Launched on the 2nd of July, the new scent is actually the extension of her “Love and Glamour” perfume, only with woody floral notes. “Love and Light” will hit Kohl’s and other stores in September. According to Jennifer Lopez, the new scent will help women express themselves and their deepest emotions.

“Love & Light is an extension of ‘Love & Glamour’. It’s the next incarnation. With Love & Light, I wanted to create a fragrance that was less about the world around you and more about your inner light and your spirit. It’s about how you feel inside; it’s not about your outside world,” she says.
From the very first glance at the bottle, we can feel the high dose of femininity and sophistication it contains. It resembles feminine curves and uses subtle iridescent notes for extra sophistication. Once the main notes are concerned, rose crystal absolute, apricot, jasmine, mandarin, red currant, patchouli, musk and praline are the ones, alluring our senses.
The ad campaign of the fragrance, which has already been filmed, is equally interesting, reviving old Hollywood glamour and a noticeable vintage touch. Jennifer poses in a silky gown, wearing perfectly styled cascading waves.

The Connection Between Color & Character - Fashion Tendencies

You may have heard that there is a close connection between color and character. The way you dress can tell a lot about your character actually. According to psychologists, the color of clothing pieces that a person chooses depends on several factors. In fact this is not because of the latest fashion tendencies that you opt for a certain color. Your decision is highly determined by your mood, state of mind and even some character traits. Your mood and state of mind is quite changeable, which will mean updating your wardrobe colors quite occasionally. However, when the word goes about character, it’s always stable and this will mean that you’ll choose almost the same shades throughout your life. Are you ready to know the truth? Read on and find some details about your favorite colors.

Pink color. If you love pink and all its hues, this states that you are quite feminine and girlish, tender and sensitive. Subconsciously you are a very romantic and fragile personality.

Yellow color. You are likely to be a very sociable, easily-mingling, optimistic and at the same time a little bit light-headed person. People especially appreciate your great sense of humor and wittiness.

Red color. Those opting for the flashy and vivid color of red, tend to be quite passionate and cheerful. From time to time you are keen on appearing quite hot-tempered.

Green color. Green stands for the hardworking, confident, reasonable and well-balanced character. Those in love with green put career in the first place in their lives and forget about romanticism and love.

Blue color. You give a lot of place to stability and calmness in relationships, rather than frequent changes and passionate impulses.

Violet color. If your favorite color is violet, you might be quite a creative person, who values exquisiteness, sophistication and beauty. Mood swings are very common for you.

Orange color. Orange describes the amorous, joyous, emotional and sincere character.

Black color. If you mostly wear black clothes, this proves that you are quite a shy and reserved person. You try to avoid attention and try to stay away from environment.

White color. You are a dreamer. You give a lot of importance to lightness and loftiness.

My favorite colors are violet and white, and I’m really a dreamer, who is also quite creative and who appreciates sophistication and beauty. What about you?

Kate Bosworth in the New Cotton “Fabric of My Life” Ads - Fashion News

Lovely 28-year-old actress Kate Bosworth has been selected as the new face of Cotton Incorporated. Gorgeous Kate features in the “Fabric of My Life” ads, flaunting her fantastic blonde locks, dreamy eyes and fair skin complexion. However, besides modeling in the campaign, she had also to sing the popular theme song of the campaign. Take a look at the fabulous photos and watch the video to have a more vivid imagination.
According to Glenn Sciachitano, the advertising director of Cotton Incorporated, Kate was the ideal option for the campaign: “Kate was an ideal choice for this year’s commercial. Her beauty, her status as a Hollywood actress and a fashion icon were a perfect fit for our strategy: to show women that cotton is a part of all aspects of their lives, even if that life includes a walk on the red carpet.”

Actually for this particular advertisement, Cotton Incorporated has been looking for an actress, not a singer to bring out the fashion side. Ric Hendee, senior vice president of consumer marketing for Cotton Inc. told WWD: “In year three we sought out someone else who had a cinema background and we put the music part behind and focused on more associations with nice clothes and…frankly the editorial side of fashion. We were looking for people from the movies who were really seen as young, female fashion leaders and Kate came to the forefront quite quickly with that kind of perspective.”
About the fact that she had also to sing in the campaign, Kate felt quite nervous. As Hendee states: “She was in fact anxious [to sing] and she said this commercial will give her a chance to make her singing debut.”
In the TV commercial Kate is pictured on various backgrounds, like looking through antique books, shopping for jewelry, or filming a movie, and surely during all those times she was wearing cotton. The beautiful actress wears famous designer clothes, such as Prada, Rodarte, Proenza Schouler and Nina Ricci, while Cotton Incorporated presents fashionable pieces in natural cotton, coming in various price points, which you can see at fabricofourlives.com next month.

“The idea is you don’t have to spend designer prices to find beautiful things. You will be able to click on any one item and be directed to manufacturers’ and retailers’ Web sites if you want to buy it. It’s a nice way to show cotton is [available] in all different price points,” Hendee said.
Additionally, Cher Coulter, a popular celebrity stylist, who together with Anthony Franco styled Bosworth for the advertising campaign, stated: “People generally think of cotton as cozy and casual. But high-end designers really capitalize on its versatility to the extent many people may not immediately recognize it as cotton.”
Cotton Incorporated started the “Fabric of My Life” campaign still in 2009. Since then they have always been choosing musical artists as their brand ambassador, like Miranda Lambert, Jazmine Sullivan, Zooey Deschanel in 2009 and Leona Lewis and Colbie Caillat in 2010. This is the first time the brand will be represented by adorable actress Kate Bosworth.

Heidi Klum to Launch Second QVC Jewelry Collection - Fashion News 2011

If you have always admired Heidi Klum’s style, now you have a great chance to borrow a piece of it in terms of fashion accessories, since the supermodel has launched a new jewelry collection for QVC, called Wildlife by Heidi Klum, which is set to debut on September 8, during a Fashion’s Night Out in Manhattan. The ex Victoria’s Secret supermodel is becoming more and more involved in fashion industry lately. After releasing details about her signature Shine fragrance, Heidi is taking hands to jewelry. Take a look at the stunning pieces the supermodel has designed and pick out your favorites.

The collection featured 35 fabulous pieces with prices ranging from $30 to $200. Heidi’s flea market trips served as a great source of inspiration for designing this gorgeous collection. According to the supermodel, jewelry shouldn’t be simple and discreet; instead she brings back costume jewelry and encourages women to wear spectacular accessories: “All of the pieces are statement pieces. The only reason to wear costume jewelry is to wear something large — something you can’t do with real jewelry because it would be too expensive.”
As a result we see eye-catching necklaces, rings and bracelets, all of which are granted with a vintage flair and classically defined shapes. All the pieces are made of antique metals, like silvertone and brasstone, and gemstones such as opal, quartz or hematite. The complete collection will be manufactured by TCJC Inc.

Heidi’s collaboration with QVC isn’t new, as the star worked with the brand still in 2006. However, because of infringement rights accusations, made by Van Cleef & Arpels, she had to quit selling her products in 2009: “We fought with Van Cleef & Arpels for over a year and a half, but we were small fry next to a company like that. But looking back, I’m quite happy to be doing something new. I feel free now with this. I can reach more people with costume jewelry, the prices are great and I can make big pieces. It’s way more fun.”
Despite the unpleasant legal problems, Heidi’s first line of jewelry had quite a great success, and consequently we have high expectations from her Wildfire collection as well.
