New Years 2012 Celebration Style Tips!

Is it really 2012 already?? I've barely just settled into 2011, now we're moving on to the next year as if a subway train is taking off without us on it!

So. We all know every girl is going to be wearing her dose of shimmer fashion. Yes, the typical sun-bright dress that blinds everyone into "oohs" and "awws", but you have a different trick up your sleeve!

Don't want to look too typical? How about a shimmering top with white washed crop jeans?

Oh! And Happy New Years, Stylishians! <3

Trender Bender

Tired of the constant fashion fads that have their fifteen minutes of fame? Then take a leap off the mainstream bandwagon and try a few of these trend bending ideas:


1. Belting your wintertime sweaters at mid-hip instead of right at the waist will give an urban-vintage spin on your outfit!


2. Try neon hued skinny belts to add to your dark or monochromatic outfit. :)


3. Getting bored with your plain boots that you know you splurged total-designer on? Once you DIY old chain necklaces and wrap them tightly around its ankle, they won't look like such a waste anymore!

Welcome all Stylishians!

The language of style isn't something that is easily picked up after "liking" an ad for Dior's perfumes. 

It wasn't built for everyone.

Just in case you were worried, it's pronounced: "style-ee-shee-ehnz" as in fashion native. Someone who oozes the passion of street chic spotters, camera in hand to snap an upcoming fad, booklet and pen for scratching down must-haves of the season, and an iPhone prepared to bing! with a new tweet on an Alex Wang original.

Like those musicians we all adore with their Nirvana sways and glorious guitar strums, they've been gifted with the "ear". It's all about the intricate notes, detailed crescendos, and powerful bridges.

Style is exactly the same way. Those partnered designers that work endless hours in their artsy rooms to later present the most stunning pieces that become apart of classics like Marc Jacobs and are displayed all over the glossed pages of Elle Magazine. Those are just a fraction of the talented souls that possess the keen "eye" for style. And they're not always sitting in front row seats to Proenza Schouler shows next to the Olsen Twins and they're watchful head-turns.

The chief of the Stylishians just might be cuddled up (no! not at the fashion show), but in their grandmother's hand-crocheted quilts on a breaking sofa in the middle of Wisconsin.

Basically, Stylishians can be anywhere at any time, but no one can deny their "eye" for style and their elite mindset on how to wear creativity on their sleeves...literally. (a.k.a. DIY)

And if you sign up to this blog and follow @ispeakstylish on Twitter, you'll officially become one of them! :)

Stylishians are elite. They're the commanders of fashion. They are the captains of the style ship. And they're fluent in their language.

...So most importantly: do you speak the language of Style?

Clutches and Kisses,
