Hot Catch Phrases Tops ! #selfie #raving #festivals #killingit

 It's summer time so you better have your summer tees and tops ready! Wondering where to get  an affordable one that makes an awesome impression? Well I've got the places for you -- www.necessaryclothing.com and www.forever21.com . Yup. As usual, these fashion-forward stores have their finger on the pulse of what's hot!

The Selfie Top Craze

You know you do it!

Ever since Mr. Steve Jobs created the technology to allow you to take selfies with your cell it has become a universal, everyday practice of millions of people everywhere. The Selfie trend is currently at its height now; even inspiring the ever popular " #Selfie" song by the Chainsmokers!  

Then it took on a whole new life when it was revealed on New Years Eve that the Number One most used word of the year was "Selfie"! Then Webster Dictionary was like " Ok guys, let's make this an official word". And then they totally did. YES. The Selfie Craze is inescapable and absolutely awesome. So it has also inspired actual clothing and these tees are ingenious, cute and just plain epic!

Have Parents/Grandparents who constantly ask you"What's with this Selfie business?" Well, there's a tee for that.Let them read it and stop annoying you with these modern age questions. OMG, finally.

A twist on this selfie trend would be an excellent use of wordplay. You can see this interesting twist displayed in the tee below. Word play on new words is so exciting! It doesn't matter how anyone responds to this tee. All that matters is that it's just plain epic. 

Yes, Yes YES!!! Omg Yes.Well done Necessary Clothing.Well done!

Don't want to be too in your face with your top? Don't wanna be too funny? Well then just be plainly honest. Some of us want people to know for sure 100% that we are the ones that totally took that pic. Some of us also get annoyed when everything in our mirror pix are perfect except for the backwards words on our cool tops. Well then this tee is perfect for you guys, it totally gets the struggle of the backwards words! 

Hate how your catch phrase tops alwayscome out backwards with a selfie?Well, they've got a top for that. This is INGENIOUS! 

                            There are of course, self-explanatory 

            ones that just say, well " Selfie" . 

Then there are tops that are brutally and wonderfully honest such as "Celfie Queen" seen here. Yup. How many of you girls out there deem yourself the Queen of Selfies? How many of you are dubbed the Queen of Selfies in your social group?  Everyone has one. So whether you are self-proclaimed or the actual Selfie Queen--this top is totally for you! You know what it is! 

The Dance Top Craze

Yes, EDM, Coachella , Lollapaloza, TomorrowLand, Burning Man--the season is upon us. While some festivals have come and gone there are still many more to look forward to. Whether a musical festival ; a secret totally illegal warehouse party or a popular dance style, there are tops for that!

1) Twerkin

Let's start with---Twerkin. Why? Well cause it's something that went viral after the whole Miley Cyrus stunt on the awards show. Yes, Twerkin has been around for a while and is an evolved, tweaked version of typical booty-shaking dance moves--but it is something inescapable. I'm not going to get into the whole super political-racial-philosophical debate of how when a white girl does something it is more favorable in the media than when a black girl does it, blah blah blah. It is what it is. And blond haired blue eyed Miley knew exactly what to do to make her career take off in an explosive way. Nope, I'm not posting any videos or pix of Miley twerking. Not even. She doesn't even have a butt--has anyone ever noticed that? It's all bone...eww :(

Next to the Dirty South; I'm pretty sure that New York IS indeed the city of Twerking. Damn you Miley Cyrus, damn you!

2)Rave 

Rave is a lifestyle. Carefree dancing and completely uninhibited.
Yup, they've got a top for that!

