Scrubs aren’t the only things these days with a tie waist. Wait–before you close the page because it reminds you of why you passed on medical school (You wouldn’t be caught dead in wide purple oompa-loompa pants!), realize that tie waist trousers have gained a whole new – and gorgeous - meaning. Whether you’re a dress-up kind of gal or more of a laid-back chick, there’s a pair for you…

If a pricey dinner followed by a cheesy box office movie sounds too cliché for your latest Valentine’s Day tastes, go for a cheaper, more romantic version by cooking with your cupid and renting from the local video store–all without leaving your humble abode. Now, just because you’re not stepping foot into the outdoors doesn’t mean you should look ragged. Au contraire – take this opportunity to look a bit sexier than you could outside your house.
Fashion Formula for a Romantic Night In = Kimono Shrug + Sexy Lingerie-as-Top + Brown Bermuda Shorts + Peep Toe Wedge Shoes.
Pleated Kimono Cardigan | $69 at Bebe
Silk Georgette Halter Babydoll | $68 at Victoria’s Secret

Reminiscing about your ballerina days is as easy as dusting off your old black leotard (or buying a new one if you threw it away), pairing it with light-colored ripped jeans, and a pair of (real or pseudo) ballet slippers.
Where to sport this look: If you still attend ballet classes, you can wear it to the studio, but for those who’d rather look like a ballerina than act like one, wear this casual look while shopping, getting your hair cut, or having lunch with an acquaintance.

Shorts in the middle of winter may sound ludicrous (especially if you live in a windy, foggy, snowy, and/or rainy city), but with some heavy-duty tights and major confidence, you can pull it off without looking like you missed the memo about winter.
Where to sport this look: Just because you’re in shorts doesn’t mean you need to frolic in a field of greens. This sophisticated look can be worn to a chic restaurant, the theatre, an art/fashion show, but never on an ice-skating date with your new man (even opaque tights can rip).

Last December, we featured a particularly posh sweater from Anthropologie that mysteriously disappeared off the face of the earth (ok, fine, their website) early the next week. While browsing the online aisles this evening, however, we found it again!
Back by popular demand is the Copenhagen Cardigan, in a new, but perhaps not improved color. Enjoy!

Last weekend, Omiru attended a fashion show and anti-violence rally produced by P.A.R.T.I. Squad, or Positive Alternative Recreational Teambuilding Impacting Program. Known for cultural diversity training and mentoring programs, P.A.R.T.I. Squad dedicated the evening to the memory of Irwin Dillon, a P.A.R.T.I. Squad volunteer who lost his life while reportedly trying to break up a fight last December.
The style of the night was unmistakably Urban. Common
themes throughout the show included halter tops, deeply draped
necklines, and miniskirts. Silhouettes were generally body-conscious
and tightly clung to the models’ curves. Colors, like that of the Spring 2006 collections, tended to be neutral, with forays into bright turquoises, blues, greens, and oranges.
Designers featured in the show included Felix Harris (Minoca), Latoya Skinner (Chan.nel Karama), Cynser (Baysik Clothin’ Co), Nikki D Vine (L.I.P. - Live in Peace), Keana Dollar (High MaintNance), Vladimir Ulyashin (Body Wear by Nina), Dominique Giselle (Giselle), and Osofo Clothing store. Our friend, designer Goldie Chan of goldiechan clothing headlined the show.
"The spirit and dedication behind the show was truly noble. I’m glad to have been a part of it," said Chan.
