Balenciaga

Even though famous faces like Kristen Stewart and Salma Hayek showed up for the runway show that took place on the 27th floor of an office tower in a Parisian business complex, the entire collection wasn't wow-worthy.

Remember when models use to model for fashion ads? Lol, no? What are those thing? models? Mah dulls? My dolls?
Anyways, Kristen admits she isn’t very educated about couture brands but does know that she loves Balenciaga.

Hayek stepped out in Beverly Hills wearing shoes from Balenciago Spring 2010 collection. The mid calf length boots look like a rejected elementary school art project on insulation.

Summer is just around the corner, which means most people are hitting the gym extra hard to get in shape.
Celebs are no different than us regular folks, but the only thing is that they go the gym in style.
For Hollywood starlets, the gym walkway is often treated like a runway.
Just look at the pics above and you will see Chanel, Balenciaga and Hermes. Now that’s designer bag heaven!
Ashley Tisdale takes things to a whole new level by taking her dog with her as well as her extra large Balenciaga. I wonder if she hides her dog in her large tote while doing lunges?
Whose gym style do you love the most? I think they all look fab! How can you look bad when your extra large designer bag is overshadowing you?

I showed the pics off to the entire office and the general consensus was thumbs down.
When I think Balenciaga I think power and empowerment, but Gisele gives off this insecure look that I am not digging. And you would think they would have a better wig to use for her.
Jennifer Connelly was previously the face of the fashion label and her ads were definitely more appealing.

Fringe was a hit at the event! And to think we were starting to get over it. We are seeing fringe make another comeback except this time frilly pieces are strategically placed on sheerer, more romantic get-ups.
The sixteen-year-old Icarly star, Miranda Crossgrove upped the sexy in a very tasteful way in a nude and black flaperesque number. The very pregnant, Jenna Elfman was glowing in a sexy LBD that featured glistening fringe accents on the shoulders paired with a chunky necklace, which are both hot this season.

Nudes have also been making a comeback on the red carpet. Zoe Saldana, who was being presented with the Calvin Klein Collection Spotlight Award, looked great in a simple Klein piece paired with earthy accessories.
British starlet, Emily Blunt, looked stunning as usual in a sexy flesh-toned Dolce & Gabbana strapless dress.
Sheer’s made a cameo as well. Katie Holmes was rocking a playful sheer number by Azzedine Alaïa. She looked amazing thanks to her stylist, Suri. Yes, Suri, the fashion forward toddler helped her mom chose the season appropriate outfit that she was accessorized with Givenchy shoes and Hermes bag.
Diane Kruger and Shenae Grimes both rocked tights, which are obviously a must have during the colder months. Diane definitely nailed the look by paring her Balenciaga dress with patterned tights, which are huge this season instead of going with a safe solid.

Bring on the thighs, that’s exactly what designer Nicolas Ghesquière was thinking when he designed the Fall 2008 collection for Balenciaga. Bringing sexy back into fashion, the big trend featured throughout the collection was slit skirts. If you all remember this trend was really big in the 90’s. Girls, start working on that treadmill, because the higher the slit goes the sexier you look.
The collection doesn’t end there but featured plastics, armband sleeves and latex creating a modern look with a lot of edge. This collection was different from the floral prints Ghesquière featured for Spring 08. For Ghesquière flowers never bloom in Fall, darkness does.

All the stars showed up for last night's premiere of 'Reservation Road:' Mira Sorvino, Mark Ruffalo, Joaquin Phoenix, and Jennifer Connolly, wearing something very out of character for her.
She's usually the one in the sophisticated monotone gown that never gets her on any fashion don't lists. But she may be gracing the back pages of the US Weekly, as she showed up in head to toe Balenciaga last night--and for good reason.
Connelly is the new face of the fashion house of Balenciaga. You'll start seeing her in ads for Nicolas Ghesquière's sculptural floral-printed designs in the house's spring campaign by David Sims.

Balenciaga designer Nicholas Ghesquière is taking new territories with his new creation, the gladiator boots. The high woven leather boots are becoming a huge necessity for Spring 08 as stars such as Jennifer Connelly have been spotted sporting it.
The boots entail a lot of work with its different color stitching which ranges from black, white, yellow, red and green. These boots were definitely made for walking but were not sure how many steps it will take. To sport these shoes you must be a risk taker because it can be too much to handle. For the weaker links, check out the booties which are still hot and less intense.

Spring is always an optimistic time in fashion and for 08 everything seems to be blooming, literally. Designers from Balenciaga, Dries Van Noten and Dolce & Gabanna are all planting flirty flower motifs and sweet silhouettes that will make you feel like you are in their very own secret garden. Note: It's wise to mix and match florals with solid colors, you don't want to look like a human flower.
