Mid-Week Inspiration: Crystal Encrusted Stockings

I absolutely loved the Doo.Ri Fall 2009 Collection shown last week at New York's Fashion Week. What especially stood out were the crystal encrusted lace stockings. In continuing with my apparent stocking themed week I am inspired to bedazzle some of my own lacey tights with sequins and paillettes!

GASP! New Inspiration!!

I haven't been inspired from current high fashion in a long time. This one made me stop dead in my tracks and gasp for air when I opened my August issue of Vanity Fair. Claudia Schiffer stars in the Autumn/Hiver 2008-09 ad campaign for Chanel and she and the ads are gorgeous! I love the half lace half opaque stockings and just plain everything about it... the mood, the messy brunette bob, the half moon manicure.... I'm in heaven!! Thank you Karl!
