A fruity fairy tale

My inspiration for this Spring/Summer 2012 look comes from 2 wonderful collections: Louis Vuitton and Dolce & Gabbana. Though I'm a Chanel fan, these 2 collections were the ones that struck me the most for Spring/Summer 2012.

First up, Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2012, A Fashion Fairytale, designed by Marc Jacobs. The set for the show was so beautiful with the models on carousel! What I love about the collection are the sweet pastel hues, feminine cuts and the adorable lace collars!
Next, Dolce & Gabbana Spring/Summer 2012, A Glamorous and Fruity Celebration. The best part of the collection are the cheerful summer fruity prints ! The pieces I love are the soft flowy dresses, totally feminine! To complete the summer look, the woven baskets and bags are just the cutest accessories.

My outfit has a mix of pastel, cute collar, feminine cut and fruity prints, accessorised with woven accessories: My own Fruity Fairy Tale.

Dress: Vintage
Pearl Collar: Chinatown
Woven Briefcase: Far East
 Woven shoes: Thrifted (at only USD3!)
Socks: Gmarket



Vogue has the most wonderful pictures of the 2012 shows, check them out. Which is your favourite collection?
