FF ♥ CARVEN IS IN IT TO WIN IT

So many of these dresses from the CARVEN FALL WINTER 2012/2013 COLLECTION can be worn in so many ways by so many different types of women. And I love that. But I love the way the models are styled for this show, too. Carven is making a big statement every time a new season comes around...it's like the dark horse of labels...before you know it, it'll be king. Just watch and see. (I also love the pairing of these babydolls with the Mary Janes.)♡

perfect model perfect outfit perfect styling

these remind me so much of the philo chloé days...which is why i think they will sell well.

i reallllly love this dress, too...these pieces with what looks like images from the garden of earthly delights!

GF ♥ NINA RICCI FALL WINTER 2012/13

I heart Peter Copping and the way he makes clothes. So many of these pieces from the NINA RICCI FALL WINTER 2012/13 COLLECTION look straight out of Madame Ricci's closet...some of the black pieces remind me of the gorgeous bouclé suit-dress (super vintage) that was stolen by a stylist from me. I really miss that piece. And it was tiny. :( I also love the styling of the disheveled hair and day-after makeup. GOR-geous.♡

i love the extra long sleeves...i think it makes it even more girl-ish.

so french

the same shape as the vintage piece i owned that was stolen. sigh.

love love love

i don't see anyone wearing this...but i do love all the very lingerie pieces. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT

TS ♥ LET THEM WEAR CAKE @ D&G

gorgeous shot

This show was really too gorgeous to pop one or two photos in a post....actually there have been a few shows in the past couple of days that have wowed me and I'll do some longer post and multiple posts on those in the next couple of days. The Dolce and Gabbana Fall Winter 2012/13 show had too many details that I loved plus too many pieces I loved plus the beauty and the shoes were amazing. I mean, can you imagine the showroom with all of these samples in there?? But one piece I loved and wished there were more images of were these very Marie Antoinette (à la Sofia Coppola's film) shoes...I would kill to own these. So so gorgeous. I'm sorry, but when I see shoes like this (and some others in some other shows) I just don't think Louboutin is killing it anymore. Just saying...♡

amazing. i'll do a post on the dark side of this collection soon. but i wanted to focus on the lighter cake-y side here.

what a gorgeous look. i'm so happy they ditched the sexy bustier madonna thing for a second.

hello, gorgeous. i will own a pair of these. i think this is my favorite color combo. magnolia cupcake bakery in nyc makes cupcakes frosted exactly (well, close) like this with these colors.

TS ♥ JIL SANDER FALL 2012 TECH HEEL

The Jil Sander Fall Winter 2012/13 collection was just amazing...as I've said before. But one of the main things I loved about it (or, rather, one of the dozens of things I loved about it) were the shoes and I immediately made a note to try to land a pair as I think they'll be really sought after and collected once they hit the market. I think they look like the inside of a computer...or your TV or something which is a great juxtaposition for the soft, sweet classic silhouettes of the show. One thing I thought was very strange, though, in seeking out these photos...my friend Adele Mildred (who I mentioned in a previous post as being the one who drew my logo girl as well as being the head of atelier at Stephen Jones/responsible for the hats at the Marc Jacobs show) told me they also did the berets with the veils at Jil Sander. I wanted to include one photo at least....but couldn't find a good one. Strange. She's doing Galliano next and then Louis Vuitton! OK....now back to the shoes! I don't know how much I LOVE a super pointy toe...I have a Louis Vuitton pair that I never wear because of this fact. But it seems to work well here. And I LOVE the colors!♡
