Do you believe in Zodiac Signs?

   They say Zodiac guides you, tells what your weakness are, so that you are aware of your strength and weakness. But... hey, That's it! It ends there. That's the beauty of it.

  Well, I think I don't like that kind of beauty.... I prefer Charlotte Olympia's new collection. I think you can tell a woman's star sign by her shoes, thanking this Zodiac-Inspired New Collection. Will you both match, according to your Zodiac Sign?

   As you have seen, Charlotte Olympia has turned her attention to the Zodiac Signs to find inspiration for her new collection of clutches and shoes- ballet flats. I really love this Collection. I think the designer always has  something to say, something to do , and something that makes us love her collections. They're just breathtaking.

   Everytime I see a new collection by Charlotte Olympia, I feel something inside... Something that I can't describe. It's so amazing seeing that there's still hope in fashion and, the most important thing, that there's still someone who can truly express happiness and joy with fashion. "We ofter think of fashion in terms of chic brands- Louis Vuitton, Fendi or Jimmy Choo"-- as Yves Saint Laurent said.

    I hate when people say Fashion is for fools or when they say fashion is not important. Well, I always say the same: We're all wearing clothes! We all look in the mirror. I think we all participate in the "game of fashion". Yes, that's it!

   Saying this, I remembered when one of the fictional character from "Devil wears Prada", Miranda Priestly,said:

   "You think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select... I don't know... that lumpy blue sweater, for instance because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back. But what you don't know is that that sweater is not just blue, it's not turquoise. It's not lapis. It's actually cerulean. And you're also blithely unaware of the fact that in 2002, Oscar de la Renta did a collection of cerulean gowns. And then I think it was Yves Saint Laurent... wasn't it who showed cerulean military jackets? I think we need a jacket here. And then cerulean quickly showed up in the collections of eight different designers. And then it, uh, filtered down through the department stores and then trickled on down into some tragic Casual Corner where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and it's sort of comical how you think that you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you're wearing the sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room from a pile of stuff."

   Honestly, and returning to Charlotte Olympia's new collection, I think the brand always reminds us what's important: CREATIVITY, HAPPINESS AND FASHION. So, let's have a look at this wonderful Zodiac Collection.
