Fashion ties in 2012

Parisian

It is important to not "what" important "how" - keep repeating the stylists. Especially when it comes to fashionable neckties 2012. Silk tie the two competing shades, tied as a scarf, talk about your sense of humor and style. At Alexander McQueen tie pattern repeats print on the shirt. The condition is optional, but very effective. For the Parisian way of desirable sleeve shirts were democratically wrapped and under the shirt could guess the right color shirt.

Intellectual

Fashion ties in 2012 full of compound patterns. Geometric shapes, checkered, irregular patterns give a tendency to unconventional thinking, and this, as shown by Dr. House, I like everything. Psevdoskuchny black and white print of the "office" turns into an interesting and trendy. The fashion house Versace , known for his unbridled shocking, showed how to wear tie-zebra: a gray jacket, white shirt and dignity. In addition, the chief designer brand, Donatella Versace , has created a tie for lazy people. Contrast collar buttoned in the form of elegant forms tie-blende. The original idea and a luxury - in the style of the house.

Celebrity

His creative style bowtie acquired after the opera J. Puccini's "Madame Butterfly" . All musicians of the orchestra put on a butterfly - it was an elegant reference to the title and plot of the opera. Most of today's butterflies are not tied around the neck, as required by good manners, and fastened. But designers are encouraged not to save time, when it comes to "creative tie". Another important recommendation: do not wear a bow tie every day (why do you need reputation dude?). Tie "creative tie" in special cases - if each of your output will be in light fashion event. A few words about colors: classic black and white butterflies leave the opera stars and suitors (except the dress code is white tie). Colors fashionable tie-butterfly 2012: perky green, romantic violet, blue road.

Superhero on vacation

Unleashed silk tie - this is a new symbol of masculine luxury. This image came up joker Jean-Paul Gaultier . His characters - all your favorite characters are the big boys: James Bond and Alain Delon , a rest from the heavy, but a successful day. Prerequisites for entry into the image: a black tie, and his humble satin shine against the backdrop of snow-white shirts, just as the show Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2012. Leggy beauty in a dress with a neckline crazy hand in hand with our hero - is welcome.


Elegant

Tie-cord often buy their companions ladies. Men consider themselves hipsters accessory shoe laces and ignored. Undeserved Boycott! With the right approach Sweaters are working as regular exercise: tighten shape, improve posture and make the image more vibrant. The classic version: black lace with a white shirt - the most successful, as demonstrated by a series of experiments. Another interesting tie color - brownish-gray with a purple shimmer, like Dolce & Gabbana . And the designers of Dsquared have shown how to wear a tie with a shirt or vest with print. Like everything that goes under the name of this house - naturally!

Nike Air Max 1 'Cannon'

Man the cannons! Nike is brining us yet another cannon colored kick and it just goes to show that you can't keep a good color down. The last significant use of the color was the Nike Lebron 9 'Cannon' and this time the color has landed atop a Nike Air Max 1 silhouette.

The sneaker features a cannon colored suede upper with white canvas paneling for a pretty strong two toned color blocking. This one is devoid of any other complimenting color and that gives it an even stronger statement as it really stands out among the batch of other Nike Air Max 1′s we've seen.

Are those for Ronaldo?

Are those for Ronaldo? A PVC-clad Irina Shayk and Jessica White take sexy snaps at basketball match

It must be hard with her boyfriend in Spain half the time as she fulfills her modelling duties in New York.

So perhaps Irina Shayk had her footballer lover Cristiano Ronaldo in mind when she took a series of sexy snaps with fellow model Jessica White.

The girls decided to neglect the New York Knicks game last night for a spot of pouting and posing courtside.

They diverted a lot of eyes away from the sport as Jessica, 27, held up her camera phone and snapped the pair in the front row at Madison Square Garden.

In one shot, Irina can be seen pursing her lips in the direction of Jessica's cheek as the latter clicks away.

In another, the 26-year-old pokes her tongue out as Jessica feigns shock.

Jessica obviously couldn't wait to share one of the photos, posting it on her Twitter accound moments after the game.

She wrote: 'Me and my bff the beautiful irina.'

Russian Irina had wiggled and wriggled her way into a pair of spray-on PVC trousers and black Christian Louboutins to watch the Knicks beat the Orlando Magic team.

She teamed the outfit, more suited to a night out, with a faux fur sleeveless jacket and a nude silk top that appeared to have bondage-inspired straps.

