New Year - New You - New Style

What did you SEE this New Year's Eve?  We saw some glitter and shiny stuff out there at the parties and on the streets celebrating.  And we saw a LOT of warm coats and sweaters.  But let's talk IMMEDIATE trends for 2011 because you want to walk out the door TOMORROW looking great and fashionable but not broke!

I was looking at the collections before New Year's Eve and one dynamic designer really stood out to me:  Yotom Soloman  His website can be found at http://www.yotamsolomon.com
Chic and traditional with a twist of futuristic, young Israeli-born designer Yotam Solomon has a knack for creating very modern, sexy, feminine silhouettes. 


It is so fun to watch this designer’s diverse assortment of add-ons to his garments. For instance, the gray short sleeveless dress with front pockets, high-waisted shorts with front zippers, strapless cocktail dress filled with stone cut-outs, and mini dress with overlay panels.

British Vogue says Yotam Solomon's collection "reminds audiences that showmanship and high-fashion are in fact still intact in California."  Yotam's Spring Summer 2011 collection was inspired by the Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill. "I design around subjects that are important to me so it was natural to design around the Oil Spill. These days it's difficult to bring people a meaningful message without either scaring them or losing their interest..."  One of his goals is to demonstrate that by teaming together we can save wild life and maintain an evergreen planet  while creating beauty during hard times.

The New Year is a new beginning and it is an opportunity for us to renew our outlook and our look.  Take a deep breath and make a splash in fashion.  Think big hair, great make-up, accenting your assets and hiding your flaws (come on, we ALL have flaws its just that some of us are better at hiding them then others!).
