Fall 2012: Black and White Prints

After a colorful summer with Pastels and Neon, I am excited to have discovered the black and white print on the Fall Runway shows. The black and white combo is elegant but each print will be girly, chic or sexy. So go get yourself some prints! :-)

Floral Obessesion

I am back on blogging. :-)

   

 My current obession this summer has been Floral Prints in vibrant summer colors. I love to wear them with colored skinny, jeans or a nice skirt. It gives your look an instant chicness.  


 Looking at the Runway shows for Fall 2012 I was happy to see more floral. They still seem be major! Flowers come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors, so no wonder they are still enhancing the femininity of various designs from dresses to skirts, blouses and pants. Dont be afraid to choose bold colors, like multicolored floral prints, tiny or supersized or go subtle with fall earth tone floral designs that subtly add more detail to your stylish fashion ensemble.

The Burberry Life 2012

While everyone else is still living in 2011, the Fashion World has already moved to 2012.
I am always curious to see what designers bring for their Resort Collections and so far I am fasinated by Burberry Prorsum Resort Collection 2012.

It is a great mix of Brights and Nude Tones and keeping its classic styles such high waist cuts and masculine trench coats. But nevertheless, showing new innovative colors ( how much do we love this Honey and Prussian Blue) and pattern, making us excited to see what Bailey will bring for Spring 2012.

Dior.

Amazing collection, no matter what happened Galliano is still genius.

Gaga-Fied

Lady Gaga, the the modern Icon for Freedom, Style and Music. Not only is famous for her outrageous sense of style but also for speaking her mind! I came acros this New York Times article a few days ago anf thought it was a rather interesting take on the Gaganess! Here, an excerpt:

"The tension in Gaga’s self-presentation, far from being idiosyncratic or self-contradictory, epitomizes the situation of a certain class of comfortably affluent young women today. There's a reason they love Gaga. On the one hand, they have been raised to understand themselves according to the old American dream, one that used to be beyond women’s grasp: the world is basically your oyster, and if you just believe in yourself, stay faithful to who you are, and work hard and cannily enough, you'll get the pearl. On the other hand, there is more pressure on them than ever to care about being sexually attractive according to the reigning norms. The genius of Gaga is to make it seem obvious — more so than even Madonna once did — that feminine sexuality is the perfect shucking knife." -The New York Times.
