Love or Loathe: Silver Jeans

By -
Maybe I am slowly preparing for a future as a street performer. I've been playing with silver jeans in Polyvore, and I can't help but think they'd be the perfect thing when you want to feel casual but still look exciting. Their metallic sheen would require a certain body confidence as the reflecting light would highlight everything. I've looked and looked, but in order to get jeans that are metallic rather than just grey, you have to pay a pretty penny. The best pair I've found is Diesel's "Lowky" at ASOS for a whopping $302.82.



Would you ever wear metallic pants? Do I need therapy before I paint my face silver?

I would absolutely wear them, except for one fact. Any jeans with that much personality are bound to be extremely low-cut, as are those in your collages. I need way more fabric than that to cover my ghetto-booty.

That said, were someone to make an affordable pair of silver jeans that would cover my butt, I would wear 'em in a heartbeat.

Well I have to admit, when I first saw the silver jeans picture, strippers and back alleys came to mind (sorry!) but after a second look, I think I understand the appeal. I mean, I like shiny skirts and heels, so why not jeans? I think that as long as you don't have an apple bottom and you are in relatively good shape, a skinny pair of silver jeans would look very hip.

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at

Dramatic Makeup

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
