Lauren Conrad‘s clothing line was – as are most celebrity clothing lines – a big fail and wrapped soon after its initial release. I really wasn’t fond of her collection – generic, lackluster pieces and overpriced on top of that. There was one dress however which managed to impress me and this dress has been worn by LC herself (didn’t happen too often with all her other designs though).
Lauren wore the “Christina” dress, a cobalt blue one-shoulder ruched pencil dress, to the 2008 MTV Movie Awards. And for once we were able to see Lauren’s curvy body. Definitely one of my favorite LC red carpet looks.

Balmainia! It just won’t stop. For many months now the newly revived Balmain has been the “it” designer label in Fashionville. And as much as I hate being overly consumed by a trend, I just can’t help but love it. I’m so excited to see what Christophe Decarnin comes up with for the Spring 2010 collection. Are we going to see peaked shoulders and ultra-short mini dresses again? Time will tell.
In the meantime we’ll have to drool at all the pieces from this year’s fall collection and may I say it’s been a wonderful one (I think I’m saying this for the 100th time!)? Some of the strapless mini dresses had long ruffled back trains to create a dramatic effect. Not the most practical accessory, but certainly a show-stopping one. The strapless dress below hasn’t hit the stores yet, so the retail price is unknown, but Balmain dresses usually sell for $6k-$10k. Expensive doesn’t even come close.

Bebe Strapless Sequin Train Dress
Bebe doing Balmain. Sounds repetitive, no? I guess they won’t stop until the Balmain fever is over. This silver strapless sequin dress is Bebe’s interpretation of the Balmain dress above. A budget version (even though $198 aren’t exactly what I’d call a steal). The train is not as dramatic as on the original and can also be removed. You have the choice to either glam it up and go for an extravagant look or sex it up and settle for the sexy mini version.
