Is Megan Fox the new Angelina Jolie?

With the long dark hair, tattoos, puckery lips, vampire-esqe style and all, the similarity between Megan Fox and Angelina Jolie is uncanny. I'd say watch out Angie.Angelina Jolie and Megan FoxMegan FoxAngelina JolieMegan FoxAngelina JolieMegan Fox

Tous

Tous is a Spanish luxury brand that's now being endorsed by Kylie Minogue. I loved their heart pendants that were being advertised everywhere for Valentine's Day. Different from the everyday plain jane heart pendant giving it a unique je ne sais quoi! You can find items at their online store and there's a store in Yorkdale mall.

Alexander McQueen Fall 2008

With his theatrical runway shows and controversial designs, I would without hesitation say that Alexander McQueen is my favourite designer. I've loved him since being with Givenchy for most of his career, and then with Gucci more recently. And now he has a collection called McQ that's mostly denim and can be found at net-a-porter.com. Look at the similarity between the first dress here and Kenley Collins wedding dress from Project Runway Season 5 in my previous post.Alexander McQueen Fall 2008Alexander McQueen Fall 2008Alexander McQueen Fall 2008Alexander McQueen Fall 2008Alexander McQueen Fall 2008Alexander McQueen Fall 2008Alexander McQueen

Balenciaga Spring 2008

Check out these wonderfully printed shoulder-padded style dresses from Balenciaga's Spring 2008 line. Very modern gladiator, especially with the tall sandal boots. Also, in 2008 Jennifer Connelly did these advertisements for Balenciaga. Take a look at the similarity between these dresses and a couple of Kenley Collins creations from Project Runway Season 5 in my previous post.Jennifer Connelly in BalenciagaJennifer Connelly Balenciaga AdvertisementJennifer Connelly Balenciaga AdvertisementBalenciaga Spring 2008Balenciaga Spring 2008Balenciaga Spring 2008Balenciaga Spring 2008Balenciaga Spring 2008Balenciaga Spring 2008Balenciaga Spring 2008

Project Runway's Kenley Collins

The vintage inspired designer, Kenley Collins, placed 3rd in Season 5 of Project Runway, however she was my favourite designer of the season. Her style is very old-Hollywood or modern day calendar girl. Check out her website where she has items for sale, including hair accessories. Her attitude didn't win her any points and she was also criticized for ripping off other major designers work.
