So I was looking my way through the Fall 2009 Couture shows. This one stood out to me so much, for obvious reasons. It pretty much looks like John Galliano travelled back in time in a Delorean, snuck backstage at a Dior show circa 1950, and kidnapped half-dressed models wearing Dior's New Look for inspiration. Which isn't far off at all. He took inspiration from pictures of Monsieur Dior dressing his models for a show. Not quite as far-fetched, but I thought of my theory even before I read that.
Obviously the looks aren't completely wearable, but the separates are really beautiful. The colors are really nice, especially on the orange skirt. My favorite looks are a tie between the orange skirt and the long yellow skirt. I also really like the sillhouette of the look next to the farthest on the right. The 1950's is one of my personal favorites in terms of fashion. These clothes definitely really capture the decade, which is the point!
Auf wiedersehen, Simone (I definitely looked up how to spell that)

When I saw these spiffy Pierre Hardy shoes, I thought of a colorful fish in a reef. I like how the shoe is actually really simple underneath, but then the designer piles on all the cool little colorful discs. He does it without going too overboard, because the way they are arranged is very simple and not too overwhelming at all! I like how there are only a couple touches of color, with the orange and the blue. I think that since the design is so wild, keeping the color palette is smart. If they were a whole rainbow of colors, it would be too much. Since the shoe is really eye-catching, I would keep my outfit very simple not to detract from these lovely shoes! In my opinion as an amateur shoe critic, they are the perfect mix of elegance and fun.
The other day I decided to rent "The Breakfast Club". I figured it was one of those movies that are a necessity to watch. I really didn't know what to expect from it or what it was about at all. It was in the comedy section, so I didn't really expect it to be as dramatic as it was! But I still really liked it (except for the jock, second from the left, he really really annoyed me.). There's something about any teen 80's movie that just makes you like it. I wonder if it's because they're old, but I seriously doubt movies from now will have the same effect in 20 years.
