Delicate Laces To Strong Sophistication

After looking at the darker daring side of fashion, I think a delicate and softer view is in order. Balance is important, after all. And on that extreme let’s begin with Chanel’s 2008 Spring Look. I adore how heavenly this dress just floats in the back and rises playfully in the front. The lace just melts and yet somehow with the many layers- it looks seemingly weightless. The delicate peachy pink bow and flower crown further announces the femininity.

Then there is the line in between- light spring colors battling winters black and other darker hues. Yves Saint Laurent combined both for this ultimate sophisticated and bold look. The contrast with the distinct lines are feminine, daring- and dark without being grim. The light colors keep it fresh and great for the season.

A thick black waist cinching belt has always been a love of mine, and with the expansion into the dress it is a beautiful flow and complete look.

Keep it fresh, make it light, make it dark, or simply dive into both. Make it your own and hold true to your look.

Bunnies Over Tokyo Fashion Week

Runway fashion at its most exotic and eccentric can be found during Tokyo Fashion Week. Bunnies and Rabbit ears on the girls is just the start. Designer Naoto Hirooka -or H. Naoto to the fashion world, has style that simply cannot go unnoticed.

Anywhere from Gothic Lolita, I must admit a fondness that I have for it, to the punkier styles, H. Naoto’s creativity soars. There is no fear to be playful and I love to see the mark pushed further from up and coming designers.

Viktor & Rolf won my heart with their twists on style design, and quite similarly has H. Naoto in such respect.

His dark and interesting designs have even given Hello Kitty a bit of a makeover- dressed and styled to fit the line.