She completed the look with gold drop earrings and lashings of red lipstick.

Her brunette locks were pulled back into a tight ponytail.

Jessica opted for a long white cardigan over blue skinny jeans with a fur wrap and towering orange knee-high boots with gold studs at the top.

her black hair was loose, with her heavy fringe almost covering her eyes.

Singer Ciara was also at the game, wearing similar PVC trousers and a fur gilet.

It's clear Irina was only too eager to slip back into her eye-catching clothes, after covering up in full winter attire yesterday

She abandoned her revealing wardrobe as she braved the cold New York weather to run her Sunday errands.

As most celebrities were donning skimpy dresses at the Golden Globes on the other side of the country, the model donned a thick white fur coat.

She paired the warm hooded jacket with leather gloves and black leggings with leather panels.

Hiding further beneath large celebrity shades, it was her bee-stung lips peeking out from beneath that gave her disguise away.

She added a pair of flat black boots to complete the look.

Irina visited the D`AGOSTINO grocery store in the West Village, stocking up on some healthy supplies.

Disaster on Lake Erie: The 1841 Wreck of the Steamship Erie by Alvin Oickle

Disaster on Lake Erie is a recent addition to the local history collections of the Buffalo and Erie County Public Library.  Oickle tells the story of the steamship Erie, one of the fastest and most elegant ships sailing between Buffalo and Chicago.  It was a large ship - over 176 ft. long and about 27 ft. wide.

On August 9, 1841, the Erie departed Buffalo carrying 343 passengers.  Many of these passengers were recent immigrants who were looking forward to starting new lives in the Midwest.  It was a windy day and many of the passengers were in their berths with seasickness.  In the early evening, there was "a slight explosion, a hissing sound and a cry of 'Fire!'"  Within minutes 254 lives were lost.

Alvin Oickle offers a minute-by-minute account of the disaster.  His use of first person accounts gives the reader insight as to what it was like to be part of this disaster.  Anyone interested in the history of Lake Erie will be fascinated by this book.

As more voters tune in, Romney tries to take control of his brand

Once Mitt Romney took the stage in New Hampshire last week to declare victory before hundreds of supporters chanting his name, he chastised President Obama. But he did not demonize him. Romney tried to identify with anxious Americans and said he could both fix the economy and unite the country. And he adapted Obama's 2008 hope as his own: “We still believe,” Romney said. “We still believe.”

Just as his opponents were trying to cast him as a “vulture capitalist,” Romney projected steadiness and warmth in a loving, handsome tableau with his high school sweetheart-turned-wife, Ann, their five sons, daughters in law and well-mannered grandchildren. The aspirational American family.

The next day, Romney aired his first Spanish-language television advertisement in South Florida. It's an uplifting, even gauzy spot narrated by his Spanish-speaking son, Craig. The title: “Nosotros,” or “Us.” The message: In Mitt Romney's America, anything is possible.

And, as in every other Romney ad, it ended with a black-and-white still photograph of Mitt and Ann holding hands on a windswept farm. Again, steadiness and warmth.

These are the ways, overt and subtle, that Romney is sharpening his brand. The Republican presidential front-runner's immediate objective is to polish off his rivals by winning the next two primaries — Saturday in South Carolina and Jan. 31 in Florida. But with the race quickly moving beyond the early states, Romney also is trying to market himself to millions of voters in all the other states who are tuning in and forming their first impressions.

“As the megaphone gets bigger, you want to just continue that message that you've been building upon,” Romney adviser Russ Schriefer said. “This is ultimately going to be a contest between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama — the choice between what Mitt Romney will be talking and campaigning about and what Barack Obama has been doing, and competing visions for America.”

To many voters, Romney is an enigmatic candidate, and the battle to brand him is underway in South Carolina. The consequences are likely to ripple across the country and, if he becomes the nominee, set the terms for the general election fight with Obama.

The championship is the essence

Nikos Papaioannou wrote about LeBron James and points out that if you do not win at least one championship will go down in history as just another very good player.

Actually now it is irrelevant what does LeBron James in the regular season. If it disappeared in season 4 and extending one or more games or makes priests and leading Miami from victory to victory.

In the last two games against the Heat Warriors and Clippers, the Chosen One was the famous Frozen One of the last period, astochontas-to-minimal effort it took to send the critical iron shots. Miami defeated in both games. So what? Can the next game to make double or triple to put 60 points and Miami beat or it may disappear again. Again it does not matter.

