Company Holiday parties are fast approaching, and obviously you want to show-off to your co-workers that you look like a decent human female when you actually put effort clean up pretty nice. Well, one way to make sure that you'll be a show stopper is to add some sparkle to your outfit. Take cues from Régine Chassagne (The Arcade Fires lead singer) on last weeks SNL performance. There's one point in her performance when she dances and all you can do is focus on the glittery reflections that she gives off...sort of like a human disco ball. And though that much gold looks great on ice skaters, South American folk legends and entertainers, here are a couple ideas to add some gold to your Holiday party outfit:
Little Black Dress plus these shoes-you'll for sure turn heads.
Below is the actual video from the SNL performance by The Arcade Fire. If you haven't already, please do yourself a favor and listen to the entire album "The Suburbs".
Even though the sun is beating us to the ground here in Southern Califas.(and no, I'm not complaining!) that doesn't mean one can't dress up with all the fun fashion has to offer in the Fall. Fall has always been my closet's favorite time of the year. It means dressing up with more layers of clothing and putting on all my favorite winter coats and boots...and even though in the past years I've shied away from tall heel boots this year I'm embracing the "inner Amazon woman" and rocking high heels like the baddest bitch on the block.
My favorite accessory this fall is the bold statement necklace, particularly this statement necklace by Tranquiltelas. This particular color really compliments well with the color palette Fall is known for: Khakis, Browns, Military green.
On a last note, if you're like me, you probably would like to run over the holiday music like that reindeer did to Grandma. This has to be at least once on your Fall/Holiday playlist. "Night by Night" by Chromeo.
What trends are your favorite during Fall?

Living in So. Califas, one has the advantage of having the fashion, sun and fun. But the best part of living in So Cal. THE MUSIC! The plethora of musicians that emerge from Southern California culture is amazing! The Doors, Cold War Kids, Sublime, Snoop, etc... Which is why my heart danced the one-two-step when I found out that one of my favorite local bands "Love Grenades" is part of "The Collaboration Series" by PAC SUN. The series allows upcoming photographers design custom shirts.
The designer, Taylor Brittenham , "is a Los Angeles based photographer whose subjects range from pop art to pop music", captured the bands' lead singer to create this limited edition tee. The shirt is only $18 and it allows you to show the whole world how much you like "Love Grenades"!
So the world cup didn't turn out quite the way U.S.A. wanted it to be... But hey! We're the United States of America, and tomorrow we celebrate the birth of our nation! Woot-Woot! Which means, bbq parties, friends/family, and fireworks to celebrate the fact that we are that powerful to not care about the world cup.
Now your mind still might not be thinking what you will be wearing tomorrow, but here @ Rose Bow we have a couple of suggestions to make you look "Patriotic Chic" without looking like Tommy Hilfiger ad circa 1995.
Simple ideas to make yourself look a little more patriotic:
Baseball Cap:
What’s more American than allowing corporate conglomerates destroy 3rd word nation's economy Baseball? The baseball cap is an informal patriotic accessory and great for the weather :)
Plain White Tee:
Crisp, clean and white, the plain white Tee is an American fashion staple. Pair this tee with any jeans and you're as American as Apple pie.
Bald Eagle:
What's more American than an actual endangered Bald Eagle? This is the accessory du jour! Bring this baby to a 4th of July BBQ, and you will most deffo be the most American bad-ass in the nation. You will bleed America, if not from Patriotism but caused by the eagle's claws.
Check out this article from Fashionista.com to give you more suggestions on how you can add an extra U.S.A. flair to your 4th of July outfit.
Summer is here and I'm so excited. Finally I can let the sun kiss my skin and enjoy all the fashion summer has to offer. This is a quick little photo essay of things that I want this summer. Which include bikes, skull rings, Indian headbands, and a call for people to use more public transportation! I feel like bright colors are so passe this summer. Instead i'm trying to opt out for a more classic approach with color schemes. Putting color in small details of your outfit (like floral print docs or a glitter eye-liner) are some ideas to add some Summer flair to your outfit with out looking like a Pollock!
The song I decided to put up is a cover of "Pump the Jam" by the always body groovin' Colombian band "Bomba Estereo". I still haven't decided what this summer 's anthem is going to be but this is most deffo on this summer's playlist. Some of the pictures above are from random adventures i've taken in the past days and pictures I've picked from random websites.
