Alfred Hitchcock Is My Main Man

(Christian Dior Pre-Fall 2009)
In my next life I want to come back as an icy blonde and wear nothing but this coat every single day. Who doesn't love a little leopard trimmed in fox? That is all I think needs to be said. Well done, well done.

Doing Derby


(Christian Dior Spring 2009 Couture)
My entire life for the past month has been consumed with dresses and hats! It's Derby season in Kentucky and life has gotten hectic to say the least! I know that John Galliano is totally crazy but, his creativity rating is off the charts! You have to love a man that even in a credit crisis, still designs pieces in the 6 figure price range. We all know I love being a bit over the top and either one of these looks from the Dior runway would be oh so fab. Too much? Never!

Roller Girls Are Hott

(Missoni)
This baby is exclusively available on Intermixonline.com and I am thinking I may need to sell one of my bags on EBay and buy this right at this moment. I seriously want to wear this to a skating ring and channel roller girl. It is so good that I am having a hard time blogging anything because I just keep staring at it. Missoni madness!

The Peak of Chic


This is Vogue's newest publication. A yummy book chalked full of fabulous houses and gardens whose owners are celebrated figures from the worlds of fashion, music, art, and society. I die a thousand over each and every picture. Between the photos of one of Karl Lagerfeld's many homes to the lavish salon of photographer Francois Halard's home in Arles, I am in absolute heaven! This is a must read and should be a staple on every one's coffee table!

It's Electric

(Matthew Williamson)
I am dying over this kaleidoscopic silk box clutch by Matthew Williamson. I don't even think I would be able to fit my lip gloss in this yummy item but, I really don't think I even care. The multi colored tassel is so festive. I have heard you have to pack light when backpacking through Europe. I am pretty sure this would qualify as small enough and why would I need anything with me if I have this? I wouldn't. Spain? Check!

A Little Loco

(Givenchy Fall 2009 RTW)
I know this fit is a bit out there for everyday wear...well, I would probably sport it but, I can be a bit over the top sometimes! However, can someone please give me a caboose and a glass of champagne? I am loving the locomotive motif and the dupioni silk pant is stunning, especially in that sexy midnight hue. I am not going to try and guess what type of fur is on the coat but, it works for me. Anyone want to be my passenger on my train going to Givenchy land? I promise to wear the hat!

Drool-fest





(Kiera Knightly in The Duchess)
I could not wait to blog this today! I rented this movie last night on OnDemand and I die a thousand! I was aware that Micheal O'Conner won the Oscar for Best Costume Design and now I know why. Every single outfit from the dresses to the furs to the wigs were absolutely heart stopping. Keira Knightly is drop dead gorgeous anyways but, her role as Georgina, The Duchess of Devonshire is uber fabulous. I as usual could not pick my favorite outfit. Although, if I did get any one item from her wardrobe, it would have to be that ridiculously large fur muff. Yes please! Go big or go home! I hear ya Keira! I am so wanting to go back in time to 1877 and rock some of these looks.
