H&M makes a splash with KYLIE MINOGUE in a new beachwear line

The perfect match, H&M�s key theme for summer is Australia: a laidback sporty beach lifestyle and glam is the big-hitter trend. So who better to personify this fabulous �relaxed meets disco� hybrid than the Melbourne-born princess of pop, Kylie Minogue. Kylie has been the inspiration behind H&M�s limited beachwear line that comes to all H&M stores that sell womenswear in mid May. Kylie is also the face of the upcoming beachwear campaign.
SISLEY FALL/WINTER 2007/2008 WOMEN�S COLLECTIONS TRENDS

Wall Street. A tough NYC look is created by a hard-hitting smoky black wardrobe, with a sophisticated sex appeal. A selection of contrasts offer various options: Short and boxy trench coats or long, sleek and elegant ones with fur collars. Trousers are either wide with many darts or tapering and very slim. Sweaters are either wide one piece garments or figure-hugging with parts in quilted nylon. Shiny minis or Bermuda shorts in cool wool.
Top Gun. For the determined woman there is a provocative rethink of the tracksuit and the aviator jacket. Slim-fit down-filled jackets and jogging shorts, form-fitting jeans with striped sweaters. Knits are romantic and relaxed, and shirts are arabesqued and shiny like a fuselage. The main colours are air force blue denim and khaki.
Gosford Park. A soft and feminine look for the country. Faux fur or hand knitted boleros, frock coat jackets in waterproof cotton or wool worn with long trousers or shorts. The colours of a rainy English countryside are brightened by flashes of violet and rosewood shades.
Herringbone, velvet, Prince of Wales, moleskin, leather and faux fur are softened with floral patterns from the Art-Nouveau of the 1930s. Breakfast at Tiffany�s. A sophisticated section worthy of the Holly Golightly/Audrey Hepburn icon. The theme�s key looks are the evening and cocktail dresses in black and cream. Either a slim-fit version in textured fabric or a fuller dress in organza with random sunray pleats coated in gold. Naturally there is daywear too. Short, boxy sixties style coats above the knee, ultra-lightweight and sheer �veiled� knitwear and black trousers to be worn with faux mink jackets cinched at the waist by flashy belts in passion red.

On the 31st of May �Galinel� Fashion House held a real �Gipsy wedding� on the stage of the Ancient Theatre. The elegant dresses of the Company�s new collection glittered against the background of the stage of the ancient ruins turned into a Gipsy camp for the show. The ovations went to the typical full-length Gipsy skirts presented by the top-models Iren Onteva and Violeta Zdravkova.

Eva Longoria and Tony Parker got married in the palace Chateau Vaux-le-Vicomte on the luckiest day in history, 7/7/07. This 17th century castle located in the south of France is known for its beautiful gardens. The couple chose France because it is Parker�s native place and because it is so romantic to marry in a French castle.
OK! Magazine is reported to have paid $2 million to have the exclusive pictures from this Saturday's wedding.
The 32-year-old Eva Longoria, who is starring in the worldwide TV hit "Desperate Housewives", and the 25-year-old Tony Parker, an MVP NBA champion are two people that everybody has heard about. She is a beautiful Mexican-American. He is a Belgian raised in France and playing in the US.

Sisley - F/W 2007/2008 Accessories collection

For the past couple of seasons Sisley has been focusing on perfecting top-quality accessories, well made and highly structured, emulating fine craftsmanship from times gone by. The collection for winter 2007/2008 is born of a classic concept, bon ton for her and dandy for him, resulting in highly creative and on trend results, a significant innovation on the general scene.
The main collection of bags is the jacquard all-over �S� motif, in shiny/matte fabric and high-gloss waxed material in basic colours. The designs also combine the jacquard with other materials � plain and croc stamped leather, suede, fur and rhinestone � for the handles, flaps, fastenings, buckles and pure decoration. The shapes are convex, rigid, average size, bowling bag, cylinder and case.
The ultra-classic messenger bag and the tote with two handles and a much longer shape are available in plain croc stamped leather. The models in tumbled leather are slightly squashier: hand or shoulder bags with metal chains and faux tortoiseshell. For him large bags and briefcases in canvas and split leather with a colonial feel.
The two different types of footwear for the season are either the ankle boot: flat, pointed, in plain leather, sueded and napped, for him and her, or the lace-up leather shoe for her, sueded and �stained� derby shoes for him.
Belts are must-have accessories for everyone. Studded, plaited, decorated with fake coins and dyed in the most classic of colours: black, white and brown. However the most eye catching are the double and triple styles with several buckles or those that run twice round the waist.
Hats off to the new berets with small visor and chain stitch decorations, and to the rethink on jockey caps in plaid bouclé and the warm caps in tricot and fur, like that of a Nordic explorer.
