Menswear Inspired-Celine Fall 2012 RTW

I thoroughly enjoyed the tailoring, structure and menswear influence in the Celine RTW collection for Fall.  Clean lines and proper tailoring always catch my eye and are, in my opinion, essential during every season, but even more so in the fall.   There is nothing more pleasing visually than a completely "put together" man or woman.  This line is both classic and trendy.


I do not particularly believe that complete looks from this collection would look great on every body type but by taking certain pieces from the collection and pairing them with complementary items will work for anyone.  For example, the white skit above would look good on a woman with a curvy bottom but the top will make the hips appear wider.  By pairing a fitted top to enhance the waist, the bottom is....showcased rather than being....exploited.  No one wants to be exploited! :)

I've been gone for a little while but....I'M BACK!!

Had a glorious morning and to add to the beautiful morning....I saw this Dolce&Gabbanna dress in my email and....I want it!!
