Welcome to My Dream World

The couture shows stomped the cat walk about a week ago and had me all googly-eyed. This is my favorite time of year, a time when fantasies become reality. People always tell me that they do not get fashion shows because they show clothing that could not be worn out on the streets. This is true for more than half the stuff that prances down the runway, but what do you think inspires the ones who are making your ready to wear clothing? The runways!!! Not only are they inspiring the ready to wear designers, but they also get people like me to get to feel for the few minutes of viewing the shows a giddy feeling in their hearts. Here are some looks that got my pulse racing...Elie Saab 's collection consisted of ethereal dresses colored as light as a baby's skin and whimsically detailed with lace and diamonds. I especially adored the face framing braid for the hair style.

Valentino's line looked as though it could have been inspired by MGMT's Electric Feel song with their use of neon bright colors paired with neutral tans. The use of blue make up for the eyes and shoulders looking as though the models acquired blues sunburns from another planet made me want to go where they had been.
