Reblog: Femme Fashionista Must Have: BCBG Max Azria Dresses

Our femme fashionista must have pick this month is BCBG Max Azria dresses. The famous bandage dress has been the “It” dress for the past few years. Everyone from Victoria Beckham to Ashley Simpson has been pictured wearing dresses from Max Azria. These dresses are for the fit and fabulous for sure and are better known as Hervé Léger by Max Azria. Make no mistake this super sexy dress will show off all of your curves. Below are some celebrities that wore the dress best.


Wearing her Hervé Léger by Max Azria dress to the launch of her perfume in Germany, Katy Perry wore one of the more classic designs. The warp dress crossed the singers’ famous bust elegantly and cinched her figure down to her knees. Perry is known for choosing outrageous outfits, but this look was toned down and perfect. We love the lavender.


Jessica Szohr wore her BCBG to a Hervé Léger by Max Azria Spring 2011 fashion show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week last year. The former gossip girl looked stunningly fit in the black cut out and mesh form fitting dress. The daring sheer fabric on the mid section add another level of sex appeal to this otherwise simple dress.


Kim Kardashian wore this form fitting Hervé Léger by Max Azria to a Las Vegas opening. The super sexy dress is quite intricate with a nude underlay with black detailing on top. The knee length dress hugs her figure straight down to the knees. This dress from the spring 2011 collection was definitely made for Kim.


Katherine McPhee turned heads in her Hervé Léger by Max Azria nude bandage dress in New York. McPhee’s slender body looked great in the barely there dress. A+ for Katherine for looking super sexy post her American Idol days.


Britney Spears wore a Hervé Léger by Max Azria design to Wango Tango music concert last year. The super fit celebrity looked super sexy in the hot pink maze print strapless wrap dress. We really love how Britney has cleaned up in the past year and a half. We’re so team Britney.



We’re a fan of Brooklyn Decker in her pink Hervé Léger by Max Azria worn at the ESPY awards. The dress doesn’t fit the thin supermodel as tight as it does some of the other celebrities we’ve seen, but she is really filling out the top of the dress well. The tank dress look works for the beautiful blonde.

Reblog - Exclusive Look: WikiFashionista.com Street Style Video Contest Winner Zoe B. Shows Us Her Swag

Look whose winning fashionistas! Zoe B. is coming to you from Century City, CA where she’s giving you an inside exclusive look at the newest fashion goodies she’s added to her wardrobe. Zoe selected some stylish fashion accessories from, Handbag Heaven, Affordable Scarves, Sunglass Warehouse and Shiekh Shoes. Check out the video of Zoe rocking her grand prize winnings in the video. And, below is a review on the items Zoe B. chose from the sponsors of the WikiFashionista.com street style video contest as well. Don’t forget to keep checking back for new street style videos at wikifashionista.com, where we speak to real girls, wearing real fashion, in real-time.

Retro Style Black Sunglasses

Starting from head to toe, Zoe selected the SW Retro Style Black Sunglasses with smoked lenses from Sunglass Warehouse. This ultra cool website is where the smart fashionistas go to get the hottest luxury inspired sunglasses for less. Nothing burns more than to scratch, break or lose and expensive pair of shades. And let’s face it, we all have done it at one time or another, which is why owning luxury accessories, can leave you feeling more grief than chic. Zoe’s Ray-ban inspired sunglasses would cost her a lot more than the similar Retro shades she’s wearing in the video.

Amanda Circle Scarf

Zoe selected the Amanda Circle Scarf in Red, because that’s her favorite color. As seen in the video, the infinity scarf double loops casually around the neck creating a layered look. The thing that is so attractive about infinity scarves is its versatility. You can also wear it as a shrug, through the arms and around the neck. You can also wear it more Beverly Hills chic by lacing one end through the other around the neck. There’s really an infinite amount of possible ways to wear this piece.

Jamie Buckle Satchel

Next, Zoe scored the Jamie Buckle Satchel from our friends at Handbag Heaven. Zoe is currently a working college student, so naturally she selected a handbag for a fashionista on the go that will accommodate her school necessities and transition nicely to a work setting. The Jamie Buckle Satchel has two front strap closures and turn lock claps to keep the contents of the bag secure. The two toned color block Tan/Olive handbag also has handy long shoulder strap, which gives a chic messenger bag look to it.

Fantasik Wedges

Last but certainly not least, Zoe went with the Fantasik High Heel Wedges in black courtesy of Shiekh Shoes. Judging by her video response, Zoe absolutely loves these ultra high platform wedges with color block heel. We love the edgy thick straps and sexy peep toe front. The Fantasik Wedges will add 5 ½ inches to your current height, so if you’re the kind of fashionista that loves to be super high like Zoe then Shiekh Shoes has what you’re looking for.

Unique Styles for Urban Dresses

Urban wear is much more than merely considered as street fashion, and this goes the same with dresses. Urban dresses have been evolving as time passes, and it has now become a personal style statement. Women who are strutting their stuff in these urban dresses clearly state their own style and personality. Before, urban clothing was just connected to hip hop musicians. Nowadays, not only hip hop musicians are dressed in urban dresses. With their vibrant designs, it has become a universal design wave.

As stated, urban wear can symbolize the style identity of the people wearing them, given that they might customize their whole ensemble to be noticed. Together the continuous evolution of urban clothing styles, it has become a winner not just to teens, but also to the more mature age bracket. It has even gone to touch on socio-economic lessons. Hip hop music artists, celebrities, and public personalities can be seen dressed in this particular style every once in awhile.

However, the biggest concern regarding urban dresses is how costly it can be. Right now, there are several hip hop musicians who are insistent on trending economical urban fashion clothes as well as accessories because of their own declaration against materialism. Urban clothing and hip hop music are not just about the dresses and jewelries you put on, whatever perspective you view it from.

There are a few urban fashionistas who might not be into shiny colorings, baggy pants and noisy components, but these individuals are in a position to merge urban style clothing with their own personal taste, making another kind of fashion trend.

Urban clothing lovers have a tremendous sense of style since they are able to blend their personal brand of fashion as well as street style wear together to make gorgeous urban dresses. Their designs are becoming exciting and fashionable, as they try to break the rules to make a statement for themselves. It is generally hit or miss for other people. However, the declaration of their personal style is really bold.

Urban street fashion brands seem to be paying attention to this kind of sub-culture and are beginning to capitalize on it. Urban clothing designers would certainly build a special connection to street awareness, identifying exactly what the urban consumers desire. After all, clothing fashion trends would likely know exactly what is trendy by what is seen on the streets.
