Burberry Summer/Spring 2011 Campaign + More!

Hola, blogging world. These photos have been available on the Burberry Facebook page for weeks now but I decided to blog about them anyway. The first photos are part of Burberry's Summer/Spring 2011 compaigns, click here to see a behind-the-scenes video, featuring Tali Lennox and Tara Ferry. The last photos are from the Burberry's Exotic collection.

Christopher Bailey and Friends

Fashion designers. They're the rock stars of the fashion world. And just like rock stars, its hard to think of them as people outside of their work for their label. Most people are familiar with the names Versace, Armani, Gucci, and Chanel but if challenged to pick the designers behind those brands most would surely fail.

What do designers wear in their free time? And who do they associate with? Just recently those questions got stuck in my brain. And so I got inspired and with a few clicks of my keyboard I got my answer. But I couldn't just stop there. No. I had to blog about it because that's what good bloggers do.

I started with Christoper Bailey because I adore his work. I wrote this post last night and I found it really interesting so I wrote four other like them. I plan to post them in the future when I don't have time to write or when I'm just un-inspiried. So keep an eye out for them. Aren't designers just fascinating?

Thank you for reading. Please check out my second blog and follow this one [if you feels so inclined]! I'll be back tomorrow as usual. Did you like this post? Leave thoughts in the comments.

Best Dressed: Elle Style Awards

The Elle Style Awards. I'm a bit behind--again. I thought about not blogging about this event but I knew that all the ladies--and gentlemen--looked too good. I couldn't not blog about it. Which look is your favorite? Leave all thoughts and questions in the comments below!

Style Highlights: Alexa Chung

I feel that lately I've been starting off each post with an apology. And for that I'm sorry. I posted about Dakota Fanning the day before yesterday and I wrote this post at the same time that I wrote that one because I knew that I was going to be SO busy today and I honestly wouldn't have time. I need to stop aologizing and just blog. :) Next week will be better but I think I said that last week.

Alexa chose to wear a simple trench over and blue and white plaid mini-dress. Her up-do and super chic Valentino shoes keep the her from looking like she is dressed up as Dorothy, from The Wizard of Oz. She's a beautiful girl who looks young and fresh.

This is what rocker chic looks like! Alexa hits the nail on the head again. :) Her simple grey sweater is perfect for the cold days ahead but it becomes instantly chic when paired with a sleek leather mini-skirt. Her legs might be a little chilly but fashion knows no pain. Or at least that's what they say. Her leopard print purse is the perfect accesory. It is fun--without being over-the-top.

Alexa always look great in Chanel. This blocking pattern exposes a bit more skin than Alexa is used to showing. The blue compliments her skintone wonderfully. Doesn't she look like she's glowing? Maybe it has to do with the fact that she's at a Chanel fashion show. Her soft, whispy locks frame her face to perfection. Lovely. :)

Aha! Alexa still looks fabulous in pants. This simple peach top, tied around the waist to accentuate it, is laid-back and simple. Alexa knows that less is more in the fashion world--not including fabric, that is.

Burberry! Oh, I'm in love. Burberry is one of the most iconic brands in the world. And Christoper Bailey has managed to maintain Burberry's classic reputation while creating a brand that is edgy and fashion-forward. The military green color is super popular at the moment but what really stands out is that cross-the-shoulder purse. Perfect to stow away makeup, cellphones, and other neccesities.

Another Chanel look and Alexa still looks gorgeous. Her black tights and black shoes enlongate her legs. Plus black is very flattering. She takes this classic frock and makes it her own by adding a funky skull necklace and heart shaped pin--featuring John Lennon and Yoko Ono. She doesn't take fashion too seriously. I admire that. :)

Burberry Spring/Summer 2011 Campaign

Recently Burberry released the February couple featured in their Burberry Spring/Summer 2011 Campaign. I already blogged about the campaign featuring Cara and Jacob. If you want to see that, click here. This month Christopher Bailey decided to feature the always lovely Jourdan Dunn and Sacha M'Baye.

Burberry Spring/Summer 2011 Campaign

Hello. Whether you're a new reader or a loyal one, welcome! Today's post seems pretty self explanatory. See the title above. I am one of the three million people who are fans of Burberry on Facebook and a few days ago they released pictures of their new S/S 2011 Campaign.

Christopher Bailey [Cheif Creative Officer of Bruberry] said, "We wanted to create a dynamic, evolving campaign that reflects the diversity of our broad global consumer, revealing new British cast members each month, all with their own identity, embodying the different attitudes of the Burberry guy and girl. We shot the campaign on Brighton beach to celebrate the great British outdoors and our history of supporting emerging talent and to bring to life the emotion behind protection from the elements."

As many of you know, Burberry is my favorite brand and as that is the case, I was so excited to see these that I had to share them with you. That lime green cross-over? Adorable! That leather and white trench? I need! Too bad we're in a recession. But it doesn't hurt to look, right? Anyway. Here's a link to see footage from the shoot with Cara Delevingne and Jacob Young.

Anyway, I know that some of you don't have the same enthusiam for British fashion that I have and so I decided to write a second post for today. Just scroll down a little and you'll see it. Hopefully, its more to your liking.

Flashback: Burberry Prorsum

If you've read my blog for any period of time you know that I adore Christopher Bailey. His work literally will take my breath away when I first see it. There is no doubt that if money was not a factor, my closet would be filled to the brim with Burberry coats, scarves, and shoes. And probably any other type of garmet imaginable.

I got a bit nostalgic today and took a walk down memory lane. Today's post is all about Burberry Prorsum and its transformation throughout the years.

I loved looking through all these pictures. Burberry Prorsum is such an iconic brand. Do I even need to explain why I adore this brand so much? I'm so excited for Burberry Prorsum Fall 2011! The Pre-Fall collection is out but I love the drama of the runway more than anything. The music. The lights. Its amazing.
