Alors...ZARA!

As Rosemount Australian Fashion week kicks off in Sydney, what better way to celebrate than welcoming our first ever Zara store!


The Spanish fashion company opened its doors a few weeks ago at the Westfield Sydney, city store.


I have been long awaiting for the day that Zara would come to Australia, since I discovered their clothing in Nice and Paris in January last year.


I remember walking into the store on the Champs- Elysées and thinking how amazing everything was- such well made, high-end fashion clothing at affordable prices!


My accompanying fashionista and I worked our way through both stores finding classic pieces that we will treasure forever. One item in particular is my grey/gold, linen, A- line, high waisted skirt- which I absolutely adore!


I look forward to seeing what the Sydney Zara store has to offer this season, with its exclusive Southern Hemisphere collection, plus a handful of European inspired pieces!


Below I have put together a few Zara looks, enjoy!

Chanel prêt-à-porter automne-hiver 2011-12

Karl Lagerfeld has done it again, he has delivered an absolute masterpiece this fall/winter!

Le Grand Palais à Paris revealed the latest collection of Chanel on March 8, 2011.

I have watched this link over and over again, each time being completely amazed by the portrayal of class, elegance and creativity.

The designs are unique, exquisite with the majority of creations being predominately black, representing the dark mood of the season.

The smoky runway together with the sounds of the symphony creates an eerie yet seductive feel for the evening. Who else but Karl Lagerfeld would think to turn The Cure's 'A Forest' into an orchestral piece.

The overall collaboration is a true credit to the label, intertwining fashion, art and music - a true inspiration.
