Life in plastic, it's fantastic!

Do you remember the song by AQUA called "Barbie Girl" that was very-very popular years ago? Well, I do. And actually seems that singers have known about the future trend. There is a line there "LIFE IN PLASTIC, IT'S FANTASTIC". And now look on trends that surround us! Plastic shoes and bags! Sometimes you should listen to the music with attention because probably you can hear a future fashion trend! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know that many fashionistas like plastic bags last year. But seems that this spring and summer this trend doesn't plan to go awy from the stage. Choosing this trend don't forget that you show the whole world the content of your bag. I'm not sure that in some situations it's OK. For me it's like to show my private life. But it is actually can be a spice of the whole look! So maybe we should try who doesn't have it yet?
Do you like this trend? And what do you prefer more: plastic shoes or plastic bags?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Inspiration or Plagiarism?

We all know that "NEW" is well forgotten old. Of course fashion is cyclical. New trends often remind us something that we already have seen. The key word "REMIND"! But where is the verge when the inspiration is over and a plagiarism starts? I found these photos and think that there is nothing about inspiration here! Only plagiarism. Photos in the right are collections that were made in 2013. Dior, Moschino, Celine and Prada are brands that actually not cheap at all. Many people can't afford their clothes. In this case can they do everything you see below? I think such brands MUST do something new and unique. I don't think they can't be inspired by older collections of other designers but in this case I think there is no place of inspiration, only plagiarism! How others can blame brands from fast fashion in copying when the luxe ones do the same? 

What are thinking about it? I really want to know!

Edith Head - Dior

Geoffrey Beene - Celine

Andre Courreges - Moschino Cheap&Chic

Andre Courreges - Prada

June by Christian Louboutin

Of course Pigalle by CL is forever BUT I like these June heels so much! And actually don't even know in what color they are more beautiful. Probably the snake one? What are you thinking about this? And what is your favourite Louboutin's pair of shoes?

What celebrity in your mind rocks these heels better?

Be The Queen with DOLCE & GABBANA
