Back-to-front-to-back shoes and Pier Atkinson

These are by Romeo Pires. I was been shown around by the lovely PR, and we got to these shoes and my mind did some really weird thing. I didn't understand, i didn't like them, i did like them, i hated them, i loved them, i... i.... *brain explode*
I had to try them on, and surprisingly comfortable would you believe. I think my mind has settled, and i do like them! Would really mess with peoples mind wearing them waiting at a bus stop or something! Ha! Well done Romeo Pires!I have been meaning to post about Pier for a while, i have used a few of his headdresses in a few shoots recently. They are so fun, and the new collection takes inspiration from Barbie, anything to do with Barbie's 50th birthday celebration that has been taking place for the past 4 months? I especially love Barbie's backcombed, teased, electrocuted hair, something i sometimes aspire and model my hair styles on! His collections are a mix of head pieces, masks, hats and fascinators.


Below- SS09 Pier Atkinson (ignore the modelling)
I also spied a collaboration Pier has done for the current AW09 Ashish collection. That is also pretty brilliant. Look forward to hearing and seeing more collabs with the brilliant Milliner!

Trends to miss...?

Now i know that this blog is about things i love. Things that inspire me, things i like and would like to scream to the world. But there are also some things that i am not sure about such as these...now i don't hate these, as hate is such a strong word. I guess these are just my"Hmmm, ok, lets see the next look..." but your thoughts and comments welcome.....Pam Hogg- A little bit new rave-y, Boombox era for my liking. To be fair the rest of the collection was fun, a range of metallic geometric leotards and dresses. Some things i would wear(to the shock and horror of my peers), but this post is trends to miss so.... The reason to miss this trend is A) Real fur...?(I've got a fur coat but its vintage, i am not a fan of new real fur) B) Multi coloured real fur- Yukerella! C) The yeti look!
House of Blue Eyes- One word: BALLS!
Barbie Runway show- In a way i secretly covet this collection, but that is the 6 year old in me. Add 17 more years and i say NO! I mean really it was a collection of dresses and situations we have seen Barbie in over the years but this...Celia doesn't Love! For this instance I think its the Diane Von Furstenberg-esqu dress and the large Barbie head. No screw it, the dress is OK, it's the big head! Oh and whats that i spy- is that a Barbie luggage range i see in the near future...?(Swoon)Iceberg- Sequined bingo wings- I guess that one way to hide them....Antonio Marras- Yes we are in the grips of the recession but lets try and live a little! Right lady(in the picture), get some scissors, crop that jacket to the belt, carelessly toss that scarf over your shoulder, tie your hair in a high top knot and swap the grey socks for a flash of yellow! Hey presto...Celia Loves!Blumarine- In the words of S-Club-7: "Hootchie mama show your Na-Na!' I guess on some poeple it would look amazing. Cheryl Cole could carry this off well! (That was a compliment!)

Right i am finished been negative! Phew, that took it out of me! More posts to come of things i love love love!
