Bazaar Report aw08 - Part 2

I'm really glad that many of you have enjoyed reading this Bazaar Report. Therefore, ready, steady, Part 2!

Long & Narrow can create a timeless evening look! Look at this sensual Bottega Veneta below! Together with a loose hair bun and a statement bangle, I will put on some 1930s elegant gowns in rich luminous ink colour! I'm thinking about deep purple or navy in silk satin - the sexy lighting will reflect on your amazing dress and create that speechless silhouette! Of course, I need to fix a serious date first....

Plaid & Tartan can create such a quirky and uplifting look! You only need to invest an signature piece that will last for years! I personally really love the Vivienne Westwood's creative blazers and Balmain's slick look.

Lace is probably one of the most romantic trends this season and it is my all time favourite! It can make even the simplest dress shine and feminine instantly! Oh my, that Prada dress is to die for!

Photobucket

I have never been so creative on colour, but I will surely give a try this fall! I will start with mustard yellow! I love to team it with olive green, various tones of grey and petrol blue!

Photobucket

Sleepy Hollow is soooo daring! It needs a good look in front of the mirror before going out to make sure "I'm fierce and stylish, not scary"! However, I may get some long chains and gorgeous blouses to start with. That Alexander McQueen below has just stole my heart...

I love hood for casual day look, but it may not be the easiest cloth for night! Unless you match really well, it may give a more sporty look than it is shown on the runway...

Those tall boots are hot. I'm so stressed because I've somehow LOST my thigh-high boots. How could they disappear in my own house??

La Clocharde said...

Great inspiration!!

TINA said...

Love all of them, and I'm really loving the lace. it's so feminine and sophisticated. I also really like the Sleepy Hollow trend - it's definitely daring.

AsianCajuns said...

I love everything plaid and tartan! Unfortunately I can't wear any of it myself - it just doesn't look right. Maybe a plaid scarf this fall wouldn't hurt...

J said...

enjoyed it of course. thanks for sharing hun;)

A La Femme said...

Those Etro thigh boots are amazing. My mouth hit the floor. That's one thing that isn't lacking this fall, is the shoes. Etro, Gucci and YSL definitely take the cake for the most amazing fall shoes!!!

Paris said...

Hello Lovely, ooh good to see more reports and looking forward to seeing what you conjure up from these looks!! I have tagged you!! The info is on my blog my darling!

Ahhh, here's the lace, possibly my favourite, there's a really nice grey lace dress at Topshop, it's only about £45. I also love the long dresses and think this look will look lovely on you, especially how you described wearing it! I'm also happy to see the lovely autumn colours, like leaves that fall from the trees.

I have one question for the fashion world: If hoodies are going to be here for fall, then what are the chavs going to wear?

Char said...

I love the page about lace. I'm a little obsessed with anything vaguely resembling lace. And, those thigh high boots are amazing. Thanks for sharing!

Tricia said...

your sleepy hollow comments are so funny and true! but that long black and gold dress, yum. and i'm sketch on the hoods also, really a tough one. Grace Jones, yes, me no.

Ariella said...

Great report, girlie :)
I love the plaid, and I'm going to try find myself a vintage plaid jacket for autumn.

Btw, could we exchange blog links? That would be great since I love your blog!

hannah said...

Julia said...

oh why can't the US harpers be this well put together in terms of style/layout. I'm pretty excited for fall, I think I'm going to go all black this season.
