replica cartier mens and ladies watches

Limi Feu rolled out the hot pink carpet last week for her first Parisian venue, a purpose-shifting boutique- cum-showroom. The bright entrance was all the better to draw attention to the otherwise unmarked shop near the Rue Montorgueil in the 2nd arrondissement. Adhering to an ethos of unexpectedness—the space will morph into a showroom after January 17 and then into a different concept in late March—Yohji Yamamoto’s designing daughter hopes to be somewhat more “rock ‘n’ roll” with the space than the classical fashion retail canon dictates. While the designer’s two Tokyo shops offer fashions for women and children, the Paris outpost has only the former. Those wares include sharply cut femme fatale tuxedo vests, pristine white blouses, lush knits—and even a ribbed turtleneck collar delicately trimmed in rhinestones, all registering in the mid-to-high three-digit price range. “It’s very particular and artistic, but crisis aside it’s selling very well among the initiated,” said one sales girl on a recent visit.—Tina Isaac

Megan Fox made a guest appearance on ‘The Tonight Show with Jay Leno’ on Monday to promote her upcoming movie, ‘Friends with Kids’, which is set to hit theatres on March 9th.

She showed off her toned legs wearing a Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2012 skirt which had silver, white and gold embellished pleats.

The actress teamed her skirt with a white sleeveless top with black satin ties.

She donned shoes by her favourite shoe designer, Brian Atwood, and added Irene Neuwirth jewels to her look.
Wavy brunette locks and pretty makeup provided the finishing touches.

With so much detail on the skirt, maybe Megan should’ve considered a simpler top.

Frankie Sandford from the girl band ‘The Saturdays’ was spotted leaving the MayFair hotel in London on Valentines Day with a friend to go shopping.

The singer wore a Topshop sailor blazer paired with a faux Chanel tee, denim shorts, tights and black knee high boots.

Geri Halliwell was spotted outside St. John’s church in Hampstead a few weeks later sporting the same nautical style blazer.

She wore hers with a striped top – to carry on the nautical theme – and boyfriend jeans whilst carrying a cool Aspinal of London Union Jack shopper.

3 days after Geri, Katrina Bowden also wore this blazer.

She was the only one to wear this blazer on the red carpet.

She paired her blazer with a silk top and skinny jeans when she attended the Alice + Olivia launch party at Saks Fifth Avenue in New York City.

I love how each girl has styled this blazer in different ways.

As much as I love Katrina’s skinny jeans with this look, I love the Geri’s overall laid-back look so she wins for me.

This blazer is available to purchase from Topshop US and Topshop International.

How do you top a Thandie Newton post?

With a Cate Blanchett post of course.

The Australian actress has come out of hibernation to flaunt her fabulousity.

She was in New York last night as Giorgio Armani welcomed her and the Sydney Theatre Company with a dinner at Armani Ristorante.

She looked so elegant wearing an indigo Armani Privé Spring 2009 one-padded-shouldered dress with a gathered tasselled detail on her hip.

I love the modification, it fits her style so perfectly and proves why she’s the perfect muse for Mr Armani.

The actress is in New York to star in the play “A Streetcar Named Desire” at the BAM Harvey Theater.

Some of you have told me that you’ve got tickets to see the play which runs from 27 November -20 December.

In Monique Lhuillier’s show notes she said she was inspired by the Masia Warriors.

Whilst viewing the collection I felt more of a roaring 20s vibe from the flapper dresses and fringed detailing. The collection for me paid homage to screen stars of a golden age with the classic shapes and strong detailing.

The collection was supremely elegant. It felt like Monique had made decision to make the pieces more simplistic.

The gowns and dresses breathlessly whispered look at me.

There wasn’t too much frou frou. No bells no whistles just stunning gowns with beautiful details.

Stunning evening gowns will make the Rachel Zoe and the other stylists at the presentation happy, but there were also cute cocktail dresses.

The pieces were jewel encrusted, draped,  pin-tucked, ruched and of course fringed.

With the Emmy’s around the corner, I’m guessing many will have be picked as potential contenders for the big night.

Here are a few of my favourites. You can view the whole collection at Style.com.

When I saw this picture of Emma Watson yesterday on the cover American Vogue’s July 2011 issue, I honestly didn’t recognise her.

After reading who it was, I showed it to my sister covering the name. When I asked her who it was she got it in one with no hesitation.

Maybe I’m so used to the ‘Hermione Granger’ Emma Watson, that I can’t see past the rouge lips, slick back hair and Prada Fall 2011 paillette covered dress.

The star works a Fall 2011 in her editorial featuring Tom Ford, Aquilano.Rimondi, Calvin Klein and Dolce & Gabbana.

This summer Emma will say goodbye to Hermione forever when “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2,” is released in July, but Emma officially said goodbye to Hermione when she cut her hair short.

Emma talks to Vogue about finding herself after Harry Potter and balancing work and educations.

Here are some extracts from her interview, followed by her breath-taking editorial shot by Mario Testino.

On experimenting in the Harry Potter makeup trailer: “That was my playground. I would sit and play with lipsticks, foundations, and eye shadows; and every now and then [head of makeup, Amanda Knight] would let me do the extras’ face paint for the Quidditch matches.” Read more…

Kirsten Dunst attended the 2011 Museum of Contemporary Art Gala, which was held on Saturday night in LA.

The actress is the first to wear a look from the Rodarte Spring 2012 collection.

This is no surprise to any of us considering she’s long been the muse to Kate and Laura Mulleavy.

The relationship has been a long and successful one, but I’m on the fence on this occasion.

I usually find it hard to warm to shapeless dresses, but this aqua tulle strapless empire gown with its metallic navy swirl embroidery has me intrigued.

I think I’m blinded by how beautiful Kirsten is with her flawless makeup and 40s hairstyle.

A black Chanel bow-accented clutch, diamond floral earrings, and matching diamond bracelet completed her look.

Are you on the fence like me? Or do you love it or hate it?

The crowd roared as the Pet Shop Boys hit the first notes of “Go West.” But Prada had come East, hosting a bubbly-fueled runway show, party, and performance on Saturday night at the Central Academy of Fine Arts Museum in Beijing.The evening began with continuing rumors of an imminent Prada IPO: So important has China become to the luxury-goods market that some thought an announcement would be made at the event (it wasn’t). With business matters shunted aside, attention focused on the label’s Spring collections as models Arizona Muse, Fei Fei Sun, and Clement Chabernaud moseyed past front-row guests including actresses Gong Li and Maggie Cheung.As always with Prada, glamour came in haute-culture garb. Among the other revelers packing the museum’s soaring atrium were top Chinese artists Xu Bing and 2010 Hugo Boss Prize finalist Cao Fei, as well as architects Yung Ho Chang and Ma Yansong. Even the entertainment was cast with a brainy bent. “They’re a great myth,” a beaming Miuccia Prada said of the Pet Shop Boys as Neil Tennant broke into “Suburbia” onstage. “They’re deep, pop intellectuals.”

THE first posthumous book on the life and work of designer Lee Alexander McQueen (known by his middle name to all but those closest to him) was published barely two months after his suicide in February last year.
