Mr. Karl Lagerfeld

Karl Lagerfeld's Spring 2009 Ready To Wear Collection was eclectic, innovative, and timeless. How is it possible to be all three? Well take a look for yourself. From the very first piece, the black belt which is so eclectic and frankly, I'd wear it with a lot of other things too!. Continuing on the first piece, the arm pieces, I dare not call them gloves, are suppose to give the look of a tattoo end up actually working in that they are innovative. Let's not forget the ankle accessories either. The fitted sheath dress is a definite time piece and goes without further explanation. You do indeed get the feeling that the models themselves are channeling Karl Lagerfeld. Clean crisp lines. Right down to the grey gown he presents. It's Karl at his bad boy best. No wonder all us good girls love him!

Spring 2009 Ready To Wear

Oh, I am so spoiled...I feel like a child who is demanding that Karl Lagerfeld be allowed to design for no less than eternity! That's not ass-kissing either. He is in my book as the undisputed heavyweight champ! The Don of Dapper. He has put the Femme in my Fatle forever. If he's not the best, he's one of the best.

Chanel

Chanel Collection for Spring 2009 are classic, innovative, and up-to-date. I would say Chanel did it again, but then we all knew the line never disappoints. Luv the use of the two-toned hosiery and the hanging jewelry that is used to accent the pieces.

When I saw this necklace I did one of those short breaths that you do when you see anything that takes your breath away. It's a 18kt yellow gold and brown diamond necklace. Total carat weight 1,44.

This blouse is kind of deceptive because when you look at it on a mannequin you think, "I'll Pass." But closer examination, and a try on makes you glad that you gave this little blouse a second look!

Ann Demeulemeester

Now if you like to skate on the feminine side of different, then you'll like this collection by Ann Demeulemeester. Her "different" white pieces were definitely wearable. The entire collection was one of the good surprises of the season!

A.F. Vandevorst

An Vandevorst and Filip Arickx Spring 2009 showing was nothing less than memorable. (A.F. Vandervorst) It had strings of brilliance scattered throughout it. The feminine influence was on display. I think they can be proud of their showing overall. The sexy sleeves with extended cuffs on their white blouse was simply outstanding. I loved the beading on a grey dress with a tiny grey ribbon for a belt. Simple elegance.

Pay attention to gloves this season. Most of them are much longer at the wrist. Of course they are coming in all different colors. With the Jackets and Coats having shorter sleeves, we need longer gloves to make up the difference. I thought these gloves by Miu Miu were cute.

I was really surprised when I saw this sweater coat from Anthropologie. It has a tailored look and it is so sophisticated. I envision wearing it over some wide legged pants, with some super skinny legged jeans or even with a little pencil skirt.

I respect the rights of all animals (that being said) Marc Jacobs created this absolutely beautiful handbag. For the price, I would definitely demand the quality workmanship that went into this bag!

I tried to resist these red shoes by none other than Christian Louboutin. I don't know if it was the detailing on the buckle or the way the leather is draped over your foot leading to the buckle. Or maybe it's the way he gathered the shoe at the bottom which leads to the draping effect. Whatever it is I'm hopelessly in love with this shoe!

When I saw this coat by Aqcuascutum I thought, "Well I'll give it an "A" for originality. It was the color that just reached out to me though.
