Valentines Day is the day of Love. In nature, love/mating and its desire is generally elaborately displayed with gorgeous colors and movements - so Fashion Paradise says away with the usual pinks and reds that everyone else will be wearing - you're not an everyone-else-will-be-wearing kind of gal." Instead, we suggest emulating something beautiful in nature that, when in the thought of love, becomes even more magnificent ... we're talking about the peacock! Now, we don't mean that you should don a bunch of feathers and start making shrill cries in the night (although, if you do feel so inclined, that's up to you ;-.) No, we're talking about the gorgeous colors and richness of this brazen, admirably stunning avian - that's the angle we're approaching from. You don't have to tell people you're channelling a peacock, just know that in this ensemble, you are the most magnificent bird in the wild. Strut like you know it, you incredible creature, for we can't help but love and admire you!

Ahh - the rich, luxurious look and feel of velvet. There's nothing like it. We associate velvet with extravagance, desirability and just plain "yummy-ness". The key to wearing this trend is to keep everything to a minimum, avoiding bright accessories and fancy silhouettes, as they will add an over-the-top drama to your ensemble. The point of wearing velvet is to look sophisticated, chic and sexy. Velvet probably originated in Kashmir, in and around the 14th century. It was so highly regarded that King Richard II of England requested that his body be wrapped in velvet upon his death. For a very long time, velvet was considered a luxury item because it was so difficult to clean, but now, with dry cleaning and also with so many different types of washable velvet fabrics available, velvet has become the luxurious look that doesn't have to come with the difficulty, or luxurious price tag. Fashion Paradise has chosen some gorgeous velvet pieces to help further your "yummy-ness" -- mmmmm, delicious!
