Ah, Giovanna! Pt 5 - Spring/Summer 2011 Fashion Weeks Style

During the Fashion Weeks, seeing what my favourite fashionistas are wearing is often just as fun, exciting and inspiring (and at times even more so) as seeing the runway collections themselves. I thought I would start the fashion recap with my favourite: Giovanna Battaglia

Neutrals

As Giovanna proved in a previous post: Beige is NOT boring!


Valentino dress and kitten heels.


How cool are those boots! Love the ruffled front of the jacket.

Colours

Giovanna is certainly not afraid of colour, as shown in this previous post, she proves this is still the case during the SS'11 Fashion Weeks:





This outfit is perfection from head to toe
Sunglasses: Dries Van Noten x Linda Farrow
Dress: Alberta Ferretti

The ever-present Sara Battaglia bag

Valentino leather coat (that olive green is absolutely stunning) and Hermes Birkin *sigh*

Pierre Hardy grosgrain & suede heels


Navy & Black - one of my favourite combinations, and it must be Giovanna's too, as the outfits in this previous post seem to suggest.

Prints





Love the 'rope' belt.

Marni dress


I love it when Giovanna wears glorious yellow...

Ah, Giovanna! Pt 4 - Beige is NOT Boring

Neutral colours are fabulous to wear with bold accessories, and lends itself to beautiful cuts and textures...

How cute are those sunglasses? Coral and beige/camel, great colour combination I had not thought of.


Love those Margiela boots!



Gorgeous texture, love the clutch!

Not a fan of animal print personally for myself, but Giovanna somehow pulls off double-animal-printing...


Flirty and feminine, again teamed with a coral/pink accessory

Classic...



Geometric print on beige...love the cut of this coat.

Not beige, but a gorgeous soft blush...


Cream-coloured dress, I know, not beige...

How does one wear those incredible Louis Vuitton shoes without looking over-the-top? Giovanna knows how...

Love this outfit as it reminds me of one of my favourites that I love wearing (unfortunately I cannot fit into it at the moment). Beige is perfect for wearing with prints, these peep-toe booties funk up this outfit perfectly.

I love trench-dresses, wish I could fit back into mine!

Ah, Giovanna! Pt 3 - Shades of Grey

I am a big fan of grey, softer than black, it seems to work with practically any colour...




Beautiful layering...love those YSL cage booties.

A fresh take on tweed

The same grey turtleneck...always a versatile staple

Running in heels...how do they do it?

The electric blue clutch offsets the otherwise monochrome outfit...

A more casual take on the cropped fur coat

This skirt is just divine! Love the textures, shapes and proportions of this outfit. It also reminds me that beige and grey need not be boring together.

Accessories add further interest to an already incredible outfit...What a cute Louis Vuitton bag!

This Dolce Gabbana feather-print dress is just to-die-for...
