StyleShot: David Beckham

March 9, 2010

Poster boy for how to stay warm, and look stylish and masculine at the same time. How I love the Beckhams. They just keep getting better and better, don’t they?

THAT dress…

March 9, 2010

I know the Oscars were yesterday and the entire world is ruminating about whose dresses rocked (Demi Moore, Sandra Bullock, Helen Mirren, and Kristen Stewart), and whose did not (SJP, Charlize, J.Lo).  I actually have another dress on the brain at the moment, well…I did until I saw Katy Perry lookin’ smokin’ in this Zuhair Murad number. Perhaps a wee too much cleavage, but with a body like that in a dress like that, it passes. Dang! No wonder why Russ is crazy in love.

But back to that other dress I was talking about. Worn by the object of affection of another brother who’s crazy-in-love. How about $45,000 worth of Monique Lhuillier wedding frockery worn by Bachelor wifey Molly Malaney? I can’t help it…it’s frou frou, but with that amazing orchid bouquet (that cleverly echoes the feeling of the dress), and a boatload of diamonds, it is heavenly.

New in my fashion vocabulary is Vionnet. Somehow, prior to the fall 2010 collection, this label never really caught my eye. Maybe that’s because the line was revived in 2007, then promptly went on hiatus in 2008 and 2009.

I suppose the vacay worked well for Vionnet, because for fall 2010, Vionnet is back—and it appears as though Rodolfo Paglialunga, designer for the house, is finally hitting his stride. This fall, how I would love to be enveloped in Vionnet, a collection that is for the vixen, for the vamp, and perhaps more than any other, perfectly fitting for a V like me.

The Worst of Paris, Fall 2010

March 5, 2010

I’m so disappointed in the majority of the Paris fall 2010 fashion shows. Of course the major players of Paris fashion haven’t shown yet, so there is still hope. But aside from a couple pieces here and there, it’s been one big freakshow, and I can’t imagine that there’d be much commercial marketability for looks [...]

Return to pretty…please!

March 4, 2010

If you’re a long-time reader of my blog, you know that recently, I’ve been very focused on the importance of looking your very best, whether you’re single, in a relationship, a mom, or childless. This is something I believe so strongly in that I never set foot in the gym without at least a coat [...]

DDivine Dsquared²

March 2, 2010

Dsquared². Fall 2010. Morticia meets Catwoman meets Dominatrix. Vogue slammed the collection, and while it has limited marketability, I rather liked it (minus the red latex and vein-printed shirts). Maybe cause it spoke to my inner goth girl. It is very severe and very subversive, but I’d totally rock these looks in a hearbeat.

Be a slouch. The good kind.

March 1, 2010

Three fall 2010 fashion weeks are now under our belts, and this is the trend I’ve observed that I love most: the heeled slouch boot. Worn (preferably) with a mini and bare legs. Several designers shod their models in slouch boots of all materials and shaft heights, and while the bootie and OTK trends are [...]

BCBG Spring 2010 Accessories Campaign

February 28, 2010

Love.
Might the Azria clan have been subliminally influenced by Lagerfeld’s hayride for Chanel Spring 2010 (shows were last fall, remember?)? Guess it doesn’t really matter because I love this campaign regardless. BCBG spends a fortune generating lookbooks and catalogs not just for its favorite clients, but all of them. Available in-store for the taking.
I love [...]

D&G Fall 2010

February 27, 2010

I apologize for the recent proliferation of fashion show commentary on my blog. But it is fashion month…first NY, then London, then Milan, then Paris. I love fashion weeks because there is so much inspiration, on the street and the runway. Attendees are just as interesting to watch as the shows.
As you have surmised, fashion [...]
