Boots fight

Selected by Pola Cherie
This season it's all about heavy boots. I'm madly in love with those from Acne. But it's nice sometimes to change into flat biker boots which looks great with anything (and sexes up any look)- long maxi dress, skinny jeans or shorts.

Finally I'm in Japan and I have an Internet! Hurray! Since noticeably top hit best fashion item in Japan this season is "everything whith fur" I decided to make two different looks with this amazing Burberry Cropped Rabbit Jacket. Skinny jeans and leather biker boots makes first look casual chick. It's very windy nowadays so I never go outside without a big warm scarf around my neck. I like checked scarfs because they never go out of fashion.

Second look is elegant but still having-fun-elegance (this word describes my own personal style very well:).

I want to also admit that I love Celine's bags very much and I think Phoebe Philo is doing an amazing job. She created a new must-have items.

First look, from the top left corner: Burberry Cropped rabbit jacket, Burberry Cashmere Pink Giant Check Scarf, Roberto Cavalli Mid-rise skinny jeans, Roberto Cavalli Silk-satine and lace blouse, Celine Medium Shopper Tote Bag 3306 Dark Coffee Shiny/Croc Veins, Burberry Shearling-lined leather biker boots.

Travel in style 2: simple, comfortable & chic

Selected by Pola Cherie

Going from Europe to Asia by plane takes more or less ten hours. From Europe to Australia I bet more. First thing you consider about clothes you're going to wear during such a long journey is that they must be comfortable. The next same important thing is that they must be simple to wear to not worry about how it will look after you arrive (wrinkled, bent to wrong way etc).
Tomorrow I have a flight from Munich to Tokyo (eleven hours in a plane make me sick just by thinking about it) and I am going to wear some Uni Qlo's leggins which look like a jeans but are a way more comfortable, oversized my boyfriend's cardigan, big fur scarf which I can use also as a blanket - because I'm always freezing during a flight. It's good to take some ballerina, flat shoes to change to them inside.

Travel in style 1: pouches

Selected by Pola Cherie

When I travel I try to put jewellery, cosmetics and other small things in various pouches so that after arriving I can easly find what I need without bowling my suitcases over and making a mess around.
The best way to carry a ring is to take its box with you but when you are taking a plenty of them it's better to put them in a jewellery case like above.
When you are taking a number of necklaces or bracelets it's better to carry them each separatly in a velvet or cashmere's pouches.
Cosmetics are the easiest to pack - but remember to check if you screw properly all the caps. But the fact is after a few months of using a pouch for cosmetics it becoms dirty inside. Or maybe it's only me who lets my lipstick colour my pouch ^^??

The Blonds

Phillipe and David Blonds:
Here are some of my favourite looks from the Spring 2011 collection:

Phillipe himself:

I am a huge The Blonds deigners duo's fan. I've been seeing many stars wearing the beautiful corsets and I was wondering who has design them. I found out that The Blonds were the one who created the most impressive costumes I was seeing in a while in a music videos and on the red carpet and also that them themselves are very interesting individuals. I love the fact that they are able to have fun and not be too serious about things and that Phillipe is always taking part in a fashion show as a model - I can't stop watching the show from Fall 2010 when Phillipe came out in a gorilla's costume - it was so spectacular!

What's fashionable now around neckline

I've noticed this trend coming a while ago after a season when rocky-glamorous jewellery craze was on. After wearing a big, heavy, dangerous sometimes necklaces we couldn't just return to having a small neck-chains. There are also some extreme version like a very big ones even to the navel but lets focuse on these gorgeous Oscar de la Renta's necklaces. They are elegant, can be a point to a simple dress or round neck sweater. Sold out on net-a-porter.
