Milan fashion week: the incredibles

When fashion comes to Milan I start developing strong cravings for beautiful clothes and accessories hence cannot quite hold myself and stick with just one collection. So this time I picked four... and the shoes... and two bags. Once I placed Marni bracelets on top of everything else, my heart felt satisfied. So here are my picks - clothes that I love and dream of wearing.

Alberta Ferretti


Bottega Veneta

Fendi

Salvatore Ferragamo

Fendi bag, Marni bracelets and clutch (plus Bottega as on photos above)

Madonna for Louis Vuitton Fall-Winter 2009/10

New images created by legendary Steven Meisel for Louis Vuitton campaign look, should I say, different. To me, they are a bit over the top, just like everything about LV, but then again, we are talking about fashion and it has no boundaries and even the sky is doubtfully the limit. What do you think?

P.S. I must admit, I do love those bunny ears from the LV Fall-Winter 2009 collection.

Bottega Veneta - disappearance act

So, yes, we went and saw the Angels & Demons today. Good movie and really is worth watching, especially if you like Dan Browns book, Italy, Tom Hanks or.... BOTTEGA VENETA. Yes, your eyes got it right. This movie is not just about Illuminati, religion and beautiful streets of Rome. It's also about the wardrobe. And I am not talking Tom Hanks - nooooo, too boring for me. I am talking Vittoria Vetra's ones. Particularly, her "pet". I almost jumped when I saw her beautiful black BV (I am guessing here, but I think it was BV Roma bag). And only God knows (and now I told everyone here, so I guess, you know, too) how much I love BV bags. It's my secret obsession and a dream to have one of them. So as the movie continued, she was running around with her bag (and I was getting green with envy) and then the bag disappeared!!! How a woman could lose, forget or leave her bag and carry on without??? Even the queen has a bag almost 24/7 and she does not even leave her house! (and her bags aren't as exciting and yummy as Bottega anyway). This is the only part of the movie I couldn't agree with and would love to know what happened to that bag...
