10 Designer Clothing Items You Secretly Want

If you're always at the cutting edge of style, then you'll know what to wear when, and which colours, and designers are in fashion. If not then you might not know what all the fuss is about designer clothing, and why you need it.

Here's what you need to know

1. A designer handbag can be bought because it is fashionable or stylish. If you want something quality that will last, and represent value for money over many years, then perhaps a muted colour or design will be more appropriate than a handbag that might be highly fashionable now, but will look silly in a year's time.

2. The same goes for designer shoes too. You might want a pair of shoes for wearing on special occasions, or some that you'll wear everyday. Only you can decide which ones will represent the best value for money, and be worn the most.

3. Designer glasses are an obvious choice, and if you wear your glasses all the time, then why not splash out on a pair of comfy frames from your favourite designer, or that really suite your personality?

4. Designer sunglasses are always popular, and if you can't quite afford the celebrity clothes why not wear the same sunglasses that they wear? Perhaps you might even be thought of as a celeb yourself? Don't forget that you can wear them all year round, so they're not just for summer.

5. A stylish designer dress can be a shred investment. You might choose one that you know you'll wear often, or one that like the shoes, might only be worn on special occasions. Whichever you choose, you're sure to feel a million dollars when you wear it.

6. Maybe there's a certain designer who's clothes just fit you well, and really suit you. You might think that it's worth the expense to have well fitting clothes that look good. Maybe you'll even wear them for work, so that you can look good during the day as well as when out for the evening.

7. Another obvious designer piece is a nice watch. Perhaps you're favourite designer brand does watches, and you want to show your allegiance with a nice watch.

8. Designer jewellery such as earrings, bracelets and necklaces are also a nice and discreet way to make a change form the mass produced and high street brands that everybody wears. You might want a logo, or a colour scheme or another design that isn't so obvious to those who aren't as well up on their designers as you are.

9. Other designer accessories you might choose to go with your clothing might include hair clips luggage or key rings. Perhaps you haven't yet found the perfect dress, shoes or handbag, or don't want to blow your entire budget on one piece. Why not see if you can get more for your money with lots of smaller items?

10. Designer swimwear is also a great idea, especially if you a big fan of beach holidays, or just lounging by the pool. Why not combine a nice designer bikini with a pair of designer sunglasses and see if people will think you're the celeb next time you're on holiday?!

Now you know more about designer items, and what you want and what's right for you, perhaps now is the time to get the designer swimwear, handbag or shoes that you really want.

Anthropologie Clothing - My Best-Kept Secret

Anthropologie, the large clothing retailer that remains relatively unknown outside their anchor stores' regions, is one of my favorite "stories" in the fashion world. In fact, I like most everything about them except for how they dip their greedy fingers into my handbag (figuratively, of course) every time I visit them physically or virtually. If you haven't heard of Anthropologie, you might have heard of their parent company, Urban Outfitters. Anthropologie was spun off to cater to the Urban Outfitters audience that grew up and became successful. In essence, Urban Outfitters is trying to follow their customers later into their lives.

They've take a unique approach with much of their clothing, including limited distribution. If you find a piece of Anthropologie clothing, you will not find that same piece at any other retailer. Limited run clothing items are common, and you'll even see some one of a kind items from time to time. Floral prints, appliques, laces, velvets and dainty details can be found in many Anthropologie clothing styles. What I find so appealing about their style is the quiet confidence of it. It really is for the woman who wants to look good, but knows that she doesn't need tight fits or low cuts to accomplish that. They simply make attractive, sexy, confident, elegant clothing. This is a trend that I wish were more mainstream, and these kinds of clothes really make a woman feel like a woman. They also focus heavily on accessories and home décor, so chances are that if you like the style of their clothing, you'll also like their other offerings for both you and your home. And it also makes for a nice shopping experience.

According to Anthropologie's literature, their target customer is a woman in her 30's to 40's with an upscale income. But walk into any store and you might see a different story. You'll find women of all ages browsing the racks, and they stay there for quite some time. Urban Outfitters claims that the average shopping experience at their Anthropologie stores lasts a full 80 minutes, as compared to the 15 minutes seen at other retailers. This could be a function of the age, of course, but that wouldn't be telling the whole story. It's safe to say that I'm a fan of the Anthropologie brand and the Anthropologie fashion principles, but I'll also be the first to admit that they're not very budget friendly!

Is Fred Perry Clothing the New Lyle & Scott?

A few years later in 1934 he caused a recognizable shockwave in the British High Society. Because never before had the child with a working class background achieved what made Fred Perry a national hero and introduced tennis to a whole new audience.

A victory in the legendary Wimbledon tennis tournament, it was a breakthrough, because Wimbledon was until then the total domain of the rich snobs and aristocrats of the upper classes. The prize money of 25 quid was not awarded to Fred Perry, as he was an armature, but a non-profit institution donated the prize as recognition of his achievement.

And in addition he also was denied the winners medal and the obligatory Wimbledon club tie which were not formally awarded, but only handed to him in the changing room instead of presented to him on centre court as is the tradition.

The two following years in 1935 and in 36, Perry won the Wimbledon tournament again. Even today there is no Englishman that has ever managed to win three Wimbledon victories in a row. Perry also went on to win tournaments in Australia, France and the United States. Perry is noted along with the Swede Björn Borg to be the only men to be crowned King of the Centre Court five times.

At the end of the 30s Fred Perry became a tennis professional in the U.S. and eventually returned to England in 1947. He always complained that the Wimbledon players green shirts made them look like they were in the army and therefore contributed 75 white Fred Perry T-shirts that he had made to the players.

These were Fred Perry T-shirts, but they still had no emblem on them. The players who had been given the shirts wanted to thank him and came up with the idea of adding a logo to the shirts so that it could clearly be seen by all that they were donated by Fred. They opted for the laurel wreath, which he had won at the 1934 All England Cup, this became the instant symbol of Fred Perry clothing

From then on all Fred Perry T-shirts sold like hot cakes, even the arrogant upper class began to wear Fred Perry clothing with the laurel wreath to play tennis and also as casual wear. It is even said that the Queen once asked him why he thought his shirts were so popular, Perry simply replied: "Highness, my shirts fit!".

Fifty years after his first Wimbledon victory the "Fred Perry statue" was dedicated (1984) and this statue is now the symbol of Wimbledon.

Darrell F writing how Fred Perry Clothing is coming back in a big way...

Fred Perry died at the age of 85, on 2 February 1995. His legend lives until today, the laurel wreath at least serves not only as a reminder of a legendary professional tennis player, but above all as a symbol of working-class and rebellion though his ever popular Fred Perry clothing line.
