Grrrr....Welcome to the Jungle!

Elle Mexico September 2010

This season designers couldn't resit to animal prints, and especially the big cat print. Leopard prints walked down the catwalks of Dolce&Gabbana, Moschino, Gucci, Salvatore Ferragamo,  Etro,and Mulberry just to name a few. When I saw this editorial from Elle Mexico, I thought it perfectly sumed up how to wear and style them. If you feel that wearing animal prints from head-to-toe is too much, you can always incorporate them in your accesories such as in bags, gloves, and boots. 


Are you wearing animal prints this season?

Better Late than Never: Fall/Winter 2010 Trends

Yes, Fall is definitely here and it will stay for a while, followed by its sibling Winter. And it is never too late to follow trends, right? After all, they always help you out when you are looking for something to buy around stores or when you simply don't have a clue of what to wear in the morning.



Capes, you can't leave the house without one.




Cat prints are all over the runway! Wear them as dresses, coats or even accessories like bags, belts, and pumps.





Don't worry animal lovers, even faux fur counts. Just remember that nothing will keep you warmer and give you that instant glamour as fur does.



Camel is the new black It just goes with everything and looks fabulous on everyone. You'll want to wear it forever.



Shearling jacket, one word: must-have. Look at Burberry's shearling jackets in shades of khakis and chocolates and you'll never go wrong. Give it a twist and wear yours with a party dress.





Knits are the perfect piece to have in your closet. During fall wear them while the temperate is still slightly warm. During Winter they'll be a must for your layered look.



Menswear inspired suits are the key.





As Coco Chanel said "Always take something off before leaving the house". One thing to keep in mind is that  less is more. Simplicity and luxury combined give the best effect.



This Fall color, color, and more color won't hurt because that is what it is all about! And the way to wear it, very simple: from head-to-toe.


It's all about curves and a touch of femininity and vintage.


Note: Don't feel as though you need to follow trends just because you see them all over fashion magazines and fashion blogs. Follow them because you like them or want to experiment and play with something new. Most importantly don't wear a total look, you wouldn't want to look like a picture of style.com would you?

Saturday Outfit: Trench Love

Happy Saturday to everyone!!! I hope you are all enjoying your weekend so far.


Trench coats are a statement piece. They can be easily worn with almost anything and they can change an outfit from being plain and boring to casual and chic. In this season's catwalks trench coats have been a protagonist in many designers's collections. Just to name a few Burberry Prorsum, one of my personal favorites, Loewe, Chloé, Dior, Marc by Marc Jacobs, and Jean Paul Gaultier.
Believe me, although you might think "Why would I need a trench coat when it's 40ºC outside?", trench coats can come really handy when you're spending an evening at the beach and it's a bit windy. They can also become your best friends wehn it's pouring rain outside just like this:

Alexa Chung. This women definitely knowns how to pull off every look.

Saturday Outfit: Going Tribal

There was a strong tribal influence in the catwalks this season. Even though spring has already come, I'm not really convinced weather I like this trend or not. I do feel is something new and I should give it a try so today I decided to have a tribal inspired outfit for this week's Saturday Outfit. If some of you are still unsure weather to follow this trend or not, even if it's not your style give it a try. It's the only way to see if you like it or not. After all, it's always refreshing to try new things.


The editorial from Vogue France November 2009 has been my inspiration for this week's Saturday Outfit. I think the model, Isabelli Fontana played a fantastic role in this photo shoot and the makeup really emphasizes that tribal spirit.
