These are from last Fall but I'm still obsessed with them.

Christopher Kane Galaxy Print
Sometimes you don't realize how amazing something is until you see and feel it in person. While at The Room last week, I finally saw Christopher Kane's galaxy print dresses firsthand and they stopped me dead in my tracks. Gorgeous!

Today I bought: Top Shop Make-Up at Jonathan & Olivia
Stopped by Jonathan & Olivia today to see their new Top Shop make-up bar. I've been a fan of this line since I saw the charming packaging profiled on numerous design blogs a while back. I love the naive illustration style – it feels so right for the TS brand.
I'm happy to report, after testing practically everything there, that the make-up is quite nice and the pigments are rich. I left with a big bag of goodies and will report back after a few longer wears.

Wishing I was wearing Miu Miu Fall 2010 squash dress to Thanksgiving dinner
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Came across the photo of Miuccia and her niece wearing Fall 2010 at the Spring show - notice the banana earrings on Ms. Prada – cute. Forgot how much I love the collection, that specific yellow dress and the campaign that went with it. Here it all is for your enjoyment too.

The Celine Classic Bag
So glad that Phoebe Philo has reintroduced this bag again for Spring 2011 – love the return to clean lines. With bags having been adorned with every logo, stud, "trick" and fur tail over the last few years, it's refreshing to see something so structured, simple and elegant. A truly timeless bag, it seems certain that the Celine "Classic" will join the ranks of the Birkin as a bag you buy and wear forever.

Proenza Schouler Small Leather PS11
Have died and gone to handbag heaven. Doesn't this look like an Hermes Medor clutch and a Celine "Classic" bag got together and had a baby? Pre-ordering the tan version NOW.

Shopping List: Marc Jacobs Handbags for Fall
The "Camille" is from the Marc Jacobs Fall 2010 Collection. I love the beat-up look of the leather – reminds me a little of Marc Marmel's great distressed bags.
The "Sophie" from the Marc by Marc Jacobs line comes in black patent as well – hard choice – they both look so polished. Love that they have a long cross-body strap as well.
P.S. The site only shows a matte leather version currently, so hopefully, the patent actually went into production!

My Fav Looks from Givenchy Fall 2010 Couture
I realize I'm quite late to the party on this subject – but I had to post about it anyways because the collection was so spectacular. The two looks above are the ones I would personally wear if I could, but the whole set of gowns are incredible works of art. See them here.
