Roaring 20's

John Galliano just blew my mind away and has left me overwhelmingly giddy with his Spring 2010 collection. The 1920's inspired collection had me grasping for air as each piece comes out of the runway. From the hair style and make up to the runway itself it is truly breath taking. The color that Galliano picked is deeper and richer than the one I saw from the other spring collections, he gave us a different view of spring. A darker, deeper, edgier, sexier, stronger woman in spring who still didn't forget that see through clothes is still a season must have. Bravo to Galliano!

P.S. - I have a forever Lola syndrome and I'll be rocking socks and heels oh so much from now on! And to view more pics from the collection go to style.com.

The Day Before

For weeks now I have been addicted to Sundance Channels' Full Frontal Fashion shows that featured fashion documentaries such as Lagerfeld Confidential and Marc Jacobs & Louis Vuitton. Documentaries that allowed an inside look on how fashion Gods work. But my favorite show is The Day Before. The Day Before is simply what it is, it's a chance to witness what goes on before the lights of the runway dims and the fashion show starts. It is a story of all the chaos and overwhelming adrenaline rush of the people who works behind the scenes. The genius conceptions of legendary designers to the hands of a perfect atelier to the runway is pleasing to watch. My favorite fashion God is probably Karl Lagerfeld and I'm sure you are not to deny that he is to you too! His sarcasm and tough view of the world may not be of realism but he definitely hits a nerve when he conveys his idea and why he does it. He is completely uninhibited and unfazed to what surrounds him but relates to it all at the same time. The clip below is from his Fendi Fall 2009 show. It is charming to see how much the Fendi staff adores Mr. Lagerfeld and how dedicated they are to the brand.
