Thierry Mugler A/W 2012 Paris Fashion Week

Oh. Hell.Yeah.

How crazy cool is this??

I so enjoy a good winter white...

Thierry Mugler Autumn/Winter 2012

was all about extreme sculpture, laser cuts,

exaggerated shoulders and fringed skirts. 

The more extreme pieces were offset 

by softer, more demure

belted coats and body loving dresses.

Can't you see Rooney in this??

Red is so expressive.

 

It says you've arrived.

Fearlessly.

It says: I'm standing up - count me. 

Red doesn't apologize.

Red breathes confidence.

Red doesn't just strut into a room - it owns it.

The New 50's, Vogue China March 2012

So.

I had planned on banging out some killer behind the scenes blogs from the Oscars, but time and uploading got out from under me.

Work got in the way of dissecting 

any more fashion week goings on,

however, 

Vogue China got me.

They way it always does.

Could you not just die over this editorial???

I could.

Because I'm Addicted, Marni For H&M

Another Saturday, another blog I adore.

While I'm in LA for the Oscars

I'm re-posting from one of my fave blogs

Because I'm Addicted.

In this post Geri show the complete Marni for H&M

collection.

Possibly my favorite of all the designer for high street lines so far. 

The collection is really fabulous, and if you scroll all the way to the bottom 

you'll see that you can win some of the pieces.

Enjoy...

marni for h&m (the complete collection)!

Nothing over $129 (accessories are $19.95). The quality is insane (touched the entire collection with my very own paws). The wood platforms are a MUST. Out March 8.

Do you die or do you die?

p.s. i'm giving away 2 pieces of the collection so stay tuned!

p.s.s. i'm also on the grand jury for h&m's “what inspires you” instagram challenge in which the winner will receive garments from the marni at h&m collection. entering is easy:

1. take a photo of something that inspires you
2. upload the photo to instagram and include the hashtag #MarniatHM
3. get your friends to vote for your photo.

good luck!

Maurizio Pecoraro Autumn 2012 Milan Fashion Week

Color!

Beautiful, bold, bright color! 

And multiple layers of texture.

 

Maurizio Pecoraro Autumn 2012 

was deliciously vibrant and textured.

From perfectly belted trenches to separates

colors popped, hemlines rose a little,

and the overall effect was simple yet exciting.

Definitely on the most coveted list!
