The Fashion Police

It is 2015, and January is not only for some New Year's Resolution, not that everyone (including myself) believe in resolutions. January 2015 marks the return of the funniest shows on TV, especially for those who loved "The Fashion Police."

E! has release a video teaser that feaures the show's new cast memebers and the date when it should start airing. Accordingly, it will be this coming 12th of January.

The promo features Joan’s replacement Kathy Griffin and new cast member Brad Goreski serving high fashion along with their castmates Giuliana Rancic and  Kelly Osbourne.

Kelly’s lavender mohawk-pompadour stole the show and is like a sign that the new show have a lot of surprises in store. Definitely something to look forward to, great start for 2015.

Stand-out Looks from SCAD Fashion Show 2014

Savannah College of Art and Design's Annual Fashion Show took place last 17th  of May 2014 and for the first time at the SCAD Museum of Art, which opened in 2011 and was a perfect backdrop for SCAD students' hard work.

Stephen Burrows received the "Andre Leon Talley Life Time Achievement Award." Although
he have been the honoree at SCAD Fashion Show, the graduating students were the true focus of the event as they showed off their final collections to friends and family and the influential people in the world of fashion, not to mention the fashionistas from across the globe.

What made the show truly remarkable are diversity of collections and designs. From rugged to glamour, chic and fancy to edgy and funky. They catered for all kinds of fashion choices and really clicked with the audience. For instance, Hannah Amundson, one of the most talented designers, made an all-gold collection centered around words and used it to describe her generation and social media obsession. On the other hand, another talented designer Amber Nifong burned out rayon to turn it into a couture fabric, while Wesley Berryman created unisex line including a pair of pants which were sheer from the knee down and an interesting pink coat.

Most of the designs were actually quite simple in detail, but you can tell that they were very well thought-out from the details to use of fabric and colors. They all kind of like complement each and makes a uniquely wonderful ensemble.

SCAD once again made a statement, that when it comes to fashion event - their's is not one to miss.
