Fall Fashion 2013: Five Ways to Wear the Moto Trend Melissa Matters The moto trend is big for fall 2013. In fact, Cosmopolitan says a moto jacket and leather pants are two of the 20 things you “need” for fall 2013. I suppose you could survive without a new jacket and pants. However, if you are planning to go shopping soon, why not purchase some fall trends? I’m loving all the biker jackets, vegan leather and cute boots. I saw the moto trend at almost every store I walked
into or browsed online in September. The best part is there are versions of this fall fashion trend for all ages and budgets. Here are five ways to wear the moto trend. Feminine Flair For fall fashion 2013, my favorite way to wear the moto trend is with a feminine dress and a moto jacket. Some tights, a loose bun and delicate earrings keep this look from being too tough. Try this quilted moto jacket
from Anthropologie on for size. Florals are popular for fall so it’s easy to pair these two looks together. Top off your outfit with some moto boots. Bold Color While black moto jackets are popular, there are many beautiful, vibrant ways to wear this trend. Green, red or sapphire jackets are a great way to add a pop of color to an all black ensemble. I love this teal moto jacket from Zappos paired with a simple white tee and dark jeans. So chic! Of course, for fall 2013, it’s also okay to step it up a notch and match your jacket to your pants. A Touch of Leather I’ll be honest. I’m not going to show up to a parent-teacher conferences in leather pants and a moto jacket.
However, there are many understated moto pieces for more conservative dressers. Shirts with leather stripes or patches of leather on the shoulders are subtle ways to rock the moto trend. Fake It If you’re like me and try to stay away from leather, you can still wear the moto trend. There are vegan leather and Polyurethane options. You can also find moto jackets made from cotton, tweed or pretty much anything. Staying away from real leather is likely to be easier on your wallet too. Forever 21 has a moto jacket for under $25. Leather Pants I know. You’re thinking of Olivia Newton John’s skintight leather pants in Grease. However, leather leggings can be surprisingly sophisticated. Try these vegan leather leggings for a versatile pair of pants. Wear them with a silky collared shirt and a blazer for a polished look. Of course, if you want to wear a rocker shirt with high heels, you can do that too! There are plenty of moto trends in the stores now. So go ahead and start your fall shopping!

Art Exhibition with 92-Year Old Laguna Beach Artist Paul Darrow BC Space Gallery presents Autumnal Recollections with Our Friend Paul on September 22nd through Nov 10. Paul Darrow, at 92, is one of the elder statesmen of California art. He is still in the studio, still making work, and still exploring the mysteries of art and life. This show pays homage to the great talent and superb person that is Paul Darrow and invites you to pay him a visit as the summer changes to fall. In mounting this exhibition, BC Space is sharing Paul’s work and spirit on the equinox and the shortening of days that follows. Please join us for the artist reception on September 22nd, 4:00-8:00 p.m. and visit with Paul and his friends. There will be an artists conversation and reception with Paul on closing day, November 10 from 3:00-5:00pm. Gallery hours are: Tuesday-Saturday 2-5pm Paul Darrow is a longtime Laguna Beach resident; professor emeritus of Scripps College, cartoonist, sailor, musician, painter, assemblage artist, photographer, and great wit are some of what he is known for. As a
teacher, he has inspired many, and surprises us with changes of scale, of play, much as he has for over 70 his students still visit, often bearing and just plain makes art in the spirit years. gifts. His children and grandchildren are artists as well, including Chris (best known as a musician), Eric, a potter, and Elizabeth Darrow Jones. He is the proud head of this eclectic clan that all seem to have inherited the Darrow gifts. As a cartoonist for the Claremont Courier he has contributed a couple of cartoons a week for over 50 years. As a fine artist he has had numerous one person shows including a show in Memorial park in Claremont this spring. He was included recently in shows at the Pasadena Art Museum and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art during the Getty-sponsored Pacific Standard Time exhibits. Paul’s fine artwork is abstract. Based in experimentation and Buddhism, he seeks to discover the profound in the detritus, the clarity in the deliberately obscure, and the complex truth in simplicity. Using a variety of materials and techniques, Paul juxtaposes previously unrelated objects to create new meanings,

