CLOTHES MAKE THE MAN; Matt Tho

THERE comes a time, the Bible tells us, when we have to put away childish things.

Replica Chloe

It also tells us lots of other things apparently but for the purpose of this column, lets just concentrate on that one.

I only bring it up because my own time of putting away said childish things seems to have crept up on me pretty unexpectedly this week.

It happened when I was buying winter shoes, not normally something I do but it's a decision that was thrust upon me this year, all my other footwear having developed what I believe the cobbling fraternity refer to as holes.

The only shoes I had without said holes in the bottom were a pair of tasselled loafers, and they had holes in the top thanks to their perforated uppers.

Anyway, as I was browsing the racks of my local boot-ique, I made a snap decision. "I am never," I thought, "going to wear trainers ever again. Or, come to that, T-shirts."

Now, I've got nothing against the humble T-shirt. Many people have made it look very good. From Marlon Brando's plain white undershirt to Roxy Music affiliate Anthony Price's cap-sleeved number which took the garment as close to being decadent as it's possible to go, it's a perfectly acceptable thing to wear. Unless it's one of those horrible slogan numbers, or something with a cartoon character on, or a band which has been heard of by more than five people.

It just dawned on me that I hadn't really worn T-shirts very much outside my house for a while, so why not make it kind of my "thing"? The same went for the shoes. I only have one pair of trainers that gets any sort of wear, that being a very tatty set of Converse Number Ones and they're basically Nikes and have been for several years since that corporate buyout happened.

Since I was phasing out my holey shoes, why not replace them with something a bit more adult? Like a nice brogue, for example. Granted, they do make you look a bit like a Mr Man, but hey, as long as it's not "Mr Unfashionable", or "Mr Really Rubbish Shoes", then who cares? After I'd made this decision, I felt fired up. I felt more alive than I had in weeks. Especially when I realised it meant an opportunity to acquire more stuff, which always makes me feel important.

That was when I realised there might be something more to the situation than I first thought.

If I was being honest with myself, the decision to dump the T-shirts probably had very little to do with fashion. This is where the quote from the intro comes in. Clever, eh? Getting all psychological like, I can trace the roots of this T-shirt/shoe thing back to the seismic impact of my last birthday, which happened two months ago now. The tremors of ageing - and no I'm not going to tell you the number - are still being felt. If anything, the aftershocks are more devastating than the quake.

Quite frankly, it made me realise that you'd get bored of anything after more than a couple of decades, even - or perhaps especially - yourself. Changing the way you dress is probably the easiest way of freshening up a tired Fake Balenciaga Handbags persona, short of doing anything that takes real effort like getting a tattoo, giving up drinking, really interrogating your soul or something dull and rewarding like that.

Anyway, quite apart from the existential angst, my birthday made me realise things rapidly seem to be progressing towards me having to become a grown up. Dressing in a more grown up fashion is inevitably a corollary of that.

Classic look to beat the crunc

That's the word from the bosses at Business Wardrobe - the Cleckheaton-based online boutique set up by entrepreneurs Jane Dawson, Claire Crabtree and Paul Hebden.

Sales of classic items such as white shirts, grey suits and black dresses were most popular with the feedback from customers suggesting that these are viewed as an investment.

IWC Replica Watch



The company revealed that spending hard earned money on a wardrobe item that can be worn year round and never dates is preferable to a trend piece that will only last for one season.

Instead, business women are opting for staple pieces and then using shoes, bags or jewellery to make the outfit their own, accessorising according to the Damier azur Replica Handbags seasons latest trends.

Director of Business Wardrobe Jane Dawson said: "It has been interesting to see how the economic climate has changed shopping habits.

"Investing in classic pieces such as a beautifully tailored suit that will last for years has become the priority for business women.

"Our site offers this at the click of a button, taking the hassle out of shopping
embroidered patches by providing a 'one stop shop' for women's office wear. "

Cat Power

Athletic footwear brand Puma digs deeper into its rich heritage and recently launched its Archived Fall 2009 collection. Like the enigmatic cat that inspired its name and logo, the new shoes and apparel collection is not just a mere store of oldies but goodies but are, in fact, re-issued cult classics that have been updated with bold colors inspired by the passion and exuberance of South Africa, venue of the 2010 World Cup where Puma will be a prominent fixture.As worn and currently endorsed by the current breed of cutting-edge musical talents in Imago, Camerawalls, Sleepwalk Circus, Drip, Taken by Cars and 2008 and 2009 NU 107 Rock Awards Artist of the Year winners Pupil and Updharmadown (who all brought the full house down at the Mag:Net launch at Bonifacio High Street with spirited performances), each style comes with a distinctive look, feel, and tone that reflect their respective legendary status.The Cabana Racer, for Hermes Replica instance, was a classic lightweight running shoe that was first introduced in 1981.

