Autum (Fall) / Winter 2009 / 2010 Fashion Trends
As the world slowly pulls itself out of an economic depression, the Fall 2009 (Autumn 2009) season will largely define what 2010 fashion will look like. From over the knee boots to capes and cloaks, our fashion trends guide for the colder months of 2009 and 2010 will help to keep your wardrobe sorted, and your looks on the cutting edge.

Over-the-knee boots: these are the must-have item for Fall 2010; but those daring enough will find the tops of their boots creeping up even higher with thigh-high boots also making it mainstream. From elegant suedes to darkly futuristic wound-and-bound leathers, the options are many and various.

Ripped thights and Stockings: Our wartime female counterparts would never have imagined this day; where laddered stockings are not only acceptable, but fashionable. The ripped stocking trend is a close cousin of the ripped denim trend, a step towards a new era of neo-Grunge.

Black Eyed Peas' Fergie gets her own signature scent

She conquered the music industry, starred in ten feature films and has designed a popular range of shoes so releasing her own fragrance was the obvious next career step.Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie, real name Stacy Ann Ferguson, recently announced the release of Outspoken, her own signature scent for Avon.

And now the 35-year-old appears in a new television commercial promoting the fragrance which is set to be aired nationally in the coming weeks.

The perfume, sold by US retail giant Avon, is said to contain base notes of Ebony and Black leather with frozen blackberry and saffron as top notes making is a very flowery and fruity mix.

Avon describe it as 'a fragrance for a woman with fearless confidence, who is true to herself and her beliefs, who is outspoken, sexy, and unexpected.'

Very much like Fergie's personality.

In the ad Fergie is seen wearing a skin tight black mini dress and dancing to music while enjoying the smell of the fragrance.
I’m always seeking out new ways to express myself,' Fergie said of the partnership.

'And fragrance is the perfect opportunity to share my originality and confidence with my fans, and the Avon customer. I couldn’t be happier to be working with a brand with such a strong reputation for supporting women.'
The singer, who married Transformers actor Josh Duhamel back in January 2009 after five years together, has been on a break from her music career in recent months.

She was spotted out with her husband over the weekend going for a hike near their home in Los Angeles.

Fergie: She is grateful to be successful and famous

Fergie is grateful to be successful and famous.The Black Eyed Peas singer is very appreciative of the success she has in her life because she can remember what it was like to be broke and homeless and addicted to drugs. Fergie – who became addicted to methamphetamine, known as ‘crystal meth’, after she left the girl group Wild Orchid in 2001 – said: “I had to move back to my mom’s and start collecting unemployment benefit because I had spent all my child actor money – so I have been up and down with money. I appreciate the value of it.”

Award-Winning Singer Fergie Joins Thousands of Participants at the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer

Fergie, six-time Grammy Award winner and Avon spokesperson, was a special guest at the eighth annual Los Angeles-area Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in Santa Barbara, CA, on September 11-12. The Avon Walk raised more than $6.4 million to advance access to care and breast cancer research, and attracted more than 2,800 participants from 45 states and Canada, including 322 breast cancer survivors.Fergie, a global ambassador for the Avon Foundation for Women, walked alongside walkers on the last leg of their weekend-long, 39.3-mile journey, boosting their spirits for the final stretch of the 13-mile route on Sunday. After crossing the finish line at Carpinteria State Beach on Sunday afternoon, Fergie congratulated the Avon Walk Santa Barbara’s top ten fund-raisers. She then joined the Walk participants’ family, friends and supporters at the inspirational Closing Ceremony to announce a total of more than $3 million in initial grants awarded to 12 organizations in Southern California.

“I had the chance to meet some of you out on the route today and hear stories of why you walk,” Fergie said at the Closing Ceremony. “I can only say – for me and my mom and father who are with me – thank you. Thank you for taking a stand and for walking an insane amount of miles to fight breast cancer. I’m sure you all know how much good the money you raised will do.”

In addition to Fergie, breast cancer survivor, Noelle Krejci, from Corona, CA, also took part in the Closing Ceremony, sharing her moving story of triumph over breast cancer and providing inspiration to the thousands of people present. Also joining Fergie on stage was Dr. Susan Love, a leader in the breast cancer movement for more than 30 years, who accepted a grant to advance the work of the Love/Avon Army of Women.

Avon Foundation President Carol Kurzig said, “We are delighted with the success of our Avon Walk Santa Barbara and with the funds we are able to award to the Southern California organizations leading the fight against breast cancer. This is a return to our Southern California roots since the very first long-distance breast cancer walk to benefit the Avon Foundation for Women took place here in 1998. We are especially privileged that Fergie joined us to make our return so memorable. In her solo career and as the female vocalist for the Black Eyed Peas, Fergie has risen to the top of the music world; but she’s a California girl and knows how important it is to help those in need.”