Come on. If you are in your teens, 20s or early 30s and you never raved in your life, you totally wasted your life. Seriously. The neon colors. Strobe lights. The  glow-in-the-dark light sticks. The smoke. The messy and sticky floor. The crazy face paint. The sweating dancing machines that are people. The nonstop crazy and highly questionable shots handed out. The crazy costumes that make every rave Halloween and no one thinks twice about it. The pure ecstasy of dancing to electronic music (trance, house, dubstep, or all 3-in-1) . Or the actual Ecstasy that you're taking ( or Molly, the more extreme version of E). I don't approve of drug use, but we all know that it's present in that scene. But you don't have to do the drugs to love the rave scene. Now even though costumes; crazy wigs; fairy wings and hair garlands are the typical choice of clothing to wear--it doesn't hurt to wear a top that actually says it. :)

3) Festivals 

Love expressed? Check.Flowers shown? Check.Ready for a festival now!

Now music festivals are unique creations. They are filled with many different types of people. Most of these people fall under the categories of "chillers" or "hippies" . Some people are way off the reservation; but most just wanna spread love and happiness and come together to experience life changing, soul-bending music. 

Any Beatles top is the most cliche,common and universal way
of screaming out to people
 " Hey! I believe in love and unity!
The Beatles are mad deep and so am I!"
 Love it or hate it,your point of views sure come across
when you wear this band.

No description needed.

The message that you will often hear is to "love" and "live happy" and things of this nature.  And people LOVE to spread messages and if their dress style doesn't suggest it; then the wording on their clothing surely does! So these tops are perfect for any kind of festival honestly.

That's right! I'm a lover not a fighter!
Now let's dance and prove that the power
of love can conquer all hate!

Be happy! Look at my groovy tee!
Obviously this is a drama free zone. Now--let's dance!

Spring Color Trends that Will Rock Your World!

I'm rocking my Spring 2014 colors of
 Cobalt Blue and Red.
Yes. Red is BACK!

Hi all! I'm back from another hiatus but I haven't once lost touch with what's going on out there. So technically the first day of Spring was about a week or so ago. I know. It's cold, it's wet and (maybe) still snowing outside. But according to the calendar, it is Spring time. So I'm gonna pretend it's the season and I'm going to start showing my spring colors! I'll give you a brief break down of the colors you will be seeing this season that will be essential for your closet! 


Spring Color Trends that Will Rock Your World!

1) Cobalt Blue

Bring Spring out in style with this
 Cobalt Blue Dress . It features a
cleverly placed pattern from the collar to the hem.

Two words. Cobalt Blue. This will be one your most essential IT colors of the Spring. Get that cute bag in cobalt blue. That sophisticated jump suit in cobalt blue. That fitted pencil skirt in cobalt blue. That knock 'em dead dress in cobalt blue. Those unique flats in cobalt blue. That cheery purse in cobalt blue. Yes, go for it.

Say "YES" to Cobalt Blue shoes!
These classical beauties are vintage style
with a kick of NOW with intricate cut outs!

Cobalt blue is a unique color. It's strikingly bold. It's an interesting cross between purple and navy. It makes those brown eyes of yours pop. It's also a color that can make or break an outfit. So play with it wisely and in moderate dosages for outfit compilations. 

Yes, the Pencil Dress is slimming and timeless.
 Try it in Cobalt Blue this Spring.
You won't have to do sacrifice your fav fashion piece 
due to a lack of a very "now"color.

If you see a dress online that is listed as "cobalt blue"and another also listed as "cobalt blue" that doesn't look similar in color don't fret! That is because there are various different hues of cobalt blue. 

This collared, flowered lace beauty
is classically beautiful and endearing!

The difference between cobalt blue and other blues, no matter what dark hue it’s in; is that it exudes an electrifying color that can double as two in one. So choose the best hue for you!

These Cobalt Blue tights will add
a lot of excitement to your  wardrobe!

This H&M Orange Color jacket
 is so chic and fresh!

2) Orange. That's right. Orange. Coral for the past three seasons always hinted at the hint of orange, just a hint, a forecast. Now Orange has arrived. 

Go Bohemian Chic in this
 lively orange print jumpsuit!

Orange is here in lovely jumpsuits-->

This is actually a crop top
with over sized flutter sleeves! Wow!

  <---Sophisticated tops 

This A-line orange gown features shoulder cut-outs.
 Elegant yet trendy!

