featuring slim cuts, solid, bold washes and brightly colored washes, these Royal Society tees are the perfect marriage of casual and couture. check out the full collection here.

Laguna Beach is for winners!

2008-05-23T12:20:14Z

Recently, MTV aired "Rock the Cradle", a competition for the off spring of musical legends. MC Hammer's daughter, the son of Bobby Brown, the daughter of Olivia Newtown-John. The list continues. Of these rocker offspring, one candidate sure stood out among the crowd. He made an impression on all of the judges, even the voters, and ultimately won the competition.

And the winner is Crosby Loggins!

Crosby, the son of legendary and Grammy Award winning Kenny Loggins, survived the competition and came out on top! Not only did our main man know how to win over the hearts of judges, he also knew how to win over the fashion police, too! On the last episode, Crosby sported a chic yet casual look: a Pink Floyd shirt, a hoodie and blazer combo, and best of all, a smokin' hot pair of Laguna Beach Jeans! The white designs on the back pocket really made his outfit pop!

Sexy and sophisticated, we're glad to see Crosby Loggins come out on top. Congrats on your success and we look forward to your major debut!

Usher spotted in Retribution!

2008-05-16T15:13:20Z

Usher is my boy! When “You Make Me Wanna” came out in 1997 and skyrocketed to the top of the charts for 11 weeks, he has been one of my favorite artists. Not only can he actually sing, but he can dance like nobody’s business and he is smooth with the ladies. I can’t tell you how many times I have serenaded a lady with an Usher song. They eat that ish UP!

After a little hiatus, Usher is BACK! And he is tearing things up again with his hot new jam, “Love in This Club.” As I write this, he is number one on the Billboard charts for the hot videoclip tracks. Do it up!

If you can’t imagine, our main man Usher has been promo’ing like crazy to get the word out about his new single and his new album due out later this month. Recently, Usher was spotted at MTV studios rocking out the Retribution Gun Holster Tee in white, available right here on eModa.com!

Usher, stopping to take a quick pic with the ladies.

And here is Usher from the back, representin' Retribution!

Fellahs! How many times have you ordered a shirt online only to get it in the mail and realize it doesn't even fit? Not only are you disappointed because you spent all of this time waiting for the damn thing, but then you have to go through the process of returning it (if you even can), figuring out a way to make it work anyway (I usually put my blazer over it) or giving it to your greedy cousin Ray Ray because he's the only person you know short enough to fit that ish.

Birdman, Stunnin' in D. Reb!

2008-04-23T15:44:03Z

if you thought the vintage couture at eModa.com wasn't both high-fashion AND urban, think again! recently one of our best-selling brands, Dom Rebel, was seen gracing the frame of none other than Baby, a/k/a "Birdman" of Cash Money Millionaires fame. Birdman (née Bryan Williams) rose to fame in the mid-late nineties as a member of the Cash Money record label, a band of rappers that dominated the charts for a good minute. (fellow rapper B.G. is responsible for popularizing the phrase "bling-bling"; then up-and-coming rhymesmith Lil' Wayne started out as a tag-along on the label...he and Birdman now run the Cash Money empire and rule the rap charts.)

here, Birdman is wearing the Dom Rebel Skull Flowers Tee with Crystals, one of the latest gems from the canadian brand. while the crystallized version is not yet available at eModa.com, we do currently carry this tee without stones, in both white and black. you can also view exclusive pieces from the Dom Rebel collection at eModa.com.

Doing it up Giants style!

Hot for Spring 08!

2008-04-14T16:33:10Z

Spring brings rain showers, May flowers, and a ton of new looks and styles to add to your ever growing wardrobe. This year’s hottest spring style is wide-leg jeans. Unlike the baggy styles of yesteryear which made you look short, stocky, and unable to determine your size, the wide leg denim craze of this year is actually tailored and intentional. A higher waist is fitted throughout the hip and pairs up with wider legs that float away from the body. This a-line shape is going to contour your body to create the look of a smaller waist, an elongated leg line, and a more balanced appearance. Versatile and sophisticated, this is one look that is sure to stick around for seasons to come!

Here are some of our faves:

William Rast Savoy Wide-Leg Denim in Princess Blue
The dark wash is incredible!

DVB Wide-Leg Denim in Midnight Matte
This denim is so sophisticated, you could probably even wear them to work!

Frankie B Icon Wideleg Jean in Storm
The wash on these is just amazing!

So, there you have it dear readers. The look for this Spring is wide leg denim. Wear yours wide and proud!

