Red Carpet Fashion: Is it weird that I was scrolling through red carpet images on my phone, saw this photo and then could not wait to get home and post it simply because it was of the love of my life?

Yes, Emma Stone is the love of my life and if you read my blog regularly you would know this seeing as she appears on here at least once a week. 

Here she is at the 2012 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Awards in New York City last night wearing a Burberry Prorsum Spring 2013 look. The straight off the runway navy-blue satin bustier top and emerald green sequinned pencil skirt was paired with black Louboutin heels. Her look was completed with natural makeup and light bouncy straight locks.

The embroidered patent and crocodile dress from the spring 2012 collection in the first cover is to die for.

By the way, I am absolutely in love with the collage and thermal effects used in the covers. I always look forward to seeing the covers of magazines like Pop and Love because they are always so fun and beautiful.

  • Valentino
  • Spring 2012 Haute Couture Week in Paris

I love that no matter the season, no matter the year, a Valentino garment is so identifiable.  The pieces are always ultra feminine, full and perfectly tailored with a keen eye for detail making a woman feel so unbelievably chic and ladylike.

At this years spring 2012 Haute Couture show in Paris sheer cinched waisted cocktail dresses with strategically placed glittery floral embellishments made a prominent statement on the runway. One of my favourite reoccurring looks throughout the collection were the pleated high wasted pants cropped pants which felt very 50s. Lastly I cannot go without paying some sort of attention to the iconic gowns that once again were overflowing with lace, florals, ultra sheer weightless fabrics and crystal embellishments all feeding into Valentino’s classic romanticism. 

Once again Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Picciol have outdone themselves.
