Pick 'n' Mix

I thought i'd start spotlighting some of my favorite designers, the first being Celine. This picture was taken from their Spring 2006 Ready-to-Wear collection, designed by a then unknown, Croatian by the name Ivana Omazic. She joined Celine as a replacement for Michael Kors' successor who made a quick exit from the company after only one year! After such a reshuffle many were unsure what Omazic would do for the label. Her debut collection (pictured) received mixed reviews however, I loved the mixture of different fabrics she used for each outfit. The combination of tan leather and luxurious materials appealed to my sense of style, and while it's not a revolutionary concept I think certain pieces showed potential.
The label has typically followed the 'high-end sporty look' which basically means many gorgeous seperates that can be put together an infinite amount of times to create many looks. The accessories are also to-die-for (as you can see from this bag!) Celebrity fans include Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Aniston and Lucy Liu.
