Things that I Love this Week 10/4 - 10/8

This week has been a really long week! Glad that today is Friday!!! To bad I don't have a 3 day weekend like most of the American workers for Colombus Day. All well. I hope everyone has a great weekend and had a fantastic week!

Things that I Love this Week 10/4 - 10/8

1. Alexander McQueen lives on!

Sarah Burton has taken over the Alexander McQueen line and debuted her work on October 5 at Paris Fashion Week. This Spring 2011 speaks volumes. Her and McQueen's vision was a match made in heaven. The fashion world and those who love fashion should be thankfully that there is someone like Burton who could continue on with McQueen's work and legacy. You can read my full blog on his collection here.



2. Zara Court Shoe with Laces I bought these shoes from Zara this past week for a wedding that I have to go to this weekend. I couldn't wait to wear these shoes so I wore them twice. Everytime I buy something new I have to wear it right away. I hate waiting, it's so bad. But I figured with shoes you have to break them in anyway so why not break them in before the day I actually bought them for. The good news is that these shoes are super comfy and so pretty. I can not wait to get all dressed up tomorrow with these shoes and a new H&M dress that I bought a couple of weeks back just for the wedding.


3. Mulberry for Target

Mark your calenders Sunday is the offical day Mulberry for Target hits stores. I love that Mulberry has teamed up with Target to create an affordable handbag line! Just in time when I'm in the search for a new winter bag. You can view the lookbook here.


DISAPPOINTMENT OF THE WEEK: MIU MIU SPRING 2011

Miuccia Prada what were you thinking? This collection to me was a total disappointment. The jackets to the dresses were just a disaster. Nothing was body flattern and the patterns and the color blocking was just awful. Even on the skinniest model the dresses made them look much wider. What would it look on a normal sized woman? We would look like a line backer for a football team! The only thing that I liked about this collection were the shoes and simple blue silk dress (#11). In typical Miu Miu fashion the shoes were fun and fashion forward. Mixing oxford styles with heels and buckle ankles. What happen Miuccia? Miu Miu's Fall 2010 was great and then this? UGH.

  1. Very cute bag! I can totally see myself toting that around.

    It's so sad that Alexander McQueen passed. He was an artistic genius. That dress in your picture just sums up his unique and creative career. I love how his clothes is like art.
