New Way - Elektro?

How about that, the Scene has evolved and now expands to Elektro Trend - think Sam Sparro and alike. There's something about it, maybe we just need some shocking dose of colour, he?

Take some wild retro design with electro-shocking mixture of colours, all in one pill, ohyeah! Our personal favourite has to be Rock Rehab T-shirt - the Elektro Scene twist with Skulls, Stars and bright Retro Casette Print.

We love it! This Tee looks perfect with bright yellow or green skinnies, scarf, some funky sneakers and a Hoody!

How to create a classic School Outfit?

School is back, yes we know, it's killer time for fashion imagination. Goodbye wild hair and make-up, it's time to face reality :) Does the School Fashion Rules really has to strangle you all the way? We dare to think not! We thought this classic number should do the trick and work as a perfect School Outfit - still holding Scene Emo attitude, mind you :)

Ok, that's really nice and eye-catching combination of Black and White Stripe Ladies Tee, Black Skinnies and Accessories. You can change this outfit by adding belt / scarf / jewellery. It's quite flattering combination and you can also replace Kelly Green Chess Hoodie by pure Scene Queen Indulgence - Pink Leopard Print Hoodie!

This look is hottt...

How To Make Outfit Look More Scene?

We love Scene Queen look, who can be surprised, with their wild coloured hair, loads of make-up and even more jewellery, Scene look is hottt! But c'mon, who can afford to look like Audrey Kitching, when one's gotta work or put School Uniform on? That's a tricky bit, we're trying to decide how to make everyday outfit look more Scene?
Help us on this one, and take part in our poll: 'How To Make Everyday Outfit more Scene?'

How To Make Shool Outfit more Emo?

We love all the Emo Scene, with the Hair, Skinny Jeans, Hoodies, T-shirts and belts. But everyone has their own preferences to what they like to wear. Whether it's a band tee, studded belts, or all over print Hoodies. So what is it that makes the look truly Emo? What in your private opinion is the main thing that could make a simple outfit more Emo? Specially now, when the School time is near, how will you make your school outfit more Emo?

Help us decide on this one, and take part in our poll: 'How To Make School Outfit more Emo?'

Slogan T-shirt makes people actually see you?

I love Slogans and quotes on T-shirts, they say something about you, if you decided to put it on your chest, it's more of a Message to the World. It makes people actually notice you, and keep an eye a second longer, just to read what's there. I'm not too sure of massive belt buckles on guys, do they want to bring the attention to the lower parts?
I heard lately, that there are Hoodies and T-shirts with the Comic Story printed on them, with an action plan you can follow, but will you need to stop the guy who wears it to read it through? 'Sorry, I haven't finished yet...'

How To Dress to a Theme Party?

You’ve just been invited to a Theme Party? Ok, that’s not the end of the world, believe us, you will look fantastic and all you need is a bit of research.

If, for example you’re going to 70s Theme Party, you need to Google ‘70s Fashion’ to find out, how they dressed. 70s is easy to achieve, you pretend you’re colour blind and don’t accept black. But seriously? We’ve just had a task to dress one of our clients to 70s party, and we all had a good laugh!

We decided to go for Comic all Over Print T-shirt, as it’s a classic Old School number, on that we’ve put golden waistcoat, and green flare trousers on the bottom. That looked really great, and with 70s fashion, you can’t go wrong with too much jewellery, wild hair or big platform boots! Think ABBA and Bee Gees, didn’t they look fantastic? All these tight jeans, big teeth and full make-up? Tell us 70s and we’re on board!

TOP 10 FILMS TO WATCH THIS WEEK

1. Today ITV1 4.50pm The Mummy
This period horror adventure that stars Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, Arnold Vosloo and John Hannah is a mixture of archaeological action with a mixture of comedy and curses thrown in. If you like all things Egyptian as I do you will love this. A very entertaining movie rated 12.

2. Today BBC3 8.50pm Chicken Run
A fabulous family film with the voices of Mel Gibson as Rocky the Rooster, Julie Sawalha as Ginger and also Jane Horrocks as Babs. From the makers of Wallace & Gromit this movie is very funny that has many POW undertones including The Great Escape rate U.

3. Today E4 9.00pm I,Robot
A futuristic sci-fi move with Will Smith at the helm set in 2035 when robots are part of everyday family life. He plays a detective who has had a bad experience of the robots which seems substantiated when a friend appears to have been killed by one. A very thrilling action movie that is worth watching rated12.

4. Sunday ITV2 9.00pm The Sixth Sense
A supernatural drama starring Bruce Willis and a young Haley Joel Osment which is an intelligent ghost story that you to need to watch from start to finish. With its knockout twist ending this film is rated 15.

5. Monday ITV1 10.40pm Unleashed
A fantastic martial arts action thriller starring Jet Li, Bob Hoskins and Morgan Freeman. This movie set in Glasgow has some great Jet Li action parts but a great film for non martial arts fans. It is rate 18 as does contain violence.

6. Monday TCM 9.00pm The Dirty Dozen
If you are able to get this channel via satellite it is a fantastic classic movie to watch and stars a host of old Hollywood greats including Lee Marvin, Charles Bronson, Clint Walker, Ernest Borgnine. Rated 15 however the violence is very mild compared to today’s movies.

7. Monday Ch 5 11.05pm An Innocent Man
A brilliant crime thriller in my opinion although not a massive hit for Tom Selleck when released in which a ordinary chap gets set up by two dirty cops and goes to prison. It changes the character for the worst. Well worth watching rated 18.

8. Tuesday BBC3 8.00pm Armageddon
A big epic all action sci-fi movie starring Bruce Willis, Liv Tyler, Ben Affleck and Owen Wilson. If you are able to put up with the ra ra America overtones it is a great movie to watch with humour, tears and great performances, rated 15.

How To Survive a Gig?

If you’ve been to a gig before, you know it can be wild place and quite impossible to control. So how to prepare for a concert, what to wear to survive? Keyword is: ‘comfortable’. Put comfortable shoes, not your best pair, but one that could be trodden by the crowd, you’ll be surprised by the state of your shoes after the concert! Well you’ll still need them for your way back, so leave your pumps at home and put some old sneakers instead. Fashion can wait one more day :)
Now, the jeans, ideally black or grey, as you might sit on the ground, be spilled with a beer and other disasters, and you don’t want to show the world story of the night, do ya? Ok, so that’s sorted, but what about the top? Well, that’s a tricky number. Have at least two tops with you, one underneath, sleeveless for dancing when it’s really hot and crowdie, and a Hoodie to wear on your way back. But don’t take your favourite Hoodie with you, you’ll need some old number, one which can be left on the ground, or under the bench, ideally dark coloured, or with some strong pattern.
Ok, so the wardrobe’s sorted. What about other things to have? You might need some secure place to put money in, so ideally in your pockets, have some room for tissues, bus pass, mobile, lipstick or eye-liner, you never know if you’ll need some make-up corrections! And there’s no point of taking backpack with you, it can be easily robbed in these kind of places, even if you leave it in cloakroom.
After all, you go there to have fun with your mates, and not to worry about the state of your clothes, or your bag!
