FB #8: Lookbooks!!

I do not look at lookbooks often but when I do, it is only to get inspiration and ideas.  I want to see looks having no idea what designer or price point it is, that way I am not bias just because I know it is expensive.  Therefore, I usually do not watch the ones that are all of one designers collection.  I also thing it is much better when they are videos that don't require any clicking through.  The one I have posted here is great in my opinion.  I love these girls look, and the whole story they put together is entertaining and sexy.

FB #7: Trunk ShowVisit Ferragamo.com



Ferragamo had an online trunk show for its Autumn/Winter '13 Collection. Model Lily Kwong is wearing all of the pieces.  There is also a digital model you can style yourself like a paper doll! This allows you to mix-and-match digitally to find the perfect outfit for you! It's so fun I literally spent about 35 minutes putting together my favorite outfit.  I wish I could post it here but I could not copy the image :(  I think this is an amazing idea, and one that all designers should try because it seems as if everything is going digital these days! Here is the link to the online Ferragamo Trunk Show, Enjoy :)

FB #6: Runway Video!!

The Saint Laurent Spring 2014 Ready to Wear show was dazzling!! I love how this video captures the essence of Saint Laurent.  My favorite outfit was the black and pink sequined top with the brown animal print skirt.  I liked some of the commentary in the background. However, I'm not sure if I agree on how practical this line is but then again this didn't show the entire collection.  I liked how each comment was from someone different so we get differing viewpoints from men and women of different ages.
