Christmas... It is time to do your list to Santa Claus !

Today, instead of publishing a traditional article, I would like to share with you some luxurious items and must-have that every fashion lover wish and has to have in their closet :)

About the jackets, and because it is very cold outside; I made a selection of my favorite pieces for the season... The first one is a beautiful jacket from Burberry Prorsum and the second one is a second skin leather jacket from Rick Owens




For the shoes, I am personally a real fan of wedges because of the design but more than this, because it is fashion and also comfortable! This season, I was very impressed by ACNE wedges (first picture) and as you can imagine, Rick Owens is also creating beautiful pieces (second picture)...


 Concerning the accessories, you need a nice hat, beautiful gloves, a scarf and the last but not the least... a stunning bag !


This hat comes from Asos www.asos.com and gives a a dark and couture touch to your outfit

This is an amazing wool reptile scarf from Stella McCartney that you can purchase in the store or online here : http://www.boutiques.com/lunr.py?type=root.accessories.scarves 



Ann Demeulemester beautiful long leather gloves at http://www.farfetch.com/shopping/women/item10060051.aspx



Proenza Schouler python silver-toned metal bag. A must-have for this season. This one is also available in leather and in various colors.

Childhood influence and Psychedelic Creations.

Jean-Charles de Castelbajac is a famous french designer born in 1949 in Casablanca, Morocco. His creations are influenced by his childhood. He uses many colors and cartoons to create original and unique pieces.He is a real child in an adult body, a fabulous creator.
Jean-Charles de Castelbajac has collaborated with famous artists like Lady Gaga or Kanye West and he has also worked with designers like Kenzo or also the sensual underwears' designer: Chantal Thomass.



The colors of this fabulous collection made me think about a famous photograph and video/ commercial/ film director known for his imaginary and his unique, sexual and psychedelic universe: David Lachapelle. This artist was born in 1963 in Connecticut and became famous for his audacious and surreal photographs. His muse, Amanda Lepore, a famous transexual is a real source of inspiration for this artist...

Oscar De La Renta and the Marvelous Women's World

Oscar De La Renta is one of the most famous fashion designer in the world. Oscar Aristides Renta Fiallo was born in 1932 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. He studied painting in Madrid and became interesting in fashion. He worked with Cristobal Balenciaga and Lanvin (two exceptional fashion creators.) In 1965, he launched his own label and begun to create those fabulous art pieces that can transform women in princesses. The real elegance and feminity.





Between delicacy and sensual delight, Oscar De La Renta's spring 2011 collection, makes me think of a fabulous exhibition in The Museum of the City of New York: "Notorious and Notable: 20th Century Women of Style."When I pushed the door of the museum, it was for me more than an exhibition; it was a real universe, a rare and unique one. This exhibition highlights women who used their style and elegance to keep the attention on them. You will discover beautiful dresses and also jewelry with a specific explication of these pieces under all of them... it was my moment, my fashion Wonderland, and I really encourage you to discover it.

The Object of Desire

Also known as the magician, Christian Louboutin is the famous footwear designer who made shoes as a real object of desire. With red soles as his signature, these shoes became a real fashionable and luxurious object that can change every outfit as an "haute-couture" silhouette. Since his childhood, Christian Louboutin known that he had a real passion for sensuality. He said that "the showgirls influenced him a lot". For him, "if you like high heels, it's really the ultimate high heel-it's all about the legs, how they carry themselves, the embellishment of the body.They are the ultimate icons." This is his point of view and the starting point of my passion for shoes.








I can not talk about my passion for shoes without talking about its origins. When I was young, like all the little girls, I loved "Barbie", and Christian Louboutin is not called the "magician" for no reason. He has understood everything about us, about women. From where and from when have we got this passion for clothes accessories and so on? Girls, you all have the answer and that is why I want to highlight his collaboration to this unexpected in a way, but also evident event: "Christian Louboutin for Barbie".
Enjoy...

The Prince(ss) of Darkness

To start my blog, I want to present you two of my favorite artists.

The first one is Rick Owens, the famous and mysterious designer who perfectly switch between simplicity, minimalism and insolence. He is an American fashion designer, known for his subversive eyes, "black atmosphere", minimalist creations and architectural structures. He lives in Paris and creates his incredible collections from there.
One of my favorite designers because of his "avant-garde" point of view in fashion. He follows his own way to create without "plagiarism", I mean that his creations belong only to one an only catwalk.




The second one, Zineb Andress Arraki, is a young architect who is passionated by photography. She offers us different themes, but always with a same idea and a dark atmosphere. She is a Moroccan girl who studied architecture in Paris, France . She graduated in 2008. I personally think that this artist is certainly on her way for a lightning success; a diamond on the pure state.
