SPECIAL REPORT: Neon yellow. The trend that wont die.

I admit I really thought the Neon yellow trend would be over now. Its now winter. It raining almost every day. Its gloomy. Yet the neon yellow trend is stronger than ever with most retailers getting loads of stock in to keep up with the demand.

My beloved Neon Yellow Piagelle have completely sold out, so have the Neon Casadei skyscraper pumps I had my eye on. I have been left with some cheap options though they just did not do it for me. However Wanted Shoes (a cheap shoe store based in Australia) just bought out a half decent paid of Neon heels for $59 which I purchased today which inspired me to get back in touch with the neon trend I almost gave up on.

To begin this report I am posting some of my fave photographs of neon.

Next is my favourite topic - SHOES! No outfit is complete without a statement pair of shoes. here are a few of my neon favourites. They include Casadei, Christian Louboutin, Jimmy Choo and more.

 

Here are some celebrities rocking the Neon trend.

FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY: 100% Chanel Vogue Editorial

100% Chanel. Enough said.

Model Daria Werbowy is draped in 100% Chanel in Vogue Paris March 2009 editorial “La Veste” photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin styled by Emmanuelle Alt. 

I want to know where to buy pieces like pictured in this shoot. The Chanel stores I go to always couture that I can swim in. I guess I just need to be patient and wait for a hip collection to come my way.

This shoot is full of Chanel! Chanel pearls, Chanel bags, Chanel tweed jackets, Chanel tees, Chanel mini skirts... the list goes on!

BRING IT BACK: Diamonds and Pearls

Prince definitely was on the money when he sang his hit song 'Diamonds & Pearls'. Pearls have been around for so long that they cant be considered a trend. They are A WAY OF LIFE. There has been a movement away from the single neat strand of pearls to scattered pearls, blended with diamonds and other stones and textures for an edgy look. My favourite look is layering a necklaces of different textures for a home made statement piece. I recently even wore a handmade necklace made of pearls mixed together with crystals and feathers. 

Here is a small selection of my pearl necklaces. I think the fact I have not come bored of my cheap pearls warrants an investment in a long layered Chanel piece very soon... watch this space!
