Stella Stella Stella!








Stella's resort creations are absolutely spot on for Resort. Her collection was refreshing, original, gorgeous, exactly what a collection should be! I am absolutely crazy about this collection, I would wear every single ensemble. The collection included many shift dress so you got to make sure those legs are toned for the summer!

Stella went into origami this season, using Lanvin-esque style foldings on some of the one shoulder dresses and on the back of the shift dresses. Prints were inspired by botanical flowers, done on shit dresses in white and a beautiful sky blue. Stella also explored this great cut-out technique that translated into a great delicate outfit.

Stella's use of coloring, prints, and cutout techniques was absolutely ravishing, the collection was as fabulous as the celebrities in the audience!
I simply have two little words to say about this collection: Absolute PERFECTION!

CFDA's Best dressed

Gwyneth Paltrow in Michael Kors, SJP paying tribute in a beautiful Alexander McQueen dress, Ed Westwick just looking as smokin' as ever, and Hana Soukupova in Marchesa.

Oscar De La Renta








The man has seriously NOT lost his touch one bit! This is by far my favorite resort collection till now! Oscar De La Renta hit this one outta the park! Oscar completely disregarded this season's fixation with minimalism and went with some pretty interesting colors and embellishments. There was the added youth element which came alive in the accessories such as great leather belts and his use of blazer certainly made a huge difference. He certainly did leave his clients with many choices, with different silhouettes, a great short, tight gowns and full blown ball gowns

Not was the fashion insane, Oscar really did embrace the 21st century! Some of the models were clutching iPads as they walked the runway and the show was also streamed live on facebook! Oscar proved that he is anything but an old timer!

DvF Resort






Diane Von Furstenberg flipped a 180 on her resort show, this show was ultra-femine in cotrast to her menswear inspired fall show. The line was inspired by a 1983 photograph of the designer sitting on a stool with a pink teddy in front of a wall of mirrors. This sexy image was transformed into the runway layout, the models walked out checked themselves out in the mirror then stepped though the key-hole onto the runway. A very play-ful fun way to portray a collection.

The clothes were fabulous for a resort collection, Furstenberg played with prints on very short dresses, high-waisted shorts, and many swimsuits. The color scheme of holiday colors was the cherry on top of the resort pie. Everything about this collection from the way it was presented to the clothes to the accessories all transmitted one message; DVF's tribute to everything feminine!

T- Bags





Definitely worth a look if you are in the market for maxi dresses. The company T bags is based in L.A. it was started by two young girls who wanted to create sexy yet affordable clothes. Their clothes are definitely worth a look at if not a purchase, they use an array of interesting prints and fabrics.

Available online and in most department stores.

Photo of the Week

Hilary Rhoda looks divine in the UK issue of UK Harper's Bazaar. Photographed by Paola Kudacki and styled by Vanessa Coyle. I love how the dress is fitted onto her body, looks like a sculpture almost alien like..

I HEART YSL!





I absolutely love YSL's resort collection! Looks like Stefano Pilati is finally lightening up, a drastic change from his fall show in February. Pilati paid tribute to the seventies using trends such as high waisted shorts throughout the collection. The amazing this about this collection is that is really felt like a YSL collection as apposed to the last ready to wear endeavor. The shapes Pilati uses are new and innovative.

DOnt even get me started on his fantastic use of colors! Pilati paid tribute here to the classic YSL colors, fuchsia, coral, lilac. A great combination is the mix of both fuchsia and mustard color.

The silhouettes, the bandeaus, the coloring, everything from head to toe, I just love it! A smash hit for the brand and for Pilati.
