End of January
It's been really cold again over the last few days, but bright sunny also. The frost and sun make for beautiful pictures.. I hope everyone's having a lovely weekend!

Christian Lacroix Evening Dress (1996)
I found some pics of an exhibition I visited at the V&A museum (in London) last year and I remembered how impressed I was by this Christian Lacroix evening dress from 1996. The stunning colours first caught my eye and then the floral print, the embroidered bodice and all the beautiful detailing were what made me fall in love with it..

Voici Paris! Haute Couture
Some impressions of the "Voici Paris! Haute Couture" exhibition I visited in Den Haag in March last year. I used a normal camera to take photos, so the quality isn't too great, but you get the idea :) The entire exhibition was amazing and I spent hours looking at all the pieces (Dior, Armani Privé, Elie Saab, Jean Paul Gaultier and so on). I had of course fallen in love with Diane Kruger's Golden Globes gown by Christian Lacroix just a few weeks before, so seeing this one up close was so exciting for me. As was watching all the amazing detailing on the Chanel pieces from the Haute Couture Spring 2009 collection, which you can see in the video below.

Victoria Beckham Pregnant With 4th Child
Just read the news that David and Victoria Beckham are expecting their 4th child this Summer. Congratulations to them! And (like many others, including Victoria herself, I'm sure) I can't help but think how fabulous it would be if this time Victoria had a baby girl. Not that their three boys Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz aren't adorable of course, but just IMAGINE this mini Victoria.. :)
Speaking of Victoria, have you seen her latest Vogue UK cover? (Click here to see it!) It's pretty amazing, I think! We don't get to see that soft look on her that often, but I really like it.