--and totally
 glam dresses!---->



















3) Red

This dress is the perfect cocktail dress
for any special occasion. Plus-it's red!

Yes it's true. Red is back. Coral is no longer the new red. Red is now the new red! It's refreshing to see Red take it's rightful place in Spring color trends. I'm elated. You should be too! 

How cute is this picnic inspired raincoat?!!

For Coral lovers, do not worry--it will still be around. But now red can be more easily found in any store in any shape or style you wish.

See? Coral is still around.
 Love these fitted shorts.

4)Trending Bright Lips Colors 

A) Orange Lips

When does Zooey Deschanel ever get a shade wrong?
Answer=never.

I have been dying to wear this color since I bought my first orange shade of lipstick three years ago. I love how the shade I wear glows on my lips and illuminates my skin tone. You will love what orange does for you too!

The gorgeous Olivia Wilde knows
all about the Orange color trend!

                                          !!!: Caution: !!!

Not all orange shades are perfect for you. Unless you are the type of gal that likes to wear outlandish colors that fit a Rave scene more than they do in realistic everyday life; the hue of the orange lipstick/gloss you choose must be carefully and craftily chosen.

Many of you girls have seen make up ads featuring models/celebrities wearing orange shades by now. Usually these models/celebrities are featured with porcelain, "snow white" colored skin. Generally some girls will assume that if you are "snow white" light you will have it easier than girls with a huge dosage of Melanin in their skin. It's sad but true. It's also easier to choose what other makeup to apply because orange is very colorful and those extremely light skin tones are thirsty for splashes of color. But oh no--what if you are a red head?! Or you have yellowish blond hair?! No matter how "snow white" your skin is, your hair color will have a massive impact on what shade looks good on you. It's not easy for any of us girls!

Have color? Be careful. Choose wisely. Shop at stores where you can return a failed makeup shade (such as CVS) or go to a Sephora or Mac specialist to make sure you know what you need before you make that purchase. Orange is a serious color that can go seriously wrong if you don't choose wisely! Good luck girls! 

Make sure to choose an orange shade that will flatter your skin tone!
Not all orange shades are made for everyone!

B)  Hot Pink

Emma Stone is rocking the Magenta look 
in this Revlon Ad. 

Magenta is the safest hot pink!  Hot Pink is fun but deadly, so Magenta is  always the safest way to go. It looks lovely especially with darker skin tones. All major makeup companies are pushing it so you can buy expensive, Ala Sephora, or inexpensive , Ala Covergirl.

Look at how Magenta glows on this girl
with a lovely bronzed skin tone!

Trust me girls, once you possess the perfect Magenta, the whole process to get it will be totally worth it! 

This Berry shade lip gloss has the overtones of
Magenta sparkles---it is breathtaking!

C) Nude Lips. Yes, they are still in style and probably always will be. Which is great. Because let's be honest girls, make up trends come and go, but the Natural Look is forever. For Spring and Summer time break out the bright pink colors to mirror the blooming flowers and let Spring in!

Scandal's Kerri Washington knows
the power of a good nude pink lip!

That's all for now ! Working on my next blog entry for you all soon! Have fun with Spring, and as always--make sure to get some Sugar and Spice in your life! 

-Elisheva SugarandSpiceandEverythingNice

Surprise! It's a Special Edition AMA (American Music Awards) Hit, Miss and theGray Edition!

Hi all--so I finally revealed my several months old blog entry--but I planned to write one on the AMAs as well! I always see these "Hit and Miss" articles and I figured " Hey, why not me too?" So here it is. But with a little twist--sometimes there is gray in a world of black and white I've discovered . So there is also a "The Gray" Section for those who didn't go all the way. 

I want to start with the Gray, then move on to the Hits and Misses. That way hopefully these Red Carpet girls can recover properly!

