Fashion Lady Crap

Archive for June, 2010

If there’s one word to sum up Lady Gaga, it might be “unpredictable.” The songstress and fashion icon has pushed the boundaries when it comes to music videos, live shows and apparel, and just when everyone thought she was becoming predictable with her bizarre clothing choices and flamboyant personality the latest news comes as somewhat of a shock. According to CNN.com, Gaga recently admitted in an interview that she is celibate.

At a recent event for M.A.C.’s Viva Glam, the singer said, “I can’t believe I’m saying this – don’t have sex. It’s not really cool any more to have sex all the time. It’s cooler to be strong and independent. It’s okay not to have sex, it’s okay to get to know people. I’m celibate, celibacy’s fine.” If you can believe it, Gaga is joining the likes of the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus when it comes to being pro-abstinence. However Gaga is still getting plenty of attention thanks to her risqué music videos and revealing costume choices.

The latest Gaga project to cause a stir in the music industry was the music video she collaborated on with Beyonce. “Telephone” features the two pop stars in Thelma and Louise character roles, only there is a lot more skin showing in this short film. The costumes are as outrageous as they come – one scene shows Gaga with her hair piled high, molded into the shape of a telephone. The video was clearly all Gaga, although Beyonce added a slight bit of normalcy to an otherwise bizarre shoot. Needless to say the short music film caught the eyes of both critics and fans alike, most of whom were not the least bit surprised with the end result.

Lady Gaga’s rise to fame seemed to happen within the blink of an eye. One moment she was performing burlesque shows at small nightclubs throughout New York City and the next she was attending the Grammy Awards with Kermit the Frog. Gaga achieved her first big hit song with “Just Dance,” released in 2008, the precursor to the follow-up album The Fame. The tracks were routinely played in clubs around the world and ultimately “Just Dance” scored the top spot on the Billboard charts. Other songs off of the record also become popular singles, most notably “Poker Face” and “Paparazzi.”

Gaga’s follow-up album The Fame Monster arrived in November 2009, led by the single “Bad Romance.” Once again, the ballad reached the top of the Billboard charts in a short amount of time and became her fifth consecutive Top 10 single.

It’s hard to argue with Gaga’s popularity; she has taken the music world by storm with her unique style in what she calls “performance art.” Lady Gaga always has plenty of surprises in store for her devoted fans. Keep up to date with all of the latest Gaga news and information and see her live on stage.

You won’t be eating any solid foods for a period of ten days. All of us are conditioned to eat three times, not eating food for some days can really be scary.

* Psyllium Husk

Psyllium Husk is the husk that can be found on Plaintain seeds. Plaintains are bananas for cooking. Psyllium Husk is popular among experienced detox diet buffs for helping the body cleanse the bowels -100 grams of it will give you 71 grams of soluble fiber.

When you’re doing the Master Cleanse lemonade detox diet, you’ll get the nutrients you need during from the maple syrup in the lemonade concoction. That said, your biggest problem is dealing with the hunger pangs. When this happens, keep in mind that hunger is really more psychological than biological.

If you take a look at the music industry’s fashion of the 1980s it will give you plenty of pointers for your 80s fancy dress. 

Fashion of the 80s moved on from the 1970’s by transforming the outrageous harsh Punk styles into softer, friendlier high street clothing.  Materials were mixed up. Madonna softened the punk style with a softer and sexier look of nets, gloves and chiffon.  Silk and harsh netting created the eighties glam look.

Jewellery – Chains, studs, several earrings worn in one ear, big hair, multi-coloured hair, bold nail varnish and large amounts of jewellery were all 80s fashion trends. 

Coloured Hair spray -Non–permanent spray-on hair dye was used in bright or florescent colours of pinks, reds, plum, greens and blues. Spray it on to match your outfit and then wash it out straight away ready for the next colour.  

Body shape – Health and fitness were the rage and took over from skinny.  It was fashionable to have a body shape and keep it in shape.  The eighties gave us the workout video (and also beta!!)and many TV and film stars produced their own exercise regime for the screen.  Headbands became a fashion item after Olivia Newton John released her ‘Lets get physical’ video.   If you can carry off the Olivia Newton John outfit of headband, lycra pants and top, with acrylic leg warmers then go for an  80s fancy dress to stun them all!  It’s a fun look and who knows may start you off an exercise regime!! 

Jeans – People still remember the Levi jean advert in 1985 when Nick Kamen stripped off his 501’s in the launderette.  This Levi jean advert helped promote the blue jeans and we all started spending over £20 for our jeans!

A pair of Levis with trainers can be a very easy 80s fancy dress if you want to keep your outfit low key.  Ladies can top it off with a soft ruffled blouse romantic style and the men can wear the Miami Vice no collar style shirt and sneakers.

New Romantics -The New Romantic look that was styled by Vivienne Westwood used frills for a softer look. Princess Diana, Duran Duran and Adam Ant often wore new romantics.  This moved on to become the pirate look of the 80s fashion. The men wore waistbands, cummerbunds and jackets with velvet lapels.

The 1980s fashion cover a wide range of outfits.  All you have to do is decide what you costume want wear. Madonna, Adam Ant, Jeans and sneakers or Olivia Newton John, they’re all fun and will look fabulous.
