NYFW: Herve Leger S/S 2012

Herve Leger will always be a staple and every celebutante and it-girl's go to dress for body con, body fit teeny dresses which will make you definitely suffer, scream and deprived of oxygen all for the sake of curves. A personal favorite of mine, the brand showcased an amazing lineup for its S/S 2012 Collection. Aside from the mainstays- bodycon dresses, Herve Leger sent down the runway were combinations of modern tribal African flavor with a bit of tasteful bondage and S&M. Think the canvas fit dress spiced up and embellished with flashy fringe and metallic hardware for a bit of edginess. The outfits were also accessorized with vampy, strappy sandals and the occasional tough-girl motorcycle jacket. Herve Leger’s collection proved that it is possible to improve upon what you’ve already deemed to be perfection – and that it can be a wise gamble to take your chic aesthetic into a bit more of a darker territory, with eye-catching results.

Lagged post from December (Decemblur) and I was quite excited to post this, I did not know what took me so long. I love this Christmas gift to myself dress which, I admit cost an arm and a leg, but was totally worth it...since I think the investment of owning an Herve pc. is priceless! More so, it comes in a gorgeous color which is a cross between yellow and green and quite bright and neon...definitely making me easier to find in a crowd/dark crowded bar. I decided to not be boring by contrasting it with blue for accessories rather than the never failing black. It was Christmas then, and I was feeling a bit more adventurous. Wore this to the modified Kris Kringle party which involved the trade of booze instead of gifts and then to Attica (yet again) for the perfect night cap.

The dress as worn by 90210's Jessica Stroup...I think she ROCKED it!

Sink the Pink

Sink the Pink. It's all the fashion.
Drink the drink, it's old-fashioned
Gimme water, gimme wine
Gonna show you a good time
Sink the pink
Sink the pink.

Dress: Alexis Lace Jersey Bodycon Dress from Glitterati
Purse: Chanel 2.55
Shoes: Michael Antonio Pumps

Got to love old school AC/DC thus the song inspired blog post.
At the end of the day, as much as I would rave about the little black dress for nights out, nothing beats a little pink dress to add classic girly-ness and charm to a Saturday night out. Add a bit of lace for drama, and the rest was history. This was my logic for wearing this super tiny pink dress to a friend's Christmas dinner turned into a night belonging to the hall of shame category as I tripped on my 6" heels spiked studded pumps and ended up with down on bended and wounded knees. Talk about taking KILLER HEELS to a whole new literal meaning.

Anyway, as most of you should know, this dress is named the "Alexis" dress and it is part of our new collection, Naughty or Nice from me and my bestfriend's store, Glitterati. It was inspired by a Temperley London creation and I absolutely adore the rave reviews from this dress.
(One of the most popular from the collection).
I contrasted the lace and pink with the legendary killer studded pumps and my favorite night out purse, my Chanel 2.55.

All in all it was a great night! Too bad I don't have photos of my HOLIDAZED Spirit. A great way to kick up the Holiday cheer. Christmas is coming so soon!
How was everyone's weekend?

xx
