Lanvin and H&M

 

I die! Obviously any major designer who collaborates with H&M, the merchandise will be at an affordable price. In the past Jimmy Choo has also created pieces for H&M and now it's Lanvin. Shoes will not be the only thing featured!

take a look into my mind

Back on August 11th, 2010, I posted my Top 3 Favorite Looks for this Fall. (Just in case you didn't get a chance to read check it out, here it is! fashiongawker Archive: Come Soon Fall).

Though the look book doesn't consist of my Top 3 Favorite Looks from my previous post, these will be added to make my Top 5 Looks :) 

the RED BLAZER

Red is a hot color not only for Fall 2010, but as a pop of color for any outfit. In the pictures below, the red blazer is paired with an animal print skinny belt along with multiple gold chains to create a fuller look. Though many of us would not go out in just a blazer and undergarments, this added a playful look.

the CLASSIC TRENCH COAT

The Class Trench Coat is a necessity in everyone's closet. Men AND Women. It can be dressed up or dressed down, depending on where you are going and what you plan to wear underneath. In the picture below, wearing the trench coat as a layering piece on a chilly day will keep anyone warm and stylish. Once again, adding a pop of red will add some pizazz to any neutral tone outfit.

 

the NOT SO SECRET SCARF DRESS

If you've been in MKE driving on North Avenue, I'm sure you may have passed this dress in BOUTIQUE REVOLUTION'S WINDOW. Much to your surprise ... it only consists of scarves from FOUND OBJECTS, pinned together to give the illusion of a dress. This isn't your ordinary day to day dress. Pinned and ruffled together to make the fabulous scarf dress.

--Though this isn't a "fall trend," I thought you all would enjoy awesome colors as it gets chilly :)

Nha Khanh

My parents are amazing!! Every time they come across Vietnamese designers, my mom and/or dad call me to share! Today my mom blew up my phone making sure that I wrote down the correct spelling for: Nha Khanh. Definitely go visit their website & check everything out. Very different and amazing work they have accomplished. 

To have an awesome support system for anything in life, one is very grateful.

While surfing the world wide web :] I came across some pretty awesome cardigans, sweaters, etc. by Comme des Garcons Play. Perfect layering item for the fall/winter season. Although not all of us are able to invest in these cute cardigans, you can definitely go anywhere and find an amazing cardigan.
