A Style To Admire: Christine Centenera

Christine Centenera, Australian Harper's Bazaar fashion editor, is also a celebrity stylist, street style icon and a great fashion mind behind Kanye West's new clothing line. This pretty Aussie has it all: a job millions would kill for, amazing style and the enviable collection of shoes. Often dressed in Hermes, Burberry, Celine and the rest of high class brand names, but at the same time wearing them in her own uncopiable way with a futuristic touch, she leaves us speechless with every appearance.

She is unfairly put on the sidelines of fashion scene while much less stylish people dictate what's in & what's out.

This outfit made her world-famous

Christine is not intimidated by matching oversized clothes with statement shoes. It's the opposite - she is in the minority of people who can pull it off! We can often see her in bold outfits: strong shoulder blazers, baroque style, peplum, lace... Controversal see-through fabrics actually look expensive on her which is, you'll agree, a characteristic of perfect style and also a reason to admire her even more.

Balmain strong shoulder blazer + simple denim shorts = perfection!

No one wears Celine pajama pants like this girl!

Crisian McCaffrey Platform Pumps

Nude pumps are definitely shoes every girl should have. In several post we wrote about importance and practical side of investing in quality pair of those.
My favorite at the moment are stunning Crisian McCaffrey platform pumps. They are among my highest heels yet surprisingly as comfortable as beautiful.

Brand itself is becoming more and more popular and many celebrities wearing it last season and they surely deserve it! They come in black & dark blue (which we will review as well) .

The best place to buy them is The Box Boutique, not only because FIMD loves shopping there but because you can find them on 50% discount here and save more than £230.

I am just addicted to them and you'll be seeing me wearing them quite a lot this season.

Xoxo

Louis Vuitton Speedy Damier Ebene

Louis Vuitton Speedy is one of the everlasting classics that despite years of its massive popularity still remains one of "must have" bags.

Personally, I wear it with casual look and when traveling because as it's big enough to hold my "emergency fashion kit" (I am having Speedy 35) .

As inside it has only 1 "pocket" mine is accessorized with Key Pouch because I am one of those girls always looking where here keys are so it's ideal to place small precious things that you definitely don't want to lose.

Key Pouch is easily attached as many of LV bags feature D-rings (shown on some photos bellow) so once you buy one you can wear it with majority of your LV bags.

I'm sure you all saw it thousand times and know how to wear it, but I've decided to share with you one because it is one of my favorite bags and Damier Ebene is my favorite LV print ever.

Girly Footwear: Sneakers

Recently I heard a girl saying that "ladies don't wear sneakers" which is, if you ask me, not quite the best conclusion about what makes us ladies. As for me, being a lady has nothing to do with height of our heels, it's a state of mind, our attitude, poise, grace, good manners and thousands of other things that can't be bought or measured in centimeters.
Don't get me wrong: I adore high heels and they do give us self-confidence and a visually thinner figure, but it's indisputable that a woman can allow herself to slip her feet into something more comfortable and still look and behave in a ladylike way. In fact, I know many ladies who prefer flat footwear over super high stilettos.
So, if you're among those who like wearing comfy & cute sneakers, we made a choice of the most popular ones for you.

Alexander McQueen Obsession

Even besides the extravagance a luxury fashion house Alexander McQueen's creations have, they still respect femininity and glamour in their own way. By designing the clothes that aren't loved by masses and not drowning in a vast sea of uniformity and monotony, they placed the brand on top of the fashion industry in the last ten years. We used to admire Lee Alexander McQueen, the man who created the brand, and now we glorify perspective Sarah Burton who kept the company one of the biggest fashion names even after the tragic death of a fashion giant Alexander.

Christian Louboutin 20th Anniversary Collection

Celebrity Closets

Have you ever wondered how celebrities arrange their clothes and shoes? Have you wished to go through their closets and see how many pairs of Louboutins they have?
If yes, we have a surprise for you: we collected some of the most interesting celebrity closets.

Mariah Carey has a gigantic closet in her 12,000 square foot Manhattan triplex. "I have about 1000 pairs of shoes, but most of them are in storage" says Mariah. Her closet is arranged by color and material, as well as in event-special groupings.

Elie Saab Haute Couture S/S 2012

Elie Saab is a Lebanese fashion couturier adored among A-list celebrities who proudly wear his creations on the red carpet. He is also one of the most significant names in the world of high-quality, most luxurious wedding and evening gowns. When designing a dress, Elie is led by the principle that every woman should feel like a fairy tale princess in his gowns, which he apparently accomplishes with every single design.
His latest Haute Couture spring/summer 2012 collection brings a few surprises: there were shorter dresses with sleeves and high necklines, which is something that we don't usually see when it comes to Saab's designs. In this collection, he celebrated femininity with soft sorbet colors that remind of cotton candy: from baby pink, coral and mint to nude, sky blue and yellow.
