CHANEL RESORT 2011

(ST. TROPEZ)

Finally, an unexpected return to utterly beautiful feminism. The worlds most wanted models of the moment frolicked in the elegent streets of St. Tropez yesterday flattered by floral jumpsuits, floor-length knits & the cutest gingham bikini. The vibe was Innocent romance infused with 1970's rock glamour so whether a rock star or bohemian muse- there was a piece to appeal to all. Pink pastels, subtle floral's, gingham prints, metallic touches & stripes galore.

It was a field day of fashion fantasies that could only be realized by the house of Chanel.

METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART COSTUME GALA  
(A NIGHT TO BE REMEMBERED IN THE HISTORY OF FASHION)

 

At the MET Gala this year style was finally in full supply from the celebrity set. From the full-frontal glamour gowns (Anne Hathaway is absolute princess perfection) to the more modern takes on red carpet style (Alexa Chung's Phillip Lim suit Ensemble) there is always a guarantee for history making style moments at the MET. I loved Chanel Iman's Michael Kors Mettalic Gold Jumpsuit & Camilla Belle's Lavish Red Jason Wu Gown.

WHAT I WISH FOR...

BACK TO BASICS

'BASICS' ARE MY PRIDE AND JOY. THEY ARE ESSENTIAL, CLASSIC & THE BUILDING BLOCKS FOR ALL MY ENSEMBLES. I SPEND MORE TIME & MONEY ON GOOD T-SHIRTS & JEANS THAN I EVER HAVE ON A DRESS OR SHOES (EXCEPTION GRANTED TO MY LITTLE BLACK DRESS). THIS MAY SEEM ABSURD TO SOME (LIKE MY MUM WHO DOES NOT UNDERSTAND SPENDING OVER $100 ON A COTTON T-SHIRT) BUT (MUM PLEASE TAKE NOTE) THEY ARE THE PIECES I WEAR EVERYDAY, ALL YEAR ROUND, FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. TO SOME IT MAY SEEM SAFE & BORING BUT PERSONALLY I THINK THEY ARE THE STAPLE ESSENTIALS TO THE WARDROBE OF ANY STYLISH WOMAN. THERE SEEMS TO BE AN APPRECIATION FOR THIS BACK-TO-BASICS THEORY AT THE MOMENT, JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE MARC JACOBS, STELLA MCARTNEY & CELINE SHOWS THIS SEASON. ALEXANDER WANG, BASSIKE & A.P.C ARE MY GO-TO BRANDS FOR THE BEST BASIC PIECES THAT I KNOW WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR ME- RAIN, HAIL OR SHINE. 

 (ALEXANDER WANG T-SHIRT & SKIRT, STELLA MCARTNEY DENIM SKIRT, CHLOE SILK SHIRT, ALEXANDER WANG TRACK PANT, A.C.P STRIPE SWEATER, ALEXANDER WANG BAG & SHOES)

TAYLOR TOMASSI HILL OF TEEN VOGUE HAS AN ADMIRABLY UNIQUE STYLE COMBINING A SLIGHTLY ECCENTRIC & BOHEMIAN TOUCH WITH SIMPLE & CLASSIC PIECES. I ADMIRE HER USE OF LAYERING, COLOUR & THE WAY SHE MIXES TRENDS TO CREATE HER OWN STYLE AESTHETIC.
