For Basque-Spanish designer Cristóbal Balenciaga success came easily, if not effortlessly. Having spent countless hours of his early childhood by his mother’s side while she was working as a seamstress, Balenciaga went on to study tailoring formally in his teenage years. His designs instantly became highly sought after and he managed to open his first couture workshop, named Eisa after his

Exploring the Balenciaga website, I happened upon something called Edition. A collection of designs from 1954-1968 that they are re-creating in some of the current collections, taking pieces of the old and incorporating into the new.www.balenciaga.comimages from balenciaga.com
What better way to spend the odd half hour on a Sunday morning than trawling through the Balenciaga department at Browns, trying to see if there’s anything I’ll ever be able to afford in this lifetime. Not much, as it turns out. And absolutely nothing at this point in time.

Imitation is the best form of flattery so it's no wonder that high end looks end up in mass retail stores for the masses. Steve Madden just released two shoes inspired by the Balenciaga fall shoe collection. If you want to look like a Transformer or even a legoman then this show is for you. The Balenciaga Opened Toed Cage Sandals with Ankle Pads retails for $4,175, while the Steve Madden's sell for just $99.95. I love the original but with my limited supply of funds, I will be checking out Steve Madden for a variation of that look.Remember the Jenni from the Block video where J.Lo wore the Timerland boot heels? Flashback nightmares! I swore to myself I would never wear those horrendous boots and I stayed true to my word. Balenciaga brought back the look with these Open Toe Lace up Bo
I am not an advocate of girl on girl fights so I am taking it to the streets of fashion that is. Check out these sexy blue Balenciaga gladiator sandals on Sarah Jessica Parker and Heidi Montag. I love each glam girl's style but can't help but ask the question, "who wore it better?"
About a month and a half ago, I posted a story about these fly ass Balenciaga boots that were rocked by Hillary Duff. While I was on vacation, I found these same boots in a knocked off version at Bakers and was anxious to get back and share the news with all of my shoe-nista's!!!!!! Currently, Bakers has the black and tan-nubuck pair available. On April 15th, the hot pink and blud pair will be released..... and I think my wallet will be thinner with $130 shelled out for the pink boots!!!!! They can be rocked with jeans, a mini dress, leggins, shorts, etc........ I even wanted to rock mine to bed with my pajamas!!! The best thing is that the heel is low ebough that you can wear them all night and not feel much discomfort. Head over to Bakers.com to order your pair!!!!

Ah, March. It's around this time of year where I start feeling antsy about Spring, because despite the rain, I know it's just around the corner! I can't wait to start my Spring shopping. Ok, I admit I've already started but then all you can do is stare at the clothes until the weather gets warm! But it's never too soon for Spring bags! These floral Balenciaga bags get me right in the mood for Spring. The Balenciaga giant brief leather and printed cotton bag and giant seau leather and printed cotton bag are the perfect mix of Balenciaga styling with vibrant, bright flower prints. They may be a little too bold for your taste but wear them with a monochrome look, like a black or white dress for an amazing effect.

Balenciaga Ivory Satchel - Shop for it now!By Michael KohlerOne of the most expensive and elegant purses that a person can on today is a Balenciaga handbag. Originating from Spain, Spanish designer Balenciaga began at an early age near the turn of the century. Many of the most famous people in the world were addicted to the Balenciaga style. Famous people such as the Duchess of Windsor, the Queen of Belgium, and even the Queen of Spain all wore Balenciaga creations. Balenciaga is still a very popular purse today.One unique aspect of the Balenciaga purse is that the leather that is used for the purses is not cowhide but is actually naturally distressed goat leather that gives the bags that unique appearance that most people that own them adore. Other aspects that differentiate that differen

The burgundy-hued handbag - which Gwyneth can never quite seem to keep buckled - is one of the most sophisticated yet hip purses out right now, so it’s only natural that she’d want to show it off.Photo from People.com.Shop for more designer purses by Balenciagamore luxuryhandbag click brandname handbag
By Greg HallCristobal, a man native to Spain, founded his first haute couture house in San Sebastian. It wasn’t very long before the people there began to become interested in his work. After realizing that people loved what he offered, he opened a second store in Madrid, Spain, then his third in Barcelona. In 1937, Cristobal moved himself to Paris, France where he soon became the embodiment of Parisian fashion. Christened "Couturier of Couturiers", he is still creating fashion after fashion in shoes, clothes, and clothing accessories all over the world. More than ever Cristobal is creating apparel wonders with his Balenciaga Handbags.The Pink TwiggyThis handbag is shopped directly from Italy, and is fashioned from the finest leather.

I have not seen one celeb without a Balenciaga Le Dix Motorcycle Bag. The celebs that mostly wear the Balenciaga Le Dix are Mary Kate and Nicole Richie. They can’t seem to let go and I’m sure by now they have one of every color. I just have the medium le dix in black and white and the small Le Dix in black which is enough for me. I like to have room for other designer “It” bags. The Le Dix was voted one of the most famous bags of 2005-2006 by stylists. This year celebs are still not letting go of their balenciaga bags. I still wear mine daily and love it. It is one bag that will never go out of still. To all you bag lovers if you still don’t own at least one le dix bag it would be best to ask one for Christmas. Once you wear one of these bags you won’t want another one. I have to say they are very spacious bags. That’s probably why I wear mine so much instead of my other designer bags.

I love Balenciaga bags and when I saw this bag it really caught my attention. This is such a great new style for Balenciaga. I’m sure it will be sold out in no time. Ali Larter is seen here wearing the Balenciaga Bag Moon Leather bag. The bag has black leather and golden hardware. The Balenciaga Bag Moon has a classy feel to it. I absolutely love it even-though I still faithfully wear the Balenciaga le dix.

