Roberto Cavalli showed in his Ready To Wear Spring 2011 fashion show that animal prints are still a must have this season. I know I'm saving my money for these snake boots!
There are a few items you have to have in your wardrobe this April. With these items you can create a lot of sets and for inspiration I made three looks: casual, girly and work wear.
1. Casual: The first item is a printed shirt that you can dress up by putting a white blazer on top of it. The pink shorts and blue converse make the look complete. 2. Girly: Get a floral dress right away if you don't have one in your closet yet.The low boots and brown belt make it less feminine. 3. Work wear: The denim trouser has a great bright colour and in combination with the oxfords and the white blouse you're good to go stylish to work!

This Victoria's Secret Angel Adriana Lima does know how to work the camera. In Vogue Brazil she shows us which trends we will see this season. Although I'm not quite sure about the trend of the black blouse in combination with the sequin pants this Spring, she worked it well! I'm confident that we'll see the black blouse and sequin pants combination this fall/winter again!
Victoria Beckham's style is always simple, chic and very expensive. Do you want to look like her but not spend that much money? Here are a few less expensive items for the same look. Enjoy!

Always wondered how to interpret the runway to your daily style? Daughter of the ex-editor in chief of Vogue France Carine, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, shows in the December issue of Vogue China (in 2009) how to do this. With her beauty and great sense of style I'm sure that she can even look fashionable in a plastic garbage can.
These pictures makes me fall in love with fashion photographer Tim Walker, stylist Kate Phelan, hair stylist Malcolm Edwards and makeup artist Sam Bryant. Together they make it impossible not to buy something of the Spring 2011 collection of the Korean fashion brand O'2ND.
These 10 items are the all time fashion must haves and shouldn't be missing in a womens closet. Like Yves Saint Laurent said wisely "Fashion fades, but style is eternal".
Fashion embraced this Spring red, yellow, pink, blue and every other colour there is. Designers showed at the previews Fashion Shows that this season it's all about colour mixing. If you don't want to jump in the colour scene right away, you can start with one bright colour at the time. As Simons so cleverly demonstrated at the Jil Sanders runway, brights look great with black.

I love, correction, ADORE Balmain! Every collection is incredible and the items never go out of fashion. Pierre Balmain has to be so proud of Christophe Decarnin. He brought Balmain back with his designs for today's women: confident, independent and fierce. Balmain, when power meets style. Who is your favourite designer?
