Cute Clothing For Pets

Posted on January 4, 2012 by Elliot Dean

Humans have been clothing themselves since the early ages, but in recent decades we have also decided to cloth animals. Paris Hilton has been renowned for not only carrying her dog round in her handbag but also dressing up her pet in designer clothing.

It is becoming more and more popular to dress your pet, and accessorise with your own outfits. This is never more evident in the land of superficiality, California. Some of the most popular pet clothing is jackets, which can actually be a smart thing on cold winter days. But other outfits may include pyjamas, shoes, bathrobes, bandanas, and even sunglasses!

If you are an owner that likes to treat your animal, you will also want to consider a pet resort for your cat or dog to stay in while you’re away on holidays. Essentially an upmarket boarding facility, a resort is a hotel for pets that pampers their every need.

Do Promo Models Wear Skimpy Clothing?

Posted on November 26, 2011 by Elliot Dean

We’re all aware of the sexy grid girls who walk around at the car races and the beautiful ladies that stand at the train station handing out free samples of shampoo or the latest packet of chips. These females are known as promo girls and their job is to sell a brand!

We also know that sex sells which is why we often find promo staff not only being very attractive, but being quite sexual in terms of their look. So do promo girls wear clothing that is too skimpy, or is it a legitimate tactic that works in the marketplace?

I believe most promotional models are dressed nicely, albeit sexy. They maintain an amount of class that doesn’t tarnish the brand they are promoting, and make people want to buy the product. Obviously there are exceptions to the rule, and some outfits that the girls wear are way too revealing and tacky. This will only harm the perception of the business they are showcasing, so I don’t think we are going to go down a road where things get too smutty.

And even the more revealing models still have nothing on the singers in the film clips seen at 10am on a Saturday morning on Video Hits. And we wonder why the kids of today are dressing slutty! But that’s a topic for another day!

Fashion PR a great publicity spinner

Posted on April 18, 2011 by Elliot Dean

Public relations is a popular way for companies to generate publicity for their business, or specific products or services that they provide. This can be done by organising events or running promotions. A PR agency will organise these events for the client and a number of firms specialise in certain types of PR, such as beauty, lifestyle and fashion.

Fashion PR will focus on marketing and product placement for fashion related clients, which may include a product launch for a new fashion label, or hold an event where the brand is the main sponsor or focus. Fashion and beauty brands are big business, so there it is a very lucrative market to crack. This is why fashion public relations is so popular and a great investment for any marketing budget.

Contemporary Jewellery Completes a Cute Outfit

Posted on January 5, 2011 by Elliot Dean

Summer fashion is well and truly upon us and accessories seem to be the big hit this season. With big retailers such as David Jones and Myer having massive sales to try and get more consumers through their stores, it has opened up a vast array of fashion combinations and styles from the general public.

People are wearing more and more bangles, earrings, rings, necklaces and watches as contemporary jewellery seems to be the perfect compliment to their clothing. Handmade items from smaller end designers are proving most popular, as our fashion conscious searches through local markets and online to find unique designs that suit their personal taste.

The market is demanding originality, quirkiness and fun, and a number of artisans are serving this up on a platter. Doing it for the love of designing rather than the financial rewards, these designers are giving our fashion accessories a great name, and making our jewellery industry move forward.

Shopping For Clothes a Christmas Tradition

Posted on December 23, 2010 by Elliot Dean

It is only 2 days until Christmas and the shopping centres are full of people buying presents of all kinds. One of the most popular gifts are clothes. In fact my girlfriend spent $1100 on clothes just last night…and it wasn’t even on gifts for others! Clothes are the most used things that we buy, although I’m sure 80% of most wardrobes are sitting dormant, with only a few lucky outfits being part of the regular rotation.

People (especially women) love to buy new clothes all the time, as fashions regularly change thanks to online fashion store clothing styles being updated constantly. Getting a clothing gift for a loved one can be tricky, so you need to remember a few tips. Firstly, know their size. Different brands can be a smaller or larger fit too, so be aware of this.

Secondly, don’t try and be too bold. People’s tastes are fixed and buying them a flamboyant top that is very different from their usual outfits will only end in tears. Keep it similar to what they are used to. And finally, keep your receipts. When buying clothes a lot of the time they may not fit or be suitable, so let them exchange it. You tried, you failed, it’s okay!
