  • Horsing around
    After a lengthy debate with myself I can safely say that I liked the couture presentation from Felipe Olivera Baptista for Spring Summer 2007. It wasn’t love at first sight but after careful inspection, I became fond of his concept. Maintaining the spirit of his past collections he kept his palette clean with black, white and the addition of metallic silver. The collection...

  • Goddess of the Dawn
    How much do I love the internet? Too much! Couture week officially began this morning with the presentation of Elie Saab’s collection “Goddess of the Dawn” and already some of the pictures from the show have surfaced.

  • Prada Turbans
    As well as the micro mini skirts, Prada’s glamorous silk satin turbans exploded on the runway at their show for Spring/Summer 07 and they are totally shining in the editorials. Looking a metallic dream Eva Mendes sports the green version inside Citizen K. and Jessica Stam keeps it hot in pink for Vogue. Personally I couldnt get away with either colours above so the...

  • Scarlett romances Vuitton
    (Image:fashionologie) After seeing just a snippet of the Vuitton Spring campaign featuring Scarlett Johansson I’ve been searching high and low for more pictures all day. So as you can imagine, when I found these from fashionologie I was ecstatic, especially as the campaign does not disappoint at all!

  • Gladiator-chic
    What stood out on the runway of Chanel’s cruise 2007 collection? The chic knee high Gladiator sandals, which easily took the spotlight away from the rest of the line. In beige, metallic and black, Lagerfeld presented an incredibly sexy sandal which will no doubt spark a trend for Spring/Summer 07. (image: Style.com) Let’s face it, like skinny jeans its unlikely the...
