Diary of a Fab Stylist -- Burberry Studded Motorcycle Jacket!!

So while checking out pics from the fashion week runways I came across this studded beauty. Model Charlotte Wiggins is modelling an extraordinary studded Burberry motorcycle jacket complete with spiked hardware and luxe fabrics for their Spring 2011 collection. I'm kinda over the whole studded-out everything look but I'm salivating over this jacket. So because I'm completely obsessed I decided to check some footage from the Burberry show to see how the jacket moves on the runway and came across this crazy clip of a model taking a horrible tumble on the runway during fashion week while wearing the fabulous coat. Check the clip below and try not to laugh lol!!

Shoe Fab -- Christian Siriano for Payless Spring 2011

So last week Project Runway alum, Christian Siriano debuted his spring 2011 collection at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week and the models were wearing his shoes from his Payless collection for spring as well. These shoes are baaaddd, like I want all of them lol, Siriano was apparently inspired by African, Chinese and Indian culture for this collection.

The heels on these joints are so dope, my only concern about these shoes is when they debut for Payless in the spring is that Payless will tone down the runway versions of the shoes to make them more mainstream. I hope they don't change the original too much mainly because they look hot as is and I'm sure a lot of fashionista's will be hitting up Payless to get their hands on these releases, especially since they will be under $50, what a steal!!

Liipstik NYFW Picks -- Jason Wu Spring 2011!

*Click to enlarge image

Jason Wu's spring collection by far has got to be my favourite to date for New York Fashion Week. Wu knows how to dress a woman judging by the flattering silhouettes seen on the models, the looks were soft and feminine and the dresses were very fairytale-like and romantic. The whole collection came together very well keeping structured looks to a minimum, while still incorporating pleated trousers and great blazers to tie everything together. I can actually see myself in almost all these looks because it caters to women of all age groups. By the way loving the actual runway, it looks like a big water slide and it really allows the garments to stand out. LOVES!

Liipstik NYFW Picks -- BCBG Max Azria Spring 2011

*click to enlarge image

BCBG kept the neutrals going adding a pop of colour for their collection, the pieces were very lightweight and flowy keeping it airy yet chic. I noticed there were a lot of asymmetrical silhouettes with daringly short hems, which is perfect for showing off toned gams. Fave piece was the first dress perfect lbd with a little edge and a whole lotta sex appeal!

Celeb Offsprings -- 4yr old Kingston Rossdale sits Front Row at Edun for Fashion Week!!

As we all know its FASHION WEEK in NYC, everybody who's anybody is hitting up the tents and people are taking notes at who's sitting front row, but did you ever think that a 4 yr old would be holding down a coveted front row spot?

Check out Gwen Stefani's son Kingston who is looking super fresh in a striped blazer, dark denim and some vintage inspired worker boots. Can we say SOO adorable? His mom is a fashionista who dances to her own drum so its only right little Kingston follows in mommy's footsteps. Kingston accompanied his papa Gavin Rossdale to the Edun Spring 2011 show, more pics below!
