PHOTO OF THE DAY : NATALIA VODIANOVA


Like this shot of Natalia for the Etam Campaign, the background is more than the average solid grey and contrasts really well with the pixel colours.

RUNWAY TOP 6 : MATTHEW WILLIAMSON FALL 2011

Matthew Williamson's signature boho chic aesthetic wasn't missing on this years fall runway, it just bought some tuff luxe friends (and then some). Although not getting rave reviews, I enojoyed the bold mixing of prints, feathers, leather, fabrics, colours and fringes...normally too much for one collection I think he did really well in blending all the elements and maintaing a cohesive look.
Inspired by a Russian artist and Mongolian culture, it was at least a good deal more bright and upbeat than alot of the other showings...and I even liked the shoes and sock look for once, how bout you?

LUST HAVE TRENDS : THROUGH THE ROUND LOOKING GLASS

LUST HAVE MINI TREND : ROUND GLASSES

Is this the next big thing in eyewear? Have the aviators and Raybans been dethroned? More likely just pushed to the side.. also around in 2009, this latest trend was seen on runways and celebrities alike this season. It may make you think of Lennon and Ozzie Ozbourne but perhaps this looks reinvention is another tip of the hat to Lady GaGa's popular influence?

RUNWAY TOP 6 : YEOJIN BAE 2011

Ok - I officially want to either drink whatever fashion cool-aide Yeojin has been drinking or convince her to let me own every piece she ever designed. I absolutely love her style...this is exactly my aesthetic...refined luxury that goes from day to night, a hint of sexy with prints, colours and cuts that are modern and on trend while still being soaked with classism.
This top 6 (while not exactly runway) is from her new collection and is available online here

love the length and fit of this skirt
love this length too

I WANT IT NOW : YEOJIN BAE SEQUIN LOLA DRESS

I am in fashion love with this dress by (Korean born) Australian designer Yeojin Bae.
Pity I just missed putting it on my Birthday and Valentines day list ( har har) Available online for $1,590....sigh, so sparkly

PHOTO OF THE DAY : ANIMAL INSTINCT

PHOTO OF THE DAY : HAPPY VALENTINES!

Hope you all had someone to share a little love with today (romantic or otherwise!)

LUST HAVE TREND : LIP SERVICE

LUST HAVE MINI TREND : STATEMENT LIPS

This is one trend you can't miss! Its been warming up for a while now but this season it was splahed all over the runways. In particular bold shades of orange, red, berry, coral and shocking pink were most popular. Definitely one to try!Make it bold, make it bright, just make it noticeable!

Try Avon's inexpensive Ultra Rich colour lipsticks.
