AT A GIG..
A dusty desert 70’s hippie cosmic disco vibe for a recent dj gig. We are entering an aquarian age after all.

Purchase a Bullet Bra by Haleh Nematzadeh at Pat Field
I really can’t stop wearing these pieces personally, purchase yours at Pat Field including a new denim colorway! Try wearing these with your cutoff shorts (high waisted or you look a lil too trashy) and watch what happens.Click on image above to see more.

Sometimes I feel when I don’t have much to say the universe does it for me. Experiencing a personal breakthrough will do that. What does this have to do with Liv Nervo in an all white Haleh Nematzadeh ensemble pictured here with fellow vixen Kesha have to do with this? Everything and nothing. Though recent seeming setbacks in my life prevented me from doing the thing that I most love to do: make clothes and present collections (playing music is almost as equal!) , I will always continue creating garments, for a particular girl, my “girl” so to say. It serves her, illuminates her, enough to make Vogue Italy’s site, along with a bunch of others. This is the magic of being an alchemist. Turn your darkness into gold and you’ll be rewarded with something far magical than you can ever dream of. A special thanks to Nervo for throwing down in the looks.
DYING TO BE DANCING: MY DJ MIX DEBUT
TrustTheNight,TrustTheLight by Haleh.tv
Dancing, DJ’ing , and all things in between. I finally started playing music recently as a way to express through song and celebration, what I was saying through the clothes. From time to time, you might catch me late night sharing some good times, and wardrobe loves.
“TrustTheNight, TrustTheLight”, is bits and pieces of what I am feeling and moving to these days. You can also check it out, an other Haleh.tv DJ mixes on Soundcloud !!! : http://soundcloud.com/haleh-tv
TWIN SHADOW=MAJOR MUSICAL OBSESSION
Pitchfork mentioned Twin Shadow’s new album as being “sophisticated enough to withstand close, repeated listening. The songs may be catchy, but their intricacy and thoughtful storytelling makes them stick”. I would say that’s spot on considering they have been my musical obsession since October. Check out the video to my can’t take it off repeat track, “Castles in the Snow”.
STREETSTYLE- COOL GIRLS ON THE PROWL
We only know her as the “couture for sure” girl. She pulls off the perfect modern spin on a neo 90’s mixed with 2011 aesthetic. It’s not quite literal which I love, but throws in a couple of random twists like the garter tights trend we predicted here a year ago. It’s quite empowering to see young women wearing these stockings while attending to their day to day duties.
The thing which gets her whole look together is the strong beauty aesthetic. See sunny day beauty tomorrow for more on that..
Madeleine is a singer with a talent for layering and without any bulk. Notice all the different textures she mixes: Mongolian lamb fur, leather, and leopard print cowhair. We love the below the knee full shaped tweed circle skirt for the winter, against these tougher textures to keep the skirt from looking too granny. You got to have a pretty good eye to throw in the ankle socks over the tights, and still look elongated.

“Bring em’ out, Bring em’ out, Establish your Personal Style! ”
It took me a while to get clear on writing about how to instruct others to establish their sense of personal style. What was really going through my head, which seemed contrary to the topic where the following questions: At what point do you love yourself? In the clothes you wear? With that great haircut? Or when you lose those 5 naggy pounds? At what point do you decide that you accept yourself and how does that measure out in the way you present yourself to the world?
Your style is synonymous with yourself, or at least it should be. As it became clear to me in a revelation, bringing out your true personal style is really about loving yourself.
The following tried and tested few tips below can establish the facets of your expression, or who you truly are to reflect to the world to enjoy. Let’s do this without trying to change anything about you currently, as the fashion industry anciently still dictates. When you truly adore your essence, appearance becomes an effortless means to expose yourself and your truest loves daily on my personal favorite catwalk, the streets.
1) Who are you really? – This is the first and critical question that not only has to do with your style, but also will lead you towards an enriching and powerful life. It’s not a coincidence that one of the most powerful mantras is to “Know Thyself”. People often think fashion and spirituality having nothing to do with one another, but the laws of the universe affect everything accordingly and fashion is NO exception. Know thyself ladies, and the homework here is to put together a list of anything from colors, to foods, to activities, places you like to vacation. Through this exercise, you will see certain patterns emerge. For example, I love: Nightlife, high fashion, forward thinking types, revolution, music, and free spirits. Now you try it, you are also using this list for excersize #3 below.
2) Greatest hits so far- Everyone has a top 10 in their closet for various reasons. Your top 10 are the pieces you feel amazing in, reach for all the time, or just can’t seem to live without. Maybe it’s those heels that make you look super leggy, or that dress you wore with the perfect color and detailing that brings out your features. Whatever they are, there are reasons why you gravitate towards them constantly. Your work is to identify those 10 pieces that you love, and then write down why. By establishing the why, you are able to bring in more of the same for future invested purchases. You also begin to realize the patterns of why certain pieces work for you vs. others. These patterns are what also help guide you towards future purchases. For example, if you are starting to notice that you keep reaching for your trouser pants, then this cut is great going forward too.
3) Seeing is believing-I’m a sucker for vision boards, and while I know many are put off of by methods that involve tedious tasks, what you see is truly what you get. In other words, “ Seeing is believing”. Put together a vision board of everything you love in the world of style and outside of it ( use your list from excersize 1 as a recourse). This can be anything from a picture of a celebrity whose look you love (even though we at www.haleh.tv feel celebrity style is passé, we strive not to make idols of them but respect it for the sake of doing this exercise), a picture of a dream vacation destination, music you like to listen to, activities you love. This can especially be pieces that you would like to add to your “Fashion Fund” (see link below for Bella Life article on tips).

See yourself emerge through these tips. Help yourself define your style and give it a name even if it’s cheesy (for ex, urban Eco warrior, or Bollywood princess). I can’t stress enough how amazing of a life you can live when your truest of selves is exposed. Take it from my personal hero, Vivienne Westwood, the birthmother of punk who once said famously, “You always have a better life if you wear impressive clothes”.

BOWLING FOR FASHION? PEREZ HILTON DIGS KATERINA GRAHAM IN HALEH!!!
When I first decided to work on a collection introducing a new version of glow in the dark fashion, never in my wildest dreams would I have anticipated my “Lydia” dress ending up on actress Katerina Graham chicly bowling at a 2011 new years event.
I’m loving this being featured in Perez Hilton’s Coco Perez site. Perez’s take is fun, fresh, and very fashion forward. Sort of like the anti ” Joan Rivers fashion police”. Click on the photo above to see his thoughts on the look for the evening!
My mission has, and always will be to inspire women to free their spirits through fashion, to fearlessly play dress up. To push them to try something new and discover a new version of themselves. Anyone can dress “freaky,” or dress in performance art costumes, for me it’s always about having one foot in high fashion, one foot in reality. The delicate balance of taking something considered “unwearable,” giving it that street feel of making it work and look lovely in real life. Notice she didn’t add a crazy hairdo, tons of jewelry, or wacky fairytale makeup. The dress, and her beauty are enough.
You can see the dress below in all its runway glory on Lydia Hearst.
