NEIMAN MARCUS EDDIE BORGO EVENT HOSTED BY MEREDITH MELLING BURKE












 (Gryphon studded trench, 3.1 Phillip Lim slim stretch canvas pants, Alexander Wang Noemi booties, 3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli satchel, Eddie Borgo overlapping triangle bracelet & large cone bracelet)

First, I would like to congratulate Victoria from This English Rose with winning Jennifer Zeuner Necklace giveaway. Hope you enjoy it!

In other news, Emil and I had the  pleasure of attending Neiman Marcus Eddie Borgo event hosted by Meredith Melling Burke. Since I am a big admirer of Eddie Borgo jewelry, it was absolutely amazing to meet Eddie in person. Charming and charismatic, Eddie draws inspiration for his designs from American costume jewelry, history of Rock and Roll and New York City. 

His SS12 line, is an embodiment of cool elegance with an edge, heavy on geometric shapes in rose, white, yellow and black metals accentuated by colored gemstones. 

My favorite piece from his SS12 collection is a cone bracelet with lavender gemstones, really didn't think it was possible to combine edge and femininity so effortlessly. How about you guys, which one is your favorite?

Special thank you to Lisa Rodman from Neiman Marcus for inviting me, it was an unforgettable experience.
Wishing you all a wonderful week,
Love,
Annabelle

Paris Fashion Week 2012/Lanvin Collection

Lanvin cameo
Trend alert: cameos - the new earrings
It looks as though Lanvin designer Alber Elbaz has been hitting the art history books, as he backs the cameo in a big way. Simon Chilvers approves

Lanvin: FASHION-FRANCE-LANVIN
Alber Elbaz's pre-fall Lanvin collection has a big role for cameos.
The pre-fall 2012 collections are still being unveiled – these are the clothes that will fill the gap on shop floors between the spring/summer catwalk looks and the autumn/winter ones. Note: those autumn/winter ones will be shown on catwalks internationally from next month.

Lanvin: Lanvin: Runway - Paris Fashion Week Womenswear Fall/Winter 2012
With 10 years of service at the Parisian house of Lanvin, Alber Elbaz has unveiled his pre-fall offering and declared the cameo back. His first outfit – a white blouse with black skirt – was duly decorated with a matching monochrome cameo hanging on a silk ribbon. These jewellery details also appeared at the neck of a roomy coat and pinned above the bust of a black sleeveless dress.

Lanvin: FASHION-FRANCE-LANVIN
Earrings have dominated fashion as the headline jewellery statement in recent seasons, but has Elbaz kick-started a pendant/brooch revival? We're not entirely sure but we do love an art reference and cameos are very Manet …

Lady Gaga Hot Fashion Style 2012



I’m loving every single thing about this look crowned with fabulous dramatic sculptural laser cut “Dragonfly” headpiece from Loughborough University (BA in Multi Media textiles) and Central Saint Martins (MA in Design Jewellery) graduate, a rising star in the world of millinery Emma Yeo Fall 2011 collection (you must check-out on Emma’s site).


Sorry I haven’t brought this to you earlier. I spent the entire afternoon yesterday and a big part of the evening in the hospital. I cut my hand so bad I almost lost a finger… The middle one…



Yesterday afternoon Lady Gaga officially launched her Born This Way Foundation. Arriving at Harvard University looking absolutely gorgeous she wore black and oil spill neoprene molded seam flare coat from the age-old tale of good versus evil enfolding Prabal Gurung Fall 2012 “Uncursed” collection.
If you haven’t seen the collection in which Prabal let out both the dark and the light side of himself, head to Vogue (magnifying glass is ready for you!)



Gaga was photographed in Chicago yesterday wearing Rottweiler-Print Jersey Sweatshirt from Givenchy Fall 2011 Menswear collection.
