DE LA RENTA ACCESSORIES WITH LOULOU DE LA FALAISE

Best known as the longtime muse of Yves Saint Laurent, Loulou de la Falaise has been a fixture in the fashion world since the early seventies when she began collaborating with the designer specifically on jewelry and broadly on the world of Yves Saint Laurent. Thirty years later, when Saint Laurent retired in 2003, Loulou started her own brand bringing her passion and energy to customers via her colorful jewelry, accessories, and clothes. In the fall of 2008, Loulou and Oscar de la Renta debuted a fine jewelry collaboration that continues today. Sharing a love of bold styles and exotic inspirations, the two have found much common ground between them in their partnership.

Debra Messing at the Sag Awards on January 27, 2008. Wore an De la Renta gown that got inspiration from DE LA FALAISE with the large gems.

NEW MOON PREMIERE IN LOS ANGELES

Kristen Stewart looked gorgeous at the Los Angeles premiere for the latest craze of new moon on November 17, 2009. She wore an Ocar de la Renta gown which came from the designer's Spring 2010 Ready-to-Wear collection pieces. She wanted to keep her own rocker chic style and definatly made this dress her own. Being known for her tomboy look of jeans and sneakers the crowd loved Kristen in this dress and I agree with them!

Oscar Boots

FINALLY the cold weather is here for us SoCal residence time to get new boots for the season. Heres a few of De La Renta's boots the good and the bad.

THE GOOD

THE BAD

Coyote boots. definately NOT a fan!

PETA Advertisement

The story this PETA advertisement is trying to get across to people is to obviously give becoming a vegetarian a chance and I think they decided to have actress Cloris Lechman wearing the lettuce as a fashion to influence people to use other things besides fur to make clothing.

Betsey Johnson possiblities

The Betsey Johnson house alluded to a much more recession friendly line. Betsey Johnson CEO Chantal Bacon announced "Ms. Johnson is planning a limited-edition design collaboration with a retailer that will likely launch in the fall." Unfortunately they did not say which retailer she will be working with but many believe it will be with Target or H&M for the fact that both retailers have partnered up in similar situations with designers before. Personally i can't wait for her to launch her line at either stores! I will definitely be following up to see where her line will be launched at.
