Gossip Boy
I'm Chuck Bass
I must admit something.. I’m usually not the kind of person to have a crush on celebrities but exceptions should be make. And so i did… meet my mc dreamy ( don't take this too serious ! ) Meet Chuck Bass played by Ed Westwick , who’s the bad boy of my 2nd favorite TV show ( SATC stays numero uno of course ) .
For Those who have been living on another planet. Ed westwick plays bad boy chuck bass in the big hit show gossip girl.
‘' I'm chuck bass’’ that’'is his line. He is obnoxious - but hilarious , he can be very charming at times. Either you love him or despite him. He’'Is Mysterious , handles everything with flair and has a fabulous style !
Inspired by my crush and my male friends complaining i only posted blogs that are useful to woman i decided to make a post for all my fabulous men.
Why Chuck bass ? He’'Is young, he’s rich,mysterious and he has style. He is very fashion forward and makes formal wear casual.He is doing exactly what fashion is about …making it fun!
Designer Eric Daman styled the characters of Gossip Girl included Ed Westwick who plays Chuck. But also off-screen Ed westwick has a great sense of style. It is very casual in formal way and that what i love about the styling of this character. He really dresses up and men should take a lesson from that.
Say hello to the trousers and save the jeans for a lazy Sunday. Make a individual trademark such as a scarf or corsage instead of the same old watch . I love how they styled him with a lot of corsages . He shows that boutonnieres are not only for wedding event !
The looks i selected , are very trendy but timeless looks. I was inspired to found looks that were almost the same as Chuck was wearing them.
Take your own inspiration out of it and make them your own on your own budget.
For all my fabulous friends this is for you ! And ladies eat your heart out with your man , brother, boss or male friends !

Resort 2010
Take a look at the resort 2020 collection of 9 designers. Each different but all fabulous, feminine and sensual . Enjoy !
CHANEL
"I wanted to reinvent the mystique," said Karl Lagerfeld, talking about locating the collection in one of Coco Chanel's favorite summer places…venice.
this Chanel collection is all about movement. I love the loose silhouetes , splashed of color but still very chanel. This collection is all about classic elegance.It also gives a romantic venice feeling.
I'd loved every piece of it, it was so hard to choose these 5 pieces. The house of chanel has always been one of my favorites, i just love their simplicity and classic looks. It is sooo luxurious so stylish and oh so fabulous !
MATTHEW WILLIAMSON
Another fabulous colorfull collection of Matthew williamson as how we know it. Breezy silhouettes and bold prints. It is indeed a very exotic but strong collection.
I love how he mix colors and prints . As seen with almost all the other shows , matthew williamson cllection is also very femine and simple. The collection stands out in his use of prints and colors, but the shapes are very minimalistic showing us that this is a season of easy glamour !
EMILIO PUCCI
Another fabulous designer known for his prints.
His clothes always makes me happy and give
me that same feeling when i arrive at the Caribbean.
The collections showed some beautiful graphic . Although it is a very beachy collection it still gives that rock chic street feeling .
I got a feeling of lunching and partying at yachts out of this collection. It just screams wear this with a breeze !
BASSO & BROOKE
"We wanted to find a balance between reality and fantasy," said Bruno Basso.Clearly he’s the master behind the bold prints that combines so well with Christopher Brooke easy shapes.
Fantasy it is ! i love how they make the extraordinary so ordinary. Because of the easy shapes it is so wearable and still very glamorous while it’s still very high fashion. One other thing i like about some of the prints is that it doesn't make sense but it works so well. What i mean with that , it is a an art. It doesn't have a pattern you can follow , it’s just a fabulous explosion of creativity !
MARNI
"She's a kooky, really rich girl, who likes to play a little with couture pieces but mixed in a young way, slightly haphazard and mad." That was Consuelo Castiglioni's though on making the resort 2010 collection. Hello ! Isn't that what we always want ?! I know i do !
Marni never fails to give you that luxury feeling. To Me it represent woman who know where they going and who don't take sh*t !
Vintage feeling of clothes,silk and tweed fabrics but most of all very feminine in a almost masculine way .
Love it !
MOSCHINO CHEAP & CHIC
This collection is all about graphic and colorful details.Again it is a feminine collection in a masculine way. Oversized and layering were key elements. I love how simple it is but yet the colors and prints make this collection outstanding .
JUST CAVALLI
If i ever could meet one designer , it would be Roberto cavalli ( and John Galliano ). To me this designer is the most fabulous of all ! Cavalli’c collection always blows me away. It so feminine , so sophisticated and so sexy ! Besides you can always count on Cavalli for some animal prints. Witch appeals to my bad girl inside !
What is so fabulous about this collection is it translate to well to every day life. Hints of animal prints to glam he outfits up while it contains a lot of office friendly looks.
As seen in most of the resort looks,the color navy in model one looks so good and sophisticated with the browns. It just absolutely fabulous !
SONIA RYKIEL
A collection that is tomboyish , flirty and young and sexy. The collection contains a lot of knitwear know from Sonia rykiel. Bold colors makes this collection fun and small details makes the collection feminine.
This is a perfect collection that represent the fun and youthness you have in your twenties !
PHILOSPHY
Alberta Ferretti carried a bit of the safari theme from her main line into her younger, flirtier Philosophy collection. Inspired with a Moroccan mood through print it contains a collection of collarless silhouettes, layering of girlish, summery dresses over Ferretti's version of chalwar pants.
I just love the simplicity and how sophisticated it turned out to be. Very sexy and sensual in an unexpected way. It so says easy going and flirty !
Conclusion
a Period of minimalistic clothes. Simplicity , loose silhouettes. The color blue, almost like a navy is seen almost in every collection. Use of prints . Either prints only or a dash of print to make it a very interesting feeling and look. But most of all the collections were very feminine and sensual. It was all about movement and little usage accessories. All with all another fabulous season to look forward too ! Just enjoy have fun with prints and graphics and keep it simple !
