Beyonce: Hipper than the Mister

In the last year or so it seems that Beyonce has followed in her younger sister Solange's footsteps and become a hipster (and having a child), well expressed through her blog and her instagram. I'm not mad at it. Honestly, I like seeing this part of Queen Bey's life. I think she's much more interesting and more personable, as personable as a super famous performance artist can be, through her blog and new found hipsterism--a word I made up. 

Like Rihanna, Bey has become more and more inclined towards fashion, seeing things on the Runway she likes and then nearly grabbing them right off of the runway. This photo is a great example. She's wearing a Celina Fall 2012 sweater. Sweaters, like I said in previous posts, are back in full force--especially pullover crew neck sweaters. Leather detail is also super trendy. This Celine sweater combines the two in a way that is very chic. Beyonce is rocking it with her new hipster style, especially evident in her recent trip to Cuba. Keep #winning Bey!

If You Like It Then You Should Put a Sweater Over It

Spring has come to the East Coast. However, for those of you who don't know what that looks like--it means that it can be 55 degrees (12 degrees Celsius) or 43 degrees (7 degrees Celsius) and sunny. Since Winter lasts so long and it gets so cold on the East Coast, as soon as the sun comes out people start wearing shorts and skirts with bare-legs even though it's not actually warm, it is just sunny.

Sweaters are a great way to tackle the crisp air of spring while not being to hot when the sun is out. Whether you're wearing a flowy dress, like Tamu-pictured is, or wide-leg trousers (like I wore this morning to teach at the prison) put a sweater over it (it being what you're wearing) to transition into spring. If you want to put a collar underneath, that's fun as well.

Have a happy sunny day wherever you are!

^^This is Givenchy Spring 2013 Runway

Sweaters have come back into high fashion, street fashion, everywhere! You have a graphic sweater? Wear it! Givenchy is just one of the many ways it is clear that sweaters, for women, have made a come back. Bloggers from stylepantry to Monroe have been rocking the Biggie sweater; and rocking it well. Kenzo (http://styledeityinathens.blogspot.com/2012/11/kenzo-sweatshirts.html)and other designer brands who are notorious for making amazing sweaters have bloggers and celebrities wearing their sweaters all over the place. Moral of the story, sweaters are back and I'm excited.
