MFW: D&G

THE question is: WHAT CAN A SILK SCARF DO FOR YOU !!! apparently a whole lot, if you believe my favorite Italian designer duo Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana, you don't need to go shopping at other brands you only have to buy tons of silk scarves for their spring 2012 look, just wrap them around your arms, torso, hair, legs & neck and you have an amazing outfit, combine other scarves together for a whole diffirent wardrobe OR....if your not that handy (like me) just go to your nearest D&G store and get these ready-to-wear garments without picking-up a needle.

(the collection was sooo lovely that i only can share the dutch models with you) DAPHNE GROENEVELDBETTE FRANKEMIRTE MAASMELISSA TAMMERIJNMAUD WELZENPATRICIA VAN DER VLIETthe only sad thing about this collection is that this was the last D&G runway show EVER....MILLE GRAZI Domenico & Stefano for this amazing brand!!!

LFW: MARK FAST

AND NOW IT'S TIME FOR THE KNITWEAR KING....MARK FAST, it's always a pleasure to watch his shows, this time no difference, i really LOVE this spring 2012 collection. the colours are spot-on, the knitwear looks super trooper and the accessories are amazing, i wished i could have that last look for my Paris fashion week trip, so that i could make ANNA DELLO RUSSO see green with envy !!!

LFW: MICHAEL van der HAM

YES YES, MY DUTCH GUY IN LONDON !!! and let's talk about his spring 2012 pants....i just love them (the dresses i'm not that keen on, too scruffy), they got the perfect look: just the right length, the right colours, the right t-shirt or blouse and just the right accessories (adore the bags and belts)....i want it to be summer again !!!

SECOND PARIS INVITE

CLAUDINE IVARI....this girl was born in 1985 and she already has her own fashion house (check her facebook page for some of her boutique pictures....DIVINE !!!), true french couture and i'm SOOO exited that i'm attending her posh runway show.....stay tuned !!!

LFW: UNIQUE by TOPSHOP

OMG, WHAT IS THIS !!! no i can't like this, it's tacky trashy sleazy and freaky (don't get me wrong, i LOVE me some gold but this goes to far), inspiration is one thing and that your inspiration comes from the classic CLEOPATRA movie (starring Dame Elisabeth Taylor), i applaud you BUT to let your collection look like the cheap souvenir shops of Cairo....NO, me do not go on that holiday (only got to have this first look AND only because it's a great tribute to miss Taylor)!!!

LFW: MULBERRY

Emma Hill showed a playful spring 2012 collection, neutral colour use and covered-up models (long-sleeves, jackets, maxi skirts and socks in their sandals, are we in for an cold summer?) walked the runway for MULBERRY (i only looked with horror at those leggings....brrrrrr).
