Get the Look- Miranda Kerr loves Frame Denim

Get the Look: Miranda Kerr loves Frame Denim
JustJared
There isn't a single person in fashion who hasn't written, blogged, tweeted or somehow expressed their fascination for Miranda Kerr's personal style during the last few weeks. The Victoria Secret's angel has been rocking everything from edgy biker jackets and fashion forward skirts to relaxed double denim looks and comfy flats.
Just yesterday, the model took to the streets of New York in one of my favourite looks so far. She paired her signature nude pumps and grey Isabel Marant coat with a super chic pair of Frame Denim skinny jeans. Being the trend setter that she is, Miranda is one of the first to wear this new denim brand, which recently launched on Net-a-Porter and has quickly gained the favour of style references like Dree Hemingway, Anja Rubik or Lara Stone. You can buy Miranda's dark blue jeans here and have a look at the rest of Frame Denim's line here.
Kerr finished off her look with her favourite Miu Miu sunglasses and one of the embroidered Prada bags of the season.

What do you think of Miranda's look?

Best Dressed of the Weekend- Stella McCartney steals the show

Best Dressed of the Weekend: Stella McCartney steals the show

Even though Coachella kicked off this weekend I am not impressed so far with anyone's outfits – least of all Kate Bosworth's, who got it so wrong in a pair of wellies.
Gratefully, Dree Hemingway made an appearance at the Mulberry party to save the day looking absolutely awesome in a Dolce & Gabbana number that, despite what it might sound like, was as apt as it gets for a festival like this. It would have just been perfect for her to wear this to a Red Hot Chilli Peppers' concert, no? (I know, I'm too funny).
Meanwhile, back in LA Paul McCartney threw a party to celebrate the launch of his latest music video and, of course, everyone wore Stella to the event.
Gwen Stefani is probably my favourite. I loved her look of a sort of merged together tuxedo trousers, corset top and a peplum detail. Never a see-through outfit was so classy and cool. Simply fabulous.
Miranda Kerr was also amongst the most stylish attendees. She went for one of the SS12 McCartney dresses that have been so popular already but she chose a black version. I just love this because being monocolour makes the details of the different textures a lot more subtle and the mesh really stands out. It was a simple killer look!

Best Dressed of the Weekend- The former and new queens of Boho Chic

Best Dressed of the Weekend: The former and new queens of Boho Chic
JustJared
This weekend it was super easy to put the Best Dressed of the Weekend together. I knew even if it was just for one of this ladies I would make the post. Everyone seems to be making more of an effort now that it's winter and so here we have three very different but successful ways of looking great this season.
1. Florence Welch, the new queen of Boho Chic. I can't get over how good this look it. Florence wore this to her little studio appearance at BBC Radio 1 earlier this weekend. I love the navy and maroon colour palette. She's done such a great job balancing the colourful paisley print of the maxi dress with a more muted coat and fedora hat. I love the texture that the black suede boots add and the pop of colour of the bag. Kudos to her.
2. Miranda Kerr. Her look is a bit mid-seasonal but I love it. I guess New Yorkers can still get away with this. You can never go wrong with a breton stripe top, khaki trousers and a biker leather jacket. You throw a classic Céline bag into the equation and success!
3. Mary-Kate Olsen, the old queen of Boho Chic. I guess she's not over the style that she made famous and that made her famous. She looks great (not as skinny, which is good) and I am loving this rockstar look she's got going on. The boots are a big hit!

My favourite October 2011 covers
Octobercovers11
TFS
They say 'never judge a book by its cover' but I've never been keen on clichés. With a magazine it's exactly the cover that makes you decide whether to buy it. To me, it's about choosing a great picture that captures the most interesting piece inside.It's not about having every single story's title is on the cover. It really puts me off. So this month I've chosen my six favourite covers from the October 2011 issues.

My favourite is Harper's Bazaar Australia with Miranda Kerr. I love the pose and the styling. And I really like the different fonts and colours that make all the text work. I would say it' one of the best covers anyone's ever done in months.
I also really liked the Harper Bazaar Turkey cover with Lily Cole. The white dress with the metallic collar and the movement of the skirt read so well on the picture. The contrast with the brick on the back and the layout of text are great.
I was chuffed to find Elizabeth Olsen on the cover of Nylon. I feel like they're a perfect fit for each other. Though I do wish to see Elizabeth in high fashion mag covers soon.
Even though I'm not a fan of Tavi, I love the L'Officiel cover. I love the styling and the fact that a teenager is covering their 90th anniversary issue. It's kind of funny.
The Giambattista Valli peplum skirt is another cover hit. Even more so on Kristen Dunst. I just find it's a great cover to ease people into the FW11 collections.
And I loved Vogue Turkey because it shot FW11 LV in a non-boring way. No more navy and grey backgrounds to go with it, please.

