2010 Fall Fashion Trends
Get ready for the new fall fashion trends by dragging out your clothes from decades gone past. Here is what those inside the fashion industry are saying about the upcoming clothes season.

Learning About Scottish Wool
Wool is a natural fabric made from the fleece of animals; mainly sheep. The term "wool" is used to describe the fibrous protein that is derived from the follicles of sheep. There are many types of wool, and other than the sheep, they are also derived from other animals of the Caprinae family. They are animals such as goats that produce cashmere and mohair, vicuna and alpaca from camels and angora from rabbits. Unlike hair and fur, it grows in staples, is crimped and elastic. If you take a closer look at wool fibers using a microscope, you will see that they have distinct characteristics. One example is its minute scales that play a big role to its resistance to water or moisture, even stains, mildew and mold. This is mostly because of the waxy coating called lanolin. The coarse grades accounts for the scratchiness that one feels against the skin.
