LOOKS OF THE WEEK

This is my favourite look of the week: the dress is amazing, especially paired with those sky-high ankle boots and what to say about her beautiful, toned long legs? She's got it all!

She is so "pure"... the powder/nude colour in its every shade makes her really sweet... of course, it's very easy with that beautiful figure and such pretty face!

Oh Sienna Sienna... finally you did something good... her look here is very now, big harem pants (maybe a bit too much?) matched with the blazer with curled up arms... I quite like this outfit and I like the way she matched 3 different (even if all neutrals) colours. Nice shoes too(Margiela?)

I'm not a huge fan of Jessica Biel but this outfit really surprised me: it is very lady-like (good source of inspiration for the office look) and simple and I really love the blue tone she used.

Not sure I'm going to repeat it though.

Another lady-to-be this week... Rosie has a very fresh and young face so the contrast she made wearing this very-Armani kind of outfit is quite significant. She' s feminine, delicate and, why not? a bit posh... she looks adorable by the way.

BIG SHOULDERS: BIG TREND

It's official: we can't get rid of big shoulder jackets this year! If we check the fall-winter catwalk shows we can easily notice that they are here to stay! Balmain (as usual), Herve Leger, Jonathan Saunders and even Marc Jacobs showed this trend for the upcoming season.

The eighties are making a true come back, so we can take out our mother's power suits or even be inspired by Dynasty characters. What about Samantha in the Sex and the city movie this summer, whose suits in every possible color got really big shoulders? Anne Hathaway, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate Moss (she can't miss!) among celebrities are already making their way to wear the trend. So, come on, we don't have to be afraid to look like Boy George, Michael Jackson or a member of the Duran Duran and at least we should try to go for a structured jacket with short sleeves or to match it with a pencil skirt while accentuating the waist with a wide belt. If this kind of jacket/dress has a quality it would surely be that it can help balance the pear-shaped body.
