Louis Vuitton Takes You from The Yacht Club to The Boardroom and Back with This Resort Collection
We often think about purses and accessories when we hear the name Louis Vuitton but this Resort 2010 collection shows another side of the French label: flirty dresses, beautiful little jackets... very pretty and high fashion. There is not much color but the black and white make these pieces very classic and wearable outside the yacht club.

Karl Lagerfeld and Eres Bring You an Interactive Peep-show!
Karl Lagerfeld and the
French swimwear company Eres have collaborated on a fun summer campaign:
these Parisian pin-ups wear adorable Chanel
dresses but as soon as you load the website: taa daaa, you've got
your own private peep-show too! Your mouse helps you undress the models
and reveal the usually fantastic Eres swimsuits. There is an obvious
advantage here: you don't have to spend all your 20's like Lisamarie on a
Friday night, so you can keep your money and buy those clothes instead .
My only regret? There should be more swimsuits to look at and there
should be male models to undress! But I hope this concept takes off!

Chanel 2010 Spring Summer Haute-Couture Make-Up
Christelle has shown you the beautiful clothes from the Chanel 2010 Spring Summer Haute-Couture Show and now here's the scoop on the makeup. Peter Philips did another beautiful job with three key phrases from Karl for inspiration: neon baroque, chemical pastels and liquid silver. I have no idea what that's supposed to mean either. For the haute couture collection, Peter wanted the makeup to be classical so the attention would be focused on the clothes. He looked for shades which would best fit the water-colour and acid-like tones of the fabric and decided to place the focus on the lips.
For the eyes he applied the new Ombres Contraste Duo - Gris-Subtil on the eyelids, composed
of two shades of grey, one of which silver sparkle’s reflected the light. At the roots of the eyelashes a thin stroke of Crayon Khôl - Graphite. On the eyelashes, a touch of Mascara Inimitable – Black.
For the cheeks he used a light touch of Les Tissages de Chanel - Tweed Corail which brought a delicate dash of colour to the cheekbones.
Finally, to create the mercury-like effect on the nails, Peter used Le Vernis in Silver launched a limited edition polish from Spring 2007.

Ooh la la! Hermès Gets Whimsical for Spring 2010
Hermès should be part of every woman's survival kit: amazing shoes, colorful scarves, pretty dresses, classic bags and even China! Sure, Hermès is not about avant-garde fashion, but it stands out for craftsmanship and timeless design. Their slogan in this spring campaign? "Hermès, life like a fairytale" and if you can afford any of these pieces, life would certainly be like a fairytale!

BCBG by Max Azria: Summer 2010 Will Be Bright and Sexy!
When I first saw this spring/summer 2010 campaign from BCBG by Max Azria, I gasped. Look at these beauties! I'm not talking about the models. Look at these fantastic shoes, they are seriously, no wait, seriously sexy! The rest of this collection is a mix of bright colors and floral patterns with geometrical, asymmetrical hemlines.
