Floral Dream

Katie Holmes looks amazing in this floral Louis Vuitton dress at Variety magazine's 2nd Annual Power Of Women Luncheon at the Beverly Hills Hotel. I know floral is usually reserved for the warmer seasons but I don't see why you can't in the cooler seasons as Katie has shown here. She's made it season appropriate by wearing the dress with stockings. I love how it can also be worn easily in the summer, all you have to do is ditch the stockings and wear it with summer sandals.

green with envy

As usual Alexa Chung looks amazing. Especially in this military green Burberry Prorsum dress at London Fashion Week. The belt is very cute and I like how she hasn't gone crazy with accessories. Less is definitely more.

My September

September is coming to an end and I've spent most of this month being more over the top fashion obsessed than usual. I bought the September issue of US Vogue which weighed a tonne. It is the biggest mag that I own. I also finally bought and watched "The September Issue" on DVD. I admire Anna Wintour a lot more and it's a definite watch for anyone interested in fashion.

The Science of Fashion

I got the chance to see The Science of Fashion exhibition at Te Manawa (Palmerston North's Museum) today. All the outfits are created from fabrics created by AgResearch. The fabrics are all quite amazing. They have managed to make wool into a lighter and cooler fabric. The outfits are created by the creme de la creme of New Zealand fashion designers; Annah Streton, Cybele, Hailwood, Stitch Ministry, Sera Lilly, twentysevennames and more. My favourite outfit is a black dress by Sera Lilly (pictured just above). If you're in Palmerston North go and check it out. It's free entry and it finishes on the 24th of October.
