Elis Saab Haute Couture S/S 2011

My favourite haute couture designer has to be Elie Saab. Season after season he comes up with the most glamourous yet sophisticated gowns. This collection is everything that I love - lace, beading & sheer fabrics teamed with simple hair & makeup. Loving the colour pallet too. I love getting all dressed up and glamourous - any excuse will do! Right now I'm obsessed with splits in long dresses and skirts and am looking for something of the like for a few upcoming events. I'm well and truly over the mini trend. Nothing like getting a little fashion inspiration from the Paris haute couture shows...

Leopard & Lace - Dolce & Gabbana Summer 2011

 Oh I just love these ensembles!

The perfect LBD!

Love this look - If only it was permissible to wear high waisted underwear & with a shirt in public

Fashion Gone Rogue

Oh I just love this collection. My two favourites combined - leopard & lace in a classic silhouettes. I own a variety of lace items and leopard fur (I've been a fan since I was about 10) but I think a leopard print satin skirt would make an excellent addition to my wardrobe. I'm planning to team it with a crisp white skirt and sleek black pumps for a upbeat corporate look or with a black corset and killer heels for a fabulous night out.
