Entitled New vintage, Chanel’s Couture F/W 2012-13 show certainly had a retro feel. The nostalgic collection included many soft pinks and greys in addition to some black and creams , very Jackie-O . The french fashion house was sure to include trademark boucle’ jackets and sparkly tweed pieces as well. Overall, I really loved the femininity of the collection. Here are some looks from the runway.

Christian Dior’s show has been the talk of Paris couture week. New designer Raf Simons’s debut at the fashion house came with speculation. Would he live up to the iconic brand’s name? The spectacular flower filled show took place at a grand residence near the Arc de tromphe. There was an overwhelming support from Simons’s peers. Fellow designers Diane von Furstenberg, Marc Jacobs, Donatella Versace, Alber Elbaz and Christopher Kane among others were in attendance proving that Simons is highly respected among fashions elite. After John Galliano’s sudden and quite scandalous departure from Dior early last year, all eyes were on Simons and today he proved he is ready…..he did not disappoint, he triumphed!
When I daydream…… If it’s not about furry friends, it’s usually about amazing things like this…………………
An emotional Donatella Versace took Atelier Versace couture back to the Ritz hotel in Paris today. This was the last place she saw her late brother Gianni. In 1997 Gianni staged his last show at the Ritz just two days before he was murdered on the steps outside of his Miami home. The highly anticipated F/W 2012-2013 collection remained true to the typical Versace aesthetic, silhouettes that celebrate the female form. Billowing chiffon, corseted bodices and metallics were bold, bright & beautiful.

Blake Lively is never short on style, she is hands down one my top 5 style crushes of all time! Her sense of style is amazing and all her own no stylist on her payroll. Lively’s stunning style has been front and center during the premiere/promotional tour for her upcoming film Savages. Here are my favorite looks so far and I look forward to what she will wear next.

Channeling old hollywood in a nude silk and tulle gown with intricate black beading by Zuhair Murad. I love how she let the dress do all the talking with minimal jewelry and no handbag. Crimson on the lip and nails looks perfect.

Clothing collector and heir to the beer company Daphne Guinness put 102 pieces from her wardrobe on the auction block to benefit the Isabella Blow Foundation in memory of her late fashion editor friend. The clothing auction at Christie’s London raised over $740,000 for the Foundation, a large portion of which came from Lady Gaga. The singer spent an estimated $132,000 on an Alexander McQueen dress from Guinness’s collection. Rumor has it that Gaga wasn’t even present at the event , the singer bid by phone from the U.S. and thanks to her generosity, the dress broke records to become the highest price paid for a McQueen dress at auction EVER. WOW!
The $132,000 ivory silk tulle empire line gown comes from McQueen’s Autumn Winter 2008 collection.
Emma Watson wore the gown in September 2008.
The eccentric entertainer has always fancied McQueen’s designs, below the singer wore a white McQueen avant-garde wedding gown in her bad romance video.
We have all been seeing quite a bit of Kate Upton lately. If you don’t know who she is, ask any male that you know. As much as we can appreciate her figure, it was certainly a pleasant surprise to see her in this month’s Vogue looking more like a high fashion model and less like a bikini clad sexpot! The editorial shows a different side of the beauty. Upton looks perfectly polished in head to toe designer duds from such labels as Proenza Schouler, Michael Kors and Altuzarra. Do we have a future supermodel on our hands? Hmmmm?
