Just a few laughs for Wednesday!

We've all seen the Sh*t Girls Say video and still laugh at its accuracy. So thanks to Platform we now have one we can relate to even more! Sh*t Fashion Girls Say! These videos are 100% true, I have been caught aging these things and I'm sure you have been to! Time for some giggles and laughs :) Enjoy my dreamers xx

And for part 2...

Kate Moss...What is she up to Next?

Well, the lovely Kate Moss I am happy to say is going to be the face of MANGO's Spring ad campaign!  Mango is a Barcelona-based company who's designs are gorgeous. LookBook recently had a competition to see who would be Mango's IT girl.  The brand is always striving to have only well-known models as the face of campaigns.  Past campaigns from the brand have featured Elizabeth Hurley and Scarlet Johansson. 

Dior's time to SHINE

2011 was a rough year for Dior, after John Galliano being caught saying some racist slurs outside of a bar. Soon after being fired from his Creative Director duties.  Then in hopes of finding a new Creative Director Marc Jacobs completely turns them down! Well, finally they are ready to take 2012 by storm.

Versace kicks off Couture Week the Donatella Way

Of course if you have been reading WWD (or as I like to call it the Fashion Bible), you are aware that Couture Week has started! Who better than to kick it off than the outrageous Donatella Versace.  The Atelier Versace Spring Summer 2012 ejects pure glamour.  From the sequins to metallics, the 15 look collection was out of this world.

Golden Globes..the Best & the Worst.

Another year, another awards show season. As a fashion student I can honestly say I am more excited about the red carpet than the actual awards given out. It is so much fun seeing the gowns and the suits, some celebs get it right and some look like trash.  I like to be honest when it comes to these things so if you disagree please feel free to leave a comment for me, otherwise enjoy....

Let's first start off with the some of my personal favorites...

Ella Macpherson

Designer: Zac Posen


Ella Macpherson's dress was absolutely stunning.  The best looks are the ones that are so effortlessly done. She nailed it! This dress is completely her and even though this color was very popular the whole night she owned this like she was the only one wearing it.  The styling was also done to perfection! LOVE LOVE LOVE.
