Fashion's look-back decade
The fashion world was riding high as the decade began. Luxury was the buzzword, and style lovers couldn’t wait to get their hands on the next designer bag or pair of pumps. Exotic skins, fur and premium denim were in demand.
What a different picture it was this year, after the crash, with “shopping in your closet” the norm, chunky costume jewelry more prevalent than pricey gold designs, and a style setter in the White House more fond of shopping at J. Crew and indie designers than Bergdorf Goodman and Oscar de la Renta.
When the decade began, style seers predicted that futuristic icy blue shades, silver surfaces and plasticized finishes would be popular, but they never materialized, says Sharon Graubard, a trend analyst.
“The thing is that 9/11 happened early in the decade, and we went into cocooning. We wanted warmth and protection and comfort,” says Graubard, senior vice president at Stylesight, an online trend content provider for fashion and related industries.

Men’s braided hairstyles are becoming a popular way to create interest within your hairstyle. More and more men are seeking hairstyles that are unique, that are different and that are easy to manage. Braided hairstyles are the answer to all of these issues when it comes to your hair and taking advantage of the braided hairstyles can be an effective way to create an easy to style way to wear the hair.




Why bother: Most men want a single product to keep up with the wide range of “in” hairstyles without increasing bathroom clutter.
