Chanel SUPERmarket

Oh, how I would've loved to be a fly on the wall of the Grand Palais when this went down (and Garance's account of it all makes it even more amazing):

Step back in time: Stella McCartney's iconic 'Horse' collection for Chloe Spring/Summer 2001

I was flicking through my wardrobe seeing what I can fit into, and sighed when I saw my strapless Chloe horse dress, leading me to reminisce. The 'Chloe horse' collection is in all likelihood my all-time favourite collection of Stella McCartney's to date (or one of my all-time favourite collections period).

Starting with the 'fruit' blouses with their unique sleeves (and the humorous line on the back of the 'banana' top: "keep your bananas off my melons), to the amazing horse prints (how iconic is that brown silk chiffon dress with the ivory horses printed on it, worn by 'Carrie' on 'Sex and the City"?), the flouncy sleeves, the beautifully-cut man-style pants, some of my favourite models (especially Caroline Ribeiro)...It was hard to 'edit' and whittle down my favourite looks (apologies in advance for the RSI that may be induced by scrolling down):

 Am absolutely kicking myself for not pouncing on this dress when I saw it on Ebay (I couldn't fit it at the time, but would now, boo!)! This is one of my favourite pieces of this collection...

 I have the 'negative opposite' of this dress (ivory horse on brown dress) - and must say this pic doesn't do this dress justice!

Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2013 Pt 1: Dries Van Noten

The new Blogger is still driving me nuts, apologies for the bad layout of the pics below.  Apologies also for going MIA for so long.  I have finally 'surface' from my work for Issue 5 of Peut-Etre, and am incredibly excited about it, can't wait to share more with you all when the time comes!  At last...I get to post about Dries' SS'13 collection.  

Plaid! Ok, so I must admit I am a big closet plaid fan...and Dries managed to make this mannish fabric so ultra feminine! Master of mixology, he mixed the prints up brilliantly! Some pieces I liked more for the fabric or print rather than the shape, and vice-versa. Needless to say, I absolutely LOVED this collection!