CFDA Awards’11- The revenge of the Americans
CFDAawards2011
The fashion at the CFDA awards is never ad grand as that of the Met Ball but it's so interesting to see which American designers models and celebrities wear to the event. Last night we saw the usual pretty but plain Calvin Kleins and Michael Kors but also a handful of very stylish and even edgy looks made in America.
My two absolute favourites were Jessica Alba in a custom-made Diane von Furstemberg and Kristen Dunst in Patrick Ervell. I loved Jessica because the colours are very seasonal, the sort of pregnant take on the wrap dress represents the designer and the accessorising adds just the right amount of bling. And Dunst I loved because it was completely unexpected. We've seen so much Chanel with the hair down that we almost forgot what she's capable of. The matching of the nail polish colour and the velvet lapels was exquisite. I was also very keen on the (chavy?) detail of the loops. I can't say why but it works!
Second and third on my list are Miranda Kerr, who I used to hate, in Michael Kors and Karolina Kurkova in a green sequinned Diane von Furstemberg. They were both simple but the side-slit and golden cuffs on Kerr and the hood and Louboutins on Karolina really made them stand out.
The big disappointment of the night were the Olsens, mostly in The Row with a dash of Chanel, LV and Manolos. Ashley's granny look was messy and felt cheap and MK, the better of the two, got the colours and proportions wrong. The only good thing were they The Row bags, which were premiered then. A little Victoria Beckham, no?

TITLEMET2011
MG1
It has been an intense weekend for the fashion world. First it was the Royal Wedding on Friday and last night the fashion equivalent of the Oscars (or the red carpet anyway), the Met Gala, took over New York City. This year they celebrated the opening of the "Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty" exhibition.
This year I expected a lot of dramatic gowns with big trains and also a lot of feathers. And I was right to do so, at least the first part. Despite Daphne Guiness' big feather McQueen number (she always looks so great it's hard to be surprised anymore) and Sarah Jessica Parker's chic number also by the designer I would have to say it was Giselle Bünchen who wore the brand best. The tight body and pleated big skirt made this a moment we hadn't seen since the old Valentino days.
My other favourite was Diane Kruger in Jason Wu. She is one of the chicest women in Hollywood and it's a pleasure to see her wearing something that's not white or Chanel. The embellished top made jewellery unnecessary and the mad side slit on the skirt adds a sexy edge balanced by the long sleeves.

Funnily enough, it is at these kinds of events that fashion insiders get less attention because of all of the celebrity attendees. That is why it's hard to even find nice pictures of them to post.
Lily Donaldson, in Erdem, and Mariacarla Boscono, in Givenchy HC, looked ravishing. I always say no one can compete with a model in terms of fashion. I love the fact that they know how much see-through they can get away with and they take advantage of that. Lily looked very classy in the navy lace, a perfect look to go with her new marital status. And Mariacarla channeled Morticia Adams for the hair and make-up adding that big of Goth that Tisci loves in his clothes.
Giovanna Battaglia, NYC's newest neighbour, wore Marni to accompany Consuelo Castiglioni. I am in awe of this glamourous 60's look. You know I adore both her and the brand and every time the two get mixed they achieve perfection.

I don't care what people say about Anna Wintour, I think she's got great taste. Year after year she slips and yet another incredible Chanel HC dress, which is what she deserves to wear. I found this year's number quite cool for Anna, though. The colours and the art deco feel of the sequins made it a youthful look that really suited her. And I loved the fact that she added diamonds into the mix anyway.
I might've not liked Blake Lively's Chanel as much if I hadn't been bracing myself for a big disappointment. I have to admit she looked stunning and must've made Kaiser Karl very proud. I still haven't seen her carrying one of those fugly Mademoiselle handbags she advertises, though.
I guess people just invite Thandie Newton because she always looks great. I absolutely loved the way her Stella McCartney dress played with the sheerness of the pleated skirt, the black lace and the nude touch of the underskirt.

Less dramatic or surprising but beautiful nonetheless were Gwyneth Paltrow, in a bejewelled Stella McCartney, Miranda Kerr in Marchesa and Zoe Saldana in Calvin Klein Collection.
I am especially shocked by how much into Miranda's look I am. There is something so obviously Black Swan about the dress (Mila Kunis would've looked amazing in this) but the fact that she wore the Nicholas Kirkwood lace-ups makes everything interesting. It's the red carpet equivalent of someone wearing a tutu skirt with converse, just genius!
