DESIGNER LENSES


No we're not talking about sunglasses. John Galliano has raised the bar once again by creating a line of Christian Dior contact lenses. These ones feature shimmery gold flecks with the Christian Dior logo "CD". I'm down for the gold shimmer. I'm not really down with wearing logos all over my clothes let alone wearing a logo on my eyeballs. I can't imagine these don't impact your vision at least a little bit. I suppose that's the price you pay for fashion.

CHANEL CRUISE COLLECTON STARRING A ROCK STAR OFFSPRING

Karl Lagerfeld chose Mich Jagger's daughter, Georgia May Jagger, to close his recent runway show, so it comes to no surprise that she is the face of Chanel's Cruise Collection for 2010-2011. Why did he choose Georgia? “Because Miss Jagger is the modern girl. She is the girl of today. There is a total identification between her and the clothes. They could be her clothes,” explains Lagerfeld. Well it does help that her daddy's a millionaire. “She is totally at home in Chanel. And that fits in the pattern of what Saint-Tropez can represent, what it is not really and yet what it can inspire,” he adds.