For-maybe-more gifted in talent and somatodomi basketball player who ever stepped into a park with a career avg 27.7 points, 7.1 rebounds and 7 assists, the time has come to be judged by the only objective criterion of greatness. This is no different from the tournament will win.

To start the playoffs in the NBA, nothing of all that will do or will not do that LeBron will be important, because quite simply not the issue. Let's top scorer, we declared MVP, we included the best five, let's step on the moon. If you do not win-I do not believe that we will succeed this year, the champion's ring, then any exploits in the regular season will not mean anything. It makes sense only if accompanied by the league.

In any other case I can not help in categorizing the players with the title "much ado about nothing." Popular, marketable to death by countless individual discrimination, infinite talent, terrible highlights in the regular season, hefty contracts with Nike, Adidas or Reebok and annual revenues of tens of millions of dollars. Immediately immediately I come three such in mind. The Vince Carter, a Tracy McGrady and Allen Iverson. The first was hailed as the successor to Michael Jordan. Scary physical skills. In his best year, with the shirt of the Nets, was avg 27.5 points, 5.9 assists and 4.7 rmpaount. The T-Mac, the Magic had 32.1 points, 6.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists. O ?The Answer?, culminating in the Sixers reached the point to make 33 points per game, 7.9 assists to share and make 1.9 steals.

All three, like James could fill not one but two stadiums themselves. Sold millions of shirts, it was always the first to vote for the All Star Games in the NBA, became known across the length and breadth of the land and flooded the Internet with incredible highlights. Nike, based on the Carter's revolutionary technology Shox, designing the set of shoes and clothes. The Reebok revived with shoes and clothes ?The Answer? of Iverson. The Adidas poulage like hot buns the T-Mac. On substance, though? Nothing. Leagues? Zero!

I see tremendous similarities of James with these three talented but ... untitled players. Their differences, for the moment is very low. The LeBron, not to go down in history as another Carter, McGrady and Iverson, should at least win a championship. Until then everything and make the regular season is irrelevant. Especially for him!

Nike Brings Their Famous Dunk Sneaker To The Golf Course

Today Nike has shown off an innovation that blended together two things that haven't really seen an innovation in quite some time.

Although Nike Golf used the latest in golfing technology with their footwear, the shoes have not changed much - until now.

There have been golfing "inspired" dunks, but this is the first time Nike has mashed up a Nike dunk with golfing technology to make the Nike Dunk NG Golf Shoe.

Although most golfers wouldn't want to look overly casual on the golf course, we think that they all may want to feel comfortable. For those of you who think the attire at golf courses are too stuffy, then these shoes are perfect for you.

The Nike Dunk NG comes with two sets of shoelaces, allowing athletes to either accentuate the bright color of the shoe or to opt for traditional white. With full-grain waterproof leather, the Nike Dunk NG can battle the elements of poor weather conditions.

The Scorpion Stinger Spikes ensure that traction is not an issue for the Nike Dunk NG. The new golf shoe will soon be seen on Nike athletes Michelle Wie and Anthony Kim.

Wie will be sporting them this week at the Women's Canadian Golf Opening, and Kim will follow in soon on the PGA Tour!

How 8 clothing brands rate on satisfaction

Consumers are growing dissatisfied with the clothing from major apparel companies they're seeing on store shelves, according to the latest surveys from the American Consumer Satisfaction Index.

Click on the photo above to see how some of the most famous clothing brands rate in customer satisfaction.

The Index is an ongoing, comprehensive survey of thousands of consumers about the products and services provided by more than 225 companies. Its surveyors have been asking consumers to rate their satisfaction with companies, their products and services, on a scale of 0 to 100 since 1995.

Apparel in general rates an 81 on a scale of o100, which doesn't seem bad until you realize that the satisfaction score was 83 in 2010.

"After two years of steady improvement, customer satisfaction with apparel products such as jeans, hosiery and underwear is unraveling, down 3.6% to 80," said Claes Fornell, a business professor at the University of Michigan, which founded the index. "The substantial decline at the industry level comes from dampened satisfaction (-5% to 79) with smaller companies, the group that makes up the majority of the industry's market share.

"Adding to the problem is a lack of improvement among four of five major manufacturers," he continued.

