High on Crystal-Chanel F12

Papa Lagerfeld has done it again, taking female admiration of all things shiny, sparkly and bright, and translating that love into a head-to-toe crystal clothing extravaganza. With a runway more akin to a fairytale cave with large white, gray and amethyst crystals rising from the floor, crystal encrusted eyebrows and crystal bangles, it is safe to say crystals have never seen a bigger debut. As for the actual garments, Chanel F12 is a mixture of rich jewel tones, asymmetric shapes and yes, skirts over pants. With practically every look featuring a pant-skirt/dress combo, the layering trend fiercely perseveres into the upcoming season. So ladies rejoice! We have been given the official 'go-ahead' to keep our gams warm with pants while still rocking a sassy dress. 
Cheers to practical fashion! (because we all know it's a rarity)





Here are some up close looks at the show. Don't think I'll be rocking the crystal eyebrow anytime soon but where can I get one of those purple stone cuffs for under $100?
