spring (SHOES) we are waiting for you!

Barbara Bui

Today is the last day of 2010, I should make my list of good purposes but I prefer thinking and writing about...SHOES! I'm optimistic and I already want to speak about spring.

The next spring we'll wear sculptured wedges by Prada, Alexander McQueen, Rodarte, wood stilettos by Calvin Klein and rope shoes by Dior!

And finally there're the originals designers who always create something new and different such as Louboutin, Manolo Blahnik and Jimmy Choo!

I was fascinated by the amount of colors on the catwalks...wonderful!

I don't like them all because I'm not a wedges fan...anyway here're the pictures!

Have a good last day of 2010!

Lady Gaga influencing the Fashion World

The last thing anyone would have thought was that the fashion industry would be influenced by the unusual and revolting style of Lady Gaga. But here we are in the twenty first century where someone who is in a perpetual state of half dress is so strongly influencing fashion.

Lady Gaga has put her style sense and music stamp all over the charts. Her fashion is influencing the biggies of the fashion world incuding Prada, Givenchy, Derek Lam and even the always sophisticated Chanel.

Gaultier Paris leg-bearing bodysuit is certainly a creation from the Gaga effect.

The Pantless Mania

Lady Gaga's aversion to pants is well-known and it is no surprise to read that the blonde singer is responsible for a huge increase in the sales of knickers in Britain. It's just not the lingerie, but even the mainline collection of designers is displaying the trend.

Handbags for Spring/Summer 2009

HANDBAGS. We love them and we cannot just have enough of them.

The handbags are no longer just a mere accessory, it has become a fundamental element of a woman's look. And this change in perception was seen on the runway everywhere, where the handbags were worn with pride and elegance by the models.

Recession is looming on us, but that would not mean that we would stop paying attention to style. This season, the focus is more on the accessories, and BAGS is one of them. So instead of more clothes (that would be far more expensive), invest in practical but fashionable accessories to update your look.

This season's trends include useful and practical totes to clutches. Clean, simple (no-fuss) and structured bags will make a big fashion statement. Spring is about expressing yourself, and to uplift the mood this season's focus is on COLOURS. Don't be afraid of colour; go for bold and beautiful styles.

Comfortable, roomy and structured bags with smart detailings look classy, will always be in and will also make a statement.
