This years oscar de la renta resort collection was a mixture of 3 things old school 50s couture,retro 80s power woman and the new modern and fresh oscar girl all merged into one fabulous collection! The show started with simple easy summery ready to wear pieces such as cute print jumpsuit,shorts and blazer and several summer flowing dresses. I loved the elegant tweed and lace dresses and some of those cute tweed jackets! This collection was the first time oscar has every done a photography print which i thought was him growing into the modern times!! But the oscar de la renta customer is not the cool downtown girl but the preppy upper east sider young,rich and very elegant and oscar also would be a favorite of her mothers the wealthy upper east side power women is another oscar girl there were fab items for all of them. The sequenced skirts and glittering tops for the young girl, the floral and tweed dresses for the older oscar woman!!! I saw a hint of 80s oscar there was a slight tilt to the retro 80s some where oscar is most comfortable this woman was power and glamour!! Me being oh so old school i loved with a passion the glamorous 50s couture inspired looks the ruffles,lace,tulle sequenced all so fab!! I particularly liked a elegant red lace tulle dress which was the mix of new and old the neckline was sporty and fresh the skirt was couture heaven it was fab!! I also dyed for the OSCAR GOWNS!! The draped red was sexy and summery, the golden tule sequence gown was classic oscar fairy-tale moment and the final look of the show was a fab black and white tulle print gown it was classic couture and heaven also oscar was mixing the new old and the formal and the casual in one of my fav looks of the show it was a sequenced biege sweater worn with fab metallic silver pleat skirt i thought it was cute casual and very young!!

Paul's Valentine Natalie Portman has teamed up with Johnny Depp for Paul McCartney's self-directed new music video, My Valentine. The actors feature in a simple black and white video, gesturing and lip-syncing McCartney's lyrics to the mellow track, which is taken from his recent album, Kisses on the Bottom. The video was unveiled at a private event on Friday evening in the LA store of daughter Stella McCartney, where guests included Miranda Kerrand Orlando Bloom, Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin as well as Reese Witherspoon, Gwen Stefani, Kristen Stewart and Zooey Deschanel. Jaeger sold! Jaeger has been sold for almost £20 million to Better Capital, a Guernsey-based investment company. Better Capital said in a statement today that it had acquired, "all of the secured debt and a 90 per cent stake in Jaeger Group Limited… The aggregate cost of the acquisition was £19.5 million, the substantial majority of which was in respect of the acquisition of the secured debt with the remainder in respect of the equity stake." The British label - which saw profits fall more than 60 per cent from £2.22 million to £772,000 in 2011 - was acquired by British Fashion Council chairman Harold Tillman in 2002, but the retail mogul admitted in January that the label had not been immune to a difficult year for the UK high street. Diana the muse Princess Diana, is responsible for two of the footwear world's most iconic designs - or so says Christian Louboutin. The legendary designer created his first pair of shoes, the Love style, after being inspired by the late royal. "It was 1992 and I was looking at this picture of Princess Diana taken while her husband was giving a speech. She looked so sad and bored, I thought: 'what would bring a smile to her face?'" he said. He added that Diana also gave him the idea for cleavage shoes - styles that expose the top of a woman's toes. Diors Future Dior president and chief executive Sidney Toledanohas spoken for the first about Raf Simons'appointment as artistic director at the label. "It's a very exciting time," Toledano told WWD. "I always said that the right person would come along when all the stars aligned and that's exactly what happened last week. Simons has already begun to lay out his vision for where he can take Dior in the future and I think we are all very excited by that vision." Angies engaged!!!! Angelina Joile and Brad Pitt are engaged, the jeweller who designed Jolie's ring has confirmed this evening. Robert Procop worked closely with Pitt in creating the piece, which Jolie wore for the first time last night at a private view of the new Chinese Art collection at the LA County Museum. "Yes, it's confirmed," Pitt's manager, Cynthia Pett-Dante, told The Hollywood Reporter. "It is a promise for the future and their kids are very happy. There's no date set at this time. Brad designed the ring." Brides Week NEW YORK played host to the latest designer wedding dresses this weekend as Bridal Week once again came to the city The biggest names in bridal - including Vera Wang, Marchesa, Jenny Packham, Monique Lhuillier, Reem Acra(pictured), and Alfred Angelo - showed their spring/summer 2013 collections over the weekend, with Oscar de la Renta set to take to the catwalk today as the Week comes to a close. Oscars new home Oscar De La Renta is opening his first shop in London and, after a three-year search for the perfect location, is set to move in to hairdresser Nicky Clarke's Mount Street flagship.
Clarke, who has occupied the unit for more than 20 years, will move just along the road to 11 Carlos Place - next to Roland Mouret and Jenny Packham's stores, and just opposite the Connaught Hotel - in a deal said to be worth more than half a million pounds. Both Clarke and his landlord have refused to confirm whether he was paid the reported £500,000 premium to move, but his ex-wife and business partner Lesley Clarke said all parties are happy with the move.

Fur accents and jewel-box ornamentation at the neck (and therefore drawing attention around the face) were everywhere this season in the form of brooches like those at Bottega Veneta, so deliberately placed that it was hard to tell if they were a separate item or part of the dress, fabulous fur collars , and knit snoods that offered the same idea, but for a more downtown clientele. 
Jewel box ornamentation is the new idea of adornment, with beads, gems and stones placed where real jewelry might once have been on, say, the neck or the collar. 
Oscars fall collection opened with several dresses with a jewelry print or a jeweled embroiderer mostly pearl earrings that created a very chic effect. On the most beautiful tones of blue there were fabulous heavenly crystal embroiderers creating a very regal ad elegant look.The theme of jewelry print and embroideries continued until the highlight of ever oscar show THE GOWNS!!!!! First was a flowing taffeta large golden skirt with a divine lace top.There were taffeta,organza,velvet,satin,chiffon gowns all making a beautiful impression and really leaving me speechless. its that old school class and elegance that oscar always shows reinvented every time!!!! The color palette consisted of mainly pastels heavenly blues ad bubblegum pinks all so PRETTY!!!!
