Unique fashion is something individual and unusual, and many people are realising just how stunning it can be.
With up and coming designers comes unique fashion that is only available at select stores, often small boutiques. Check out their hottest styles by hunting down the small unique stores in the big cities.
Unique fashion can look great on anyone with a sense of style. All you need is the confidence. Uniqiue fashion is not intended for those that want to blend into the backgroud. Have a voice and be heard - by wearing the latest unique fashion.
Check out one of my favourite unique fashion boutiques at www.blondeandwise.co.uk

Ladies Fashion Skirts - Show Some Leg!
These days it is more important than ever to dress to impress and having a knock-out skirt can achieve this effortlessly. First, however, you have to make sure you dress appropriately for your age.
Ladies in their early 20s can easily get away with short skirts, but when you get to 30, i think it is important that you increase the length a little bit. I have heard a few times that you should increase the length on your skirt by each year you get older, but i dont think this would be entirely fair to those ladies that still have great figures in their 40s! It is just about knowing the boundaries and dressing to suit your style and age.
Ladies fashion skirts can come in all different sizes and styles, but here's a good tip for those ladies of a slightly fuller figure: Opt for an A-line skirt to minimise attention on the waistline. The A-line skirt will draw the eye to the curves of your body around the hip and leg area, rather than focusing on the actual stomach, which most of us want to cover up. This type of skirt will flatter the figure much better.

Bargain Hunters...
If you love shopping for female fashion then there is no better place to find a bargain than on eBay. With an endless supply of fashion listings, it's no wonder that eBay is so successful. Statbrain.com has estimated that there are 12,021,367 visits per day to eBay.co.uk, which i am sure you will agree is a staggering amount of traffic. With that in mind, there is sure to be something you see on there that you feel compelled to purchase (as I do; on frequent occasions).
If the thought of buying female fashion on eBay fills you with horror, it's probably because you associate eBay with buying used clothes. But this is definitely not the case, as there are many sellers out there who are parting with genuine items still with their store tags on the garments! Even a brand new item such as this can be saving for you, since you will generally find clothing sells for less than it would in store. Unless, of course, you are looking for that inimitable designer runway piece that was a limited edition of about 10. Then you're probably going to have to splurge some serious cash to get what you want.
I have been ranting about eBay for ages. trying to get my friends to sign up and share the love, but unfortunately i have had a losing battle with them, since they say they do not want to get 'hooked' and it is quite obvious that by that comment, they know they will!
I'm addicted; i can't help it. You go on there with the intention of searching for one thing and then find yourself searching for the most random items you could imagine. Things that you could quite easily go the shop 5 minutes away and buy, but for some reason it just seems so much more 'exciting' searching for it on eBay, as though saving yourself 55p is the best bargain in the world.
I remember hearing Weird Al Yankovich's parody of eBay and thinking how spot on he was with his lyrics, and if you're an eBay addict you will know exactly what he is on about!
A couple of years ago i also saw a program on BBC3 called Spendaholics, where there was one girl addicted to buying on eBay and was consequently in serious debt. It's not worth ending up like this, but if you like female fashion then it can't harm you having a little browse can it? Be sensible and set a budget, but have fun!

Female Fashion
Female Fashion - TV Heaven
Channel 4's TV delights are continuing to entertain us; not least with all the female fashion programmes filling our screens.
One of my favourites is 10 Years Younger, an opportunity for rather drab looking women 40 years+ to undergo a complete transformation. Nicky Hambleton-Jones takes us on a journey from cosmetic surgery to revamping the wardrobe, and the outcome is always pretty remarkable. One episode from Series 5 featured Marilyn Cooke, a lady who had spent far too many years on the sunbeds and even backcombed her hair. One can only assume she was preparing herself for an 80s revival.
Luckily, the team on 10 Years Younger managed to transform Marilyn, and the clothing that Nicky chose for her looked stunning. Female fashion for a mature lady can be a bit of a grey area, so i think it is great that programmes such as this are helping women find their inner youthfulness.
Then there is the assured presence of Mr Gok Wan, a TV ratings hit. He burst back onto our screens earlier this year with his new series "Gox's Fashion Fix" and this is a great show for fashion loving females everywhere. Gok tells us how to create show-stopping outfits for high street prices. He then puts his creations to the test by pitting them against couture designs that easily exceed the £1000 price tag. Invariably, Gok wins the audience over and leaves the expensive designs looking a little more than worthless.
In the eyes of the consumer, this is even more evidence that branded clothing could be overrated.
So, when you're next stuck for what to watch on a night, make sure you "channel-hop" to a female fashion programme; guaranteed to quench your fashion thirst!
