Fashion Tip : New Wave Rave…

Friday, May 29th, 2009

Musically, New rave consists of poppy electronic sound that makes you want to get off your seat!

But in fashion, it’s all about BRIGHT colours…

And as usual, celebrities didn’t miss the trend…and when I think of an artist sporting hot neon colours I immediately see….KANYE WEST! (who even incorporated the trend in his music : You surely remember his hit “STRONGER”?)

Kanye paired his neon green skinny jean...

HOW TO WEAR IT : Don’t overdo it with too much neon…Mix the bright colours with basic neutrals.

And if you’re not feeling the bright colours tops or bottoms, you can always pick up some accessories just to add small pops of colour to your outfit…DARE TO HAVE THE UNIQUE STYLE!

I made some picks for you guys from our Yukka boutique…So go cop some of these!

We’ll start with the Rocawear polos and neon colours tees…Perfect for summer!

combined with fun sneakers…

And to accessorize the outfit…

Enjoy the Neon trend!

To Tee or Not To Tee?

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

New rave or should it be called nu rave has really kicked off the summers fashion. Celebs from Beyonce to the Olsen Twins have been spotted clad in bright, garish colours. 2008 bought the 80’s large print oversized t-shirt fashion back, and now summer 09 is giving the catwalk an overhaul with bright leggings, bold animal prints and as much neon colour splashes as possible.

If you’re anything like me, I find mix and matching these neon colours with my wardrobe a real confusion, I could sit for hours deciding “Is it the white oversized tee and a belt with purple leggings or the Apple Bottom jeans and a lovely bold large print tee.” Its now becoming acceptable to wear a t-shirt as a dress (which is great to pull you in your figure in all the right places!)

Flicking through the Yukka womens page, the new G-Unit womens line is looking pretty figure hugging to me! With extra detail to point out a girls best assets yet nothing to in-your-face. Iron Fist are the first to jump on the urban scene’s touch to new rave, with some flamboyant prints and cartoon styled retro tees, pair them up with some gorgeous aviators, cut off jeans and pumps is a great outfit ready to start this summer with a bang as those tees will really catch some attention!
