One Chloe Bird

Chloe Elsie Shoulder Bag - SWOON - available here.

This holiday season I'm dreaming of gorgeous leather boots. My sister showed up at home yesterday in lovely J. Crew boots and now I'm obsessed with finding the perfect pair for myself. Here's the dream team:

There are some high brow labels that I adore, yet cannot readily afford. A few that top my list are Chloe, Stella McCartney, and Lanvin. However, that doesn't stop me from watching them from season to season and picking out my favourite pieces. At Paris Fashion Week, Chloe showed their Spring 2011 collection, and it seemed to have been strongly influenced by the world of ballet. All the models had their hair in tight, low buns. They all wore very unstructured ballet flats, and there was lots of satin ribbon detailing on many of the garments. I love the grace and elegance of this timeless style. Everything from the nude colours to the hair and shoes was beautiful.

Shoes: Stella McCartney

Skirt 1: Alice & Olivia

Sweater: Chloe

All available through Net-a-Porter!

I can never get enough of blazers. I don't own a creamy coloured one though and I love the one Gwyneth Paltrow is wearing in this photo.

Boots:

A great pair of leather boots can do wonders for any outfit. I like ones that hit at the knee, are closefitting - not too loose or slouchy, but without a heel. These Loeffler Randall ones are great!




And these Lanvin ones have just enough slouch!






Leather Bags:

Chloe Lily Pouch




Mulberry Bayswater Bag

The amount of photos is a tad excessive, but I just adore Kate Bosworth and her impeccable style. She always looks chic and classic at formal events, and then looks cool, relaxed, and downtown modern when dressed down. I would love to steal her closet!
