  9. Yay!...this is the kind of learning I like to do lol. I am beyond stoked for the 80s revival especially after seeing Gicci's A/W collection. I am all about amalgamation, quilted bags a la Chanel, veils and new necklines. Also that Herve Leger dress is beyond brilliant!

  26. J'ai beaucoup aimé le défilé Vuitton. J'adore Marc Jacobs et je trouve que cette collection très ethnique rappelle son côté quelque peu excentrique ! J'adore !
