Get Printed !

The printed pant ! A key look of Spring/Summer 2012. If, like me, you haven't been brave enough to go for the floral, tropical prints, opt for a more subtle animal print in a darker colour. I loved these jeans when I first saw them. They just screamed Isabel Marant, but without the hefty price tag. I attempted French chic by keeping it simple and pairing it with my trusty white t-shirt and sturdy black boots. For night I love it with my sheer, button up, black shirt, with leather collar and cuffs.
The most wanted pair seems to be Rag & Bone's wild blue print. See Australian blogger Jessica Stein from Tuula. Now you know they're cool if she is wearing them !
How are you wearing your printed trousers? Have you been brave enough??
Thats all for now,

It's that time of the year, when fashion meets art and draws all of Hollywood and fashion's most stylish people together. This year, you were no one unless you were in Prada. Celebs from Eva Mendes to Kate Bosworth all worked the Prada dress. Miuccia must have had some work on her hands in the lead up to the event. Classically Prada, all of the dresses were unique and different. Not many other labels could have so many of the same designer at one event, but Queen Miuccia can !
Other winners included Coco Rocha in a vintage Givenchy suit, originally wore by Elizabeth Taylor and Elizabeth Banks wearing an eye catching Mary Katrantzou creation. Two Topshop dresses were in the mix, holding their own with all the Haute Couture of the evening.

Trends included feathers as seen on Beyonce and metallic was choice of the evening. Plunging necklines and thigh/hip splits were also popular with everyone showing a little skin. A lot of celebs were sporting a dark lip, including Camille Belle. I am loving this look. I want to try it out for myself. Part grunge part glamour.
All in all I think there were more gos than nos, even Kristen Stewart managed to crack a smile in Balenciaga, now that is a win !
Thats all for now,
