Colorful Couture: Dior Fall 2009 Collection

John Galliano has shared with us his genius and showmanship in is Fall 2009 Couture Collection for Christian Dior. In this somewhat depressing economic time, Galliano makes it clear that fashion can be extravagant and reminiscent of times before. He focuses on the staples that have made Dior legendary such as the bar jacket. His play with ultra structured pieces, uber feminine couture undergarments, and dramatic hats are flawless on the runway. I'm in love. The look comes together with heavy makeup reminiscent the 80's. A full face is so in! Who says a bold lip and a heavy eye aren't allowed?!? Gotta love John Galliano and Christian Dior Fall Couture. Here are some of my favorite stills from the show:

Recession Proof Shopping: Forever 21

I love Forever 21! They are the perfect store to update your look without breaking the bank. The trick with stores of this nature is this nature is to stick to the dark and neutral colors (blacks, whites, browns, grays) because these the color of these items give a more expensive look to lower-end fabrics and construction. They have also started, Love 21, the contemporary line that has classic silhouettes and a beautiful, muted color palette. Here are some of my favorite looks:




Fashion First!
