Boys in the Spotlight

Hollywood Actor,JAMES DEAN

In every occasion,there is always the relation of fashion.Of course,it's very important because in social gatherings like the E-AWARDS NIGHT or THE SENIOR'S TRIBUTE for the information of the many,you must dress appropriately based on the said occasion.Whether you go for a high fashion or the cheaper ones,what's right for you can be acceptable for the night spectators but there are some who will give negative reviews with raising eyebrows.Though you can not impress your college professor or your college dean during your classes,you can impress them in other way.The most obvious is,make your sense and style visible in public.Dress to impress every civilian day.Fashion is respect.Your outfit is your response to the people you meet in the street,in the university corridor or in the hallway.If you have an awesome attire,therefore,it corresponds to a respectful greeting.If your attire is bad and disastrous,for sure rotten tomatoes will give a negative feedback.
The E-AWARDS NIGHT 2011 happened on March 18,2011 at Benjamin Hall,Lacson Street,Metro Bacolod.It was an evening gala of the Education students of the University of St. La Salle-Bacolod.Held annually,it was celebrated as an honor or tribute for the graduating senior students of the college of education-reminiscing their previous years during their stay in the college.The theme was black and white or minimalism for the knowledge of fashion enthusiasts.Minimalism was a period of art during the 1950s to 1970s.It was a vintage art with the intervention and influence of black and white television,vint periodicals and detective movies during the 1920s.Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel and James Dean is the perfect fashion inspiration in this black and white-themed soiree.

The Jonas Brothers

As a fashion writer,I am very skeptical in choosing my subjects for this article.It does not necessarily mean if you are beautiful and handsome,you are already confident that you look stunning and you look good in your outfit.No,it's not.If you want to look good in every clothes that you wear,make sure you are good in style mix and match.You must know your body shape and silhouette. Dude,always remember,not all clothes that are on-trend is always good for you.You must assure first that if the clothes loves you and so the people's eye will do,then go for it.

My Chemical Romance

Others think that black and white fashion is kinda boring and dull.In my opinion,yes it's true.Gone with those days during the 1940's-the WWII era when Chanel popularized the wearing of men's wear,which of course,black and white. Symbolizing how dark the era was.There is explosion here and there of the Axis and Allied powers,attacking military tanks and barracks,Parisian buildings collapsing due to missile attack and so on and so forth.
So,Coco Chanel,as a designer during that time,came to her thinking that,how will she come up with a whimsical design and play with colors and hues because of the tragic happenings.So,that's how black and white was noted by other fashion critics as boring.

Good Charlotte

During Hollywood's golden age in film industry,James Dean arose as a rebel image because of his portrayal in the 1950's Hollywood film,REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE.The actor was considered as a style icon for men who loves to wear black and white outfit.For the contemporary period,The Jonas Brothers,My Chemical Romance and Good Charlotte are the modern style icons for men channeling minimalism.
