Designer Loza Maléombho has created a unique and innovative approach to couture fashion for her spring/summer 2013 collection. The pieces she has designed show off her incredible talent and daringness of her style. Her collection is inspired by the Akan tribes of Ghana and the Baoulé tribe in Côte d’Ivoire. The collection displays her African heritage while adding a modern twist with a unique aesthetic. All of her designs feature rich, detailed, and colorful prints that enhance the shapes of each garment. Her company, which has reached an international interest, stands out for its dedication to empowerment of women in Côte d’Ivoire.

Elle and Dakota Fanning go to a 'J.Estina event in complimenting spring 2013 dresses. Each one different and unique, but both are fabulous. Elle is wearing a floral dress with an A-line flowy skirt with yellow accents that compliment her rich blonde hair, and she is wearing nude low platforms that are age-appropriate. Dakota, on the other hand, is wearing a beautiful and feminine lace, sleeveless dress paired with a silver and gold cuff and silver metallic oxford flats. Both girls look feminine, beautiful and sophisticated. Which one is your favourite?

Clémence Poésy is a French actress and fashion model. You might know her from the Harry Potter series as Fleur and in Gossip Girl as Eva. She also has been seen in such advertisements like Gap and Chloé fragrance. She has a casual and effortless style, without losing a sense of fashion and chicness. She wears everything from cute flowy skirts and sandals to, edgy trousers and boots. She is my inspiration this week and hopefully she'll inspire you too!

Missed the red carpet for the Screen Actors Guild Awards? It's okay, here are some of the most memorable looks worn. At the SAGA, the red carpet was filled with everyone's favorite stars decked out in their Hollywood bests. Although awards shows are for finding out who won certain categories, I like finding out who wore what, and who stood out the most. Jennifer Lawrence and Amanda Seyfried graced the red carpet in strapless blue gowns, both with side-swept loose curls. Jennifer wore a navy Dior couture dress with a deep red lip, while Amanda matched her more fair complexion with a sapphire blue Zac Posen dress with a soft nude pink lip. Nina Dobrev and Kiernan Shipka, both wore shades of pink to the awards show, however they could be more different from each other. Nina wore a soft pink, sleeveless dress with rosettes on it by Oscar de la Renta, with a pretty curled hairstyle. Both were memorable and age-appropriate. Lastly, but not the least of my favorites, was the glamorous yet edgy Anne Hathaway in a floor-length black Giambattista Valli dress, with a sheer top and bold red lip and pixie cut.

 

Red Carpets are a great place to find new fashion trends and get inspired for your own style. Don't forget about all the upcoming events in February that bring lots of fashion like the Grammys, Oscars, and Fashion Week!
