Why is Alexander Wang not my uncle?

i know that this is an absurd amount of posts for one day but i just couldn't resist sharing...a friend just showed me this picture...ohhhh my god i want to be this baby. Chanel bag? check. Fur coat? check. Adorable hair? check. oh, and growing up getting to say "Alexander Wang is my uncle"? check.

Gucci at 90

Frida Giannini said that her two main sources of inspiration for Gucci's 90th anniversary show was 1970's vintage and Florence Welch, the lead singer of Florence and the Machine. A self-professed Florence fan/borderline freak, I was super excited to see what this collection would bring, and I wasn't disappointed. Bold colours like turquoise and mustard yellow dominated the collection, and the sheer chiffon evening gowns would be perfect for any red carpet event. Also, I can 100% see Florence on stage pounding that massive drum in one of these gorgeous gowns...hopefully my wishes come true because that would be (for lack of better words) fucking awesome. Also, sorry for the photo overload, I just couldn't narrow down such a fabulous collection any more than this.

Watercolour Wonderland

This is the first time I've properly paid attention to Erdem, and I'm so glad I did...this collection is beautiful and so mysterious. And the print is simply amazing- like Monet took a trip down the Rabbit Hole or something.
