chiqueria….and the going-ons of the “it” bloggers

here a glimpse of the everyday life of the “it” bloggers of the moment… it’s one fashion show and subsequent fashion party after the other…reinventing themselves every time and inspiring the rest of us who have more to think about than what to wear today… I am glad “they” are there for us as for they give me my daily fashion fix…something to dream about (…oh I wish I could travel around the world gong to one fashion show after the other but with two little kids this one is gonna have to wait!)…and more inspiration than any magazine can provide as what they give is fashion in the raw and now!

Danni and Bryanboy at 20 years of Dolce Gabbana Uomo

Danni from Chicmuse and the ever fabulous Anna Dello Russo …clearly she is very much into the lace look at the mo and only she can pull off that well!

the bootie is here to stay! …open toe or closed toe we’ll see many more versions..this one by Alaia is superb and look comfy too!

Karla from http://karlascloset.blogspot.com (here pictured with her stylish boyfriend) is another stylish blogger whose style I admire, especially her commitment to high heels! I just always prefer comfort over style…

I love this midriff bearing dress with the open back..simple luxury..

Hanneli from http://www.hanneli.com/ shows us her take on what to wear this summer…

..jeans..soft pinks and lots of nudes..

here the SS2010 Stella collection…not soo much my style but I love the colors!

but this…this BALMAIN combo I love! and I’m totally mad about the pants!! Glad Danny only got to use them for the shoot as it would have been a bit too much to bare had she been given them!!

just hot hot hot!!

PS- Patrizia Pepe has some of the best fitting leather pants I’ve ever tried! Come try them on at our new store in Hyde Park!
