As we here in the States are getting prepared for the oncoming autumnal chill, Giambattista Valli is deep in the heart of Spring. From bold blue eyeshadow to gladiator sandals that cascaded to the upper calf with platform soles glistening with glitter, his Spring collection was an ode to all things pretty and youthful, with bare legs, chiffon, and ruffles to boot.
The stylish decades of the 60’s and 70’s were the influences with swing coats in flirty floral prints, expertly-tailored suiting, and collarless rocker chic jackets. A modern edge was injected with statement-making studs, eye-catching embellishment, and fierce strappy sandals.
The sheer dress trend made an appearance in bold hues and vibrant patterns with crystal adornment, embroidered cups, sophisticated neckties, and sultry keyholes. We’ll definitely see at least one or two of the gowns on display during awards season.
Was there anything rebellious or radical about what Valli offered up? Not quite, but is there anything wrong with lively and bold designs oozing with femininity? Not at all. The clothes emitted approachability, grace, and fun: the kind of looks you want not only for Spring, but in your wardrobe year-round.
Thoughts on the latest from Giambattista Valli?

Janelle Monae and her stylist Maeve Reilly are painting Paris black and white with a series of delectable threads! Yes, the chanteuse has been sticking to her signature noir et blanc color palette, but has been injecting her looks with lots of punch with prints, textures, and fun clutches.
Take a look:
One of my favorite ensembles was the Emanuel Ungaro polka dotted two piece she wore to the house’s show.
She accessorized with Nicholas Kirkwood polly petal ankle strap sandals and a Kotur clutch.
To take in the Stella McCartney collection, she rocked a $960 Stella McCartney Black Pom Pom Sweater, a Neil Barrett skirt, $1,100 Stella McCartney double platform brogues (similar below), and a Les Petite Joueurs Mondrian clutch.
As we wrote here, she attended the Akris show in a creamy Fall 2015 ensemble by the brand and a $995 Anya Hindmarch ‘Men at Work’ clutch.
Lastly, for the Giambattista Valli show, she was styled in a swirl printed dress and coat from Valli’s Fall 2015 collection, topped off by $950 Sophia Webster Alessandra Feather Sandals.
That’s a load of lovely looks!
The polka dot prints were my favorite.
Which was yours?

I can’t wait for AHS: Hotel to premiere this week! One of the show’s stars, Angela Bassett, was totally fierce at the red carpet event in a $550 Theia Vegan Leather Cocktail Dress:
Her one-shoulder cocktail dress features an open back, vegan leather bodice, zibeline paneling, and a crepe skirt.
Her levels of flawlessness are permanently spiking.
If you’re up for the splurge, get Angela’s frock here.

Zendaya Coleman is taking PFW by storm! She was print-perfect at the Kenzo Spring 2016 Show in a Fall 2015 Printed Coat, Ruffle Accented Print Top, and Printed Trousers from the brand:
Her coat was shown with an equally-bold, ruffle-accented shirt, printed wrap skirt, and python booties on the runway.
Her trousers were paired with a cozy hat and patterned poncho.
Not a huge fan of her hair here, but the look was fab!
What do you think? Hot! or Hmm…?

Kate Upton appeared at the Operation Smile 2015 Smile Gala in Beverly Hills in the same $698 Diane von Furstenberg Polka Dot Jumpsuit worn by Lala Anthony:
The black and blue polka-dot print one piece is cut from fluid silk and detailed with sheer black pinstriped sleeves and a contrasting purple leather waist-tie.
Lala wins this one for me! I love how she flipped the belt around to show the contrast leather, and the length works on her!

Whenever VOGUE throws a party, you know the who’s who of the fashion industry will show up and show out! The glamour was definitely on at the fashion bible’s 95th Anniversary Party.
Let’s see what the attendees wore!
Zendaya Coleman chose an artful LWD from Katherine Mavridis. This is my first time hearing of her designs and I’m certain this won’t be the last: she makes amazing pieces!
Rihanna stepped right out of her boudoir into the celebration, in Dior of course.
Kanye West and mother-in-law Kris Jenner were in attendance, though they appeared to be attending two different events. She went glam in a black off-the-shoulder gown and he was casual in a jersey-inspired top, destructed denim, and his own Yeezy kicks.
Zoe Kravitz literally walked off the Balenciaga runway to the affair, in the same gown she was draped in on the fashion house’s Spring 2016 catwalk. The dress is gorgeous and so is Zoe, but I would’ve loved simple ankle-strap sandals here.
Riley Montana looked every bit the supermodel in a long-sleeve lace-up Balmain LWD. Hot!
Liya Kebede showed some skin in a grey knit crop top and high-waist black patent leather skirt with a thigh-high slit. She never looks anything less than stunning.
Binx Walton continued Rih’s boudoir-ready vibe in a robe-inspired Alexander Wang tie-waist dress with black leather pointed-toe booties as anchors.
Lily Aldridge was gilded in a gold sequin Alexandre Vauthier mini dress.
Kendall Jenner added some texture to the affair in a strapless velvet LBD with a contrast white ruffle hem. I loved the length of this piece!
Izabel Goulart was the lady in red in a leather patent moto-inspired Alexandre Vauthier-inspired number.
Ines Rau kept it simple and chic in a black gown with a plunging neckline and thigh-high slit and a pop of color with red lips.
Grace Bol harked back to Spring in a $299 Karen Millen Floral Print Pencil Dress.
Another gorgeous model, another Balmain dress! Anais Mali chose a blue pleated number from the brand for the party.
W’s Stefano Tonchi and Giovanna Battaglia posed together, with the style maven in Alexander McQueen. She never has an off-day. I’m sure of it!
Bella Hadid has become a full-on Balmain girl and she donned a peplum halter dress from the fashion house with sheer windowpane paneling.
Yasiin Bey donned all-black for the occasion with Rick Owens platform sneakers.
Closing out the fête was Alina Cho in a $2,385 Balmain Pleated Wide Leg Jumpsuit. I need this in my closet stat!
Who had your favorite look at the fête?
