Lace Teacups

My favourite outfit of the entire collection, a tea-party fit red lace dress

If you haven't checked out the new Erdem s/s 2011 collection, you should. It's a mix of everything girly: lace and flower prints in the form of dresses, soft, feminine hairdos (if only I could get my unruly mop to do that!), and ethereal makeup. It's the quintessential british tea party attire. Definitely one of my favourite shows this season, well done Mr. Moralioglu! (The photos are from New York Magazine's Fashion Blog The Cut)


Some of my favourite looks from the show. Mr Moralioglu started out with a plain yet gorgeous set of white lace dresses, slowly adding in colours and prints, along with separates. There's great continuity in his designs, and this continued his tradition of giving one of the best collections each season.

Prada Spring/Summer 2011 Ad Campaign


Prada's new campaign = to die for! It's like 80's workwear mixed with a sort of Mexican Día de los Muertos color palate. The music and dancing sort of makes me think of a modern Carmen Miranda with a little funk and sex appeal ("Mirando" by Ratatat). What I would do to get my hands on that monkey print shirt and that navy and white striped skirt.
