I felt that his inspiration for this collection was based from Persian and Indian traditional clothing but somehow it was also mixed with modern designs. Take a look for yourself and tell me what you think about it. Here are my favorite pieces out of the collection:

Valentino – Spring 2013 Couture

Below you will find my favorite pieces from the collection, but by far what I love the most were the cape dresses, I also loved the pipping and detailing on the white dresses. I have mentioned yesterday about how capes are this season’s “it” piece, here is another designer that included capes in his collection, so keep an eye on them when shopping. Enjoy!

I liked Zuhair Murad’s collection due to it’s limited pallet as well as the detailing on the dresses.

Below are my favorite looks from the Zuhair Murad Spring 2013 Couture collection. Enjoy!

Daily Obsessions

I saw this Stella McCartney coat and its such a statement piece. The ability to change the look of the coat by either opening the coat or zipping it up adds so much to the appeal of the coat.

Statement Piece

I just received this in an email from Begrdorf Goodman I am just speechless, this creation is beautiful in every single way. I can just imagine a woman wearing this dress to a black tie gala while summering in Southern Italy, everyone spots her with the corner of their eyes, trying to go back to what they were doing. But there is one thing, they can’t! They watch her as she descends the stairs, waiting to see who her date is.

I just saw this Balmain coat and I can’t get over it. The color of the coat is eye catching as well as the print on it, it gives the wearer a certain mystery .

Pre-Fall 2013 -Donna Karan

Donna Karan does what Donna Karan does best, she offers simplicity in her clothing with sharp lines and edges. This collection somehow reminds me of Armani’s design aesthetic as well due to the clean crisp lines. I hope you enjoy it, here are my favorite pieces from the collection.
