Page 11 The Lion’s Eye March 17, 2010 Eve on Entertainment Thimblgs & Threads ~ Mixing it ap! By Cait Hazinsky — Lion s Eye Staff Writer- ceh5240@psu.edu Tory Burch and Valentino have bro- ken away from the pack and gone to a softer place of fashion bringing back the soft neu- trals, but unlike the past they boost their neu- tral designs with a splash of tomato red or some blues! : Tory Burch has made her way up the fashion scale this year with her fresh outlook on color usage. Burch has her own way of mixing matching pieces of clothing and mak- ing them look more modern and relevant, which can be tough to accomplish when deal- ing with neutral colors. Her entire line isn’t comprised solely of neutrals; she keeps it fun with some other colors as well. Here are ten of her fashion tips for this season: “Think utilitarian with a dose of high glam- 99 our 1. Boost neutrals—mix grey, black, or camel ~ with a jolt of red or blue 2. Play with textures—mix sequins with oil- cloth : 3. Balance silhouette—slouchy and slim can . go together 4. Be modern—you can wear your t-shirts un- derneath your dresses! 5. Wear shorts and sequins to work—top it off ~ with some flats or boots 6. Layer, layer, layer! 7.Accessorize unexpectedly—whatever you think looks good, try it! 8.Borrow from the boys—wear some work- man’s style boots 9.Cinch it—belts! 10.Polish it off—capes with brooches are back in! (http://blog.toryburch.com/?cat=27) Valentino’s trick is using the neutral palate as well, but by shortening the hemline to make for a stylish, more chic look. This fashion runway is filled with short little dress- es ranging from light tans and beige to grays and soft browns. What separates this cloth- ing line from the rest is the attention to detail . in every piece. Every dress has a mixture of ruffles or it’s paired with a clutch that accen- tuates the color scheme and has some type of design and detail. Unlike Burch, Valentino . went with an all neutral palate, just added some detail to each outfit.

Jill Stuart, Rodarte, and Michael Kors are cut- ting their fabrics in order to show off more skin! You could go for a seductive and re- vealing black number from Michael Kors or go for a sassy, yet concealing dress by Roland Mouret. Here’s some advice: if you’re more conservative, take some of Tory Burch’s rec- ommendations and layer up! Mix a cute little mini dress with a plain long-sleeved t-shirt underneath, throw on a pair of textured stock- ings and a pair of flats (or boots even) and ac- cessorize! There’s your stylish outfit for the more conservative. : Still keep in mind: neutrals aren’t the ~only trend out there, so play up your ward- robe and mix it up with some modern metal- lics, chic menswear, and even some feather accents if you're daring enough!
