Bag Shapes for Fall 2011

Something that I found really fun last season, which I’m doing again this season, is Jessica Rabbit’s Round Up of Bag Shapes for Fall 2011. This is essentially my Top Picks for this coming season, which you’ll be finding on the shelves in the next few weeks.

This season you will be likely to find bucket bags in exotic skins, portfolio clutches and beautifully embellished evening bags, from textured to quirky. I particularly love Louis Vuitton’s metallic gold cuff clutch, Olympia Le-Tan’s eccentric book-cover inspired clutch and Christian Louboutin’s spikey shoulder bag. I, for one, am certainly finding the shape of things to come particularly exciting! (All images are sourced from style.com)

Zara August 2011 Lookbook

Zara's August 2011 Lookbook is phenom! It’s full of clean-cut androgynous silhouettes, fur, sequins and optical prints in rich hues of navy, rust and forest green. 

Give me any of the coats and I’d be one happy lady.

Lanvin Fall Winter 2011 Ad Campaign

This video for Lanvin's Fall Winter 2011 collection has been all over Twitter this weekend and I’m in love. Love the awkward dancing, love love love the dresses, the boys are fab and it features beats from Pitbull who I’m so obsessed with at the moment (don’t judge it’s very guilty pleasure).

Prabal Gurung Fall 2011 Exclusive

What was one of my favourite shows from Fall 2011, Prabal Gurung’s moody campaign is hauntingly beautiful. These exclusive images from Fashionology will never see the light of day but rather serve as a reminder as to the fluidity of the garments and reignite the passion we all felt when we first saw his collection, all those months ago. 

Trend Forecast : Collar Necklaces

Yay! Finally something I’m excited about. Collar Necklaces – need I say more? I am a major fan of Peter Pan and Tuxedo collars but these luxurious and detachable necklaces are oh so beautiful. Seen on runways for Louis Vuitton and Chanel, I’m positive that these babies will be a must-have item for your wardrobe.
