// ELLE ITALIA JANUARY 2010 \\

Woooow...... Wait til you see the pics from January's Elle Italia's cover shoot. 

The shoot photographed by the infamous Alexei Hay & modeled by the beautiful Liya Kebede, is combined of 2 former trends that I have previously posted about - Big Hair & Tutu's. 

I was sold from this alone but alas that was not it - Rollerskates & Haute Couture dresses are also a main feature in this editorial & I have to say, the 4 dominant elements mixed together, make for a fantastic grunge/hobo chic-esque styled shoot!!!!

Sure why not have a look for yourself & see what you think (oooooh & do let me know what you think - I luv to hear other peop's thoughts) ;)

Arrivedercci!!!!!!!!

// BALLET BEAUTIFUL \\

There is something about the Tulled Tutu that just captivates me.

They are so flirty, feminine & pretty which is how every girl should feel morning, noon & night in my perfect world :)

Whenever I wear my black piece I rewind back to the beginning when I was a young girl in ballet classes concentrating more on twirling round & round enjoying my wild imagination, envisioning myself as the prettiest princess in All the land rather than learning the actual art of ballet dancing!

And since I saw the 'one' Carrie Bradshaw wears in the opening credits of Sex and the City for the first time, I knew instantly that I just had to have the exact replica some day & that day is now....... 

I am currently working on project tutu & look forward to showcasing my completed article (whether it will resemble anything like Carrie's or more like a big mass of tulle with some material attached is yet to be seen)
In the meantime I want to make a tribute & share with you some of my fave images of 'Le TuTu'.

Enjoy!
