Be Fashionable Even in Pain
Hello Dear Cynthia Rowley,
I think you have made an amazing job for the BAND-AID Strips design. If I ever cut or hurt myself, I would be looking fashionable even if I am in pain. Each design is unique and stands out from the other boring white and brown band-aids. I think this is a new way to cheer up yourself and make the best of the painful cuts and bruises. Bringing fashion into a life of each person by introducing the colorful BAND-AIDs is also the way to play a "dress up". You can collaborate the outfit and the Band-Aid depending on what you wear that day. If you are ready to go to dinner, the black and white BAND-AID will be perfect match. The other more casual look can go along well with the sparkle colorful BAND-AID.
The most important thing is that "one dollar from the sale of each tin will go to Design Ignites Change, an organization that engages high school and college students in design and architecture projects that address social issues in their own communities."
All the Best and Looking Forward to Your Future Incredible Designs,
KatyaUK

House of Harlow 1960 Sunglasses
Sunglasses are very important especially in the summer with lots of sun and non-stop heat. With the eye cream and SPF, you can prolong the youth of that sensitive skin under your eyes. Oversize sunglasses have also been a saviour during those sunny days. They cover at least 30 % of the face skin and you can be sure that you are not going to be cringing when looking against the sun. House of Harlow 1960 Sunglasses are my number one pick for what its worth, coming into the world with their reasonable price of $125.00. You can be sure that you will look stylish, chic and totally safe on the eye. They are round shape with gold plates on the sides which represent the Nicole Ritchie's House Of Harlow logo.

Cheap Thrill Bracelets by BCBG
BCBG came out with the leather bracelets which throw the "mildly embarrassing" words at you in gold metal. They wrap around your wrist at the price of only $18.00 and look like they are real handcuffs. Having them in gold, adds the coolness and shine to their already awkward design. I think you can never have too much color and too much gold so wearing them with colors, jeans, leather and even velvet is ok and even strongly encouraged. Bracelets are light in weight and will substitute any watch. Have fun wearing them!

Chanel Handbag’s Prices are on the Rise
I could not believe my eyes when I read the news about Chanel rising their prices on the handbags. This is in addition to the good news that they have added more of the new classic styles to their Fall Collection. As we all know, classic styles are usually flying out of the door even having their competitive prices in the designer handbag market. Nobody cares about paying a couple of thousands for a Chanel bag but now they probably will since the prices are rising by 20%.
This is the news that just came out at the end of July. Chanel does not like the fact that their bags are being resold on Ebay, back and forth from one set of hands to the other. Limiting the number of handbags sold per each style will eliminate the chance of letting the "bad people" to resell them second hand. Chanel wants to keep the image and reputation of having their handbag hard-to-find, one-of-its-kind (just like the KatyaUK Jewelry) item which is respectably distributed.
If you are thinking of buying a Chanel handbag, now is the time to rush into that boutique and spend your "put away" money since maybe in a couple of days you will no longer be able to afford it. In this collection, Karl Lagerfeld has incorporated lots of fur and snake skin in addition to clear beads and rhinestone jewels. Chanel New Collection of Handbags Fall/Winter 2010 is outstanding with its neutral colors, black, white, and even red. Excess of the sparkle and the different leather textures will appeal any eye since they will be easy to wear and will suit any outfit.
PS: If you are in the mood for shopping, try Chanel Handbags in Nieman Marcus Boston - 617-536-3660 ext 2126. The sales person is outstanding with great attitude and knowledge. Happy Shopping!
Rodarte For MAC – Magical and Inspirational!
I have been following Rodarte since its first fashion show and launch of its amazing collection. This time I am even more surprised and not only with their new make up line for MAC but with what has inspired it. It takes us to the border city called Juarez in Mexico. This city has been known as one of the "deadliest" cities in the continent. Many of the women who are traveling to their jobs at the nearby factories have been disappearing without a sign. Many of these crimes are left unsolved and lost. The families are struggling to survive by making little money while everything around is literally like a bloody warzone.
Rodarte sisters have been touched by the unfortunate life of the Juarez's people. They decided to create the inspired makeup line which will be as drastically magical and unique as their clothing line. "Their new cosmetics collection will feature blush, lip gloss, eyeshadows and nail polish in shades of "factory," "Juarez," "Ghost town," "del Norte," and "quinceanera." It will be available in September in US and will feature a lot of glitter and multi-colored ones. I like the pale pink blush and five colors lipgloss with the stair case like set up.
I thank the designers for being apologetic and so thoughtful by reminding people that there are others who need their help and do struggle to live a normal life. Possibly somebody will bring more control and ruling to the city and stop the crimes that are happening to and around those innocent people. On the other note - Rodarte make up is Magical and Inspirational!
Make your Own Set of Earrings
What can be more exciting than making your own jewelry? I have been personally addicted to this hobby. The way to start is collect the items that you no longer want, or do not wear often, also something that you can tear apart easily. Dont throw away or waste any of the products since every piece might be used and served its purpose towards your new creation. I have been collecting old jewelry and trying to put pieces together which saved me a lot of money.
refinery29.com has posted an article which provides you with an example of how different pieces can be used and inputted into one piece of jewelry. Many of the materials come from couture pieces of clothing and accessories. All of them are made with the bright colors and creative beaded pieces. The final result came out to be long multi-colored earrings which are adorable, look expensive, will work with any outfit and truly have a unique design. Try it out at home and send me any of your creations to katya@katyauk.com! I would love to see them!
ALEJANDRO, ALEJANDRO, Ale- Ale-JANDRO
Yes, this is what Lady Gaga is signing about lately. I am sure if she saw these ALEJANDRO boots, she would have fall in love with them right away. Even if it is so hot outside, we need to think of the upcoming Fall season and the new collection of boots. These furry creatures are on everybody’s list and they are hard to get even though they are priced at $1,720.30. You should get to know this designer's new collection.
His name is Alejandro Ingelmo. He is known as a new progressive man of the high-fashion footwear. His whole family has been in the same business for many generations in Cuba and they are definitely here to stay. He is a graduate of Parson School of Design in addition to his impeccable imagination and flamboyant taste.

