Fashion advice from Marlene Dietrich herself.

                                                                               


                                                   How to Dress (On a budget)
"Here are some basic rules:
Don't ever follow the latest trend, because in a short time you will look ridiculous.
 Don't buy green, red or any other flamboyant-colour dress. A small wardrobe must consist of outfits that you can wear again and again.
Therefore, black, navy blue and grey are your favorite colours. Don't buy separates.
Don't believe the sales talk that you can have five dresses for the price of one.
And don't buy cheap materials, no matter how attractive the dress looks to you.
Don't say you can't afford a dress made of expensive materials. Save up for it.
If you have one good suit, preferably grey (navy gets shiny), two black dresses, a black wool skirt, a couple of black and grey sweaters, you'll be well dressed most of the year until summer, when you'll wear simple cotton dresses.
 Another suggestion, don't send your clothes to the cleaner's all the time. Spot-clean and press them yourself. It's worth it because they last longer.
And while you're saving up for that good black dress, on your next date wear a black sweater and skirt. Nothing wrong with that as long as you don't ruin the elegance of the outfit by overemphasis of the bosom."

Fashion designer makes light of events in Egypt

Egypt and Cairo is a hot topic for so many right now both liberal and conservative. However, should celebrities and fashion designers use this current crisis as a platform?

This week designer Kenneth Cole sent out the following Tweet. 

"Millions are in an uproar in#Cairo. Rumor is they heard our new Spring collection is now available online at http://bit.ly/KCairo"

It was signed KC which implies that it had the go ahead from the designer Kenneth Cole himself. If such a Tweet was found all for fun and meant to be lighthearted why issue an apology? Apparently one was needed because soon after this was sent out via the same account:

"RE Egypt Tweet: We weren't intending to make light of a serious situation.We understand the sensitivity to of this historic moment."

Despite their best efforts what was said or Tweeted was sent out there and can not easily be taken back. With Twitter there is only delete there is no "Undo".
