In Love With Elie Saab

We love the luxurious Parisian spirit of Elie Saab Autumn/Winter 2009-2010 collection. When you think of Elie Saab you think of fabulous red carpet glamor, a serious couturier that dresses Hollywood in the most beautiful breathtaking gowns. Halle Berry, Heidi Klum, Beyonce, Christina Aguilera and Whitney Houston have be seen wearing fabulous gowns by this couture label. Elie Saab was one of the best shows during Paris Fashion Week. Held at Le Carrousel Du Louvre, this show was absolutely "Brilliant."

Crazy for Nopooh Spring 2009

Noir Spring 2009 is the first limited edition tee shirt collection by Brooklyn based design firm Nopooh. These designs are hand-screened with bold, graphic images. Nopooh is the collaborative work of artist, Rob Tanner, and fashion photographer, Mark Babushkin. I feel in love with the black mum tee, view the entire collection at Nopooh's website.
