IU in “You and I”

Fans have fallen in love with IU’s whimsical look for “You and I“, and it’s a great addition to any wardrobe.

This vintage-inspired look centers around a cute one-piece dress. There are tons of vintage dresses out there, and the key is to find a fit for your body type that suits you just right.

IU’s dress incorporates a contrast collar that gives off a sweetheart vibe, and the shorter hemline makes it fun and flirty. There’s no danger of a dull, school uniform look here — in fact, it’d be perfect for a daytime date.

Another way to bring that vintage flair into your closet is to find the perfect blouse with a peter pan collar. Choosing a collar with a fun pattern or wearing it with a knit is a great way to keep the top from getting stuffy or looking too much like workwear. Pair it with a short, full skirt or a pair of skinny jeans and you’re good to go!

The must-have from this outfit are the pop-colored mary jane pumps. Their retro style brings something fresh to any outfit and is perfect for the upcoming Spring season. Colorful pumps can be dressed down with jeans or dressed up with a sexy one-piece for a night on the town. Look for them in a great material like satin or velvet.

Tie everything together with a few smart accessories from the local flea market or thrift store. Faux pearls or a leather watch will bring some authenticity to your IU-inspired look.

Jang Geun Suk brings his ‘Love Rain’ look to High Cut

2011 was a fruitful year for Jang Geun Suk, but he confesses that it wasn’t all glamourous.

‘Asia’s Prince’ Jang Geun Suk managed to combine retro fashion with the latest styles for his recent photo shoot, much like his dual roles in the upcoming KBS2 drama ‘Love Rain‘ where he plays an art student from the 70′s and a modern gentleman from 2012. The actor who is busy going back and forth between Korea and Japan sacrificed the little time he has to pose for ‘High Cut‘ Magazine.

Jang Geun Suk wore pieces from the Comme des Garçons collection, as well as Rick Owens, and Ann Demeulemeester. He was dressed in warmer, earthier tones overall and the highlight of the photo shoot was his cover shot. As soon as the actor was handed a single rose, he struck a seductive pose that would lure in the ladies after a single look. The Japanese fans on set that were present to see the actor reportedly fell head over heels.

At the interview that took place shortly after the shoot, Jang Geun Seuk remarked, “My mom looked into my fortune for 2012 and she told that I would continue to be busy until next year. She told me to brace myself. Looking back on 2011, I wanted to do a lot of things that I enjoy, but the fact that people were saying that I was only a big deal in Japan and a nobody in Korea was really quite burdensome and difficult.”

The actor who seemed more exhausted than usual also said, “It’s true that I have accomplished a lot more than I expected or thought I would, and there’s a lot on my mind. I just hope that the public will accept me for the way I am, and watch me to continue to grow and develop.”

The photos from Jang Geun Suk’s photo shoot could be found in the 68th edition of ‘High Cut Magazine’, which hit stands January 5th, as well as on their website at www.highcut.co.kr.
