Remember the little actress Dakota Fanning? You know, the soft spoken one who was, shall I say, the ugly duckling? Never did I know she would we be on my wall and considered a Fashionista. Fanning, now 17, has blossomed into a beautiful girl with a great sense of style. The question is: Would you wear any of it?
As fashionistas we always look forward to what new styles next season's going to bring, by observing current street styles we can easily gather a couple hints of what's to come and these 55 looks can prove it. Where can we find you?
Jason Wu's affordable collection inspired by the idea of "An American Girl in Paris" hits most stores on February 5th. Fifty-three modern and stylish pieces ranging from $19.99 to $59.99 are set to blow your mind.
The accesories, the key pieces, even the ad-campaign and lookbook are fascinating; everything is about style and sophistication- yet every piece is easy to incorporate into a simple and casual outfit. No matter how or what, Wu's signature clean lines and smart details are present, making every every piece almost unique.
If your local Target won't be selling the collection, everything will also be availabe on their website. So, just marvel at it.
At S/S 2012 collection, Valentino showed us the perfect, delicate, grateful looks. Lace, see-though, high neck, flat shoes, tight hair are seemed as the keys of the season. The point of the makeup is eyeline emphasized the corner of the eye which is not too slit but rather thick and shaded off a little. The pictures showed that the impact of the makeup goes with the dresses which are cream color, floret printed completely.
Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2012 Couture was all about beehives, winged black eyeliner, and a fifties flavor- It was all about Amy Winehouse. Every piece spoke of Amy somehow, and was styled to perfection- all the silhouettes were inspired by her unique style and tiny waist, creating this feeling that the only thing missing was Amy herself.
An elite of models accompanied with a bright color palette and asymmetrical necklines created a magical atmosphere. During the finale, the models ‘paraded’ in bright-colored veils (I’m yet to figure out the meaning of this), it was all sexy and, of course, very Gaultier.

Are you loving the tv series PAN-AM? Karl Lagerfeld too. For the Chanel haute couture Karl Lagerfeld has decided to develop his show inside a plane: comfortable seats with electronic numbering, real windows, and charming flight attendants who served champagne to the guest or we should say to the passengers. All clothes represented the colors of the sky, from a sky blue to the dark of the night; the texture of the clothes shifted from classic boucle tweed into glitter-threaded denim to suggest a starry sky, and then into layers of opalescent pebbles that resembled a moonscape. Throughout, the silhouette was lean and curveless, with straight up-and-down dresses whose wide necklines almost matched the width at the hips. Anyway clothes were closer to the pret-a-porter than the haute couture because Karl always wants to astonish us or maybe because in these days he going to lunch his pret-a porter label "Karl".
Many Asian models are widening their spheres in fashion around the world. 19year-old Japanese model, CHIHARU is one of them. After her drastic haircut, CHIHARU began to catch the eyes of many well known designers. Her hair style changed from the usual natural long hair to a more bobbed look making her the next Japanese “it” girl walking the runways along side Japanese top models, AiTominaga and Tao. Eyes with long slits on the outer corners, jet-black hair, and an outstandingly well proportioned body CHIHARU holds us spellbound.
