Features of 2011 Fashion Antelope finish suede in the World

<h2 style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">types of leather</span></h2><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Leather is any tanned, toughened (yet  pliable), dried, and dyed skin of an animal. Thanks to modern dyeing  processes, most types of leather can be found in nearly any color. Some  leathers, however, are best known for particular colors.</span><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Buckskin</b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">: Pliable leather with a smooth finish from wild stag (deer, elk or antelope).</span><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Chamois</b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">:  Leather originally made from the Alpine chamois, a goat-like animal.  Nowadays, it's culled from sheepskin. Chamois is well regarded for its  supreme softness, absorbency and light tan color. It is pronounced  SHAM-wa, or parochially, SHAM-ee.</span><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Calfskin</b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">: Leather from  young cows. It's a smoother leather, but it can be roughened to create  "velour leather," or embossed with patterns and other textures. It is  considered dressy and is usually found in darker shades (blacks and  browns).</span><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Cowhide</b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">: Leather from full-grown cows that is  used for shoes, boots and jackets. Tough and durable, it can have a  smooth or rough finish. You'll find it in all colors, but mostly shades  of brown and black.</span><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Lizard skins</b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">: Crocodile, alligator  and other lizard skins are usually limited to belts, luggage or shoes.  They sport a scaly texture and a nice sheen, and can be had in shades of  green, Grey, red, and brown.</span><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Pigskin</b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">: Pigskin is more  commonly used in South America. It has little nap (fuzz) and is  generally smooth to the touch and tan in color.</span><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Ostrich</b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">: An "exotic" leather found on belts or shoes. Ostrich resembles a plucked chicken, and as such, has a "goose bump" appearance.</span><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" /><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Suede</b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">:  Suede is created when the reverse side of calfskin is roughened to the  point of extreme softness. The resultant nap almost resembles velvet.  Suede goods can be had in all major colors. </span></span><br /><div class="image_container">             <div class="image_container_inner">                          <img alt="Emm Kuo designer talks about her Spring 2011 collection" height="299" src="http://www.ladylux.com/phpThumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/pics/emm_kuo_2_1292532901.jpg&w=418" title="Emm Kuo designer talks about her Spring 2011 collection" width="400" />                 <div class="photo_credit">                                                                               </div></div></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.emmkuo.com/" target="_new" title="Emm Kuo">Emm Kuo</a>  Handbags is only 7 months old, but it’s already causing a commotion in  the accessories world due to its exotic textiles and modern designs.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Parsons graduate and designer Emmaline Ranzman always knew she would  go into fashion. Born in Taipei, Taiwan, and raised in New York and  Hawaii, Ranzman continually felt a connection to the Big Apple and knew  that is where she had to be.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">After graduating from high school, she retuned to attend New York  University, where she majored in design marketing and art history.  Originally in the public relations and marketing side of fashion,  Ranzman got an internship in London at the renowned LVMH Group, the  makers of brands such as Louis Vuitton and Dior.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">“It was the best opportunity. I got to see what a big corporation was  like, but they’re also so innovative and artistic,” she said. “I got to  see how being in fashion and being in design was meant for me.”</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Ranzman returned to the mainland, but didn’t go into design  immediately. She was offered a job at Entertainment Media Works, where  she worked with stylists and designers for a new media start-up. </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">“The more I worked with stylists and designers, it made me realize  how much I wanted to design … My true passion has always been in  design,” Ranzman said.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Finally convinced, Ranzman decided to take the risk and not worry about the “starving artist” stereotype.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">In 2008 she attended Parsons for a year-long intensive course in  which she studied womenswear. Although it didn’t have an accessories  emphasis, Ranzman definitely took a liking to the classes. Shortly  thereafter, she worked for designer Catharine Malandrino.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">“It definitely helped when I was designing my own line,” the  28-year-old designer said. “Catherine is so great with texture and color  and mixing materials.”</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">She was lucky because Malandrino had recently started an accessories  line, so Ranzman was able to contribute a great deal to the new division  of the label.</span></div><center style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><img alt="image" height="400" src="http://www.ladylux.com/images/pics/emmk.jpg" width="339" /></span></center>  <div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Although her aesthetic is very different from Malandrino, Ranzman shares that love of texture and color.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">“I always knew I wanted to do exotics, but I wanted to make it more  youthful, so I mixed the bubble leather with python and suede,” she  said. “I think mixing materials can give it depth and layers.”</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">She was also very focused on the hardware, which she said “makes a good bag stand out.”</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">While thumbing through an old book on military jackets, Ranzman was  inspired to create her signature Emm Kuo toggle. She then drew it, and  had it casted and molded.