The new Cabana Racer II comes with a padded nylon upper and a multi-colored EVA midsole. Still light as a feather, the update provides vintage running with a fresh, new twist.One of the most famous of Puma sneakers, the suede-based Clyde was worn in the early 1970’s by basketball hero Walt “Clyde” Frazier of the New York Knicks, who obviously inspired its name. With colors and print inspiration from Africa, the new Clyde should continue to reinforce its rep as the first non-canvas basketball shoe with streetwear staying power.Disc Blaze Days is a reintroduction of the Casting Bracelet displays 1992 groundbreaking Puma style that first housed the unique Disc system. The new iterations come in a more subtle combination of black and glacier gray as well as the more attention-grabbing fuchsia, black, and sweet grape. And then, there’s the Hawaii XT, a re-engineered sleek runner that captures a low-profile look unique to Puma. This execution features pearlized leather overlays, and tonal floral print on canvas. Yes, it’s also available in a mix of vibrant colorways.Standouts among the non-sneakers include the GripBag, inspired by Africa United and distinguished by a repaired rope handle to give it that lived-in look as well as a cracked logo on the front representing a homage to Africa’s parched earth—a signature accessory designed to withstand the test of time. There are plaid shirts and there are plaid shirts. But what sets the Puma traditional plaid shirt from the rest of the pack is the worn fabric and ladders that give it a unique vintage look and feel. Dad’s shirt from college? Look closer again. While you’re at it, give a second look to Puma’s ribbon-red Edition Windbreaker inspired by the classic track jackets from the ‘70s. This stylishly retro hoodie features debossed print details on the top panel, mesh lining and circular knit rib hem and cuffs.  What’s more, the jacket uses shoe laces for the draw cords on the hood, a nice Puma touch. These and more were all introduced during the Archive Uncovered launch that was also graced by the likes of VJ Monica, Gaby de la Merced, Tippi and Ito Ocampo, JM Rodriguez
embroidered patches and designer Kate Torralba.

Liven up the party with a litt

Don't let the ball falling from Times Square be the only shiny thing people notice this New Year's Eve.

You, too, can incorporate sparkle into your ring-in-the-new- decade celebration.

"Sequins, crystals, beads, tassels, anything that sparkles -- it's all about piling on the glamour this holiday season," says Suzanne Mauro, a stylist accredited by the Association of Image Consultants International.

Shimmer and shine with items ranging from sparkly shoes by Stuart Weitzman to a fedora decorated with festive garland from White House Black Market. Even your makeup can have some glam.

Shimmer powder is the great finishing touch to any holiday outfit, says Estee Lauder global makeup stylist Rick DiCecca. When choosing a shimmer powder, look for softer, smaller flecks of shimmer -- not glitter -- to avoid looking like a disco ball, he says.

"Dust softly on your cheekbones and temples for a shimmering glow that catches the light and accentuates your features," DiCecca says. "If you are wearing earrings that you want to highlight, apply a little to your earlobes before you put the earrings on to add a little high-shine drama. The same can go for a beautiful necklace: Sweep shimmer powder over your collarbones and shoulders to highlight those jewels. For added glamour on the eyes, apply the center color on the brow bone and in the center of the lid for a pop of sparkle that will open up the eyes."

Don't be afraid to go a little wild to welcome 2010, say representatives of the Jemma Kidd Makeup School in New York. The inspiration is the heady days of disco, Studio 54 and 1970s glam rock, but toned down for a more refined interpretation. Use a synthetic brush to apply beige-gold creme eye shadow from the upper lash line to the socket crease, and layer with gold glitter.

Now you are ready to get dressed for the soiree.

At Jupe boutique in the South Side, you'll find embellishments on everything from a tank to a skirt to a dress.

"Each piece is dressy enough to stand out without having to add any additional sparkle," says Emily Funk, manager of Jupe. "Take the tank and wear it with jeans or wear a basic top with the skirt, and you could add some jewelry to the dress because the top is plain. Wearing something with sequins is great for New Year's Eve because it is a fun time of the year, and your outfit will be fun, too."

Making your shoes the focal point can add pop to an otherwise basic ensemble to ensure you're party-ready.

"Patents and metallics are great for adding glam," says Paola Venturi, Via Spiga's lead designer and creative director. "The right pair can be appropriate for multiple holiday occasions, from party- hopping with girlfriends to working the room at your office gathering, to meeting your significant other's family."

A sequin blazer works for the trendy woman, says Patricia Clyne, vice president of design for Doncaster, a luxury brand sold through consultants.

"Sequin pieces are great for holiday," Clyne says. "They are great statement pieces and add to the look for that special occasion."

Sequins are everywhere, says Erin Sumwalt, fashion market director for InStyle magazine, which recently featured "dark sparkle" -- sequins on dark pieces, including leather. Tuxedo blazers with embellishments and sequin dresses work with no additional accessorizing, ...