By Melissa Matters I have been scouting out the new arrivals for fall 2013. My wish list is already pretty long. Yet, before I go shopping for fall fashions, it’s time for me to move my tank tops to the back of my closet. In their place, I’ll be placing comfortable, long sleeve shirts along with stretchy leggings. Of course, some emerald cords, a peplum top and the perfect dropwaist dress are just a few things I’ll be shopping for this fall. Here are some fall fashions that need to be in your closet this year. Military Inspiration Glamour.com states that there was a “strong military presence” at the 2013 fall fashion week. Army green is one of my favorite colors so I’m giddy with glee. For this trend, you can go with a classic structured military jacket. However, don’t be afraid to combine the military look with feminine details like lace. Emerald Green Emerald is a rich color that will turn heads. A satin, emerald dress with
some black lace is elegant. However, you can also wear emerald with casual styles. Some emerald skinny jeans can be balanced with a black or white shirt. A lace emerald shirt can be worn under a blazer for work and then out for dinner on Friday night. Peplum Peplum is certainly not a new fashion. However, it’s still stylish for fall 2013. For this season, try a print like this navy one from Anthropologie. Peplum tops look nice paired with some tailored shorts, skinny pants or a pencil skirt. You can also wear a peplum skirt with a fitted shirt (tucked in) and a thin belt. Gray According to Harper’s Baazar, New York fall fashion week 2013 featured gray as the “new neutral.” Thus, rather than grabbing black leggings and tanks, I’ll think I will go for gray this year. Charcoal grey is slightly softer than black and a welcome change. Gray trousers, a blazer or a cardigan and some gray velvet ballet flats are a few good pieces to have in your fall wardrobe. Color block The colorblock trend is great for those who want a little more color in their lives. I love how I can wear a lighter color on top and a darker color around the waist. It’s very slimming. This colorblock shift from Anthropologie is perfect. I’m also going to pick up some basic tees with bright colorblocking on the body or arms to add more color to my wardrobe. Dropwaist Dress The dropwaist dress was a spring
2013 trend that has been carried into the fall. Personally, I love drop waist dresses because it can conceal a little bit of extra in the stomach. At the same time, it can show off tan summer legs. For cooler days, it can be paired with tights and some ankle boots. For fall, try a long sleeved version in a fun print like this one from Dolce Vita. I can’t wait to go shopping for some of these fall fashion essentials.

I-5 Upgrade Plans In South O.C. Ready For Review Comments are now being accepted on the environmental documents and a public hearing is slated for Sept. 25 ORANGE – Residents, commuters and others interested in traffic in south Orange County are invited to review and comment on plans to upgrade the San Diego Freeway (I-5) between the San Joaquin Hills Toll Road (SR-73) and El Toro Road. Caltrans, in partnership with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), released a report Friday that assesses how the proposed project will affect the environment. Called the initial study / environmental assessment, the report shows the project will not have significant negative effects on the quality of the environment. The report is available for review and comment at various Orange County Public Library branches in south Orange County and online at www. dot.ca.gov/dist12/files/5Widening. A public hearing for the community to review, ask questions and provide comments on the project is planned from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday Sept. 25 at the Norman P. Murray Community and Senior Center at 24932 Veterans Way in Mission Viejo.
The proposed project would cost approximately $500 million, funded through Measure M, Orange County’s half-cent sales tax for transportation improvements, as well as federal dollars. The proposed improvements
will increase capacity and improve operations on I-5 and include reconstructing interchanges that will enhance traffic flow La Paz Road and Avery Parkway. Comments on the environmental report may be submitted by mail to
Gabriela Jauregui, Caltrans District 12 at 3347 Michelson Dr., Suite 100, Irvine CA, 92612-8894 or by e-mail at D12.5Widening@dot.ca.gov For more information, visit www. octa.net/I5eltoro.
COYOTE PREVENTION MEASURES FOR CITIZENS Easy ways to discourage coyotes in your neighborhood Due to an increase in calls by local residents concerning coyote sightings, the San Clemente-Dana Point Animal Shelter would like to remind residents of some key prevention measures. Coyotes can be found in any open space, parks, neighborhoods and even commercial areas. As residents and their pets spend more time outdoors, the possibility of a coyote encounter increases. To allow coyotes to remain wild while keeping yourself and pets safe, please try to follow these pointers: • Never feed coyotes. It is illegal to feed coyotes in most places. Feeding endangers your family and neighbors as it lures coyotes into neighborhoods. • Keep unattended cats and dogs indoors or in completely enclosed runs, especially at night, and do not assume that a fence will keep a coyote out of your backyard. • Accompany your leashed pet outside. Make sure you turn on lights if it is dark to check your backyard for Page 6
unexpected wildlife. • Keep dogs on short leashes while walking outside; the Division of Wildlife recommends a leash no longer than 6 feet, which is also required by the San Clemente and Dana Point City ordinances., • Leave noisemakers on hand to scare away coyotes, such as whistles and horns. Motion activated sprinklers will also deter any wildlife from entering your yard. • Don’t run away or turn your back on a coyote. • Do not allow a coyote to get in between you and your pet or child. Keep children close to you. • Yell, clap hands, blow a whistle and try to make yourself look larger if you have a close encounter with a coyote. Make a mental note of where and when you have encountered a coyote. Coyotes often follow routines. Try avoiding this area in the future if the encounter was negative. Habituated coyotes can sometimes be a neighborhood issue. Make sure

