Fall Fashion Week 09

Fashion week has come and gone again. My apologies for not keeping up with it better! I'm just going to talk about my favorite of the few shows I did look at:

ANNA SUI

Her collection for fall this year was SO great--it was hard for me not to post a picture of every look! The looks were inspired by a vintage Parisian boudoir. Of course there was a lot of black, Anna's fave color.

Almost every girl wore some kind of fabulous headpiece. It really made me want to make some of my own. Anna's had rhinestones, jewel-toned plumes, and a few floppy knit hats.

I loved the star motif!

HOW gorgeous was Jourdan Dunn?!

Another fantastic accessory in this line were the tights. Some were colorfully printed...

but the best in show definitely went to the pairs that shimmered at different angles. They looked solid black, but as the models walked down the runway you could see flashes of blue, purple or gold in the light.

To top it all off, my favorite Brit-Girl, Daisy Lowe, walked in this show!

Dress-Up Day!

Let It Fall

Autumn is my favorite season. Growing up in the mountains of east Tennessee surrounded by the rainbow of changing leaves is something I am so thankful for. Nothing is as comforting as the smell of dry leaves in the the crisp air, bundling up in your favorite cold weather clothes and retreating inside to sip hot chocolate in front of the fire place. (Yeah, I actually did all that).

Fall is also an important time in the fashion world! The opportunity to layer more really allows designers' imaginations to run wild. Amidst all the cardigans and woolly tights, though, it's easy to forget about your basics. Luckily, as long as Agent Provocateur is around, there's no way you can leave pretty little intimates off your fall shopping list.

Luxury lingerie brand Agent Provocateur recently released its ad campaign for its fall line, and I absolutely love it. Not only is it set in a colonial style manor decorated for autumn, it features model Daisy Lowe, the current face for Agent P (and personal style icon for me) and fellow British It Girl Peaches Geldof.

It looks like these hot vampire chics felt like crashing Thanksgiving dinner. The dark silks of the collection and the equally dark eyes and silky lips on the models ooze an almost scary sensuality. With pieces like this, who needs a sexy costume this Halloween?
