Valentino x Capes

Valentino just had their Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2015/2016 show on July 9th. One of the pieces that Valentino is known for are capes. It's pretty dope because I was just in their Vegas showroom trying on capes for my birthday. 

My friend who previously worked at Dior is now at Valentino. Every time I come he always has a few pieces for me to drool over in the back. I swear I wish I could wear a cape every day of my life. 

 

The first cape I tried on had a beautiful floral jacquard print. It was so light and delicate. I would wear this just to the grocery store. Look how happy I am and the my friends expression in the back lol.

The second cape I tried on was a red shearling throw. Which is the perfect piece you want have on to stunt on Peta and they mama. I would wear this with some leather thigh high boots and nothing else. This would be my tea time cape and when I am picking up my kids from soccer practice. L'amour indeed.

When I didn't think Valentino could do any better with the cape trend, they proved me wrong. A few of my favorites capes from the show below:

Come through....

No words!

I mean damn! At this point I am on the hunt for winter capes or D.I.Y. projects. I am in love!!!

I tried on a few other goodies as well. I am in love with this fur camo jacket.

This purse was so amazing in person. I tried it on with the popular Rockstud heels. It was so dope. I forgot to capture the look together because I was so excited and in the moment. I also didn't plan to really work while I was in town, so I tried my best with my IPhone and under the influence.

 And even though I am over seeing these damn Rockstud heels, they were really cute in green. They hurt like hell though, I would never wear them.

 

I was also surprised to see Valentino having a quirky side to them. This is something I expected to see at Moschino. On the rack they looked like something you wore as a little girl. But when I put them on, they were so cute and sexy. I wouldn't buy them personally, but they are perfect for the quirky woman.

Who can say no to all black?

I did fall in love with a pair of heels that was not available the time I was there. They are supposed to be available later this month. I am counting down the days and waiting on that call. They are all I can think about. 

Sorry I couldn't capture more looks. I was really just living in the moment and celebrating my day another day of life on this earth. Next time I will capture more and get more details.

Until then view a few more of my favorite pieces from the Haute Couture collection.