attractants such as fallen fruit, pet food left outside, dirty barbecue grills, and unsecured trash are removed so that negative coyote interactions are minimized. Always make sure no one is intentionally feeding coyotes. Although sometimes thought of as a nuisance, coyotes play a vital role
in our ecosystem, helping to keep the rodent populations under control. For more information, please visit the following websites: www.dfg. ca.gov or www.keepmewild.org or www.humanesociety.org/animals/ coyotes/tips/hazing_guidelines.html.

Potted Potter At The Irvine Barclay Theatre Irvine Barclay Theatre today announced an engagement of Potted Potter, the unauthorized Harry Experience, a parody by Dan and Jeff, for four performances only, Thursday, November 14-Saturday, November 16, 2013. Written and performed by two-time Olivier Award-nominated actors Daniel Clarkson and Jefferson Turner, Potted Potter is perfect for ages six to Dumbledore (who is very old indeed). This engagement is the show’s Southern California premiere. Potted Potter is presented by Irvine Barclay Theatre and is produced by Starvox Entertainment and Marketing. Playing to sold-out houses all over the world, the Olivier Awardnominated Potted Potter takes on the ultimate challenge of condensing all seven Harry Potter books (and a game of Quidditch with the audience) into seventy fun-filled minutes. Even if you don’t know the difference between a Horcrux and a Hufflepuff, the silly magic of Potted Potter will have you in its spell. Audience members are invited to come early. Doors will open an hour before each show with a variety of pre-show activities and special Potter menu items at the concessions bar. Potted Potter was first created as a five minute long, two-man show
to entertain bookstore customers waiting in line to purchase the sixth book in the series and was then a comic summary of the first five books. Since then, the piece has been expanded and performed by Children’s BBC host team Clarkson and Turner literally thousands of times – at the Edinburgh Festival, in the West End, off Broadway and across America to much acclaim. A critic’s Pick by the New York Times, New York Magazine, and Time Out London, Potted Potter won

the prestigious 2012 Olivier Award nomination for Best Entertainment & Family Show. The New York Times said, “The flavor is Monty Python meets vaudeville…Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Turner do indeed tell an abbreviated, ridiculous version of the Boy Who Lived… You don’t need to know all the nuances of Hogwarts to enjoy the jokes... Besides, if you miss something, another laugh will be along shortly…The duo cast the perfect spell over the audience.”
Irvine Barclay’s President Doug Rankin said, “The Barclay is thrilled to be able to bring Potted Potter to southern California for the area premiere. I’m a big fan of the books, and now I’m a fan of Dan and Jeff and their fresh, fun take on the Harry Potter lore.” Tickets (Adults $45.00; Children $35.00) can be purchased at the Irvine Barclay Theatre, 4242 Campus Drive, Irvine CA, online at www.thebarclay. org, or by calling 949.854.4646.

Introducing Five Totally Wearable Trends for Fall Fashion 2013 By Laurie Jo Miller Farr Fashion designers, buyers, and store window dressers are well into their preparations for autumn 2013. Sometimes called pre-fall fashion, let’s have a look at five of the runway’s most practical, wearable trends for the season ahead. Mad for plaid The trend of stripes and polka dots that dominated the runways for spring and summer is being replaced by mad for plaid. European designers such as Stella McCartney, Dries Van Noten, and Chanel are leading the way on this one, so don’t be surprised to see plaid called tartan. Work it and mix it in skirts, jackets, coats, blouses, scarves. It’s an easy trend to wear if you keep the pattern small scale and the fabric lightweight to avoid the lumberjack look. Menswear classics The menswear trend for women is connected to plaids through fabric patterns like a Prince of Wales check, sometimes called glen plaid or houndstooth. Made popular by the terribly fashion-conscious Duke of Windsor in the ‘30s when his title
was Prince of Wales, it’s a fashion staple that whispers good taste. Not so quiet, expect to see Banana Republic adding a flash of girly pink to that classic grey check. From a preppy Tommy Hilfiger to a hip Rag & Bone, the memo on houndstooth has been received. Pop on a peplum Create instant curves for a boyish figure, and cinch in the waist on a dress or jacket. It’s not for everyone, but it is a favorite look for Gwyneth Paltrow, Victoria Beckham, and Kate Middleton. Jason Wu even pulls off a sweet peplum on trousers for evening wear. Ladylike leather Look for leather pieces, worn more loosely than you’ve seen in the past, and made affordable, too. Spend less than $200 for a leather motorcycle jacket at Old Navy or a faux leather top from Topshop for $76. Elizabeth and James is showing leather overalls, and even at $1,295 Top it off they’ve been popular at Saks Fifth Do you love hats? You’re in style Avenue online. If you’re feeling shy and you’re in luck. From beanies to about head-to-toe leather, go for a baseball caps to French berets, put skirt with leather piping accents. a lid on it to look smack up to date
this autumn. Menswear fedoras? Definitely yes. Go for anything smallish and understated atop the head. (Sorry, Princess Beatrice.) Happy shopping!

