Spring is here and of course you want to know what styles of shoes are most fashionable in the new season.
As usual some trends from the previous season stay with us for another couple of months and you can wear them with dignity. And there are a few new ones that will complement our spring wardrobe.
Platform sandals
If you are a real fashionista this trend just needs to be in your wardrobe as almost every designer paid attention to it and created truly nice pieces for us to wear. They are perfect for many reasons. First, they are beautiful. They come in bright hues and original designs, from cage look to the one providing lots of coverage. Second, they are more comfortable to wear than ordinary heels. And third, they are super-glamorous and some celebrities have already been spotted wearing those.
Mary Janes
These shoes are ideal for office and the girls who simply love elegant footwear. The shoes come in various colors and can be very strict or exremely fresh and colorful. What you choose depends on you! Peep-toe Mary Janes have returned too!
Sky-high Heels
Despite all the arguments this type of shoes will always exist as there are plenty of women who are ready to suffer bunions and feet deformations to look stylish like Posh. Many brands presented high stilettos in their ranges, from classic Burberry to rock-chic DSquared2.

Everyone likes classic in his own way. Some just adore it and wear pieces of this kind daily. Others prefer these items for special occasions. But I don’t know a person who would say that classic is bad.
Burberry is classic, and that’s all we can say. But we want to say more, especially after success the fashion show of Burberry Prorsum had yesterday (February 23). It was broadcast in 3D and could be seen in five places simultaneously. (Read Burberry show in 3D.) In London plenty of celebrities watched it live.
And there was a lot to watch. Christopher Baily was clearly inspired by military trend that became extremely ppulat during the last few seasons. Lots of military jackets, suits and coats were featured on the runway. But these were different from those we are used to seeing in recent seasons. They were more modern, very similar to real military outfits men wear at battle fields.
Besides military style we see many very feminine pieces: light fur-coats, skirts that narrow down to knees, pleated dresses, lacy blouses and absolutely fabulous thigh-high boots. To tell you the truth, I’ve never been a huge fan of these boots, but Burberry ones seem fantastic to me!

It’s obviously the new stage in development of fashion industry as well as the film one. Burberry Prorsum became the first brend who broadcast their fashion show at London Fashion Week live in 3D. It’s a real breakthrough. People could watch the show simultaneously in five different places: New York, Paris, Dubai, Tokyo and Los Angeles.
But while guests abroad had to put on retro red and green glasses to enjoy a simulation front row experience, the red carpet in London was dotted with stars rocking Burberry creations from previous collections.
Lots of celebrities were willing to attend the presentation but only few really had a chance. Among those were: Kate Hudson in a bottle-green sequin Burberry dress, Twilight star Kirsten Stewart in a richly pleated skirt from the S/S 2010 range, fashionista Mary-Kate Olsen in a gorgeous black coat, Claire Danes and others.
Everyone was excited with anticipation. When the lights went out all the talks stopped. Burberry Cadette Girls show began… Lots of military-inspired garments, famous Burberry coats, pleated dresses and so much popular thigh-high boots captured attention. (Read a detailed review of the show.)

Military style has been popular for lots of seasons in succession and Spring/ Summer 2010 is not an exception. But the style for the new season is a bit different. It has evolved from the looks of the 19th century into the modern softer one.
Green and grey are dominant colors in the pallette. Strict sharp forms with too little femininity look pretty on women but I would never call that stylish. Burberry Prorsum items are also icnluded though they hardly belong to the military style.
Lily Donaldson, Isabeli Fontana, Liya Kebede, Sasha Pivovarova grace the issue.

Many still don’t know the difference between the iconic Burberry London and new Burberry Blue Label. And no wonder why as both brands produce fabulous clothing of high quality.
However, Burberry Blue Label is a specified version of the original Burberry brand, but is more youghful and sassy. The Blue Label merchandise features garments that are aimed at smart young generation. Smaller sizes are available in order to appeal more directly to the Japanese market.
You can’t buy goods by the label anywhere outside of Japan. But you can get those from Japanese on-line stores. Price range is also similar to the regular Burberry London.

Emma Watson is incredible! She was perfect in all Harry Potter parts and she seems an ideal model for ad campaigns as well.
As you know she has been working with Burberry Prorsum since June 2009 and as pratice shows she brings lots of attention to the brand. So, there is no wonder they love her so much. They say that Emma embodies ‘classic effortless beauty’ which is exactly what the label wants to see in the adverts.
The new Spring-Summer 2010 campaign features the actress together with her sibling Alex and three other male models. All the young people look chic and classy and represent the new generation of fashion-conscious Britons.
Christopher Bailey, Burberry’s Chief Creative Officer, commented:
This campaign celebrates our heritage and our timeless Burberry icons. The energy of the images and the dynamic cast reflect the different attitudes and expressions of the Burberry guy and girl.”

