WELCOME

THE FASHION DADDY WELCOMES YOU!



This fashionable and stylish blog is a collage of creative fresh ideas, filled with educated opinions, packed with flexible suggestions, stuffed with a lot of sense of humor and most of all, it is a place where people who enjoy fashion and style can use it as a resource, a channel to let out their passions or frustrations, a virtual mechanism to influence others with individualism and creativity. Anyone can use this blog to break the monotony of your lives—to have a good laugh or to initiate a thought. And if your life feels monotonous spice it up with a tiara or a new belt or a hat. This blog is not supposed to be the fashion police [never] because who can compete with Joan Rivers. This blog is not a serious literary document; instead, it is a fun registry about what we like to wear, our personal style and a life that’s unique, fun and imaginative. WARNING: This blog is not your average and stereotypical blog, this blog offers honesty, choices, fun ideas and a good time. Criticism is welcomed. Cynicism is encouraged!

My three top picks of the week are:
Fruitful prints. The citrus print is a must have for Spring/Summer. Carefully accessorized with monochromatic jewelry this bold and refreshing print can be your juicy and sweet summer pick.
This juicy print will make you feel fresh. Stella McCartney.com
Lace. Lace is not for old church ladies anymore. Go borrow or steal your nana’s vintage lace blouse and pair it down with a great pair of flats to go around town—who said you were a dud? Avoid the neon colors but say yes to white, black and nude shades of this suddenly not so Victorian trend.

Who said lace was for old ladies? They are crazy.

Sun kissed or sun faded clothes that are worth wearing. I’m not saying pull out your old college clothes and put them on, no. I’m suggesting clothes that remind you of the summer you spent in Maine or the trip you took to Baja. You can run your new clothes through the washing machine to achieve the effect but why when you can find them at your nearest vintage store or mall?

Sun faded clothes are hot this summer. J.Crew top and pants/J.Crew.com

My three bottom picks of the week are:
Khaki pants for men. They are out of style, out of this planet. Even one of the great fashion retailers refuses to reinvent this American classic. Give it another year or two. Maybe in three they’ll come back. Adieu!

Kiss your khaki pants good-bye unless...
Gap.com

Rubber boots. Put them away and bring them out in November. Nobody should be caught wearing rubber boots unless you’re working for the Sanitation Department. This morning I saw a young woman (20ish) wearing a pair of pink rubber boots with a denim skirt up to her half moon and a navy blue turtleneck sweater and a pearl necklace. The pearls were the size of gumballs. Now that’s brave.

Throw them out or put them away until next winter. Walmart.com

Winning! I’m sick of it. Enough already.
