Spring 2011 Haus Collabs!


Two of my favorite fashionistas are adding to their resume's by collaborating on new looks for future collections!!
Well, one is in actuality, and one is in theory (Aprils Fools, anyone?)

Nicole Richie's line, House of Harlow 1960, has announced plans to incorporate a line of bags to their collection. I can imagine these as being either the Nicole Richie aesthetic, i.e. Balenciaga's infamous "Motorcycle" Bag (above grid), or something that more closely relates to the line itself, such as the Thomas Wylde "Ibiza" Shoulder Bag (below). Hopefully it will be a little of both, and with prices ranging from $295 - $595, I can afford to experiment with styles!

Likewise, it had seemed that Lady Gaga took a personal interest in her role as Fashion Muse, and is collaborating with the McQueen haus for a highly anticipated Spring 2011 line. Although at the time of press release, it was a given April Fools joke ("Poisson d'Avril") I'd like to pretend for a moment it was not, and continue on believing this could happen! I can imagine it being something out of Beauty and the Beast; baroque, luxurious, statement making. Check out some of the McQueen pieces below that Gaga has worn proudly:
