Hive 5: Shorties Unite Behind Nude Pumps!

image
How would you like to be taller? Well there's a bit of fashion magic that creates the illusion of added height - nude heels! They work by elongating the leg. A heel in any other tone will create contrast cutting the leg line at the ankle. The nude color actually works to extend the leg. And since the color is neutral and blends in, the heels go with everything. This versatility makes nude heels a wonderful investment. For a funky vibe check out Chloe's thick heeled pump with a collared edge and bonus hidden platform, invest in a pair of Christian Louboutin heels in patent leather, or opt keep your look classic with Kate Spade's renditions in suede and ostrich embossed leather. More styles and details are in the SLIDESHOW - so get clicking!

Stylediary Spotlight: Milly Just Wears What Feels Right!

image
In fashion, being comfortable is not always the objective. And many of us end up following trends despite knowing that not everything that happens in fashion suits us. Stylediarist Milly maintains her style sensibility while simultaneously managing not to fall into the fashion grind. Her style philosophy is to wear things that make her feel and look good. Feeling comfortable in your clothing boosts confidence and allows you to flourish, and this Melbourne science student is doing just that. Without molding herself to any particular style, she manages to pull off whatever she puts on. Whether it's vintage, business casual, or easy going, she wears each look - they don't wear her. Check out my SLIDESHOW to see how I narrowed down her diary to the best of her best, and make sure to check out Milly's Stylediary for yourself!

Stylediary Spotlight: Lookbooks That Are as Much About Art as Fashion

image
Stylediarist Tootly is a force to be reckoned with. Not only does this 24-year-old New Yorker mix vintage and contemporary designs like nobody's business, but she also has a diary display like NO ONE ELSE. I adore how boring, repetitive white walls and closet backgrounds are replaced by photoshopped images of maps, graffiti, giraffes and the likes of Peter Rabbit. Her profile states that "photoshop takes [her] to places [she's] never been before," and it certainly does. The images complement the outfits, and the fusion definitely increases each looks points of inspiration. With a style that is defined but still limitless, Stylediarist Tootly is definitely one of the site's premier users! Check out my SLIDESHOW to see the looks that I think shouldn't be missed.

Hive 5: Spice Up Your Look With Red Lipstick!

image
I've come to the conclusion that it's time to play with makeup again. For so long, makeup has on a daily basis been used to make us look "naturally" beautiful. The "I just naturally look like this" act has been in play for quite some time and in my opinion needs to be retired for a while! The newest statement that is being worn for both day and evening makeup looks is a strikingly saturated red lip. Think of Dita Von Teese, pin up girls, and old Hollywood glamour as your inspirations. I've selected an array of stains, glosses, and lipsticks to give you as many means as possible to achieve your perfect red lip this season. Check out my SLIDESHOW to see just what I found in the Hive.

Hive 5: Beads From Sui, Stella McCartney and More!

image
Beads, beads and more beads, these delicate, intricate, and ornately patterned pieces will surely become family heirlooms. Today's Hive 5 not only brings drama to your accessories collection, but gossip as well! It seems that the Anna Sui bag that I've featured was not designed by Anna Sui! For someone known for her gusto in the creativity department it seems unfathomable that she would make an exact copy of a bag someone in her camp purchased from dorotheasclosetvintage.com (check out her website, maybe you'll find something from Anna's next collection...) but really, down to each and every bead that seems to be the case! Along with this controversial purse, I've selected an exquisite sequined bib necklace from Marni (perfect for the bohemian artist type), a BeaValdes necklace which is just the look for to fit this season's statement necklace criteria, and stunning evening bags from Matthew Williamson and Stella Mccartney. Explore my picks in the SLIDESHOW!

Stylediary Spotlight: Pash Has a Passion for Fashion

image
Again, I'm bringing you another Australian- the rest of the world really needs to step up their game! This 24-year-old is a self-confessed adornment fanatic. Whether it's gold chains, appliques, rosettes, bows, drapes, ruffles, fringing, feathers, anything jeweled, tie-dye or watercolor prints, she is ready and willing to incorporate it. I like that despite her love of "extras" her looks all appear simple, clean, and coordinated. Most importantly nothing she wears overpowers her frame; it is all balanced. Pash's Stylediary boasts some big names: Christian Louboutin, Luella, Mike & Chris, and Betsey Johnson all make cameos. Even though many of her pieces are from established designers, you could just as easily come up with similar looks from vintage racks. Check out my picks from Pash in the SLIDESHOW and make sure to check out Pash's Stylediary for yourself! As always, let me know in the COMMENTS section if you find someone that NEEDS to be featured!
