The Spirit of Travel - Louis Vuiton's Ad Campaign in South Africa



Hi there

Hope your week is going well 

Louis Vuitton has released their " over the top"  spring campaign set right here in the Mzansi. The ads, shot by Peter Lindbergh, star Karen Elson, Edie Campbell, a whole lot of Louis Vuitton bags, and a giraffe. A cheetah, lion cub, and a zebra which also make appearances in the ads, I am still flabbergasted that the images were not manipulated, amazing right? Would love to see more of such fashion campaigns/shoots from our very own magazines or brands 

The campaign, titled "Spirit of Travel," 

Elson and Campbell traipse around in clothes from Vuitton's spring and resort collections and carry monogrammed bags that include two new styles, all handpicked by the campaign's stylist, Carine Roitfeld. Models are always in these awkward/scary poses, I can never imagine myself feeding a Giraffe so E.T style but then again I am not a model









I for one can not wait to see the ad on any issue

Lovely evening and thank you for reading

The Future in Fashion



Hey Fashion Lovers

Always thought events like Fashion Week came with strict rules and regulation one being leave your silver spooned kid at home with the help. 
At this seasons New York Fashion Week the hottest of seats were occupied by minors who can not even tell the difference between the cirrus and cirrostratus clouds
but then again this is fashion and I can bet you these kids know everything from the correct pronouncing of designer names to who the editors are of various fashion magazines, training them while still smelling of breast milk hahaha.
One thing for sure is these kids have already made their mark in the fashion world and I can not wait to see what they will aspire to be

Below are my favourite toddlers spotted and Fashion Week

Haper Beckham
Victoria Beckham little gorgeous chubby checked daughter, was well behaved in her Chloe white sundress and chic top knot made the likes of Anna Wintour show some teeth which she is known not to do at all. A million toddlers would die just to sit next to Large Anna Wintour and be the centre of attention



ALAIA WANG

This 4 year -old fashionista is a regular at Fashion Week and is designer Alexander Wang's niece and has amazing street-style





Summer Chamblin


If I have a daughter one day she would be Summer Chamblin. This pint-sized fashionista understands fashion on all levels.  She is the daughter of  Stylist June Ambrose with whom she was also doing her Summer internship with and captured every moment via her Instagram page

Hey Guys

" Every year the women of New York leave the past behide and look forward to the future..this is Fashion Week "

You all know that September is like the January in the Fashion Industry and with that being said its obvious that designers want to showcase what they have been slaving and sweating all year on.

The thing that excites me the most is what is being worn in the streets, below are some streetstyle inspirations

Trending: Pom Poms

Fashion lovers how you doing?

 Did you all love the fashion at the MET Gala that took place on Monday, who was your best dressed, please check out our instagram page to see pics of who wore what.

The pom pom trend has caught my eye and I'm loving it because I believe an accessory always makes an outfit look major HAUTE adding that distinctive touch and with an over-sized pom pom you will never go wrong. I spotted Mira Duma  recently at this season's Spring 2013 Couture shows, loved every outfit but what stood out to me was the pom poms she she had on her coats and I knew instantly that its gonna be a trend that will follow but most important I thought it was a  very fashionable and cute way to accessorize your winter coats and beanies adding some glamour, and a playfull edge.

As I did my research I learned that the particular  fur pom pom is actually a brooch from Russian designer Viva Vox fall 2012 collection which were feature on the front and shoulders of coats.





                                                                                                            
So all we accessorising our coats this winter with some over-sized pom pom or something unique like that to add a playful edge even if its a DIY ? Please comment below and let me know what you think of this trend