Until next time,
Hot Mess Jess

jeans matter

2008-04-02T12:17:10Z

Recently, my friend Abby had a hot date. An old flame was coming from out of town to visit her, and she wanted to look her best. Just going for dinner and drinks, she struggled to find the perfect outfit. While she wanted to look pulled together, she didn't want to look too overdone.

Of course, because I work for a fashion company and am always up on the latest trends, my dear friend Abby consulted me for fashion help. How could she look alluring and sexy without trying too hard? How could she look super cute but still be comfortable?

Because Abby is mostly utilitarian in her wardrobe, I debated momentarily before I suggested something awesome: premium denim. "You could get a great pair of premium denim jeans," I said, developing a mental image, "with maybe a lower cut shirt and a fitted jacket. Ballet flats will look good and they'll keep you comfortable enough to survive whatever kind of date occurs."

It took some convincing. "Premium denim?" she asked. "I already have a ton of jeans. I'll just wear those."

"Not good enough," I insisted. I mean, while you can argue that jeans are just jeans, a great pair of designer jeans are going to do much more for you than those regular old "mart" type jeans you get from the same store that sells Ajax and boxed donuts. Ideally, jeans are going to help create a silhouette; they'll tuck you in, let you out, and ultimately create some kind of magic that generally only a gym can do. There are different cuts, washes, and types that are going to have different effects on the look of your body, so it's important to find out what works best for you.

Here are some simple rules that I gave to Abby and they turned out great!

Look for darker, consistent washes if you want to look long and lean. The solid wash works like a pair of black pants: the darker color will prevent highlighting any unwanted areas and make your lower body look lean and uniform.
Avoid heavy stressing or detailing around unwanted areas. Whiskering (the light claw-like marks you find around the crotch of jeans where your jeans would naturally wear out over years) is going to draw attention to your crotch and, in some instances, can make your hips and thighs look much wider than they actually are.
Find some stretch. The primary ingredient in your jeans should be cotton. A good pair of jeans will be 95-100% cotton, with the remaining being some kind of elastic or lycra. They'll give you stretch without sacraficing quality. Anything more than 5% is going to give your jeans a cheap look and they're not going to last as long.
Don't be afraid to tailor your jeans. Different designers tend to carry different inseams (the length of the jean from the crotch to the very bottom) and your inseam might not coordinate with your favorite designers' standard specs. Hemming jeans is relatively inexpensive, definitely worth the investment, and more recently, "original hems" have become so popular, you won't be sacraficing anything but excess fabric.
Find a fit that works for you. A slight flare or boot cut is going to balance out your lower body which is especially good for bottom heavy (or bootyliciious) girls. A skinny, straight leg jean is going to work well with skinny girls by giving the illusion of shapes. Wide, trouser leg jeans are surprisingly versatile and will hide any and all problem areas.

Abby, my nearest and dearest friend of ten years, is a little on the shorter side (she's 5'2") and very bootilicious. She's a little smaller on the top and was looking for a way to seem more balanced. I sorted through the inventory here at eModa.com and was able to comprise an outfit that was extremely flattering.

Here's what I recommended:

These Joes Jeans Naomi Honey Boot Fit jeans have a consistent, dark wash which detracted attention from Abby's derierre. The slight boot cut provided balance to her curvy hips and made her bottom half look uniform.

Next, I suggested this Miss Sixty Opal Singlet Tank in Black. The striped detail along the neckline and shoulders brings the attention up to her face while the rouching at the bust creates a hint of cleavage. Sexy, but not overdone.

Finally, to make the outfit sophisticated, I added this Glamour Campaign Jessica Flap Blazer. This is going to provide modesty and versatility. During dinner, she can wear this jacket to look modest. During drinks, however, she can take the jacket off to look more casual and inviting.

Abby had her date over this past weekend, and if you can't imagine, things went overwhelmingly well. Because she looked so good, she felt good, and this newfound sense of confidence was visible not just in her dress, but in her actions as well. Abby and this old flame of hers have already set up their second date. I, however, am on my way to the stock room to find something else for her to wear...

miss sixty: bringing sexy back!

2008-03-29T19:16:04Z

italian-designed brand Miss Sixty has been around for nearly two decades and is only growing stronger, developing amazing women's clothing, accessories, fragrances and more. appealing to fashion-forward fashionistas, this label brings a cosmopolitan flair to the table...a breath of fresh air to those tired of the bookish, boxy clothing styles of late.

the undeniable appeal of Miss Sixty clothing lies mainly in the brand's versatility. unafraid to flirt with unusual colors, patterns and fabric blends, founders wichy hassan and renato rossi have taken the brand to new heights, premiering au courant collections at the famed guggenheim museum in nyc during a past fashion week event.
