"Style comes naturally"

I was reevaluating the latest couture collections the other day, and made the decision that couture is definitely my favourite of all seasons. Just because in all collections the clothes are more untouchable, more expensive, less wearable, theatrical and ultimately the most beautiful clothes ever made.

Anne Valerie Hash showcased her first ever collection as an official couturier. It was lovely. Here are my three top looks:

My all time favourite was Riccardo Tisci's Givenchy collection. Even though it was not really what you think of when couture is mentioned (no big and elaborate gowns) I stilled loved it for its simplicity and mature attitude. Also for incorporating the Shakespearean ruffles.

So I have a friend that was also looking at towards couture creations as inspiration for a project. He was discussing with this other friend how he looked on style.com, then randomly a boy decked out in head-to-toe American Eagle turns around and criticizes him for looking at the website for ideas. This boy insisted that those who look towards fashion blogs or websites for ideas do not have style, and that it should come naturally, like for instance himself. Yes boy style does come naturally, especially with you since you wear American Eagle hoodies and jeans everyday. Oh sorry you mix it up with a waist coat, my bad, that's style! I could go on but that wouldn't be very productive or nice of me. He just needs to learn not to be so freakin' cocky about his "style." So there's a story about my life lol.