Fergie presented 12 grants at the Closing Ceremony, dramatically demonstrating how the funds raised will immediately benefit the community. More grants are slated to be awarded throughout the year to breast cancer programs in California and nationwide.

The grants included:

* Project Angel Food received $125,000 to support meal delivery and nutritional counseling services for people fighting breast cancer and their families throughout Los Angeles County. CEO Margaret Steele accepted the grant.

About the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer Santa Barbara

During the Avon Walk Santa Barbara, a noncompetitive event, women and men had a choice of walking a marathon (26.2 miles) or a marathon and a half (39.3 miles) over the weekend. The event kicked off Saturday, September 11, with an early morning Opening Ceremony at Chase Palm Park. Following the ceremony, walkers began their journey through Santa Barbara. Walkers had the choice of walking a half or full marathon on Saturday through the Santa Barbara area, supported by an all-volunteer crew and cheered by family and supporters along the route. Walkers and crew spent the night at the “Wellness Village” at the Santa Barbara Polo and Racquet Club in Carpinteria, CA, which featured two-person sleeping tents, hot showers, prepared meals, entertainment, volunteer medical services and comprehensive support services, along with leisure activities such as relaxing yoga to stretch out their muscles, a spa zone with mini-back-and-foot-massages, and “tool school 101” demonstrations from sponsor Tomboy Tools. On Sunday, September 12, walkers completed their final 13.1 miles, and celebrated their achievement with Fergie at the Closing Ceremony at Carpinteria State Beach with thousands of family and friends.

To participate in the Avon Walk Santa Barbara, each walker raised a minimum of $1,800 in donations. The Avon Foundation for Women [a 501(c)(3) public charity] raises and manages funds, which are awarded to local, regional and national breast cancer organizations to support five areas of the breast cancer cause, including awareness and education, screening and diagnosis, access to treatment, support services, and scientific research, all with a focus on the medically underserved.

Donations are still being accepted for the Avon Walk Santa Barbara, and registration is still open for women and men to take part in the two remaining Avon Walks of 2010 in New York, NY (October 10-11) and Charlotte, NC (October 24-25). The Avon Walk Santa Barbara is the seventh of nine Avon Walks this year, following successful events in Houston, TX; Washington, D.C.; Boston, MA; Chicago, IL; Rocky Mountains, CO; and San Francisco, CA that have raised more than $30 million so far.

The Avon Walks series launched in 2003 and through mid-2010 the Avon Walks have raised more than $350 million through the dedication of nearly 120,000 participating women and men.

Fergie struggled with her hair during school days

Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie has revealed it used to take her two hours to perfect her curly locks before school every day. Fergie, who is known for her glamorous red carpet looks, also said she hasn't always been so stylish and had many fashion disasters when she was a teenager, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"There are many pictures of me from high school and I had the spiral perm. I would take two hours sometimes to do my hair before school, which is ridiculous," she said.

Fergie also recently removed her eyebrow piercing after many years and admitted there was a time when she wouldn't have felt complete without her piercings.

Fergie launches first-ever fragrance

The scent is said to be a blend of bold floral fragrances.

The 35-year-old Nine star said of the perfume: 'From my music to my wardrobe, my style is all about speaking up and making a statement.

'That's why my first-ever fragrance exudes independence – Outspoken definitely turns heads, but it also lets your true personality shine through.'

Fashion's Night Out: Fergie at the Grove

"Fergie! Fergie!" cries a young boy in a fringed leather jacket clutching an iPhone in one hand and a Fergie CD in the other as he runs toward the escalator where she has appeared. Dressed in a short, tight, sky-blue dress, Fergie hugs the boy and poses for a photo. About 200 people have gathered at Nordstrom at the Grove, where the Black Eyed Peas singer signs autographs for shoppers who buy from her newest shoe collection.

She sits at a black lacquered table surrounded by shelves that display chunky suede and leather boots in pearl grey, caramel and black as well as suede stilettos with dainty crisscross patterns over the toe. Fergie is wearing a pair of the stilettos, and one onlooker remarks, "Yeah, but did she actually design them herself?"

Meanwhile, Fergie sits like a queen, greeting her subjects as she squeezes the hands of each person she meets. The fans represent a variety of ages and cultural backgrounds. Bodyguards at her side keep order but everyone is pretty relaxed.

One employee opines, "She should have come in on a string and lit herself on fire or something."

In the background, the party atmosphere that was inaugurated earlier with the appearance of TOMS Shoe creator Blake Mycoskie is still in the air. In the background the DJ plays Sheila E.'s "The Glamorous Life."
