Balenciaga Spring/Summer 12 Ad Campaign

Behind the scenes video – almost better than the editorials of this campaign, seriously. You can tell on the models faces that what they say about Balenciaga is really true: There is a different feeling about wearing something of Balenciaga. You just feel it. It doesn’t feel like anythingg else.

Summer shopping on Farfetch.com :-)

Farfetch.com logo

Ach, the joy of discovering a new beautiful fashion e-commerce site that sells my favorite designers and has a gorgeous UI and design is a big pleasure to me :-) Especially when it’s late at night, I’m done working and already in bed with my iPad. That is definitely the best time to catch my attention!

Farfetch.com offers an easy-to-shop experience, designed as a fast moving magazine that keeps you focused and want to explore more and more. It is London based, and offers fashion for sale from all the big yet indie designers, like Isabel Marant, Sylvia Toledano, Marc Jacobs and more.

As a girl, not to girly but still – a girl, my summer addictions that are already starting to wake up now, a little before spring time  – are designer handbags and dresses. I just can’t get enough of those and honestly believe that you can’t have too many summer dresses or handbags. The variety of designer handbags on farfetch.com is enormous, and it’s really hard to choose because they are all so pretty. Now, who can choose between Proenza Schouler, Mulberry, Balenciaga, Givenchy and more? Not me, that’s for sure.

Here are just a few examples:

Designers handbags on farfetch.com. Marc Jacobs

Designers handbags on farfetch.com. Valentino

designers handbags on farfetch.com. Sylvia Toledano

As for the designers dresses on farfetch.com, I think that it would be so easy to renew my entire summer wardrobe just by clicking and clicking! It’s endless and so pretty. My favorite dresses there are definitely coming from Diane Von Furstenberg, Isabel Marant and Carven, which are always so feminine and compliments every woman’s figure, like these for example:

Designers dresses on farfetch.com. Diane Von Furstenberg

Designers dresses on farfetch.com. Diane Von Furstenberg

Designers dresses on farfetch.com. Isabel Marant

Designers dresses on farfetch.com. Isabel Marant

Designers dresses on farfetch.com. Carven

So on your next online fashion shopping spree, I highly recommend checking out farfetch.com‘s gorgeous range. You’re in for a lot of fun!

Sunglasses summer 2010



I was recently invited to a sunglasses presentation, where all the major brands were presented to journalists. It was a very pleasant presentation, yet early in the morning, produced by Hila Rahav (huge PR agency in Israel, mega pros).

I picked a few models to show here, of those that I liked best. So here’s a peak at what’s about to be hot in sunglasses this summer:

Starting with Balenciaga:

And to Valentino -

Dior -

And to my favorite brand – Bottega Veneta:

I hope you liked it :-)

Wrapping up Resort 2010 RTW collections and moving on!

It’s boiling hot here. Steamy. Nobody leaves the AC for no reason. It’s all about moving from the ac in the house to the ac in the car and then to the ac at the office/restaurant/cafe or anywhere else. No meetings outside for no reason.

That’s what the summer in Israel is like. And since it’s mid summer here already, I feel like moving on to the Pre-Fall collections. I haven’t seen any yet, but I hope that they are full of nice dresses like this summer is.

In order to wrap this summer up, I just wanted to take a last look on two of my favorites, Balenciaga and BottegaVeneta ‘s Resort Collections RTW for 2010. I can’t stop loving these two, especially because I think that their designs are endless and has very little to do with trends. The best part about them is that you can wear their designs anywhere, any hour of the day, and every year, again and again. They’re classic, flattering, forever comfortable and beautiful. Just one last sneak peak. promise :-)

I’ve missed very little of it. I know them all, I’ve seen them all. Besides all that I have uploaded here already in my previous posts, I just wanna have these (very) few and I’m done.

The first four are from Balenciaga -

1. A short beige classic dress, so nice!

2. Another one in beige from Balenciaga, RTW anywhere -

3. Balenciaga in grey, gorgeous!

4. Last one – Balenciaga’s white top and white skirt. I just love it:

Now moving to my last Bottega Veneta’s picks for this collection:

1. Bottega Veneta’s black balloon dress -

2. Bottega Veneta’s outfit in black and prune:

3. And for the last one – Bottega Veneta’s forever classic outfit – black and white -

Bottega Veneta white shirt black pants

I am now officially ready to move on with the seasons and check out all that is new and I haven’t yet seen.

Hope you liked it,

Hilla
