Your hands may have an impeccable manicure, their skin may be as soft as it can get, but you still can’t shake off the feeling that there’s something still missing. Perhaps what you’re looking for is a brand new and colorful pair of gloves.

 

For the fall 2008 - winter 2009 season, designers have taken on the role of Santa, bringing us plenty of options to choose from. Those hot fashionable “presents” waiting for us this winter season won't be hard to find either, as they have already left the catwalks and reached the streets.

 

Disney fairytales have always been telling us that every true-blooded princess must wear a pair of gloves on special occasions. This also applies to a true fashionista of our times – this season is about imaginative and spirited women, ready to take to the streets wearing really colorful gloves. Whether they're fingered or fingerless, long or short, of leather or knitted, they're a must and their importance should be regarded accordingly.

 

Consequently, gloves can do more than just protect your delicate hands against the cold and the wind. Fashion designers like Karl Lagarfeld, Betsey Johnson, Mara Hoffman and others have successfully resuscitated the once much-dreaded trend of the fingerless day gloves (aka biker gloves) – hot red, black, passionate yellow, whatever color you may choose proves you’re both a true fashion connoisseur and a hard working woman.

 

Gloves are actually as versatile as the scarves, the only difference being in the way they have come to be trendy – gloves are a winter accessory that turned to be a sophisticated item for a very fancy summer gown as well. That's why, if wisely chosen, they can be used to add a touch of personality to your outfits all year round.

 

The surprising aspect of this new trend in terms of accessories is that gloves are not just useful, but also present themselves as something sophisticated, denoting class and that cannot be worn by just anybody. The woman who can put on a pair of gloves and work them like a true dame is nothing but enviable.
