Top 10 fashion must-haves of 2007

Top 10 Fashion Must-Haves of 2007

You know the year is coming to an end when the Top 10 lists start taking over ... Time Magazine has named the 10 must have fashion items of 2007.

10. Cocktail Rings: One of the hottest trends of 2007 that will certainly stick around in 2008. The bigger the better is the way to go with cocktail rings.

9. Red Lipstick: It was big time glamour in 2007 with red lips coming in at number one in the beauty world. Celebrities like Gwen Stefani and Christina Aguilera gave everyday women the courage to go red.

8. Bright Tights: It was the year of the tights in 2007 and the trend will continue through the beginning of 2008. Basic black was always a staple in '07 but colored tights were the big story in 2007.

7. Fedoras: Hats are always in vogue because they are necessary for covering up bad hair days. In 2007 fedoras were no longer just for the boys because honestly they look damn good on the girls. Mary Kate Olson and Ashley Simpson made them part of their regular wardrobes.

6. Vests: A trend usually reserved for dorks and losers was a hot for the cool kids in '07. I am not talking about your standard bubble vest; we are talking a smooth and sexy menswear inspired vest.

5. Ankle Boots:
2006 had thigh high boots and like they say what goes up must come down -- so naturally in 2007 ankle boots were topping the style charts.

4. Day Clutch: The bag typically devoted for the evening has gone day. Bags that usually only have room for a lipstick has now been super-sized to fit all of your daytime needs.

3. High Waisted Jeans: Love em or hate em, high waisted jeans finally had their moment in the spotlight in 2007. The most flattering? No, probably not. The most stylish? No, not that either. In spite of their shortcomings high waisted jeans made the list this year.

2. White Sunglasses: They may look like a joke but they aren't, they are a fashion must have for 2007. Celebrities from Drew Barrymore to Lindsay Lohan were all rocking the white sunnies. These sunglasses are great for summer and also work as a "winter white" this winter.

1. Tent Dress: It's shapeless, it makes you look kind of like a tent ... it's a tent dress. This shapeless frock was frowned upon in the beginning but as the months went on women embraced being able to hide their curves behind a billowy dress.

I can't say that I particularly cared for most of what was 'in' this last year.. not much of it was very flattering (so sick of seeing heavier women wearing tights as pants). Haha. Nice wrap up though. I agree on the skinny jeans, they definately should have been up there.

Turns out any article written about style is probably written by a girl so stupid that all she can make a career out of is writing about trends. Last I checked, the only people referring to others as 'dorks and losers' were probably 13 years old. Skank.

Skinny jeans were the trend for 2006.. sorry it took you until the end of 2007 to catch on. :) Anddd I don't see what's "so stupid" about writing trends? Everyone is different, and some people have different interests. Trends do not have to be fashionable, they come in to style, and go out.

People make trends, trends do not make people.
