California Fashion

The modernist California fashion designer Rudi Gernreich, visiting New York in 1970, remarked, "They are wearing their evening dresses during the day." Today full-tiered skirts are again sweeping Fifth Avenue. Designer versions are popping up at spring parties, some worn with wide leather belts, echoing the 1940's Mexican fiesta look.

World Fashion | Check out TopTen Wholesale Winter Fashion Favorites!

It’s getting close to the end of another decade in fashion, and the styles that we are seeing these days are certainly keeping up with the overall mood of global news… since it looks like everything surrounding the financial crisis and political re-shuffling that’s been going on has impacted nearly everyone in some way. Fashion seems to be taking a plunge into some distinctly military-themed apparel, as well as fresh ultra chic and glammy club-inspired gear. As a wholesale or retail specialist, what are you supped to do? It almost seems like there’s too much choice, and carrying something for everyone might not be the direction you’re trying to go in, unless you’re a drop-shipping powerhouse. For starters, try taking a look at our own Toptenwholesale.com search results page to see some examples of companies that offer great seasonal fashions at unbeatable prices! To see more ideas, check out manufacturer.com, wholesaleu.com, and offpricenetwork.com as well as a huge selection of general merchandise, apparel, accessories, gifts, electronics, handbags, jewelry, toys, and more!

In other words, the past few years of anything-goes seems to be coming to a head this year, and I reckon things will take a more decisive direction again, as soon as the news reflects more stability and predictability in everyone’s lives. This also means that you are going to have a lot of great options for selecting wholesale fashions and accessories for your cache of collectibles this year, because the emphasis will be on how you market the goods, not necessarily upon what you carry!


Plaid patterns will be part of the look this year!

Awesome, huh? Well, it might seem like shooting fish in a barrel at first… but if you don’t form a solid sales strategy based upon a foundation of fashion 101, you will be left with a dead inventory of overstock that looks more like the contents of every closet you’ve ever filled since you were five years old. Not so good. Let’s take a minute to look at what the fashionistas out there are talking about, and try to find the right line to follow this season as you Check out my quick list of TopTen Wholesale Winter Fashion Favorites!

First, take a look at some classics… designers like PRADA and D&G will always be respected for taking daring steps into uncharted waters, but the power of classic appeal is undeniable. Make sure you look closely at what Geoffrey Beene, Bill Blass, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, and Halston have on offer, because they are generally the ones to turn to for rock-solid classic style that doesn’t fade fast.

Now that you’ve made note of the classics, take a look at what else has made the list. This year, designs from J. Crew and Michael Kors have been noted as style picks by some, especially for those seeking a refined look.

The short dress was hot all Summer long, and it will continue to be a force in fashion through early Winter. Worn on its own as a breezy and light piece, or paired with leggings, jeans, and even layered with longer skirts and sweaters… well, let’s just say it’s not hard to promote an item like this one… especially since it usually holds at a price point that makes it attractive to wholesalers and online sellers.

Jeans will never die, and this year is no exception to the great run jeans have enjoyed for the past 50 years. While this season is leaning more towards glammy fashion on-the-go, jeans offer the easy way out for those who don’t have the time or energy to get dolled up. They also keep your shoppers coming back for more, since this is the one all-time favorite apparel item that is notoriously well-paired with accessories!

Dressed up, or dressed down… street chic is one of the driving forces behind fashion these days. With high-quality manicures and hair styles, it’s become the look of the decade to sport lower-end apparel with more glamorous shoes, bags, scarves, and other components that make the outfit shine. This is the ideal look to promote on your seller site, because it appeals to almost every demographic from the youth market, to the moms on-the-go!

BOHO-style is still around, even after hitting its peak around 2005. It’s an easy one to accessorize, and with all of the free-flowing fabrics and colors to choose from, it is easy to carry on your inventory as well.

Accessories rule! Hats, scarves, gloves, wraps, leggings, and other hot accessory items will be taking a large part of the order lists this year, as buyers try to keep their budgets under control. Once the core wardrobe has been built, many shoppers will be on the constant lookout for anything that adds variety to their existing gear. If you offer it, they will come to you!

That’s all for now, I hope you’ve enjoyed this little foray into the world of apparel and accessories, as we check out Topten wholesale winter fashion favorites! Don’t forget to browse the search results on our site, as you Find it. Source it. Profit!

