Gisele Bundchen the Fashion designer!

Supermodel Gisele Bundchen is joining some of her fellow top models and collaborating on a clothing line for retailer C&A. The line will be chic and cheap just how we Liipstik ladies on a budget like it! The only downside is it wont be available in North America as C&A only has stores in Brazil and Europe *womp*. I'm absolutely adoring that coral coloured blazer super cute!! Anyways here are some pics of Ms. Bundchen working it out in some of her designs below!

Opening Ceremony x Rodarte Autumn 2011 Lookbook

We love Opening Ceremony they have the absolute cutest pieces with that said teaming up with Rodarte is an absolute treat! The price range is kind of pricey with pieces starting at $220 and going as high as $2,220. The collection will be sold in Tokyo, NY, and LA but of course they plan to send pieces to smaller boutiques as well so don't worry if you don't live in any of these cities. I love colourful look books and I love the way they played with the lighting ,very funky just like the collection. An added bonus is that they will be doing a mens line as well, and this is the first time Rodarte has done a full mens line, which is dope! Check the images below and let us know what you think!

Designer Collaborations-- Valentino x The Gap!!

Diffusion collections are definitely the "IT" thing to do this season and we at Liipstik are loving it!! The newest collaboration is a marriage between Versace's feminine accents and Gaps utilitarian chic cargo's. The capsule is a 7-piece collection and is a big hit in Italy!! In comparison to Lanvin this collection is not as fun and versatile but I still have a few faves, loving the ruffled crop jacket and the ruffled trench, so cute, I just wish there were more styles and colours to chose from. The price points for the collection aren't super expensive but they are still on the pricey side, the line ranges from $110-$240. Check some pics below!

Lanvin Heart's H&M Runway show!!

Alber Elbaz held a fashion show last night for his H&M diffusion line, the show took place in New York City's Pierre Hotel and it was hella hot! Amazing runway decor, lovely chandeliers, and the frothiest fashionista's and fashionisto's in the land were in attendance!

The collection has really come to life for me on this runway I love them even more than I did when we posted the look book images a few weeks ago. Tomorrow the collection hits H&M and it is sure to be bananas, ladies make sure you trade in your stilettos for a pair of comfy flats or sneakers because you're going to need it in the battle for clothes!

Diary of a fab Stylist -- nOir Jewelery x DC Comics collabo

I'm all for fun and funky jewellery collaborations especially when there's a theme involved that many can identify with. Following the theme of designer and comic collabs, nOir's collab with DC Comic is hot to say the least. The bat-girl 2 finger knuckle is BADDDD!! I know my dude "Batman" would probably want to get this for his girl lol. The Gotham City ring is hot too, who wouldn't want to wear a city on their hand lol. Anyways these are just sneak peaks, so when the full collection surfaces we'll give you all the deets! Check the close ups below!

Last Collection -- Kate Moss for Topshop drops Nov 2nd!

Ms. Moss is delivering her last collection for Fashion brand Topshop Nov 2nd and boy are we going to miss her! She's been rocking with the fashion brand for the last 3yrs and so we're sad to see her go! Will this be the end of Kate Moss' design efforts? Probably not. She's apparently collaborating on a line with Chloe Green who just so happens to be the daughter of Topshop CEO Phillip Green so stay tuned for that. Here is a quick teaser video for Kate's last collection and it definitely stays true to her style, lots of flowy fabric, prints and sequins, Loves!

Lanvin for H&M first Look!!

So it's finally here a sneak peak and the highly anticipated Lanvin and H&M collection! I'm sooo excited and I'm loving what I'm seeing, this ad campaign was shot for Vogue by David Sims and the pieces look divine, obviously this isn't the full collection but its just enough to keep us wanting to see what else Alber Albaz has up his sleeve. The pieces will be available at 200 stores in Canada and the U.S on Nov 20th. I love! Loves the tuxedo jacket, can't wait to see more when they drop!!

"Tron Shoe" Disney x Jerome Rousseau Collaboration

Whenever Disney or any franchise movie company releases a movie they often sell branded items in support of their movie. Disney has a whole store dedicated to movie paraphernalia so it's no surprise Disney decided to step it up a notch, to seperate themselves from the competition. In support of their newest movie "Tron" they have teamed up with Canadian designer Jerome Rousseau to create a shoe that was a reflection of the movie without making the shoe look like it belonged in the movie. This is what Rousseau had to say about the shoe,

“In keeping with my label’s strengths, I created a style that is distinctive and strong, like the architectural nature of ‘Tron,’ yet anchored in feminine lines and luxurious constructions,” he said in a statement".

The shoes are fab but come with a hefty price tag, standing at $795 these heels are probably the most expensive movie merchandise I have seen out, come February they will be available for purchase at a special Tron pop-up shop in Los Angeles. In your opinion do you think they're worth it?
