Liz Claiborne, the founder of Liz Claiborne Inc. died on Tuesday at the New York Presbyterian Hospital after a longtime bout with cancer. The fashion designer was 78.

Born in Brussels, Belgium, and raised in New Orleans, Claiborne entered the fashion business at 21 when her sketch for a woman’s coat won a design competition sponsored by Harper’s Bazaar. She worked as a designer for various companies for nearly 30 years before founding her label. Ms.Claiborne’s mix-and match clothing for working women was a new approach to dressing. Her clothes were stylish and affordable resulting in an instant hit. 

Claiborne’s company went public in 1981. By 1985, Liz Claiborne Inc. was known as the first company founded by a woman to be listed in the Fortune 500.

“In losing Liz Claiborne, we have not only lost the founder of our company, but an inspirational woman who revolutionized the fashion industry 30 years ago,” said McComb, CEO of Liz Claibrone Inc. in a statement. “Her commitment to style and design is ever present in our thinking and the way we work. We will remember Liz for her vision, her entrepreneurial spirit and her enduring compassion and generosity.”

Believe it or not, fashion has evolved to the extent that even world class tennis players are pouting their lips and saying “I have nothing to wear!” before they go on court. The premier players now demand both style and the latest fabric technology in their tennis apparel. Maria Sharapova, the princess of on court tennis fashion may not have won many tournaments but she has certainly made many opponents green with envy for sporting the latest trend and style. Many tennis stars like Daniels Hantuchova, The Williams sisters, Ana Ivanovic and Nicole Vaidisova are now emulating Maria’s on court fashion sense.

 

 

Even the leading sports apparel manufacturers such as Nike, adidas, Lacoste, and Diadora, acknowledged that womens tennis apparel are just as essential as their on court tennis skills. Hence, the services of the world’s top women tennis players are constantly in demand to showcase their latest tennis dresses and skirts. Adidas has teamed-up with clothing designer Stella McCartney, to allow rising WTA star Maria Kirilenko to sport the new designs. Nike is also doing equally well with its designer Serena Williams. If you ask me, whether it’s adidas, Nike or Diadora, each has their own favourite line of tennis wear that appeals to their audience.

  

 

It certainly cannot be denied that some people may have a passion for tennis, while others love fashion, and then there’s those who love tennis fashion!

I’ve never really been a fan of football but the hubby and many of my friends are avid fans of the sport. However, being an apparel fan, it is interesting to note that how the modern football uniform has evolved.

Today’s football uniforms are remarkably different than those from 5 or 10 years ago. You can distinctively notice the difference by just watching a “classic” college game on ESPN from the 90′s and compare the uniforms to those worn by today’s collegiate players. The old plain blue jersey with white numbers and plain white shorts are replaced by the following custom football uniform:

  • Functional, more comfortable fabrics.
  • Full length jerseys that tuck into the pants.
  • Tapered, form fitting patterns.
  • “Lineman’s Cut” jerseys that “hug” the body and arms.
  • Contrasting side and/or shoulder inserts.
  • Matching inserts on the pants.
  • Choice of sleeve length with or without rib cuffs.
  • Multi-color graphics, numbers, and neck plackets.

Football uniforms nowadays are also given the modern look in terms of decorations.  Regulations require that numbers, of a certain size, be applied to the front and back. It is a norm to see team name, player’s name, shoulder or “TV” numbers, sleeve stripes as well as sewn-on neck plackets added to the jerseys. Pants on the other hand, are generally decorated on the upper left or right leg. With so much emphasize on decorations, it certainly cannot be denied that football uniforms have gradually become fashionable too!

All I can say is that Thank Goodness I did not curl my hair. Firstly, I’ve been told that I looked OLD when I curl my hair. Secondly, if I did that during CNY, I’ll probably have to pay a huge sum to get them straightened back since straight hair is the trend now.

Here’s the latest on straight fringe:

The straight fringe can be a nice alternative for a simple look that still looks good. A fringe is another term for bangs and the straight fringe is as simple as you can get with the fringe coming straight down just over the eyebrows. The look goes great with straight hair or hair with some light waves. The straight fringe can fall straight down or be curled up a little to give a look with more volume. The most useful part of a straight fringe is the nice frame it creates for the facial area. The straight fringe gives the appearance of a more narrow face and even proportions, a great option for many facial shapes.

This is the pic of Jessica Alba’s latest hair style, straight fringe with straight hair, which I think looks gorgeous on her:

I am a person who have dry skin because I never bothered to mosturize until I I was in my mid 20’s. So, I’m sharing with you some info I’ve read…

Here are some reasons that causes dry skin:

  • cold weather and low humidity
  • central heating system
  • aging due to lower estrogen level and the fact that our skin do not produce as much oils
  • other reasons include dehydration, malnutrition, diabetes, eczema and low thyroid hormones

How to treat Dry Skin?

  1. If you use lukewarm water, do not take long showers or baths
  2. Apply moisturizer while skin is still damp to seal in the moisture
  3. Use mild soap like Dove and avoid perfumed soap
  4. If you could afford one, use a humidifier at home
  5. Avoid skin care products that contain alcohol
  6. Don’t wash your face too frequently
  7. Wear Sunscreen
  8. Use Moisturizers that contains emolients such as urea and mineral oils which can provide a barrier to keep moisture in and harmful agents out

A hair transplant is a surgical procedure which transfers a patient’s own hairs from a donor area to areas of the scalp that are undergoing hair loss or thinning. That means, you can cover up that bald spot with your own hair. Isn’t that a great option?

Nowadays, there are several different hair transplant techniques and results may vary with technique used. However, some of the best results obtained today use the technique of follicular unit grafting. A follicular unit is the term used to describe the natural groupings of one, two, three and occasionally four hairs. As this is how hair grows naturally in the scalp, follicular unit grafting often provides the most natural results.

Frankly for some people, loosing that bald spot may take years off their age and boost their confidence. If you are having the same dilemma, do click on the above link for more information.