Louis Vuitton’s Fall/Winter 2011-2012 Women’s Campaign – Honey Replica Handbags – Brands Designers Handbags And New Products

Louis Vuitton’s Fall/Winter 2011-2012 women’s campaign, photographed by Steven Meisel, channels 1940s bourgeoisie. Stunning young models relax in the back seat of vintage cars lined in sleek black leather. Stylist Karl Templer accessorized the women with leather gloves, bellhop hats, head bands and crocodile purses.



In addition they wore animal skin jackets with oversized covered black patent leather buttons. The mix of different furs and animal skins in rich reds, purples, grays and greens turn the vintage look into a modern French take on the young haute models. Like true little rich girls, they tote tiny black and white puppies to match the personality of the line. Headbands made of crystallized masks echo the feel of the line, as a masquerade ball should be in the near future.

Nikon digital camera at PMA 2009 Show : If there is one brand that has been performing superbly for the last year and a half, and even more important, has succeeded in standing out, it's Nikon. With an unparalleled battle concerning market share and a succession of new product launches, one success beaten by the other, Nikon has reached an extremely comfortable position. The introductions of the Nikon D3 and D300 digital SLR cameras were the start, and if you have followed last year’s developments, you will know how many Nikon imaging products succeeded after these two. Canon had to accept a big blow, which also had its effect in the professional world.


Nikon D3x digital SLR camera

Media offices and a large amount of professionals have switched over to Nikon cameras. That, and the giant sales figures of various Nikon imaging products, has largely influenced the market share of both brands. Naturally, a lot of interest went to Nikon's top product of the Nikon DSLR series; the Nikon D3x. It's an unparalleled high quality digital SLR for the professional, which has become a standard to serve as reference for the current generation of professional DSLR cameras. I will admit that the differences at the top gradually become smaller, but the recommended selling prices show larger differences. If you can afford the Nikon D3x, you will obtain a high quality tool that will pay for itself, depending on assignments and field of specialism.


Nikon Digital SLR cameras

Although the attention is drawn to the professional D3x, also the remaining Nikon DSLRs such as the D3, D700 and D90 can't complain about the amount of attention they are receiving. Nikon did not surprise at the PMA 2009 by introductions, but from experience we know Nikon is always quite stubborn in handling product launches. There's no logic to follow for the Western world in any case. One of the latest toys is the Nikon 50mm f/1.4 lens, a beautiful lens to use with the Nikon D700 DSLR for example.



Nikon Coolpix digital cameras

The Nikon Coolpix compact camera line-up is not yet that successful for Nikon, however, or at least; that has been the situation in the past few years. It gives you the feeling that the Coolpix and the Nikon DSLR are worlds apart. The contrast could hardly be larger. Where innovations and high quality techniques have been successfully integrated, Nikon doesn't seem to be able to stand out with the Nikon Coolpix series. The market share is meager and I can understand that. As a consumer, you'd generally purchase a Nikon compact camera with certain expectations of it. You purchase a Nikon for its quality, the expectations are high. However, if we take a look at the Nikon Coolpix assortment, we don't see that many cameras that stand out from the crowd.


New Nikon cameras

Take for example a camera like the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-LX3. It may not be a digital camera that processes high sales figures, but it is definitely a camera that knows how to stand out. A camera that is described many times with words like high quality, lens etc. I'd like to see this camera return in the P-series. And what's more, I do miss a compact megazoom camera with 10x optical zoom in the Nikon Coolpix camera line. A camera such as, again: the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-TZ7. These are examples of rivals that do know how to differentiate, in which the Coolpix stays behind.

Get Carter – Honey Replica Handbags – Brands Designers Handbags And New Products

KNOWN for creating bags that every celebrity – and soon after that every person with a fashion pulse – is dying to wear, Mulberry has added a new bag to its collection: the Carter. Already carried by stars including Lily Donaldson, Kate Bosworth, Kirsten Dunst and Emma Watson, the Carter is the season’s understated must-have.



“I’m so thrilled with Carter,” Mulberry creative director Emma Hill told us. “It’s a new family and it’s very much Mulberry-girl-grows-up. The autumn/winter 2011 season is a twist on the classically English countryside, and Carter is just the kind of bag that you can take from town to a country-house weekend.”

