as a young girl watching style shows i've always been in awe of classic designers like carolina herrera and oscar de la renta..

as i grew older i learned to appreciate the style classic with a twist by designers like olivier theyskiens (did i spell it right?! he used to work with rochas) and nicholas Ghesquière of Balenciaga..

so far im just an admirer since i dont have any of their stuff yet..hehe i guess a few more years of work to do and more money to earn!

I really like Chloe. I see a lot of stuff on the runway from high end designers that I would never want to wear, but most of the chloe stuff I actually really wish I could buy (if I only had the money!)

I've always loved Versace's Italian feel and most of their handbags have a sparkle. My favorite shirts are Versace's.

Yes I was, since 1993 or so. But Donatella has done an amazing job keeping the same look and feel of the brand going.

I'd have to say my favorite suit designer is Tahari! I also love DKNY (casual wear) and Jones New York (office attire) - but I don't think either one is considered "high end." Which is good for me because I wouldn't be able to afford them!

Donatella had to meet very high expectations when she took over but i have to say she really impressed everyone. I honestly thought it was the end of that empire..she really kept the sexy, sophisticated vibe going. I think Cavalli is very strongly influenced by Versace...

Balenciaga ALL THE WAY!!!!!

I love Chanel EVERYTHING.

Chanel and Ralph Lauren are my two favorite designers. I've rarely seen anything from them that I haven't fallen in love with.
