Paris Hilton tries her best to be not only a beautiful picture or a constant party-girl, but a successful business woman. She has her hands in everything fashion industry can offer: movies, songs, handbags, perfumes, clothes and now even SHOES.
Two days ago Paris launched her new Paris Hilton Footwear Collection in Las Vegas. The event took place at Macy’s department store.
Paris wore an adorable bright blue dress and her own gold shoes, she looked stunning. But as to shoes … I can say, not bad but, frankly speaking, nothing special and nothing new.
What do you think dears???
I never would have thought that our fashion preferences would change this way. Ten years ago a jacket with sport shoes were something really disgusting, actually, this outfit was a sign of bad taste. But now, everybody wears sport shoes with jackets and jackets with hoods and it seems to be really fashionable. Moreover, people combine classic style with hippy, denim and even sport and they look completely natural.
It’s not bad that our world and fashion industry as well constantly undergo some changes, but sometimes these changes are just too strange and unexpected.
That’s why going on with this interesting topic and my love to flats I would like to ask you: whether a beautiful, rather elegant and always hot black halo dress will look perfect together with simple silver flats? Or may be these two things are just too different and it is impossible to look stylish in such outfit?
Tell me your thoughts )))

Shirt dresses are the best. They are smart, sophisticated but still very feminine and daytime perfect.

Tailored, clean cut, prim and pretty, they are the sisters to classic DVF wrap dresses (and can even be worn by girls less well endowed in the chest area!). These kind of shirt dresses, like the ones shown from Ralph Lauren, will never go out of style. But in a more casual atmosphere, as I almost always find myself in, sometimes these shirt dresses make me feel slightly too dressed up, even if they are designed to be perfect for the daytime- like a sore thumb who somehow landed on the streets from the country club.

Luckily for me, the newly updated shirt dress this season neatly solves my dilemma. They are less structured, more casual, with fun, youthful details. And yet they still manage to maintain the very proper and put together effect of a classic shirt dress! These two are from DVF (left) and Sass & Bide (right). I especially love how they made it into a high collar instead on the Sass & Bide dress.

Over at Paul and Joe Sister (left) and Derek Lam 3.1 (right), they turned in the buttons and switched it for laces . Usually I'm not a fan of this type of lacing up (too Pocahontas!), but I think it works here. It gives it a more casual, outdoor-sy feeling to the whole look.

Here are two of my favourite reinterpretations of the shirt dress from Top Shop (left) and Corey Lynn Calter from Nordstrom (right). The Top Shop dress barely looks like a shirt dress with its wide round collar, bubbly sleeves and scrunching. But all the crucial elements are still there. With the right accessories i.e. big colorful necklace, this dress would look so cool and now. Going in the opposite direction, the dress from Nordstrom is loose but still structured in a futuristic kind of way. The addition of the bright yellow belt is absolutely genius. It completes the look. I DEFINITELY wouldn't mind owning this dress!

There were a lot of catwomen and actually most of them weren’t both either sexy or nameable. To my mind, the best catwoman ever is Julie Newmar and now Angelina Jolie was offered this role.
OR
She is not pregnant now and full of energy, so as to me this role will suit her perfectly. What do you think???