In several sizes and colours, and featuring a classic chain handle, the Carter’s subtle double lock detailing – which Hill explains comes straight from Mulberry’s archives – will no doubt soon become as cult as the Alexa has.

Christian Louboutin and Yves Saint Laurent have their day in court – Honey Replica Handbags – Brands Designers Handbags And New Products

Entertaining scenes in a New York courtroom on Friday where squabbling fashion houses Christian Louboutin and Yves Saint Laurent met to argue the former’s allegations that the latter infringed their Red Sole trademark for their 2011 cruise collection.

Women’s Wear Daily reported from the courtroom that ‘red pumps and sandals were strewn everywhere’ with presiding judge, Victor Marrero, even lightening the mood at one point by exclaiming “Nice shoes!” with a smile.


Yves Saint Laurent’s lawyer, David Bernstein, argued that his client had been using red as a signature colour since the fashion house was founded in 1962 and that even King Louis XIV of France and Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz had red-soled shoes. He went on to question whether......

“I’m addicted to Dita, Tom Ford and Balenciaga frames.”

The brunette beauty also admitted she places a big importance on looking “sexy” and uses fashion as a way of communicating her personality.

She added: “My style is sexy, for sure. I like to be well put together and on trend.

“I’ve always defined myself through my style. It’s how I communicate who I am.

“My favorite designers are Alexander McQueen and Marchesa. They design pieces that never go out of style.”

Rihanna Talks Madonna’s Inspiration, Lady Gaga’s Fashion – Honey Replica Handbags – Brands Designers Handbags And New Products

Rihanna has gone on record to say that Madonna is the pop star who inspired her the most. RiRi told We Love Pop (via DigitalSpy) that Madge’s evolution, in terms of her style and her music, impacted her.

“If I had to examine her evolution through time, I think she reinvented her clothing style and music with success every single time,” Rihanna spilled. “And at the same time remained a real force in entertainment in the whole world.”

As for her own style evolution, Rihanna, 23, said that likes to evolve and grow, and refuses to stick to one style for too long so that she never gets stale. She admitted that she is over her ‘Rated R’ period, saying that “even though it was very successful for me … It was tough because I was forced to maintain a certain image for so long and now I just want to get out of that.”

Sexy Librarian? Getting My Chanel on with LensCrafters – Honey Replica Handbags – Brands Designers Handbags And New Products


My style has always skewed a bit more minimal or Seventies inspired, but no one’s ever accused me of trying to rock the sexy librarian look often channelled on the runways of Prada and Marc Jacobs. Ever since I got some sweet 70s serial killer meets aforementioned sexy librarian Chanel glasses from Lens Crafters, I suddenly want to get a little more ladylike, and possibly start shushing people, maybe?


The eyeglass emporium you may think of as your run of the mill mall store has some high fashion eyewear on their roster – including the aforementioned Chanel, Tom Ford and Dolce & Gabbana, just to name a few. Len Crafters invited some fashion peeps to try out their new, very high tech AccuFit Digital system, which basically puts that archaic practice of putting a Sharpie dot over where your prescription should go on your lenses to shame. The new system also takes photos of you in different frames from multiple angles – which is perfect for those seriously visually impaired ones among us – and just kind of fun for the rest of us.

Vela Scarves Blends Western Fashion With Islamic Tradition – Honey Replica Handbags – Brands Designers Handbags And New Products


“Victorian Lace,” “Black Ruffle Prima Ballerina” and “Cat’s Meow” are names of the top-selling products at Vela Scarves, a Fountain Valley-based online fashion company that produces high quality hijabs, or headscarves, for Muslim women.



“Vela is a company that takes occurring fashion trends and applies it to the headscarf while maintaining the Islamic standards of modesty,” explained Marwa Atik, the designer and co-founder of the company.


Vela, derived from the Latin word for “veil,” was established in the fall of 2009 when Atik and some of her friends created a fan page for the company and began posting the scarves on Facebook.

With more orders coming in than the college students could handle, Marwa sat down with her sister, Tasneem, to create a real business plan for the company. Since then, Vela has been registered as an official LLC, hired a manufacturer to create the scarves and produces an average of 200 headscarves per month. They even receive international orders from Singapore, Malaysia, Germany, Turkey and South Africa, to name a few countries.

“This is just something that fell into my lap,” explained Atik. “I didn’t know how big Vela was going to be until I received so much positive feedback from girls who are very fashionable but are having a hard time practicing the hijab properly.”

