Err on The Side of Caution...

We're loving the Spring florals that are taking over the catwalks.  Feminine fabrics and master tailoring are making a comeback as well as modest hemlines.  

Erdem starts their Spring 12 with pretty pastels, lace and hemlines and classic shoes with a contemporary twist.  We love Erdem as it's always relevant, beautiful and avant garde yet wearable perfect for the cautious fashionista, no shocking pink flamingos here!



These shoes are going on our wish list...


HNMC favourite... Mixing floral with animal print.  Love the gloves and the red lips - of course. 


Chic and deconstructed ponytails, an easy and on trend hair staple.


Erdem is known for their simple yet statement making lace dresses, this collection is no exception.



HNMC favourite!


...wow


The coat dress is surely a wardrobe staple for the coming spring 12 season.  This looks amazing with a fresh white shirt underneath.



Demure blouse with short shorts - we're stealing this!



Spring has Sprung..In Paris.

Youthful femininity was rife at Peter Copping's latest offering for Nina Ricci, Spring12 at Paris Fashion Week.  With classic tailoring like pencil skirts worn with mesh tee's and an abundance of bustiers, coats as dresses and retro sunglasses the collection was flawless - WE LOVED IT!

As always the entire collection was totally wearable and absolutely lust worthy.  We'd love to invest in the 40's floral dress, frill skirt and jewel applique tops.  They'll be perfect forever wardrobe pieces honestly!

Valade Validation...

We're unashamedly obsessed with French model Amyline Valade....Born in 1991 (1991?!?!) She is the model of the moment - no less than Alexander Wang's muse!

With her flawless golden skin, pink pout and blue as blue eyes Amyline also has the best off duty style we've seen in ages!  And that is saying something. 



Hair slicked back with a casual grey knit and biker jacket - perfect. 



HNMC FAVOURITE....ever?


Aymeline for RUSSH



Stovepipe jeans, biker jacket, Balenciaga totes and patent brogues...essentials!


With Alexander Wang.


For Spanish Vogue Oct. 2011


This look is just perfect.... a definite for our inspiration board!



Casual street chic... Heavenly in white lace and leather flats.

House of Happy Horrors...

Ordinarily you'd think that mixing all the hottest trends would make one big mess.... But Henry Holland wields his genius and yet again creates a one two punch collection.  Colour then cut.  

We LOVE Henry Hollands SS12 collection of contrasting pastels, animal print, mesh all in sweet petite prim and proper tailoring - with bits of jagged and metallic mesh thrown in!



This shirt is such an essential piece!


We love the snake print collar...



HNMC favourite - these pants!!






One of our favourite pieces in the collection.




Amazing bustier.


Fish nets and beautiful don't care hair.

And the Emmy Goes to....

THE RED DRESS!

The stars stylists obviously don't compare notes? 

Guess what colour is red hot right now?  


This is such a prom dress gone wrong!  Kathy Griffin tries and fails.  Again.



This dress is beautiful but made skanky with the big hair!






Lea nails it!



Nina Dobrev looks amazing...
