These days, it seems to be a popular trend in Hollywood to design your own handbags, shoes and clothing lines. Some of the lines created are simply stunning. Many of these accessories have become staples on the stars as well as the everyday woman with whom which most of us can relate. Some of them have priced their clothing and accessory lines such that we can all enjoy them, while others have maintained the designer price tag along with their designer, celebrity status.
One celeb-turned-designer that we all know, love and mostly can afford is Jessica Simpson. Her shoes have become so popular that her stunning heels are a mainstay in most large department stores. One of the best features of her stilettos is that many of the styles have a hidden platform, which adds even more height, as well as comfort, to the instep and ball of your foot. Her line has a variety of delicious, glossy, solid colors to choose from as well as some sexy faux prints you will instantly love. These are shoes that the everyday lady can afford, with prices coming in at under one hundred dollars a pair.
Other stars that have followed the shoe-designing trend are Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas and Carlos Santana. Both of these celebrities, along with other entrepreneur designers, have created beautiful looks for an affordable price. Both Fergie and Santana’s lines fall in the $100.00 to $200.00 range. Similar to Jessica Simpson, their shoes tend to be sexy, but that is where the similarities end. Carlos Santana creates heels that are truly feminine, with skinny spikes, bold animal prints, and metal tips. Fergie, on the other hand, creates a line that mimics her traditional bold style on stage, but with a more androgynous edge. Her line offers a variety of thick straps and gladiator-type sandals, as well as hard wedges and chunkier heels.
As a celebrity-turned-designer, Gwen Stefani is one woman who can stand tall and proud from all of her accomplishments. Originally known as a musical icon, she has recently created a line of handbags that rival the top bag designers in beauty. Her handbag line, called Love.Angel.Music.Baby or L.A.M.B., is seen being used by the designer herself as well as on the arms of many of the rich and famous. Lately, her large, red leather Donington satchel is appearing everywhere. Her line is moderately priced, in the $300.00 to $500.00 range as an average. You can also find her handbags in finer department stores such as Bloomingdale’s. Gwen Stefani has also taken to designing shoes along with her handbag and clothing line, which are predicted to be just as big of a hit as her handbags.
The best shoes for this spring season are less obvious than last year’s models. Rather than chunky and clunky, this spring promises fine fabrics and lovely lines. Some of the finer examples, of course, can be seen by the likes of Christian Louboutin and Jimmy Choo, in beautiful slingbacks made from patent leather as soft as butter. However, even the snakeskin prints this season are elegant and sophisticated as opposed to rock-girl glamorous.
Along with the ultra-soft leathers and snakeskins, you will also find plenty of texture this season. Everything from the skins of various reptiles to raffia and wood is making its way back onto the street, the runway, the dance floor and the board room. Varying textures on the same shoe also seems to be a popular trend this year. Options such as a striking heel that is raffia-wrapped with the instep and toe in a soft patent is an uncommon combination that is definitely turning heads.
Scarves are always a popular accessory, more so in some seasons than in others. This spring, scarves are found aplenty. No longer a cold-weather accessory, you will find silk and cotton scarves as well as every fabric in between for spring 2009. Whether you choose to pay $400.00 for a Burberry or Chanel scarf, or go to Express in the mall and grab a few for $30.00 apiece, you can be sure that they will be put to good use this season. Women everywhere are pairing them with tees and jeans, either around the neck or looped through belt buckles. Scarves are also a favored accessory to accompany suits and dresses.
Spring is an extremely fun season for fashion. Just as we open up the windows and let in the possibilities for a new season, we are also opening up to a new world of fashionable accessories and clothing. Make the most of your spring and your wardrobe by accessorizing the great new clothing trends the best you can, from handbags to jewelry to shoes to belts. Some of your favorite designers really are within your reach.
