Casual Living Can Be Contagious

Stella McCartney Fall 2010 RTW

I'v always been a fan of Stella. Her newest collection was just perfect. Very minimal, simple, and chic. I loved the charcoal tones, narrow tailoring on the trousers, pointy kitten heels, and especially the hem lines, lots of leg! I like the organza overlays (like at Givenchy) over sequined and nude embroidered dresses. A great collection overall. Enjoy!

Yves Saint Laurent Fall 2010 RTW

I'm not quite sure how I feel about Stefano Pilati's fall collection for YSL. It was a very somber look with lots of black and long gloves, something I'd wear to church. Also, he showed some crazy head and neck pieces that looked like they came out of sister act, with high white collars and nun habit head coverings. There were some really nice looks thought, and great texture. I love the accessories though. Oversize floppy hats, chunky platforms, heels with some sort of mohawk on the back, and ghetto gold silhouette necklaces. I'm not sure if I'm a convert but I will pay my respects to the church of Saint Laurent Here are my fave looks.

Celine Fall 2010 RTW

I for one am glad Pheobe Philo is back. I loved her at Chloe and her latest collection for Celine was divine. Very modern with funnel-necked coats and dresses. I loved her use of texture and leather a complete reinvention of the label. Everything was very simple and minimal focusing on the silhouette rather than the clothes. She showed some expertly tailored pants,A line skirts, and jackets. I love this futuristic theme that seems to have taken over Paris Fashion week.

Givenchy Fall 2010 RTW

A mix between ski and scuba is what Riccardo Tisci's fall collection for Givenchy looked like. Snowflake knits and neoprene fabrics that opened like ski salopettes all contributed to a modern silhouette. Tisci showed sharp tailoring and great accessories, like red glitter gloves and textured shoes. Plus his trademark feathers like a white ostrich and organza tee. I'm loving this modern salopette look her at Givenchy and again at Balenciaga, I also llike the apres ski look, I saw it at D&G and now here at Givenchy. So here are my fave looks plus a great video from style.com
