Valentino S/S12 Campaign

Valentino S/S 2012...

.................................................................

... There have been so many weddings  going on around me, or people getting engaged etc etc...

 And if you're a girl, and this is the case, you can't help but think about your "big day"...

One of the biggest being The Dress. Now Vera Wang has always been the wedding classic... however I was pleasantly surprised at the new Spring/Summer 12 Valentino collection, and have decided that I would love to have a dress that encompasses all of the elements, colours and unique little bits in this range.

Firstly, when set against a landscape of a terribly secret-garden-esque romantic ruin, it is easy to get sucked into the dreamy splendor of these garments... 

The rustic charm of the neutrals, beiges, blacks and creams are right up my alley... and when paired with the softness of a floral print, or the vintage - romantic-ness of lace or anglaise detailing, you cannot but sigh and love this range with all your little heart!!

Enjoy the pics below, and share the <3

Red Valentino - Fall 2012

Red Valentino Fall 2012...

...................................................

... is OH-SO-amazing!!

Red Valentino is by far one my my fav labels... for those of you who don't know,
Red ( which stand for Romantic Eccentric Dress ... as well as being the company's almost trademark colour ) is in fact the sister brand for Valentino, and was started up in 2004.

Red Valentino is all about maintaining the sophistication of Valentino, but with more of an injection of contemporary lines and playful silhouettes! When I look at this I immediately think: Gossip Girl!

And that brings us to the Red Valentino's Fall 2012 range.

Colours maintain classic and almost vintage, from crushed pinks to whites, creams and stark blacks. Silhouettes include innocent ideas with little knee-high socks, beautiful capes and jackets and gorgeously to-die-for evening party dresses...

This entire range holds so much character and class,
I adore each and every piece...

Take a look at the campaign pics below and spread the Valentino love!!

Elle Fanning - For Teen Vogue

Only 13 Years Old...

.............................................

And already Elle is making waves in every

fashion-orientated editorial around the world!

I've even mentioned her and her sis in my blog before:

Talking about the August 2011 "The Age Issue" of Vogue,

she appears with her sister, Dakota, in a startlingly memorizing pic!

(see it here!)

So in Feb of 2012, Teen Vogue readers got to see her timeless beauty

grace the cover of this mag... 

It is well known that the Fanning Sisters  are very fashion

forward, and in this fashion shoot alone she wears

big names such Marc by Marc Jacobs, 

Valentino, 

Louis Vuitton,

Prada...

and others.

Wow, and she's only thirteen... Lucky doll!

Her and her sister seem to encompass this timeless look and feel,

and since they both radiate a sense of maturity and 

class beyond their years and it is always

surprising to remember just how young they both are... Her sis has only just turned 18!

Not only is Elle a pretty little girl, she's one heck of a good actress aswell,

Her role as Alice in Super 8 was remarkable,

definitely a movie I recommend you watch asap... it was simply brill!

So take a look at the snaps of Elle below for her Vogue shoot

and keep an eye out for her and her sis, great things are surely on their way
