Lanvin details

My favourite PFW collection for Fall 2011 so far is Lanvin. No surprise there, 'cause I'm a huge fan of Alber Elbaz and this latest collection is once again a delight. For this post I thought I'd focus on the details only and I've added style.com's video for you to see more from the show/collection. I LOVE the rose print dress I posted here in the middle and as usual the Lanvin accessories are just fabulous. That (rose) bracelet in particular is amazing ♥

Just 3 more days of Fashion Week left now and still quite a few collections I'm excited to see (Chloé, Chanel, Alexander McQueen, Valentino, Miu Miu..) I will, of course, post my favourite Paris FW looks again later this week!

MFW Fall 2011 runway looks that caught my eye

After New York and London, here are some random looks from Milan Fashion Week shows that caught my eye! I liked many looks from different collections, but it's Gucci that I fell in love with this season. The colourful sheer chiffon evening dresses are amazing and I dream dream dream of wearing the black/yellow dress myself (the one posted in the middle) - it's beautiful ♥

Givenchy Couture Spring 2011 & Cate Blanchett's Oscar dress

So the Oscars red carpet wasn't too impressive this year, but one actress stood out and that was, of course, Cate Blanchett. She once again blew me away looking absolutely stunning in a lilac Givenchy Couture gown, my favourite piece from this Spring 2011 collection (see Cate's red carpet look here). It reminded me that I still had a draft post with images from this collection and figured now would be a good time to publish it. You can watch a little interview with Cate (by Tim Gunn) at the Oscars red carpet in the video below (she's on right in the beginning of the video at 0:15) ♥

Happy Oscar Weekend!

I thought I'd kick off Oscar Weekend (yes, if Valentine can now be a weekend, so can the Oscars!) with some beautiful Oscars red carpet looks from past years. Cate Blanchett in Valentino at the 2005 Oscars has to be my all-time favourite, it was súch a fab dress and she looked absolutely divine ♥ You can watch a video of her winning the Best Supporting Actress award here, it's one of my favourite Oscars moments ever! Also, check out this lovely video of Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams on the 2006 Oscars red carpet below, it was the year Michelle wore that stunning vintage-inspired Vera Wang gown. I can't wait to see what she'll wear this Sunday :)

I'm planning on making some changes to this blog over the next few days, so I apologise in advance if anything seems off for a bit. Happy weekend everyone!

LFW Fall 2011 runway looks that caught my eye

These are some of the LFW Fall 2011 runway looks that stood out for me. I noticed LOTS of colour and some nice silky fabrics. Some of my fave collections this week were Erdem, Acne and Roksanda Ilincic, but Mary Katrantzou's collection was the one I was most impressed with, just like last season. The shapes of her designs and the prints are absolutely incredible :)
