haute looks from the cannes opening ceremony

The 2012 Cannes Film Festival Opening Ceremony took place yesterday at the Palais des Festivals. 

Oh, how I adore when the arts collide. There is nothing more spectacular than movie starlets in couture gowns.

Just gorgeous! Gotta love a Marchesa gown!

I love pockets!

 

editorial stills of the day: kristen stewart for elle (june 2012)

Truth be told, I am kind of digging these stills of Bella (oops, I meant Kristen Stewart). She finally looks like she has style or maybe the credit should go to the talented Joe Zee for styling her and Tim Munro for capturing her beauty.

bloggers got style too! (May 6-May 13)

Sorry for the delay! It's a busy time for me. Wedding planning at an all time high, two of my favorite pretty boys getting married, and our 30th bday! Geesh! So much!

With no more delay, here are my favorites looks from my fellow bloggers:

The Baby Shopaholic

Romper and Straw Hat

Tulip Skirt and Link Necklace

a closer look: chanel resort 2013

Karl Lagerfeld spent a lot of time designing and planning the perfect presentation for the Chanel Resort Collection 2013. Well time passed and the anticipation built for roughly 12 months. Then, finally, the collection made its grand debut at the legendary Versailles. How befitting! A glamorous location for a haute collection. 

Some highlights of the collection:

a closer look: met gala 2012 looks by designers

Last night was the 2012 Met Gala, a chance for everyone whose haute to showcase their fashion sense. You can go anywhere today and find who made the haute list and who made the not so haute list. So I thought I would be different and give you looks grouped by designers. BTW.....my favorites for the night were Beyonce, Dianna Agron, Solange, Amy Adams, Debra Messing, Nina Dobrev, Carey Mullingan, Jessica Alba, and haute couple, Jessica and Justin. I have a secret crush on Kruger's purple Prada gown. It looks so comfy. Two of the worst looks of the night for me were Kirsten Dunst and Kristen Stewart. I was very disappointed with Heidi Klum, Eva Mendes and Elizabeth  Banks' picks. And why does Mary Kate look so gloomy? Truthfully, I dont know how I feel about Florence Welch's McQueen gown, but I do love and appreciate the artistry behind it. BTW....worst hair went to Cameron Diaz and Tom Brady who were both inspired by her cult hit, Something About Mary!