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Although the designer has fashion experience in almost every  category, from marketing to womenswear design, she felt especially drawn  to accessories. </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">“I feel like accessories, especially bags, all types of people can  wear them – all ages and all body types,” she said. “When I think of  certain bags that I have, a Chanel bag or a Balenciaga, those bags are  so timeless that you can pass them on from generation to generation. It  has longevity almost.”</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Her Spring 2011 will soon be carried at Intermix stores, and she’s  produced a few bags to be sold at A Man and A Woman in the West Village.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Her Spring line boast bags in creamy python prints, baby blue suede and glamorous metallics. </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></div><center style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><img alt="image" height="400" src="http://www.ladylux.com/images/pics/blue.jpg" width="372" /></span></center>  <div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">She describes her aesthetic as “feminine and romantic, but it’s always been a little bit edgy.”</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">She revealed that she didn’t want her line to be so strong that women  would be afraid to try it, but rather a collection that has a bag for  everyone.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">“I wanted to create accessories that uptown and downtown girls could both wear,” she said.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Right now the designer is working on Fall/Winter 2011. She hinted at a  new suede, some leopard and custom, handpainted pony hair pieces.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">“The second collection is more for someone that likes handbags with a strong finish to them,” she explained.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Ranzman said she was inspired by her travels in Asia and old films such as “In the Mood for Love.”</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">When it comes to cleaning suede footwear, we all think about it twice  before we wear, don't we? Are suede shoes too difficult to take care  in? Suede is a beautiful fabric, but, unfortunately, it can be a  challenge to clean. Plus, professional suede cleaning can be quite  costly.Here are the some hints to protect and extend the life of your  suede:</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The first point to make is that treating your suede or  nubuck shoes with a protective spray or finish will help to repel water  and prevent stains. If that ship has already sailed, at least you'll  know for future reference to protect before wearing.  </span></div><img alt="ACNE Wall Street Jacket" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-58278" height="281" src="http://www.selectism.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/acne-jacket-1.jpg" title="ACNE Wall Street Jacket" width="400" /><br /><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The Spring/Summer 2011 Collection takes shape with AcneStudios early.  The “Wall Street Jacket” offers a solid silhouette to the traditional  blazer cut. “The cool single-breasted jacket with notched collar that  speaks business and so much more.” The fitted plain weave jacket comes  in black or navy and the pants are optional. A nice breath of fresh air  amidst all the workwear. It’s available at AcneStudios. </span></div><img alt="Sneaker News Top 30 Sneakers of 2010" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-178414" height="275" src="http://images.sneakernews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/sneaker-news-top-30-sneakers-of-2010-summary.jpg" title="sneaker-news-top-30-sneakers-of-2010-summary" width="400" /><br /><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Last year’s Sneaker News Top 30  list was a smash hit with readers, so with 2010 coming to a close, it’s  time to get down to business again and reveal our selections for the  year’s best sneaker offerings. Anyone can make a list of their favorite  sneakers, but the aim of the SN Top 30 is to capture a cross-section of  the shoes that made the biggest impact on the sneaker world in the last  year. After scouring all the countless kicks that dropped in 2010, we  began narrowing down the best of the best and eventually put together  what we felt to be a strong representation of the finest footwear to  release during the last 365 days. The tentative top 30 choices were then  passed along to members of our staff and other sneaker associates to  rank from 1 to 30, with the average results eventually going on to  become the final order for the official Sneaker News Top 30 Sneakers of  2010 list. </span></div><b>     <span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">TOP TREND 1 - </span><a href="" name="NEW_MINIMALISM" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">NEW MINIMALISM</a><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> - EXPENSIVE LOOKING NEUTRALS - CAMEL COATS </span></span></b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">     - The 2011 trend is for 'Statement Coats' in beautiful quality      materials such as camel cashmere mixtures or soft neutrals -      tobacco, taupe, Grey, navy, oyster, white and black.  Invest      in clothes that are wearable time and again.  These coats shown      below are all from matchesfashion.com coat range.  As you can see,      they move from tobacco, dark camel, golden camel to creamy      oyster giving a tone and length to suit everyone.  The      coats above are from Jaeger, Hobbs and Alexon AW10 and all      masters at high street quality tailoring.

Features of 2011 Anorak Fashion worldwide

<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Athletic-inspired anoraks were fringe fashion last year, but are now  mainstream. They’re a super lightweight, casual cover-up that’ll give  your look a sporty edge with lots of style. You’ll find them shiny or  matte, long or short, and neutral or colored. Fabrications like nylon,  polyester and acetate give them a particularly authentic active  appearance.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">I like anoraks best when they’re contrasted with dressy attire, like a  little black dress, dark jeans, slacks, swanky walk shorts and fancy  shoes. This is a rather avant-garde, high fashion look, so it’s a little  tricky to pull off if you don’t get the components right.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">I’ll bypass this trend – the less sporty <strong>trench</strong> is more my style.
