This must be the cutest Valentine’s Day dress EVER! I am so in love with it. It’s a really sweet LBD from the front with the boatneck, belt and satin bands on the hemline, but it’s a killer piece from the back with the sexy cut-out heart shape.

Another “Look of the Day“. This one’s rather a business look you could wear to work, a meeting or a formal lunch. The trench, cardigan, pants and boots should keep you warm in the cold while the scarf, bag and watch will add to your chic factor.
The colors are soft and neutral and integrate well into work environment. The accessories upgrade your whole look making everyone think you’re the chicest girl in the office. Feel free to ask for a pay raise. Your boss will hardly say no with you being so fabulous in your outfit. Go for it, girl!

It’s just a little more than a week until christmas! I’m so excited. Spending the holidays with my family is something I’m always looking forward to. The women in our family like to get all dressed up for christmas, that’s why I like putting together christmas outfits during this time of the year.
With the US economy being in a recession, I thought I would create a beautiful christmas party outfit for budget savy fashionistas. You really don’t have to shell out hundreds or thousands of your hard-earned money to look chic and fabulous. Want proof? Take a look below. A complete festive outfit for affordable $184.60!
Next thing on my list is to create a fashionable christmas outfit for under $100. Wish me luck on this one!

Yup, I’m officially in shoe heaven. If I were to own a pair of these awesome Giambattista Valli platforms most likely I wouldn’t be able to walk in them, but who cares as long as they look so A-M-A-Z-I-N-G on your feet, right?
Giambattista Valli – Spring 2008 Footwear
The first time I saw these darlings they have been strutted down the runway of Giambattista Valli‘s Spring 2008 fashion show where they took my heart by surprise. They instantly rocketed to the top of my wishlist, but unfortunately I wasn’t lucky enough to grab a pair for myself since women across the world have been trying to get their hands on the “Victoria“-shoe which was named after former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham because she was the first to wear these lovely heels in a photoshoot for fashion magazine ELLE.
The year went by and the GV platforms with the killer 6″ heel faded as I was starting to have new shoe obsessions with the likes of Christian Louboutin, Alexander McQueen or Brian Atwood. Until yesterday when they accidentally crossed my eye again. And they returned with a BANG!
Celebrities & Giambattista Valli
As you can see, I’m not the only one lusting after this dramatic footwear. Celebrities such as Rihanna, Jessica Biel, Mary-Kate Olsen, Victoria Beckham and Nicole Scherzinger have been seen sporting the GV “Victoria” platforms to several events. My personal favorites are Jessica Biel‘s fire red pair and MK‘s white ones with the hot pink platform and heel. Gorgeous, aren’t they? Which ones do you like best?
Designer Inspiration – Giambattista Valli vs. Forever 21
There is no such thing as an iconic shoe if it doesn’t get at least copied once by the mainstream shoe industry. And this is exactly what happened when Forever 21 launched their “Vero Neon Platform“-shoes. No question about them being blatant copies available in either black/pink or black/lime for as much as $22.80. But since I couldn’t get a pair of the Giambattistas I really start thinking about purchasing the copycats just for the fun of it. They probably won’t last long or spend any comfort (I think the architecture of the shoe makes it impossible even if the shoe was $600), but that’s not what I expect from a shoe that’s $20. Of course there are always exceptions. And since I’ve never bought footwear from Forever 21 before I guess I just might give it a go and find out myself.
