Saint Laurent ! (UPDATE)

you guys it's so freaking amzing ... SAINT LAURENT FW 2013 RTW COLLECTION will find it's way into our little starplaza. i could cry like a 14 year old girl at a justin bieber concert, sorry for using this awful piece of shit as an example (meaning bieber not the poor 14 year old gir) but it comes close to the excitment i'm feeling regarding the arrival of the third tribute store during this holiday season: saint laurent. you may think why is she this crazy about it and why saint laurent hasen't she forgot a word there. no i haven't since (you fashionistas may already know) HEDI SLIMANE (took over the creative lead) the YVES form YVES SAINT LAURENT got delted (i know it has been a total freak out about it in the fashion world) and i'm crazy because this collection is just bonkers (positive). when i first clicked through this collection i nearly collapsed infront of my laptop. i haven't seen any grunge inspired collection this awsome since the one marc jacobs did in 1992. but take a look at it yourself (if you haven't already stumbeld upon it).






 




 


 




 


 


 




Just a few pieces from a wonderful collection, if you're interested please take a minute to check out the complete collection at style.com. yes i know those clothes are way to expensive for most of us but this collection also is a huge inspiration for a individual edgy look.

UPDATE


the tribute has now arrived at the store. since i'm a huge SAINT LAURENT fan and also really love HEDI SLIMANES work (it's insane i adore him like crazy) i bought ALOT (!!!).







 


this tribute isn't bad, i even dare myself to say it's good but (sorry) if you compare the tribute collection with the one it's based on i have to admit it is kind of dissapointing. there are many pieces which SD recreated poorly and some essentials weren't even in the store to beginn with. (the flower printed dresses or the leather jackets). sd had the chance to recreate a wonderful collection and only used 50 %. however there are still many many many things which will be very usefull to make your medolls wardrobe even more edgy and unique. as a collector i always try to pick the things which i think will have the most value in the SD future. if you want to shop the same way you need to buy as much as you can and if you haven't enough sd try to buy elegant and simple things because those are most likely to be very popular in the future. my personal highlight from this collection are the bags (all of them are simply amazing) and the YSL punk boots (3th pictur, black boots). if you want to save money try to concentrate on the accescorize. 

at the end this store was a nice surprise for me and i was glad to be able to buy this many things from it but SD please try to stick at least a little bit more to the original clothes otherwise why call those stores "tributes".

Soooo Sorry

hey i'm so sorry for not being active for almost 2 months. it's just that i started art school and i'm as busy as i haven't been for a long time. right now i'm making a bunch of new expirences every day and meeting so many new people.

but there was a time when i felt lost and lonely and my firends and family couldn't give me the stability i needed that's when i found SD and every time my life was a bit too messy i could take a little break at my place at "dollywood". don't get me wrong i still had a life outside of SD which ment alot to me and i kept working to reach my goal of getting into artschool. a goal i finaly achieved and i want to not only be a good student i want to be the best i can be. that means i need to work alot which leads me to my next point. i don't want to leave SD nor do i want to close this blog but i have to concentrate on my work right now. the only way how to do this blog thing and keeping up on my work for school is to limit the blog posts down to a total of one post each month. i can't really set a date so if you want to know when a new post is on it's way make sure to check A_Horrors suitpresentation.

ok so the one post per month starts january and for now i have some words about the latest tributes. as christmas is on its way SD has opend another tribute season. i have to say i like those tributes alot. of course all the clothes in the plaza are inspired by high fashion lables but the clothes from the tribute stores seems to be a bit closer to the original clothes.




chanel and valentino are the first two tribute store which have been released so far and both seem to be not so bad. the prices are tribute standart. the graphic qualtiys are way better than some of the older tribute. chanel may shows a lack of good accesoireses comparing to valentino. the only really bad thing about the valentino collection is the fact that you can't remove the belts from the dresses. so if you just like the belt you can't buy it without the dress atteched to it.

below are some pictures from chanels fall 2013 haute couture collection which (i think) was the collection which the tribute stor seems to be based on. so i hope you enjoyed this post and you will have a wonderful time during the holiday season.
