Denim The Wang Way

Fresh off of the hit collaboration with H&M, Balenciaga's creative director Alexander Wang launches an all denim collection.
Known for his well structured all black with a hint of grey and white collections, Wang admits that he wears jeans every day (because seriously who doesn't wear jeans?). Wang 001 slim leg w/ minimal stretch, 002 relaxed cut, and 003 looser boyfriend fit are the variations the line will be available in.
Not to stray away from his black palette all items from the collection have matte black rivets dissolved into the denim. From $225 up to $295 all nine styles are available now at AlexanderWang.com

Classy vs Trashy: Holiday Party Edition

Alright now! It's party time! Wait not so quickly, what are you wearing? The fun thing about those company holiday parties are you get to (almost) be yourself in better clothes and bring a friend or companion to tag along.

Yes you can finally leave those slacks in the closet, but don't swap them for the mini skirt. There is a such thing as being sexy and professionally presentable. 
A few things to check for while putting together that sexy ensemble:

1. Make sure everything fits correctly and not too tight. Specially for skirts and dresses that tend to rise when you walk. You don't want to look as if you're going to burst out of your clothes at any moment. 

2. Low cut shirts and dresses are becoming more acceptable in the work place, just make sure it's not too low. Usually if the bra is at all visible that's an indicator that your shirt/dress is a tad bit inappropriate. 

3. Splits are meant to show off your legs, not your thighs. If you prefer to show off your legs with or without stockings make sure your split is appropriate. Tilted skirts and dresses are perfect for showing off just enough leg.
