Natasha Poly Vogue China Collections F/W 2011

I love this.

Objects Of Desire

Beautiful Natasha Poly works her magic for Vogue China Collection Fall Winter 2011.

Makeup, hair and styling are perfection as she brings life to monochromatic clothes set against a non existent background, expertly lit and shot by Willy Vandeperre.

Straight up luxe, pure style.

Lara Stone is just so fabulously versatile!
Here she is with another completely different look. No fetish fashion this time, instead a nod to old Hollywood glamour. The best kind of glamour there is!

Fetish Fashion Lara Stone For Vogue Japan November 2011

I was actually researching naughty lingerie for a Christmas Gift Giving Ideas post when I found this one.
And its just far too good to wait for!
Lara Stone looking fierce and fabulous as she rocks the dominatrix vibe in the November issue of 
Vogue Japan.

Shot by the amazing Mario Sorrenti, Lara Stone works an icy cold and yet white hot stare in this photo tribute to fetish meeting fashion.

It would appear that the fashion accessory du jour would be the leather harness, shown here with flair and versatility.
For the girl with the leather harness on her wish list, hair and makeup are trending away from the predictable.
Go for a softer wave to the hair, and keep it looking touchable and glossy.
Minimize the brow, soften the eye (no fierce cat eyes or uber dark smokiness). Your mouth instead of the expected red or vermillion gloss should be a matte deep neutral, and your cheeks should be chiseled within an inch of your life.

Haha! Go girl!

Louis Vuitton Spring 2012 Paris Fashion Week

Oh and I'm just dying over this one!
Paris Fashion Week just does it so exquisitely.

The rumor mill has been buzzing that Marc Jacobs is about to leave Louis Vuitton to take over Galliano's place at Dior in the next few weeks.
That being said this may well have been his final curtain call at Louis Vuitton, and what a way to go!!

One of the most spectacular, beautiful, awe inspiring productions and collections ever. Jared Michael Lowe of the Lowefactor called the Louis Vuitton Spring Summer 2012 Collection "nothing short of epic luxury"

Fashionistas and lovers of all things fabulous absolutely must watch the video of the show...



The collection is beautiful, the make up is beautiful, the hair is beautiful.

Look for newlywed Kate Moss at the end, looking completely divine.
Perfection.