"On one level, increasing costs — particularly cotton — have led to higher prices, which are at the root of the industry's problem with falling or stagnating customer satisfaction," Fornell explained. "Cotton prices, however, have plunged recently by more than 50%, while apparel prices have failed to follow suit. In order for customer satisfaction to return to previous levels, some adjustment in the industry's overall pricing structure is likely needed."

Americans are more satisfied with their athletic shoes, up 1 point to 81, according to Index surveys.

"But consumers see little difference among the brands, big or small," Fornell said. "The largest players in the category — Adidas and Nike — are deadlocked with scores of 80 after a 2% drop for Adidas this year."

Nike was unchanged, but its 2010 and 2011 score of 80 is the best in the 16-year history of the index.

"While customers perceive Nike as the winner when it comes to a high-quality product," Fornell said, the superior value delivered by Adidas makes the satisfaction matchup a draw for 2011. The aggregate of smaller athletic shoe brands such as New Balance and Skechers inches ahead with a 1% gain to 81, but the difference is negligible."

The index calls itself an economic indicator of consumer satisfaction, surveying on 225 companies in 47 industries and 10 economic sectors. It takes its data from interviews with approximately 70,000 customers annually.

Would Bond wear those?

Would Bond wear those? Daniel Craig steps out in boyish orange laces at Paris premiere

He may be the king of cool, but Daniel Craig appears to have borrowed shoes from Jedward.

The Bond star was on French soil for the Paris premiere of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, stepping out in a pair of Nike trainers with bright orange laces.

His shoes were rather ill-fitting with the blazer, buttoned-up shirt, tie and fitted jeans he also opted for.

His casual footwear clashed with the immaculately dressed Rooney Mara, who looked typically striking in a black LBD speckled with sequins.

The rising star, 26, who was also joined by co-stars Stellan Skarsgard and Elodie Yung, braved the chill minus her tights and kept her sultry look fixed firmly in place.

Perhaps Craig chose his footwear for an easy sprint back to the hotel; after arriving in Paris with Rachel Weisz ahead of the red carpet event.

The pair were spotted touching down at Roissy Airport - and despite not being renowned for his love of photographers, Craig managed to flash them a smile.

They were clearly besotted with one another as they clung to each other while strolling hand-in-hand, both hiding beneath their celebrity shades and hats.

The Lovey Bones actress Rachel looked simple but chic in fitted blue jeans and a pair of black ankle boots, which she teamed with a striped sweatshirt and suede beige jacket with an inner fur trim.

Daniel opted for a similar style, kicking back in his denims, but obviously keen to stick with a stylish approach by complimenting the outfit with suit shoes, a flat cap and aviator jacket.

Having married in June 2011, this Christmas would have been the pair's first as a married couple.

The notoriously coy couple wed in a private New York ceremony, with only four guests in attendance, including Craig's 18-year-old daughter Ella and Weisz's four-year-old son Henry.

Despite their whirlwind romance which surfaced following their time as co-stars on Dream House, Craig and Weisz had been friends for many years.

While Craig is now busy focusing on his latest Bond venture with Sam Mendes, his A-list reputation did little to pull in box office ratings.

However despite the David Fincher film - which cost $90million to make - only raking in $72m, movie bosses are still going ahead with a sequel.

A Sony representative revealed that the second book from Swedish author Stieg Larsson's trilogy, The Girl Who Played With Fire, is set to be adapted by the same team.

He said: '[Dragon Tattoo] continues to do strong business and nothing has changed with respect to development of the next book.'

Stephen Curry Hits the Nike Laboratory to Figure Out How He's Injuring His Ankle

Stephen Curry has sprained his ankle multiple times. These things don't just happen. You can't injure your ankle more than one time playing professional basketball. It just doesn't make any sense. So what type of explanation could there be for this unusual phenomenon? It must be the shoes.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, Curry recently traveled to the Nike laboratory in Beaverton, Ore. His mission: finding a shoe that fits properly.  Curry had his shoes and foot analyzed and came to the conclusion that his ankle has a tendency to roll outward, which has been causing his low ankle sprains.

Curry has decided to switch to a different sneaker while he waits for the complete analysis to come in. He has changed to a Nike shoe that fits lower and wider.

You really can do anything with technology these days.  You think Bill Russell underwent a foot and sneaker analysis when he tweaked a muscle or sprained his ankle back in the day?  If it works, I guess it's worth it.  It just seems a little over the top to me.  Maybe I'm old fashioned even though I'm 23. Does that make sense?
