I definitely love Burberry, even more so since its current Creative Director, Christopher Bailey, came aboard!  Burberry Prorsum showed Monday afternoon at London Fashion Week and it was a star studded event with celebrities and the socialites lining the front row.  Onlookers included, but not limited to, Kanye West, the Duchess of Cambridge's sister, Pippa Middleton, and Sienna Miller.  Guest were shown the spring/summer 2012 collection that consisted of bold colors and prints along with some beaded and braided items.  Let me know what you guys think!

What is Beauty?

My friends all know that I am a huge movie buff and can be on Netflix all day, if it were up to me.  I came across a movie, The Adonis Factor, by Christopher Hines that focused on the way that gay men viewed and judged each other just on appearance alone.  I'm not saying that this is not true, but if you got rid of all the labels you would see that, in general, most of society is that way.  Statistics have shown that attractive people make 5% more than there counterparts and another study indicated that babies being held by "unattractive" people cried more than people held by more "attractive" ones.  It has been know that men and women in China have surgical procedures done, by breaking both legs and stretching the bone, where they get taller because height is envied there for economic reasons.

Below I have placed pictures of models from Page.713, out of Houston and Ford Models, in New York, to show different kinds beauty, even though its subjective.  So what do you guys think Beauty is?

Fashion Show Flash Mob

The Simon Now Fashion Show presented by the Cadillac, at the Houston Galleria, was quite an exciting event this year!  The atmosphere of the scene and crowd was terrific as everyone rubbed elbows with each other, while models posed like mannequins in various spots for Tiffany & Co.  The the models donned on amazing outfits from the Fall lines of Neiman Marcus, Carolina Herrera, St. John, Max Mara, and shoes from Jimmy Choo which ended with a Flash Mob on the catwalk!  I was quite excited and didn't know what to do and was totally in love with the older lady dancing in the end of the video!

Voguepedia

Everyone has heard the saying, "Google it."  Well, now you can add, "Voguepedia it," to your list of phrases!  Voguepedia, presented by Michael Kors, is the most amazing idea since the invention of the wheel!  It brings you everything that has ever appeared in Vogue straight to your fingertips.  It also features a search box and links to the most sought after information (ie, designers, models, brands, personalities, and beauty) in a user friendly layout.  My favorite thing about Voguepedia, is that it gives you amazing profiles/bios about your favorite people, like Roberto Cavalli (above).  I know that this will be a huge hit for all of you fashion buffs out there, but an even better asset to you fashion students.  Hit the hyperlink and let me know what you think!
