It: Sheer Jumpsuits

Just because rocked out the solid to sheer at ’s Spring 2009 show, doesn’t mean we all can. This photograph is a bit misleading…what on earth has she got on underneath the ? Could there be a bodysuit under there? Maybe a pair of boy-shorts? Nude lingerie? Sheer on the runway has become more and more acceptable, but I don’t know how the public would react to this with a view. So, how would you wear it?

After checking out Fashionista’s call for ideas on the way to wear this , I came across a reader comment that was spot on. . Duh! Why didn’t I think of that? Why not sport this awesome with a pair of slimming to balance out the airy flow of the sheer legs. Match a top base layer to the and you’re on your way to one hell of a knock-out look! 

 

Thanks STYLE and Fashionista!

Rihanna Commits More Fashion Crimes

Oh !?! How many times do we have to tell you that pleather spandex are NOT a fashion item, and wearing them as pants is just about the worse fashion crime that you can commit in my book. Also, what is with the acid wash denim jacket, did we just go back 20 years in fashion? Oh, and didn’t we catch you wearing the same pants (and boots) earlier this week? Yes we did, below.

Costume Dept Leggins


These deliciously tacky by Costume Dept. are so bad, they’re good. To those who are actually old enough to remember the era from whence they came, this was the kind of garment synonymous with crunchy hair, acrylic talons, spiked heels and New Jersey. But as far as most 80’s babies are concerned, this is just another addition to our schizophrenic wardrobe (and the perfect piece for that M.I.A. Halloween costume). The Hollywood-based brand offers a wide selection of that come in edgy, throwback prints, and metallic and lame`. Made of mostly flammable material, they also come with cheeky names like Gaudy Gold, Liquid Mercury, and Midnight Madam. Bootylicious girls beware…these are for skinny bitches only.

Would ya wear these, indies?

How To Wear Leggings (without looking like an American Apparel reject)

I’ll be honest. I really used to hate . I thought they looked ridiculous on most girls who used the glorified stockings as an alternative to pants.  Of course, with time, the testament of the eighties grew on me and I came to appreciate the thinner, American Apparel addicted silhouettes that were making down the streets of New York.

But how does the fashionably forward wear today, now that most of the city has adopted a pants-free attitude?

Here are some new ways to wear the fashion staple…

ADD SHINE - This season are going Lycra creating sleek, shark-skin shines that will add an extra bit of boom to your look.   The pictured above by The Row (The Olsens line) is the perfect look for the urbanite looking for a bit more attention and set you in a crowd all your own.  (On the model - The Row’s lambskin on cotton and Lycra and viscose T-shirt worn with Don the Verb’s wool coat. Rise Up’s organic cotton shirt and scarf; Tashkent by Cheyenne’s boots.)

THAT 70’s SHOW - The seventies meets the eighties as tie dye influences add flair to the bland legging.  WARNING: Engage this look with caution. We will call you a reject if it looks like members of The Doors splugged all over your legs. (On the model -  Blue Blood’s leather jacket, Mark and Estel’s cotton T-shirt and Gary Graham’s cotton . Low Luv by Erin Wasson necklace; Herve Lger by Max Azria boots.)

ZIP IT UP - Now your can make you look like you’ve just come off the set of a S&M film.  I’m really in love with this look so if any of you indies are rocking this, please send picts to saynt@fashionindie so that we can share it on the site. (On the model -  Brains on Fire’s cotton T-shirt and Superfine’s cotton and elastane jeans. Ksubi sunglasses; Don the Verb scarf; CC Skye clutch.)

LEATHER LOVERS - I can’t get over how awesome this looks. I’ve never been a fan of leather chaps on women, but in form the cowhide creates a look that is purely lux. (On the model - Miss Sixty’s cotton blazer, Mark and Estel’s cotton T-shirt and Blue Notch’s cotton and polyester . Body chain from Low Luv by Erin Wasson; clutch from The Jack Rabbit Collection; Silpada ring.)