Luxe is back for good…and profit – Honey Replica Handbags – Brands Designers Handbags And New Products

Luxury is back on fashion as predicted in a May report by Bain & Company. The document advanced that global luxury goods sales would increase 8 percent in 2011 in part because of renewed demand in the U.S., where department store sales are increasing and Europe, where tourism is strong (Bain expected the large Japanese luxury goods markets to recover soon from the effects of its recent earthquake).



Also, a Northeastern American University report showed earlier this year, many affluent Americans sidestepped the recent recession and, according to David Arnold, publisher of the luxury magazine Robb Report, the wealthy are no longer as embarrassed about flaunting their wealth as they were in 2009.

The Bain report also cited continuing growth in emerging markets like China, Russia, Brazil, and the Middle East. The Chinese market “skews very young (the average Chinese luxury consumer is around 30, whereas the average western luxury consumer is around 55),” the paper explains. “Thus, what happens there often affects what will happen in older (i.e. European and American) markets later.”

World Fashion | Citrus-C Facial Cleanser


I have to say I'm a very self-conscious person and always, always hard on myself. That's why in a sort of mean, selfish kind of way I'm happy that the days of really fabulous models -- models with personalities and distinctive characteristics -- like Linda, Christy, Claudia, and Cindy -- are gone. Instead today we are left with 14 year old stick figures who are practically indistinguishable from one another -- why is this good? I see them and marvel at the clothes and makeup and pay zero attention to the models themselves -- if I see Naomi walking down a runway or Christie Brinkley on the cover of New York Magazine that's when I get down on myself (funny how insecurities never go away...). One model though that I think takes the cake even more so than the original supermodels is Gisele -- the girl has got it going on..damn! And what I love most about her is that she has a toned and fit body, something my lazy, averse to working-out self admires and of course, she has fabulous golden brown skin -- which my white as paper self admires even more!!:) So of course I tried Lamas Beauty's Citrus-C Facial Cleanser ($19, but I've seen it cheaper, so you may be able to surf around and find it for less), when I heard that she's a fan (funny too that I jumped on it, because for the most part I'll try anything on my body, but am very picky when it comes to cleansers since my skin is super-sensitive..). I have to say that I love the smell of this cleanser -- you def have to love orange though -- it reminds me of those orange popsicles filled with vanilla ice-cream (anyone else eat those when they were younger!?). It's also organic, paraben-free, and works great as a makeup remover:) Also, its supposedly good for acne-prone skin. I haven't used it long enough to say for sure whether it can help your complexion beyond just removing impurities, but the soothing effect of the chamomile and the smell are enough to get my approval:)

Fashion — in 3D – Honey Replica Handbags – Brands Designers Handbags And New Products

I’ll be the first to admit that I have a bad shopping habit. You don’t even want to see my shoe collection. Luckily, I don’t have too bad of a sunglasses problem — yet.

But now there’s a new fashion trend emerging that involves wearing your sunglasses — in the dark.

Yep, it’s apparently no longer cool to wear those bulky, and let’s be honest ugly, 3-D glasses at the movies.

Designers, such as Calvin Klein and Oakley, are partnering with engineers to create fashionable glasses to wear inside and outside the theater. You wear them from the street to the theater. No muss, no fuss.

But they go for about $180 a pop. You’ve got to admit it’s creative, no?

Handbags Inspired from the 1950′s to 1980′s – Honey Replica Handbags – Brands Designers Handbags And New Products


It is not rare for a designer to take inspiration from past eras, and there are many handbag designers whose bags showcase a vintage inspiration with a modern twist. We’ve compiled a list of today’s handbags that share features with handbags from the past. Do these spark any memories?


1950′s: Bags of the 1950′s symbolized femininity by putting great emphasis on a ladylike and delicate appearance. This shoulder bag by Prada is definitely reminiscent of the 1950′s with its classic leather material and rectangular shape. What makes this bag more modern? The snap closure instead of a metal framed clasp.

1960′s: Floral prints were no stranger to the 1960′s, and this Riki Rosetta Alexandra clutch utilizes the floral effect in a unique way. Rather than having in-your-face floral patterns featured on the handbag, this clutch gives you the elegance of a handheld bag with the inspiration of the 60′s. Great for formal events at night or a lunch date with your girlfriends during the day, this will be your go-to clutch!
