Happy New Years dear :) I love the idea of transparent clothing, that concept of a garment being there physically but not being fully there visually is so wonderful. Plus it gives a whole new spin to the idea of layering.
ReplyDeleteHotness all over the place! :))
ReplyDeleteHappy new year Couture Carrie!
Hope you had a splendid New Year's Eve!
ReplyDeleteTransparency is my all time favorite trend. Complete transparency is a so daring that it's great. I think I'll leave the transparent pants on the runway, but a coat seems reasonable.
The Chanel and Galliano shoes make my heart flutter.
Amazing Post, as always. <3
Happy new year!! Thanks for your warm comment. My favorite: Calvin Klein altough transparent clothing is not one of my favorites trends

ReplyDeleteBut awesome connection to the New Year!
Happy New Year's - I hope your year is filled with joy and tons of great fashion!

ReplyDeleteThis post totally made me miss my transparent jelly sandals. :D I'm talking about the ones I wore as a little girl -the ones that were all the rage- silently missing them now.

Love the blog, and thanks for checking us out!

Happy New Years! I am in the middle about transparent. It looks so fabulous on the runaway but if I wore it on the street, I would fear I would look like a homeless woman:) I wouldn't mind those grandois windows!

ReplyDeleteThe Chanel shoe just boggles my mind.
ReplyDeleteHappy 2009! I hope you had a great time last night, CC.
Ooh I like the architecture shots, it's so clean and sparse. I wouldn't do those transparent handbags though, no need for everyone to know what junk I carry around on a daily basis!
ReplyDeleteIf I am to wear transparent clothing... ooh la la... I will have to add weight loss to new year resolution... sigh!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! ENJOY!

Hey darlin CC! Happy New Years to you! I know I've been MIA for quite a while but I've had a lot to deal with these past weeks. I hope everything is great with you!
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes to sheer clothing, I tend to lean more towards the softer, more flowy fabrics rather than the see-through plastic type. I'm totally loving those transparent heels though!
Have a great day tomorrow and I hope you enjoy your weekend as well. All the best sweetie :)
Happy New Year, CC. I hope you had a blast. I was thinking that I should get those chairs.. P. Stark probably? Maybe...
ReplyDeletewow the clothes are so lovely!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the gorgeous views. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteNice connection to the new year! I'm not sure I'm ready for this trend, though.
ReplyDeleteThe raincoats remind me of Bladerunner...
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!! I'll have to think about this transparency thing...not sure about it as yet, but who knows?
ReplyDeleteHey, happy new year. And I see that you started it with yet another awesome post. Great going!
