On his 90th birthday, Nelson Mandela was gifted with a stylish bangle by Montblanc. Interestingly, the bangle has a gap in between and that in itself is a representation of freedom and power; the terms that stand for Nelson Mandela. The bangle has an engraved number on it. It is 46664. The relevance is regarding the revolutionary days of Mandela, who spent years as prisoner 46664.

With this reference Montblanc has come up with this wonderful piece of sparkling jewelry. It is made out of South African metals. The bangle is made by people who are in some way or the other affected from HIV/Aids epidemic. This effort makes it more special and a worth gifting such a great man. This particular model of jewelry that costs £112. Sixty percent of the sales will go to Mandela’s 46664 HIV/Aids prevention programme.

Hideous Super 24K Gold Lens Sunglasses http://www.styleguru.org/entry/hideous-super-24k-gold-lens-sunglasses/ http://www.styleguru.org/entry/hideous-super-24k-gold-lens-sunglasses/#comments Asmita 151412008632317543379628_l_gW9Vh_1333
You know how back in the early 80s the phrase “you can never go wrong with gold” was thrown around a lot when it came to accessories? Well, it turns out you kinda can and when you decide to don on a pair of shades with gold lenses, it really doesn’t up your bling value at all. Created by Italian sunglasses powerhouse Super, the “24K Gold Lenses” make even the plainest of people look like hostile alien intelligence agents and the black/ white frame options don’t really help either.

The Zeiss lenses sure do offer quality but when it comes to style, these ugly gold shades are really not worth 117€ at all!

SKINEEZâ„¢ Skincarewearâ„¢ Anti-Cellulite Thigh Slimmer http://www.styleguru.org/entry/skineez%e2%84%a2-skincarewear%e2%84%a2-anti-cellulite-thigh-slimmer/ http://www.styleguru.org/entry/skineez%e2%84%a2-skincarewear%e2%84%a2-anti-cellulite-thigh-slimmer/#comments Asmita clipboard_nUc3G_1333
Having struggled with weight literally all my adult life, I’ve had my fair share of encounters with body contouring and tummy control under garments. But the revolutionary new SKINEEZ™ Skincarewear™ Anti-Cellulite Thigh Slimmer promises something new. Providing contouring where you want it, the slimmer delivers softer, smoother skin and helps reduce the appearance of cellulite while you wear it!

Featuring Skintex® technology that creates firmer and softer skin to help to reduce the appearance of cellulite, the patented garment comes pre-treated with Skintex® skincare microcapsules and a “starter kit” of Skintex® helps you refresh the garment with the skincare spray after 8-10 washes.

Completely seamless, the nylon/spandex wonder claims that just wearing it just eight hours a day and 6 days a week will result in waist measurements shrinking an average of one inch and thigh measurements going down by an average of 0.4 inches. For $68, it might just be worth it you know!

Chanel J12 gets a pink gold watch http://www.styleguru.org/entry/chanel-j12-gets-a-pink-gold-watch/ http://www.styleguru.org/entry/chanel-j12-gets-a-pink-gold-watch/#comments arpita watch-canel_JWxwO_7548

Despite of their high price tag, Chanel watches inspired by the ideas of the legendary woman designer Coco Chanel are jewelries that every woman would love to adorn on the wrist. In 2000, when the Parisian fashion house launched its J12 collection, everybody was stunned by the combination of haute couture with the sporty style in women’s watches. After the white ceramic diamond, black ceramic and the pink sapphire watches, Chanel has added the pink gold and white ceramic watch to its J12 collection studded with diamond indicators. The dazzling look of the pink gold J12 makes it difficult to resist the temptation to flaunt one on your wrist.

Putting Scissors to male shorts - Trend spotted! http://www.styleguru.org/entry/putting-scissors-to-male-shorts-trend-spotted/ http://www.styleguru.org/entry/putting-scissors-to-male-shorts-trend-spotted/#comments somyamathur miami-swim-08_men-trend-09_short-shorts_xvUHD_7881

I’m telling ya ladies, the evening trip to the pool is going to have more incentives than one! Not only will working out in the pool make you get a hot bod but while you are in the process you might get to see a lot of them as well. I ain’t no tarot card reader, this one comes from this very hot fashion trend for men that demands for them to crop their shorts and show off what they got! Miami Swim has launched male swimwear that has considerably shortened the length of their trunks and given the leggy beaus some rare-real opportunity to flaunt! The fashion critics have pointed out that this trend will largely be a hit among gay men for the straight variety would neither splurge nor show! In any case, I just thought you should know that someone had the guts to put scissors on a pair of men’s shorts and it doesn’t look half bad as it sounds!

