I'm going to tell you flat out

Seeing as today is the day I turn one year older, I've decided to treat myself to a little rant (just want to give a shout-out to one of my friends for yelling "Happy birthday Angelica!" in the hallway today...you know who you are!).  Anyway, one thing I've noticed for the past season or so is that flat shoes are making quite a presence on the...

Dries Van Noten Spring/Summer 2011 RTW

If you ask me to say the first word that comes to mind when I hear "Dries Van Noten", I would say "prints".  For Spring/Summer 2011, Van Noten did not disappoint.  The "prints" in this case were reminiscent of the floral prints on Chinese ceramics.  But along with floral prints, the other big message in this collection was the ever-thinning...

Giorgio Armani Spring/Summer 2011 RTW

The colour black seems to have an indisputable reputation for slimming elegance and perfection.  As chic as black may be, I myself gravitate towards colour.  Colour - whether bold, pastel, or jewel toned - tends to give life to an outfit in a way black cannot.  To my delightful surprise, Giorgio Armani managed to create a stunning collection...

Louis Vuitton Cuir Cinéma Intrigue

The coming together of three beautiful supermodels: Christy Turlington, Karen...

Lanvin for H&M

Ok, so this post is a bit behind, but I felt the need to talk about it anyway (don't worry, I'll get to spring/summer 2011 collections).  As many people probably already know, Lanvin is teaming up with H&M to launch a collection on November 20.  Now, there’s been talk about Lanvin somehow “cheapening” its brand by getting involved with...

First post!

Welcome to my blog, Red-Soled Fashionista!  I'm just your average teenager who, if it isn't already obvious, has a thing for fashion.  Now, I'd love to say I actually own a pair of Louboutins, however I don't.  But that's alright, because fashion is all about fantasy, isn't it?  And you, my readers, don't have to own Louboutins...