Yesterday night (December 9) the British Fashion Awards 2009 were held at the royal Courts of Justice. The ceremony that marked the finale to the British Fashion Council’s 25th anniversary celebrations was sponsored by Swarovski.
The event was wholly dedicated to fashion and those people who have contributed to its development within the last 25 years. Over 500 people arrived including industry leaders, celebrities, designers, retailers, models and journalists.
Lots of celebrity women appeared on the red carpet wearing sumptuous outfits. Singer-turned designer Victoria Beckham wore one of her own creations – a floor-sweeping silk crepe Eighties-style gown with crystal embroidery on the shoulderpads. She looked gorgeous as always.
The Bristish supermodel Kate Moss opted for a similar-to-Posh’s dress – a sheer black Flamenco-style tiered dress with a super-long train. To cover her dignity a bit Kate donned a black blazer. Beautiful!
Bond-girl Olga Kurylenko looked stunning in a short black dress and a bolero, which she paired with black suede pumps and a clutch.
Designer Myleene Klass looked absolutely fabulous in a black frock with sheer sleves and a pair of perfect red shoes.
The other two girls in black were Eva Herzigova and Daisy Lowe who both rocked wonderful long gowns with cutaways and long splits.
Rising star in modelling business Amber le Bon sported a black mini and a blazer together with a pair of grey pumps and a white bag.
See more stylish women on the red carpet…

Taylor Swift is a girl I would talk hours about. She is beautiful and fashion-conscious, very creative and talented. I could say a lot more but she will do it better herself.
Taylor is a covergirl for this Sunday’s T: The New York Times Style Magazine. She is featured on a few glam photos and looks really wonderful.
She wears couture clothing, including a Chanel dress, a metallic Burberry Prorsum jacket, a Prada Swarovsli crystal top and other outfits form best fashion names.
Besides, the songbird gives an extensive interview about her life and songs. Speaking to T’s editor Lynn Hirschberg the singer reveals lots of facts we haven’t known about her.
Taylors tells about being an outisder at school and her double life as a result of this:
I would sit on the edge of class and watch people interact with each other. I’d watch guys flirt with cool girls and I would watch best friends talk, and I would go home and write about it. If you listen to my albums, it’s like reading my diary.”

So much awaited and anticpated collection by Burberry Prorsum finally was unveiled and closed the London Fashion Week that celebrated its 25th Anniversary.
Burberry that showcased their collections in Milan for many years returned to London to make the celebration even brighter.
Trench coats were the main pieces in the Spring/Summer 2010 collection.
The trench has been reinvented and intended specifically for the 18- to 25-year-olds in the audience.
Beigh color is one of the trendiest at the moment and military motives are still fresh, so the Burberry trench will become something like a must-have for fashionistas all over the globe, and especially in England with its rainy weather.
Beside the trench, Burberry experimented with short dresses made of light airy fabrics. Materials were twisted, pleated and draped, something Burberry had never done.
The colors are all subdued: grey, mint green, lavender, rosy, yelowish, etc. Nothing was bright or catchy.
The whole collection gives the impression of luxe, glamour and calmness, and this is what it was meant for.

Does this mean the world economy is really recovering from the crisis or the designers just don’t want to miss the celebration of London Fashion Week 25th anniversary?
Hard to say. But what is sure is that the Scottish designer, Jonathan Saunders decided to join the string of top designers – including Burberry, Pringle and Matthew Williamson – to return to the British capital for the Spring/Summer 2010 shows in September.
Jonathan said:
I am absolutely delighted to be returning to show in London this September. London is where I’m based. I have a studio here and it’s very close to my heart and I also have a lot of friends who show in London. Where you show is a combination of where you feel creative and where your business is.”
We are glad to hear such news too. It means we will have a chance to enjoy new amazing designs from the couturier. Can’t wait to see what he presents!
Jonathan Saunders is popular with celebrities, his fan list includes such big names as Thandie Newton and Sienna Miller. He has shown collections at New York Fashion Week for the past two years.
Harold Tillman chairman of the British Fashion Council said:
We are delighted that Jonathan has announced his return to London today as part of our 25 year celebrations. The excitement ahead of September continues to grow.”
Last month, Burberry Prorsum, that prefers to shows in Milan, announced the label will be closing London Fashion Week to mark its anniversary. This is what creative director Christopher Bailey said:
London is our home – it’s the heart of this global luxury brand and the centre of all our creativity.”
