No lace, whatsoever, but I like a bit of sparkle. I want strapless of course and as for the colour, I want it to be dark ruby," Angela says, conceitedly. Demanding much? I mean, it's nice to know exactly what you…

You gotta give Melania Trump credit for being glam no matter the occasion. First Lady Trump decked the halls and trimmed the White House tree wearing a designer label coat indoors. Melania ushered in the Christmas season and shared several pictures of her looking jolly and ready to spread holiday joy. As the holiday lyrics go, "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas." However, as one person quipped, Melania Trump must have thought it was snowing inside the White House when she wore her coat inside…

"Now.. Why should you get the job? I mean, look at your clothes. Those are unacceptable in the fashion industry." "Ugh... I thought this was a good outfit." I stutter. "No, that is a pile of black and white. You should be wearing dresses and heels. Not a white jacket and boots."So I look at my shoes. "Sorry?" I question. Alistar looks at me. "But, you will have to do." He hands me a packet. I open it and it has the rules of the job. 1) Always do as Liza York says. 2) Never get on the wrong…

However, upon reflection, I suppose this has alot to do with how I was brought up as well. “Make sure your rooms are clean before people come. You don’t want them thinking you live in a pigs sty” my mother would say before we had any guests over. This dress practice log feels almost similar; except that in this case, there are no physical…

of her character. The decision of only having her change into multiple dresses highlighted her as important, furthering the idea of her being potent. In the first episode Clymnestra was dressed in Greek clothing, a rusty red, revealing floor length dress. She was robed in the color twice, in the first and second episode. The choices of dressing her in red, a vibrant color associated with courage, anger, malice, wrath, love and power makes her stand out form the rest of the characters. The first…

Some may think due to no jobs or money that American citizens could not dress like they used to in the twenties. That was a lie.