The Gray

#1 Katy Perry

Dear Katy Perry, I love your fun, bubbly , unique and 1950s -Esque sense of style. Sexy, flirty and fun is you. But the frock you wore tonight was sooooo NOT a  complete Hit to me at all. Or a complete miss. It is somewhere in that in between world of the Gray in Fashion land. This is a place that Fashion Mavens like you should never be Ms. Katy Perry.

She donned this strapless Oscar De la Renta gown. It was long , elegant and highlighted with white polka dots and pink and red  flowers. Normally, a dress like that would fit the typical Pin -Up Girl Katy Perry dress code---except the length was too much! There were no hot, silky smooth legs! No curvy body , no trademark perky bosom, no high heels to be visibly seen.

Also, I didn't like how it looked on her honestly. It was too dark, too drab. It had the makings of a Pin Up girl look, except it was missing that shortness, that sexiness, that Katy Perry  "OOMP". But then again, the same can be said for Lady Gaga this year who was dressed super modest as she arrived on a Human Horse. So this is formal Katy Perry. Not my most favorite look from her but it is a look of her's none the less.




#2 Naya Rivera

Ms. Naya Rivera soon to be Ms. Naya Rivera -Big Sean--whoa. You turn up the sexy volume in this dress. Looking at the wide open plunging neckline of this Michael Kors dress, we can see that she is a grown woman and a force to be reckoned it. Looking at her, I kept seeing a younger Jennifer Lopez because this is so Jennifer Lopez's style. That being said, because it is so Jennifer Lopez, I fear it ages Naya by at least ten years. And there's no need for her to grow up that fast. She's  sexy and mature, but too mature. Her Glee co-star managed to be both sexy and youthful at the same time. I personally feel that her dress needed a little bit of that balance. So it goes in the Gray area for me. But there's no doubt that she is super hot in this dress.

#3 Kesha

Kesha. You were looked over after cameras rushed to you on the red carpet. Why?  Because you came there looking like Lady Gaga. And you disappointed them when they found out you werent the GaGa. Hello Kesha, you are freaking KESHA. You are supposed to look like you are returning from a party at 7am and you slept on the street and you reek of alcohol and your make up is all smudged up like crazy. Or look like you're going to the sickest rave ever with tons of GLITTER.  Aka,  you are supposed to look like a Hot Mess.  Instead you went for formal wear but you did it as if you were Lady Gaga herself--hench the confusion of the paparazzi. You all gave us a heart attack ! You can look fancy just don't make it look like someone else that is ten times more famous than you are! Please readjust your wardrobe and make yourself Red Carpet fab in your own fancy Kesha style. This look isn't you or so hot at all.

The Hits

#1 Taylor Swift

The moment her golden Jimmy Choo gladiator feet went strutting down the Red Carpet in this little number it was obvious that she had the best dress of the night! There is NO doubt that Ms. Taylor Swift stole the show tonight in this Julien Macdonald  fiery golden mini dress . The sequins created a mesmerizing pattern that we simply couldn't stop staring at ! The faux nude triangle in the lower neckline area was a naughty, extra touch of sexy! The shortness gave her the power to show off those long model-esque legs. The gold gladiator heels she wore were just the little touch she needed to this glittery dress. Perfect 10! Kudos to you, in this dress you were definitely some real trouble,trouble, trouble!

#2  Zendaya

Zendaya, oh what a beauty you are! If I had to pick a runner up to Taylor Swift, it would be you my dear! Wearing a gorgeous all white Donna Karan piece, she looks like a real live goddess! With her gorgeous bare shoulders and a one-sleeve draping that falls softly across her body she looks both age appropriate and super chic! I can't tell you how much I am in love with this outfit!



#3 Lady Gaga

Uh -oh--did someone say goddess? Well Lady Gaga decided to get her Goddess look on to in this lovely Versace Lilac colored gown. Adding to its Goddess appeals it also features glam silver accented jewelry chains in the bodice area. It was perfectly and tastefully fitted on her--she was so elegant and modest looking . Oh, and let's not forget the whole arriving on a Human Horse thing, lol. But still her long cascading hair, her soft natural-looking makeup--it all screams Goddess. Great Job Gaga.