How often have you wondered what to do with your purse while walking into an eatery? The common conclusion would be dumping the lump on the lap or keeping it beside the chair, always worrying whether anybody is eyeing it to walk away with my possessions. However, things are going to change from now since I have come across the new Luxe Link Purse Holders designed especially for people like me who have problems handling their purse. This exquisitely designed shiny metal purse hook has a chrome chain that could be easily wrapped round the edge of any table keeping the bag off the ground hanging on the hook underneath the table. At $35, it is quite a beauty to possess.

Generally I truly detest those t-shirts with slogans or ugly patterns simply for the reason that I have had to bear looking at them day in and day out literally all my life. But in a clever and pleasant break from the monstrosity that is a t-shirt with a print, the Papamamason Panda charity t-shirt from ACU and CLOT actually tugs at the heart and makes one think.

Featuring a design that has been specially created by Hong Kong based artist Eric So, all profits from the sale of t-shirt are to be donated to the Chinese Red Cross in aid of the victims of the earthquake that hit china earlier this year. Available at ACU in Shanghai, the t-shirt not only helps you support people in need, it actually looks good too!

LiLo’s got a mean new trend up her ankles! http://www.styleguru.org/entry/lilo-s-got-a-mean-new-trend-up-her-ankles-gloves/ http://www.styleguru.org/entry/lilo-s-got-a-mean-new-trend-up-her-ankles-gloves/#comments Asmita clipboard_iJ9mn_1333
Ok so LiLo may not be winning the Miss Congeniality award anywhere in the world anytime soon, but you know what, the babe knows her fashion. Even when she’s flashing her assets she looks good! And even though I’m so damn sure everyone and their prudish mother will be out in drones dissuading and dissing her new legging line, but to be extremely honest, I’m really loving the concept.

Inspired by Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe, LiLo’s 6126 collection, which BTW also happens to be the birth date of her inspiration, the totally irreverent Ankle Gloves are crafted in a modal/lycra blend and let you show off your perfect ankles in some style. At $42 a pair, they might not exactly be as cheap as snipping the toes off of your regular socks but hey, they look much better than those whorish Britney socks any given day!

You know how there are some “fashion” accessories that simply make your blood curdle? Well, following in the same league as shoulder-padded baggy tops of the 80s and the 90s and the super ugly eye makeup that made even the prettiest babes look like gothic cult followers, is this incredibly ungodly baseball shoe high hell sandal combo by, of all the people in the world, Jean Paul Gaultier!

clipboard_1A7vM_1333
The totally senseless match almost wants you feel like tearing the thing apart and rescuing the baseball boots (the sandals they come wrapped under is just too hideous to live anyway). We have no idea what or who prompted the fab couturiers to allow this little devil to be produced under his name but since it retails at $829, we have a sneaky feeling a fellow name Lucifer might have something to do with it!

Kanye West finally gets his Louis Vuitton Backpack http://www.styleguru.org/entry/kanye-west-finally-gets-his-louis-vuitton-backpack/ http://www.styleguru.org/entry/kanye-west-finally-gets-his-louis-vuitton-backpack/#comments Asmita kanye-west-louis-vuitton-backpack_e4tDd_1333
You know a brand is super exclusive when a major music star admits that he’s had to wait a while to get one of their items. Apparently Louis Vuitton had Kanye West wait a whole year and a half to get his hands on one of their super-exclusive backpacks. Of course Kanye has been spotted all over the nation flaunting his fab find, though we certainly are not sure if it’s really becoming on him. After all, hip-hop and couture aren’t exactly a traditional match and considering how Kanye pairs the fly bag with his ultra casual, almost bordering on things the guys on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy would throw out of a layman’s closet, we’re not even sure if it was worth the wait for him!
