Daywear, but just that little less casual. I die for that leather dress!

I love the combination of fitted jeans and patent leather flats. All black = très Parisienne.

Black leather

LOVE: black leather for some tough girl chique.
From dresses to shorts, skirts, jackets and tops: super expensive but worth the investment I think!

Although it's huge this fall, I'm not feeling the Aviator trend. This look though, works. I love the combination of the thigh high boots with the lace dress.

Beauty FW10

My favorite (wearable) fall beauty look: Versace.
Loose waves curling in the ends, softred lips and a black line on the upper lid.
Very flattering!

Stella

I'd buy her entire collection in a second if I had the money.

Fall obsessions

I have never been obsessing about Fall this soon in the year! It's still July, normally it's around September when I start craving. Pieces that already stole my heart:

Christopher Kane leather skirt €1622,22

YSL calfhair Tributes €1026,80
DKNY embellished tshirt dress €270
La Petite S***** satin jacket €870
Theory leather shorts €290
Mawi drop earrings €267,33

Dolce & Gabbana Fall/Winter 2010

SENSATIONAL.

Those jackets.

Moving, touching, the essence of fashion.

H&M Fall 2010

With brands like H&M an Zara, the line between inspiration and stealing is always rather vague. Again dancing on the cord, H&M is soon launcing its Fall collection (who, Celine?). Anyways, I hope that dress comes in black!

New Fall looks

Carven dress
Balmain bag
Alexander McQueen boots

Crumpet cashmere jumpsuit
Burberry cardigan
Marc Jacobs flats
Alexander Wang bag

I love a jumpsuit for fall in a cold-proof fabric!

All three looked picture perfect, although Blake and Leighton aren't exactly season-coordinated :) looks a bit weird

I hate to be posting all this winter stuff when temperatures are around 25 degrees outside, but I can't help myself, it's too pretty. The things I love about summer are definitely the flowy fabrics and healthy sunkissed skin, but what is amazing about winter really is the endless layering possibilties...

Louis Vuitton FW10 ad campaign

Although I loved the concept of the return to the big busts, I wasn't really feeling the Louis Vuitton fashion show. But that is now totally compensated by the ad campaign. How GORGEOUS! Steven Meisel shot models Christy Turlington, Natalia Vordinova and Karen Elson in an oldfashioned Hollywood dressing room and created perfect fifties flair. How gorgeous. I also find the bags remarkable, that are all beautiful reinventions of Vuitton's favorite classics. Reinventing, says Marc Jacobs, is the house's strength. I agree.

The Gucci Effect

I have never been a Gucci fan, but I really like Frida Giannini's fall 2010 collection. The polished sexy glamour that is so typical for the house of Gucci (and that I don't care for too much) still shone through, but was softened by actual classic, sophisticated pieces and fabrics, like the camel. Net-a-porter (who will for the first time carry Gucci) did of course a lovely photoshoot, picking out the collection's best features.
