The ladies from A Little Wicked here checking in with a little fashion query.

If your like us, you tuned in to the Grammys last night and enjoyed the outfits as much as the music—

(Roberta Flack was my FAVE).

From crazy Lady Gaga to Beyonce we noticed a continued trend of super strong shoulders.

RiRi (Rihanna) rocked this look lots last year, and we’re still seeing this structured silhouette on the runway. Especially at the Armani 2010 Fall show in Paris last week.

It was no surprise to learn that Gaga Loca and Ms. Sasha Fierce pulled from Armani’s Privé collection for last nights show.

So power shoulders are hot, we get it. The question is: can normal chicks sport this style without looking too, well,  Gaga?

Because we stock all things cool, A Little Wicked carries several pieces 80s pieces (an awesome Escada dress, a “Michael Jackson/Thriller-esque leather jacket, etc) that feature salient shoulders, BUT most customers aren’t super comfortable with the look—especially girls who think they already have broad shoulders.







Beyonce grammy Our clientele are a pretty savvy bunch, so to not see this trend translate from runway to street makes us wonder if this is one trend that is more fashion fantasy than reality.

What do you think? Strong Shoulders—Cool Or Costume? Let us know in comment section below.

Mil gracias, and as always, stay wicked, ;)

R&B, xxoo,
