Prada Spring 2010 campaign

Steven Misel shoot the advertising campaing for the upcoming season for Prada, featuring a young model Rasa Zukauskaite. Well pictures have quite a special spirit, I am still not decided whether I like them or not so much.. But they are interesting, and the shoes - just OMG gorgeous!

Resort 2010 (Part 1: A)

There could be no best time to go on a little vacation then in mid-January or in February - just to escape the crazy cold of the two remaining winter months and make spring come a little bit faster. Specially for this designers from all over the world created for us Resort collections - so that we could easily pick up the necessities we might need for sunbathing or sitting in the cafe in Alpes drinking hot chocolate (you can find something for that too).
But even if you are too busy and can't go on a vacation right now (which is totally understandable - new year, so many new and urgent things to do), you can still look at the beautiful clothes and looks I am about to show you and start dreaming about Spring. And who can say no to our sweet little dreams? :)
So I am happily giving you the best looks for you winter break or a good food for thought about Spring :)

3.1 Phillip Lim

I like the shapes of the skirts, the fabrics, the colors and the lightness all the looks have. Perfect for spring.

ADAM

I like the embellishments on the tops + the necklace and the sporty vibe from the clothes is nice. My favorite look here is the last - the one with the long yellow skirt.

Akris

LOVE the suits! Those sleeves are so yummy :) The first look is perfect for a hot day in the office, love it. The dress is very nice, I am curious about the print, it must look like fire when in motion.

Alberta Ferretti

This collection is more for those of us who had to stay in the city and work - nice comfortable looks for office (1,2) or a cocktail with friends in the evening (3,5). The 4th dress is divine, someone should wear it to the red carpet!

Alexander McQueen

I really like the colors here, especially I like the 2nd look - blue&white dress and blue boots - stunning! Geometric cuts and printed leggings are interesting and risky to wear, would you dare? :)

Alexander Wang

Alexander Wang's girl is not cool - she's super cool. Sometimes it even looks as if she doesn't give a sh*t on what people might think about her look. At all. Well most of the time I can't blame her - his clothes is good and gives you a big choice. These 6 looks were the best for me.

Antonio Berardi

From Antonio's collection I liked the sculptured black dresses, the 1st look is just perfect (love the leather jacket!), and the various sets of short dresses (love the shape, how it hugs around the hips) with scarves (for me scarves here are pretty optional, I think dresses will look fine without them too).

Golden Globe 2010

Yesterday night in Beverly Hills (California) was held the ceremony of Golden Globe 2010. The red carpet was full of celebrities sparkling and shining and looking fantastic. Well, to my mind not too many of them looked that fantastic, but still there were several ladies I was quiete impressed by. In the pictures below I will show you who were best last night and I am looking forward to hear your oppinion!

But first, here are just the most important nominies (and the winners, of course):

Anja Rubik for Fendi Spring 2010

Today I have an unrealistically beautiful and romantic advertising campaing for Fendi featuring charming Anja Rubik. Guys, it's my absolute favorite campaign so far for this spring! Waht is really surprising here for me - the photographer is our uncle Karl! I mean, I've known him as a fan of quite moody b&w photoshoots, but here - it's like if a picture was a sugar candy it would be this Fendi picture, you know ;)
Take a look:

Spring campaigns by YSL and Givenchy

Today I am presenting you to ad campaigns both featuring Natalia Vodianova.
First - Yves Saint Laurent. The pictures are minimalistic, full of sunlight and I would even say heat. I can't say that I love this campaign, but I do like the white blouse with big ruffles, it's amazing! The pictures were taken by photographers Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin.

Second today we have Givenchy campaign featuring not only Natalia, but also Maria Carla Boscono. The authors of these shots are Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. Nice ad, but quite typical. It was interesting to see Natalia with dark hair though :)

Georgia May Jagger For Versace Spring 2010

Here we have fresh from the oven - Versace's new ad campaign featuring Georgia Jagger! The campaign was shot by Mario Testino in London in November 2009.
Donatella Versace said of Georgia: "She’s smart, a strong personality, beautiful, full of energy… and with that natural star quality, I adore her! She’s perfect for this collection - A real Versace girl".
I personally like the campaign, I like its colors and how it is shot (I mean the angles) and I think Georgia fits really good. What do you think?

Chanel Spring 2010 campaign

Shot by Karl Lagerfeld in Buenos Aires (Argentina) and featuring Claudia Schiffer, Freja Beha Erichson and Baptiste Giabiconi this campaing is beautiful and fresh. I like it, it is different for Karl. Enjoy!

Okay ladies and gentlemen,
