Christian Louboutin Look for Less

Designer Mode: Christian Louboutin Rollarball Loafers

Faux Mode: Steve Madden Studlyy Loafers

Mark Fast showed his collection at London Fashion Week today with a color palette ranging from blush, muted greys, camel brown, black and white stripes to a beautiful jewel toned purple. Whilst I liked the thick knitted sweaters and sweater dresses, it wasn’t anything I hadn’t seen before. The makeup was very plain with a natural face and nude lips which kept the focus on the clothing. Paired with nude Christian Louboutin shoes and messy braids kept the collection understated yet fashion forward. My favorite of the entire collection was the purple mixed with black at the end of the show. It had a very 20′s flapper feel to the esthetic and the mix of casual and dressy was interesting to look at. Plus you wouldn’t need to buy any jewelry with these pieces. Comment below and let me know what you thought of the Mark Fast Ready to Wear Fall Winter 2012 London.

Charlotte Ronson feminizes her grungy designs this Fall with ladylike refinements. Fall is all about a “wardrobe for a real girl,” the young designer says. Once again I am loving the boho chic inspired pieces. The flowing fabrics mixed with rich leathers and the simple hair and makeup. Oh and let’s not forget the elbow length gloves that somehow mix the past eras of the 20′s and 70′s together perfectly. Charlotte also describes her designs as having a “retro, ski feel” which is a combination I have never seen before. Simply lovely. Celebrity fans included, Russell Simmons, Nicky Hilton and Kim Kardashian’s BFF, Jonathan Cheban sitting front row. Comment below and let me know what you think…
