Giambattista Valli

So remember when I said I loved all things bows and ruffles? Well Giambattista Valli is one of my favourite designers because he is ALL about bows, ruffles, feathers...and the list goes on!

Recently, Emma Stone made headlines when she wore a Giambattista Valli outfit to the premiere of Friends With Benefits. I absolutely adore the skirt!

Emma Stone is wearing Giambattista Valli sweater and skirt, Christian Louboutin Pigalle Plato pumps, Salvatore Ferragamo clutch and Jack Vartanian jewelry

By the way, I also love Salvatore Ferragamo. I know it can sometimes be a bit old lady but how can you go wrong when their classic symbol is a bow? 

Speaking of which, here's is what happened to me a couple of days ago. So my friends always call me very prude-like because I have a very preppy style. This was confirmed over the past week when I volunteered at Dress For Success, a non-profit that helps unemployed individuals dress to find employment. I pulled out a cute black top with small beige polka dots for our client and one of the other volunteers called it too old-lady. Sad face!! It was completely a top I would pick out for myself!!

Sorry...getting back on track to Giambattistia Valli. Here are a couple of pieces that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE in his Fall 2011 Collection. 





There are way too many so you can see the full show here: Giambattista Valli at Couture Fall 2011
