OK so I lied when I said I'm going to be updating more often. School has started and I also had to create another blog for my communications class. But trust me...all the fashion is still here folks. Anyways...MTV's "reality" show the City premiered this and since the beginning of season 1 of the show I have always admired cast member/New York socialite Olivia Palermo's style. She is the true definition of New York chic not to mention she has model good looks to go with it. *insert jealousy* But she is DEFINITELY someone who you guys would want to watch out for as far as a GREAT and unique sense of style. Here are some pics below of Olivia at events all around town. Definitely a style to watch............[all pics courtesy of google images]
Zoe Saldana [actress from the recent Star-Trek movie] did a photo spread in Vanity Fair recently and she looks verrry faaancy. It's an old-Hollywood Harlem Nights types of theme and the fashion is definitely on point! Doesn't it look like everyone including Zoe look like they could of jumped out of the American Gangster movie? Check em out! Photos courtesy of theybf.com
Ahhh....who else would hold a fashion show with models walking down a boardwalk runway on the beautiful Venice Beach....and NO not Venice Beach, CA but LIDO BEACH in Venice, Italy?! None other than KARL LARGERFELD for Chanel's Cruise 2009/10 Ready-to-Wear fashion show. The beach, the models, and sunset all complemented each other perfectly! Whoever predicted the weather forecast for that day was on point! The collection was mostly solid black, white, navy with some nautical insipired looks with some looks made of silk embroidered with the infamous Chanel logo all over. Here are just a few of my favorite. You can check out the rest at nymag.com [All pics courtesy of nymag.com as well]
And if I am not mistaken the model pictured above is Karl Lagerfeld's new muse and his name is Baptiste Gianconi...sounds pretty hot to me....sounds like some Church too =D
I forgot to post these pics accompanying the Jean Paul Gaultier post since some of his looks I mentioned reminds me of the type of 'fashion' we might see in Burton's upcoming version of Alice in Wonderland. The the pics are creepy, but fascinating...like some weird are you can't take your eyes off lol. BIG fan of Tim Burton's movies...can't wait for the movie! =)
Here is Rihanna at the premiere in an Alexander McQueen pre-fall jumpsuit decked out in pearls, lacey finger gloves, and Maison Martin Margiela black boots. Her hair along with the black outfit and pearls gives off that modern day Cruella Devile (sp?) meets Co-Co Chanel. Make-up is flawless. She looks regal yet very rock-n-roll!

PARIS FASHION WEEK IS HERE.....JEAN-PAUL GAUTIER FALL 09
Jean Paul Gautier has taken us back to the Madonna days....the days with her performing on stage with her infamous cone-shaped corsets...his collection was a mix of the Queen of pop era with a little bit of Hollywood glam thrown in it. I won't be surprised if you see Lady Gaga in one of these outfits. Also I included a pic of Cameron Diaz at the bottom covering V Magazine. Its different, but its a good look on her! I meant to post it earlier, but hey I killed two birds with one stone today. Hopefully, I can update more often since Paris Fashion Week kicked off and I'll be in the studios all next week with my laptop in front of me the whole time =D [All pics courtesy of NYMAG.com]
This reminds of me of something that will be in Tim Burton's upcoming "Alice in Wonderland" movie
YES...I am back. I know it has been a long hiatus, BUT I mean fashion week is long gone! so there haven't been a lot of updated looks or shows anyways! I apologize, but as a treat here is DVF'S Cruise 09 Collection: Her Name is Rio....lots of colors as usual, the bow head pieces adds a little girly touch to the outfits and the bathing suits are my favorite! Usual floral, Polk-dot, electric rays inspired all the way! All pics courtesy of DVF's FB page!
