PRE-FALL, Why Do We Care ?

Alright, alright, it's still WINTER & before Spring
we're seeing "Pre-Fall"... 
& why do we care ?

How about trending?
How about deciding what's good to buy now
& will translate into Fall, giving us more bang for our buck,
so to speak.

I'm seeing
Ruffles
Lace
Embellishments
Refined & Lady-Like
Longer Lengths
Covered Legs
ALL carryintg forward into Fall/Winter 2011

I don't think any of us really, actually makes it a habit to toss our entire wardrobe with the change of design season.  But, I do think most of us want to look current even if we don't embrace
platforms with 6" heels. 
Just a few elements added to what we have invested in previously. 
Right?

So, here's what Lanvin, Valentino & Louis Vuitton (Marc Jacobs)
are telling us will happen:




all Lanvin
more refined  & classy, big jewelry still excellent,
sweaters over long silk skirts, the casual with the elegant,
lady-like day dressing with TONS of jewelry,
silk blouses with big floppy bows
animals


below Valentino

Big Shouldered Leather Jacket
Lace Pants
Non-Platform Shoes
sheerness


Sheer Chiffon, Bows, Jewelry
  •  
below Louis Vuitton

 
 colors, longer lengths, stockings,
NOTE the earring ladies

lace overlay, longer jacket lengths
so so so pretty



 Please stop in on my PAGE 2
which shows our jewelry for sale.

 Love, Marsha

    Dear Marsha,
    Thanks for all of the tips and advice for 2011......I am loving all of the black and muted colours and the leather. I'm glad lots of jewellery will still be in fashion and I love a litle bit of vintage lace too..... and I'm right up there with the ruffles !! XXXX

    Dearest Marsha, you are right we must add to what we already have rather than follow fashion. I love all the looks here. I could easily make them up from pieces I own. I love the last suit, I have nothing like that...

    Thanks for your comment about the chokers, I shall dig them out. They deserve to be worn.

    Hope you're well, love, C xx

    EVen though it does seem indeed a bit ridiculous, I am loving the pre-fall collections. Thank goodness the trend toward elegance is hanging on - and I LOVE the long graceful lengths. I'm with Christina - ADORE that Vuitton suit and ALL of the Lanvin. And did you see Bally? It is surprisingly chic - they have a new dynamic duo designing.

Please know how much I value your comments. I read every single one and do hope you will take the time to leave your thoughts. I think InstaGram with the Emojis have taken a lot away from blogging, but I love IG too.