You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 760-438-1914 during business hours for information regarding the trustee’s sale. Recorded questions left by voice mail will be returned the next business day. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Dated: September 4, 2013 FEIST, VETTER, KNAUF AND LOY, APC, as Trustee By: Lisa M.

Becoming a Fashion Designer: Choosing Your Apparel Niche
By ShawnTe Pierce I have read quite a few articles on people toting DIY fashion advice, “Starting your Own Fashion Business,” creating your own designs, etc and they offer high level advice, but where is the meat? By meat I am referring to critical knowledge that serious fashion designers possess. For the purpose of this article, we will go over the different types of designers and you can decide where you fit in. What Style(s) of Clothing are You Interested in? There are three major styles of clothing to design for - Children’s Wear, Menswear, and Women’s Wear. Each of these three styles have sub-styles within them based upon gender for children’s wear and age and size groupings primarily for the Men’s and Women’s fashions. Knowing which one you want to design for will help you focus more clearly on the different aspects of each style. Children’s Wear Clothing for children may seem very simple at first but different rules and techniques come into play. One of the most overlooked aspects of designing for children is age appropriateness. You must understand that you are designing for children and the style has to be appropriate. I often see many children’s clothing as just a miniature version of their adult counterparts. Sometimes this is ok, Page 18
however you must also maintain a socially conscious outlook when designing for children. Do you design a pair of Speedos or a string bikini for toddlers and ages 6 thru 12? Menswear Menswear requires knowing the basic silhouette of a man. Also menswear tends to be more functional. For example, men’s pants and jackets have functional pockets. The reason for this is because men use wallets, so pockets that are deep enough to hold and hide the wallet from sight are needed. Men’s clothing is traditionally more tailored than women’s clothing. These are some aspects to consider for those wishing to design for this style of clothing. Women’s Wear This style of clothing has the most variety and potential for new ideas, which is why it is also the most popular style to design for. Pretty much anything goes in this style of clothing. Only a few rules maintain over the course of women’s fashion, some are as follows: 1. Women’s fashions close, right over left. 2. 4 critical measurements taken: bust, waist, hip, and inseam
Once you know which type of clothing you want to design in, what role or type of designer are going to be? If you are hands on then you are simply a fashion designer meaning you are in charge and know how to execute every step in the design process. However, if you are only good at coming up with the concept, illustrating it, and picking out fabric, then maybe a role as concept designer or head designer is where your focus should lay. If you are not so good with artistically rendering the concept but are good with technically rendering it, know how the pieces of the design should be cut, laid out, and sewn, then a career as a technical designer may right up your alley. What Knowledge is Critical for a Career in Fashion Design? The following list begins with what I believe are the critical “must knows” of fashion design followed by the optional but important “should knows”: 1. Must know the silhouette of your niche - meaning you must know the form of either a child’s, man’s or woman’s body 2. Must know fabric - you need to know how fabric works and responds in relation to your design 3. Always have to account for 3. Must know rendering - in order stress points such as in the bust and for you or anyone else to be able to hip areas follow your concept, you must render What Type of Designer Do You it clearly enough for someone to Wish to Become? either work directly from it to create

the finished product or be able to render a technical drawing from it. 4. Should know how to make a flat or technical drawing of your design. 5. Should know how to drape and/ or create a hand drawn flat of your design in order make a pattern for assembly. 6. Should be able to transfer pattern onto fabric and cut it out. 7. Should know the order by which each piece of the pattern is to be assembled. 8. Should know how to sew. Both machine and hand sewing These eight skills can be obtained via college courses, on the job experience, or learning on your own with the aid of textbooks and mentoring. Unless you work for a design company already and are obtaining on the job experience, it is almost impossible nowadays to get any level of design job without a college degree in a design related course of study. This article is by no means a complete overview of a career in fashion design. However, the intent is to lead those seriously considering a career in fashion in the right direction. For a list of schools that offer fashion design programs visit FashionSchools.com or for a complete list of every accredited university that has a fashion program you can order a directory from the National Association of Schools of Art and Design for a fee.
