Marni for H&M

I cannot believe I am sitting here typing up a post about Marni for H&M; it feels like I just finished posting about Versace not too long ago!  Once again, school has prevented me from keeping up to date on the latest fashion news, and I've missed the launch of Marni for H&M by 3 weeks.  It was especially significant this time...

Confessions of a Shopaholic

First it was The September Issue, now it's Confessions of a Shopaholic (2009).  Seems I'm in the mood to talk about fashion-related movies lately! Confessions of a Shopaholic is a movie adaptation of a book by Sophie Kinsella.  I've read all the books in the Shopaholic series, and it is one of the best examples of good chick lit.  Girly,...

Bowled Over by Bowles

I'd like to take the time to devote a post to the great Hamish Bowles, Vogue's European Editor at Large. I should probably admit now that I absolutely adore this man.  The flair he brings to Vogue is irreplaceable.  Just from his looks, you can already tell he's sophisticated, intelligent and very dapper, but always with a twist - whether...

Lady Dior - Lady Grey London

I've said before that there are very few fashion videos out there I find worth taking the time to watch.  A fashion film is best when it embodies the essence of the brand without being too long and drawn-out (ahem, Karl Lagerfeld), contains gorgeous fashion, and like any film, has good acting!  Ever since watching Édith Piaf, and then...

Green with Envy

I didn't do a St. Patrick's Day post last year, but with my favourite actor being Irish, I can't pass up the chance this year!  Of course seeing as this is a fashion blog, I'll be talking about the colour green more than anything else.  But it isn't going to be as simple as that.  I've been watching a lot of movies lately, and there's...

Keeping it Personal

Just like how that person in front of you at Starbucks orders a "Grande no-whip white chocolate mocha with five pumps and an extra shot, made with soy", everyone has their personal preferences.  Personal style is no different - a "cute, feminine, trendy girl who occasionally dabbles with the casual California beach style on the weekends,...

Alexander McQueen Fall/Winter 2012 RTW

This is going to be my last review for Fall/Winter 2012 RTW, but if you want to see a review of any of the shows, just let me know!  When I have time, I might revisit some of the other collections worth mentioning.  Until then, let's end my mini Fashion Week Marathon with a look at Alexander McQueen. So far, Sarah Burton has been fairly...
