Checking
out fashion websites on a daily basis for the blog, I've seen some things that
are coming our way this fall, and let me tell you: things are looking gooooood.
So, for this post, here's an overview of some quintessential F/W 2011 MUST-HAVES! Yay!!
1. CARINE ROITFELD: IRREVERENT
So, for this post, here's an overview of some quintessential F/W 2011 MUST-HAVES! Yay!!
1. CARINE ROITFELD: IRREVERENT
First and foremost, a fine piece of fashion literature.
After
her resignation from French Vogue in December 2010, Carine Roitfeld
hasn't exactly been hanging in a hammock in Hawaï, sipping Pina Coladas
and enjoying her well-earned retirement. Au contraire!
Since then, she's already collaborated with American department store Barney's (editing, styling and modeling
- the woman can do it ALL), teamed up with renowned fashion
photographer Terry Richardson, and made guest appearances at every major
fashion event that mattered.
And now, the lady is bringing us her first ever book. "Featuring a selection of 250 magazine tear sheets and covers from pivotal editorial shoots and advertising campaigns, as well as intimate visual ephemera, this book gives an inside view into Roitfeld's creative thought process and sensibility. A must-have for those interested in cutting-edge fashion and femininity, this book will empower women to follow Roitfeld's lead and take risks with their personal style."
Sadly, we still have to wait 'till October 18th for the book to finally hit the stores, but for the real fashionista's among us: you can already pre-order it on www.amazon.com.

Just check out the IM F/W 2011 show, and you'll get a pretty good idea.
Leather sleeveless jackets, jeans shirts (yes, they're still doing it), glitter dresses, frilly boots, ... The collection has got it ALL.
3. SILVER NAIL POLISH
You've seen it in the fall/winter 2011 fashion shows, you've seen it on Beyoncé in her new video 1+1, hell, you've even seen it on Tori Spelling's son Liam (don't believe me? check out this picture!). There's no denying that silver nails are HOT this season.
Now, the only thing you have to do is try to pick your fav between all the brands that are bringing out their silvers.
My preference personally goes out to OPI's Your Royal Shineness, as it brushes on very easily, dries really quickly and isn't too glittery (as opposed to many of the other brands, in my opinion) - it's kind of like aluminum paper coated on your nails. Neat!
The only downside is that you can't buy it separately, and are sort of obliged to buy it together with OPI's Servin' Up Silver, which is basically a clear glitter coating. Not really my cuppa'.
But, other than that: rrrrauwtch!
