Stylish Girl: Kate Bosworth in Chloe Spring 2011

Kate Bosworth wearing my favorite piece in the Chloe Spring 2011 collection. Not sure about the sheer black hose but I definitely still have the hots for that dress.

Pre-Fall 2011: Chanel Paris-Byzance Show

I haven't had a chance to delve into all of the pre-fall images yet, but as always Chanel caught my eye. The shimmering gold theme lends itself perfectly as inspiration for what you might want to wear on New Year's Eve. You could easily recreate the updo by pinning a vintage bracelet or necklace into your hair.

What are you gals going to wear? For the first time we don't have any set plans. We might just stay cozy at home, watching the countdown on tv while eating lots of delicious cheese. Though I love to dress up, and I have several contenders in the closet hoping to have a night out. 

I know the main focus is the clothing but I'm enamored with the hand painted rugs. Though I would love to to add Karl's diaphanous dresses and jeweled sandals to my closet.

 

I love the mosaic detailing on the clothing, it reminds me of a Klimt painting.

Miu Miu Resort 2011-Heart Prints

Today is the coldest day so far this year, so it is fitting that I'm dreaming about going somewhere warm. Resort lines are starting to pour into the stores, and one that I have my eye on is Miu Miu 2011. I'm a sucker for heart prints, so it is easy to love parts of this collection.

If everything goes right, I'll be able to look at the pieces up close in about 3 weeks! I love the apple green dress, and how adorable are the heart scarves?

J.Crew Spring 2011

Found a couple of things in the J.Crew Spring 2011 collection that piqued my interest. This is all subject to change of course once I have a chance to observe everything up close;)

1. Off the shoulder dresses and nude peep toes
2. Confession: I picked up a similar pair of grey sweatpants at F21 and like to wear them outside of the house and not in the gym.
3.Open weave top and boots that I wish had come out for fall 2010. Also trying to wrap my head around wearing peach and orange tones in the spring.
4.That pink top grosses me out, but I love the shorts on their own. The paper bag effect reminds me of that Mulberry skirt that I love, and the scalloped bottom reminds me of Chloe. 
5.Ah, that slouchy blouse with menswear style trousers. Very Charlotte Rampling. 
6.I love long skirts with a body conscious fit

Alexa Chung for Madewell

Did anyone grab anything from the Alexa Chung for Madewell collection? I happened to be up when the collection hit online but it seemed there were several items missing. I scanned everywhere for the blazer(sweater?) above but came up empty.

Is this old? Part of the Alexa Chung collection or just a Madewell piece used for styling? Maybe not Madewell at all? How many freaking questions can I ask? I don't know. I've had a crazy week and I'm speaking zombie right now.

I did order the Harriet Pintuck dress, but not sure if the collar is going to work for me. I think I would have preferred just a simple round neckline but I'll wait to do a full review when it arrives.
