Balmail Fall/Winter 2008-2009

I’ve been a Balmain fan for quite some time – both the men’s and the women lines. There was actually a time in which my boyfriend wasn’t allowed to get any pair of shoes that wasn’t Balmain, simply because I thought they were purr-fect.
Anyway, I’ve grown up (somewhat), but my love for Balmain has [...]

Doo.Ri Fall/Winter 2008.2009

Doori Chung started her own label, Doo.Ri, from the basement of her parents business — and she’s evolved into an excellent fashion designer, bringing out this beautiful Fall/Winter collection which at this point is sitting on top of my favorites list for the season…
I’m planning an NYC-trip, and I’m seriously contemplating scheduling Barneys in to [...]

Just Cavalli Pre-Fall 2008

Just Cavalli has just shown off their Pre-fall 2008 looks and they look classic — but extremely convincing. Loads of tailored silhouettes, loads of variety, and all super-feminine with a touch of “je m’en fou”-boyishness. The menswear focus makes this collection really classy and feminine (not girly, that is). ;)
Silk summerdresses, leather-look suits. I love [...]

Badgley Mischka Pre-Fall 2008 Sneak Peek

It’s another sneak peek of the new Fall/Winter 2008 looks that we can expect. I love the sneak peeks! This one by Badgley Mischka is gorgeous. It had beautiful animal prints, taffetas, and chiffons and the dresses are exquisite. I love the long red gown, very sexy. The prints are beautiful as well, and the [...]

Jenny Packham Spring/Summer 2008

With celebrities like Eva Longoria and Sarah Jessica Parker adoring this line, it seems like she had a lot of pressure in coming up with beautiful and wearable pieces, but I think that Jenny Packham did a beautiful job. If love the use of chiffon, I think that material just screams feminine. I also think [...]

Never Underestimate the Power of a Little Black Dress

It was more than 80 years ago that Coco Chanel brought us the fabulous and ever necessary little black dress. It was a simply designed, very unadorned dress that has since become a staple in every woman’s wardrobe. With the holiday season in full swing it is very important that we remember our little black [...]

Jayson Brundson Spring/Summer 2008

This collection by Australian designer Jayson Brundson is stunning. All the designs are so feminine and beautiful, and nothing overdone, just beautiful fabrics, graphics, and designs. His label is inspired by the looks and lives of iconic women, and it really shows in his work. These dresses are absolutely beautiful, and again, they are so [...]

Marchesa Spring/Summer 2008 New York

I love this collection from Marchesa. The gowns are simple yet elegant, and they really accent femininity. From the beautiful colors to the wonderfully full skirts and bustles of layers, these designs are absolutely breathtaking. Even with the layers and the adornments, these dresses are still very simply elegant, not at all overdone or too, [...]

Oscar De La Renta Pre-Fall 2008

Okay, I just found these pictures of Oscar’s Pre-Fall 2008 collection, and so far it looks very promising. I can’t believe that it’s already time for Pre-Fall, but I’m glad that we get a sneak peek of the upcoming fashions. The colors are beautiful, and I’m not all that surprised that red is a dominant [...]
