Do You Dare? Here are some fantastical and outrageous ideas for shaking up a ho-hum day or a seemingly banal wardrobe! Part of the fun of fashion is its ability to transform! Try . . .

A brazen
new neckline, like Prada’s keyhole or Jean Paul Gaultier’s halter sweetheart from the Spring 2008 Couture (photo at left via style.com). Or go for a backless dress or tunic - see Couture Carrie's post from the other day!


Halloweeny makeup (red eye shadow; orange nails; green lipstick – you get the idea). See
Beyonce's yellow nail lacquer look at left, via jahaute.blogspot.com.

A ridiculously wide and chunky belt – maybe even studded! Couture Carrie is totally digging

An oversize cocktail ring – try something
you would ordinarily shun and see how much attention it gets – fun! I like these arty Phuze Design glass cocktail rings, for purchase at aplusrstore.com

A flesh-tone bikini: Make them do a double take! There’s nothing more alluring than swimming in the nude! Try the Shay Todd suit pictured at right, available at figleaves.com.

A flesh tone bikini?
that looks gross! I would never wear it lol
Hey Couture Carrie. Are you interested in a career in fashion design? If so then check my blog for info on a great contest coming up
Hey Coco and Fashion Ivy! Thanks for tuning in on this steamy day. Coco - - I totally hear you on the nude bikini. Rosa Cha has a couple that are less offensive but still in the flesh tone spirit :) And Ivy - YES I am dying to have a career in fashion, so I will check out your blog & enter the contest asap. Thank you!
i have fallen in love with your choices. Nude bikini with a tan is always a fantastic look & Shu Uemura is the queen of false eyelashes. I may be tempted to purcahse some of my own myself. Lovely blog