#4 Ciara

Oh yes. Ciara, this dress is epic! It plays with both nude and lace on a whole new level and its so creative that it's a clear winner! It's so runway and chic that I am genuinely impressed! She is wearing a gorgeous J  . Mendel dress! It's just the right amount of lace to cover up all the naughty parts and still, it has a sophistication to in spite of all the skin showing. Love it!

 #5 Ariana Grande

I love the way---the way you tried soooo hard to pull off the whole glam 50s-60s girl crooner look. Ariana. I love you. I love your awkward looks, your tone, your incredibly mature voice. You have the voice and body to be reckoned with.

Wait. I lied. You didn't "try" Ariana. You were dazzling in this Dolce and Gabbana gown. You really nailed the look--I believed it. This dress fit you like a glove! Seeing you perform in this dress wasn't even necessary to prove you are the 50s -60s Hollywood starlet crooner. You are one in a million. Keep crooning baby!

#6 Jenna Ushkowitz

Well hello hello you total hottie. I am in LOVE with your look! In this lovely coral Raoul dress, you show just a tiny bit of cleavage and a well fitted bodice. You look fresh, youthful and sexy! You are beyond amazing looking, I love it! Ms. Jenna Ushkowitz, please keep it up!


#7 Daisy Fuentes

Ah Ms. Daisy Fuentes! What a breathe of fresh air. Your look on the Red Carpet is Timeless Beauty. It's a sleeveless beaded ivory top with a silky Mermaid style skirt that is effortlessly beautiful. It's a look that can be both vintage and modern and still look amazing in any era! This Tadashi dress is a hit, and so are you Daisy Fuentes!

 Misses

#1 Rihanna

Hey Rihanna. Nice half dress. NOT. Hello. This fails in so many ways. It doesn't go together at all. It literally makes no sense at all. I was feeling the skirt sort of , but the top makes it trashy. So in all honesty there is no redeeming quality.  It doesn't even matter who it is that you are wearing. Please put on some clothes Ri-Ri. Or take it all off. Cause this isn't working for me at all. Thanks, K bye!

#2 Sarah Silverman

Um ok, this dress is all kinds of horrible on Ms. Sarah Silverman. First of all, she is as pale as a ghost. She should never be caught dead wearing this neon yellow color. It whitens you out too much--in spite of all the obvious bronzer you sprayed yourself with. Also, the cut of the dress is awkward and  completely out of proportion. Were you serious with this dress? Part of me thinks no since you are also a comedian Silverman. In that case, hardy har har. You totally got me. That was funny, you wearing this awful dress. Good one there.



#3 Jennifer Hudson

Ms. Jennifer Hudson, seriously? You lost all of that weight to squeeze yourself into a tight fitted dress in an awful color that doesn't do your body or skin tone justice? Oh no. No. no. Total Miss. You look like tangerine that was peeled that someone tried to put the skin back onto again. And the inside of the dress is pink--really? The deadly orange and pink combination color?! I don't know what you were thinking when you slipped into this little number, but it did you and your looks NO justice at all. Completely unflattering.
We know you can do better.


#4 Carly Steele

Omg. Wtf? Did a Seven year old  make this?  The stitching is awful. The color is bad. The patterns conflict with each other. Ugly  bad, really ugly and super bad! End of Story!


#5 Lil Mama 

No. No, no, no , no , no. Oh Lil Mama, y?  You look like u raided Lady Gaga's closet and snatched out a random dress and one of her wigs on your way out. It's a nice fitted bodice...black is a good color on you...green may be too...but when you put it all together with that sci-fi capey thing you have going on... it's just one big huge HOT MESS. And by a hot mess I mean it looks like you're legitly wearing a Halloween costume. Even Lady Gaga would rethink this look but you wore it proudly. Oy vey! Total  miss hon.



Conclusion

Hey guys wrote this randomly, only selected a few dresses from the bunch that I HAD to comment on. Let me know what you think! And remember to get some Sugar and Spice in your life!