Ripped Off By CHANEL
(Code: MY25%OFF)
Some of us have been paying big bucks for those amazing Chanel purses. We cannot resist their influence on the fashion world. They have been the MUST HAVE bag for many years now and I think if you do not own one, it is a shame since they truly bring out the style & uniqueness of the couture world. Some people think Chanel purses are a total rip off but I think it is an antique item which will last you years.
I guess this is where the name came from and "Rip Off by Chanel" bagles became so popular. Chickdowntown.com is now selling JESSICA KAGAN's plastic bangles online which I consider to be so anti-Chanel propaganda. Speaking about the rip off, they are also not cheap, they cost $143.00 for the pair of White Resin bracelet. I guess people do not care if it is real Chanel, just having the word printed on any of the accessories makes the difference.

Moises De La Renta for Mango
(Code: MY25%OFF)
Who could have thought that Moises will be taking his father's steps in quickly becoming famous in the fashion world. With the talent that he has and the passion for the fashion has brought him onto the pages of the magazines and blogs. The news rang that he will be designing a limited edition collection of T-shirts for Mango.
I think starting up at Mango and moving upto higher couture fame will be a perfect success ladder in the industry. It is certainly a bright path which will eventually earn him a spot in the Fashion Week.
The T-shirt collection was called MDLR which has integrated lots of jewels, chains, triple/double bows into the simple black, grey and white Tees. I am a bit late with the news since the London stores have been already selling the Mango T-shirts like crazy in 2009. With Moises's arrival in April 2010, the sales have only been going up and up. There are more surprises to come and designer’s couture influence. I cant wait for his full collection to come out, this is when he will be presented in his full light.
When You Want to Draw a Line
I think Jules Smith jewelry collection is interested in its own special way. It might seem too simple, too dull but I guess it still carries out a unique style. Almost like the metal knuckles which can be too "fashionable dangerous" to wear but can be fun to look at. Each one of the Five Points Knuckle Rings has five Swarovski crystals which planted in the line along 2" bar. I prefer yellow and rose gold colors which I think have more sophisticated elegant look than other metals.
KatyaUK Jewelry collection has earrings which would look perfect with either of the rings so it would be an amazing deal when you buy them as a set.
