Campaign Cute
Marc Jacobs, Beyonce’ and other politically-active, fashion-savvy designers have created runway worthy styles supporting the 2012 Barrack Obama presidential campaign. Unlike other political fashion creations that can be boringly simple, these designs are inspired and chic. From bags to clutches, tee-shirts and tanks, rocking your political stance has never been more easy. Pairing this Beyoncé and Tina Knowles tee with the navy clutch by Grace Tsao-Wu and Laura Kofoid, together with your favorite black skinnies couldn’t be a more fashionable way to boldly accent your voting voice.

Get your new year off to a fashionable start with these tips of the trade. Great advice to help you wow at your New Year’s Party, and clean into the rest of 2012. Get inspired with tips from Fashion Designer and Expert Claudia Patel and channel your inner starlet.
Sequined Stripe Minis
Form fitting sequined striped minis have been a hit with celebs on the red carpet this winter. And it’s no wonder why. This tight getup is both sexy and has the right amount of sparkle for this year’s party. Horizontal stripes work best with petite frames, as they add width. Opt for darker colors that give a slimming effect and a few wide stripes, instead of thin if you are shapely.
Tuxedo Jackets
This versatile look can take you from sleek to chic, and can be worn night or day. A truly good investment, you can pair a tuxedo jacket with bold color jeans, a dress or your new black skinny jeans. Is your upper body your problem area? Then draw attention to your legs in this number. Want to keep it classic? Pair a black tuxedo jacket with tight skinny jeans.
Classic LBD with a Twist 
Who says a twisted situation is always negative? In fact, a twist on the classic LBD screams flirty chic. If you would like to keep it simple, the asymmetrical styling of a twisted one-shoulder dress creates a great fashion focal point. Steer clear of necklaces, and opt for drop earrings. Spice it up with a bold color. If you have broad shoulders, stay away from cross over twisted tops that will draw attention to your problem area, and further broaden your shoulders. This look works great on petite frames.
