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...

Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2011 | Milan Fashion Week

Fashion Gone Rogue

Dolce and Gabbana's Spring 2011 collection is breathtaking. A lovely, white cotton dress is definitely on my spring/summer essentials list now, along with a pair of white espadrilles. The black maxi is fantastic too, along with the print maxi with the white embroidery detailing, all revealing crisp white lingerie under the sheer fabrics. The essence of Italian coastal dressing, complete with dainty gold cross necklaces. White seems to be the seasons colour of choice. Ahhh I'm sighing in delight :) The words "La dolce vita" come to mind. Perfection!