The fashion world is crazy about this season's Balenciaga collection. Everyone wants or speaks about those schoolboy blazers, fringe ethnic scarves and "patchwork" dresses. I must admit that I'm not a Nicolas Ghesquière fan but I love the multicultural feeling of this collection and the fact that finally his collection looks wearable. And those preppy looks...
As everyone else dreams about the navy blazer I'm more attracted by the white look. I must have a thing on white this season.

Earlier this month Nicolas Ghesquiere's showed his Balenciaga Spring Collection. We totally adored the native chic, tablecloth inspired looks but now are a bit skeptical about its direct translation. Perhaps taking the full look is a bit much on Jennifer Connelly who wore the Balenciaga Spring 2008 RTW dress and heels to the Reservation Road premiere. Is it just us or does she mildly resemble a character from Space Balls or Star Trek?Take me to because im addicted's: Balenciaga Spring 2008 girl hot or boy hot postPhoto Cred: teddyandmoo, condenast

Via Diorette @ tFsSince I simply can't afford buying and reading all the magazines I'd love to I sometimes are kind of slow in discovering interessting magazine stuff to post about. Lucky me I'm a member of the beloved fashion spot community where other magazine addicts like me scan and upload fashion spreads from every thinkable magazine worldwide. So I had a change to see the spread Cindy Sherman did herself for Vogue Paris' August 2007 issue (no wonder then that she showed up in the balenciaga show during paris fashion week three days ago...).Via Diorette @ tFs
Credit: style.comWhere art meets art. Balenciaga again causes me to interrupt my fashion week absence. Cindy Sherman and Nicolas Ghesquière posing for the photographs - what is this trying to tell us? Nicolas again gives us a bunch of artworks, sculptural shoes, dresses, that demand a huge amount of selfconfidence from its wearer. Do we love that YES YES YES. That's where fashion starts to really get interessting, where it crosses the line from beeing just clothing and as always I think that noone does it better than Mr. Ghesquière (well maybe Gareth Pugh, but that's London!!!!).But stop. I HATE THOSE FLOWER PRINTS, I HATE THEM SO MUCH, THEY ARE TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!!! And still, I love them. Oh what would I give for wearing that flowery carlike dress for just one night it's so amazingly contradictory. And although it reminds us of all these gucci (dolce&gabbana - who the f*** are they) crapp armors we had two seasons ago, we feel that this is simply more... Am I still alive?
“I’m exploring new territory, within the references of the house,” said Nicolas Ghesquière before the show. “I’ve done prints before, but I never went to the flowers.” So this was Balenciaga in full bloom: a splashy riot of hyper-gorgeous hydrangeas, pansies, peonies, daffodils, and anemones—some of them Cristobal’s own—but compressed into another of Ghesquière’s short-sharp revolutionary essays-in-couture technique. The shapes, with their standout shoulder lines, hand-span waists, and belled (almost panniered) hip volume, marched in on vertiginous knee-high woven-leather gladiator boots.

By: Nikki LeRoiBalenciaga handbags are known as the celebrity bag because this chic bag can often be seen on the arm of celebrities such as Sarah Jessica Parker, Lindsey Lohan and (love her or hate her) Paris Hilton.But you dont have to be a celebrity to appreciate these high-quality, stylish handbags.

It's no news that major clothing companies always try to copy what's hot on the runways. Sometimes they succeed, sometimes they fail. Well, Topshop failed lately with their yellow See by Chloe dress. Read all about it here.Zara did much better with their Balenciaga plagiat. Allure gave me the hint...I didn't buy it, since my monster boobs didn't seem to fit in that blazer. Well, I'm used to it, but... Guess (hope?) the original won't fit better :-(So I went to H&M's trend department. And was glad to find those two shirt dresses. The one on the left hand side somehow (well somehow very far away, but... I probably should get it altered!?) reminded me of that perfect Balenciaga dress, worn by Giovanna Battaglia ♥ , editor of L'Uommo Vogue and shot by the sartorialist a couple of times.
Yes, now we are able to preorder our favourites from next season's balenciaga collection. Browns is prepared and so am I, well emotionally, not financially to be honest ;-(Well I'll check out H&M's trend department in Frankfurt tomorrow. Guess there's nobody out there who planned to donate some Euros so I can start preordering my favourites? At least some of the shoes? Helloooho?Danke mary für den hinweis...Credit: style.com
While the celebrity favored 'Le Dix' has arguably been the most popular in the Balenciaga family, the Balenciaga Tron is the undiscovered gem. It is the ultimate in classy bags for the mature woman. In my opinion it is the more sensible and sophisticated bag with its very contemporary and sleek calf leather, front gold 'winged' clasp and swivel top handles. I simply adore this bag. And it is an absolute steal at $520! These days, designers like Botkier and Goldenbleu are charging upwards of $700 for bags in their collections so why not get a luxury brand like Balenciaga for less than that?
I would seriously die for this outfit. O.k. if I would I couldn't wear it, so... let's talk about something else ;-)I wonder which shoes she wore. OMG - I'll start crying in a minute. I want it so badly ;-(I would be happy with the pants - at least, not to mention the shoes OMG.cafe-mode you are causing me real pain! Why are you hopping around all those fantastic shows snapping all those fantasic looking people and leave us behind in envy? Thank you!More pain here.Credit: cafe-mode and style.com
Well that's no real news, but...I love those balenciaga leggins and I'm really happy to read that they don't cost a 100.000EUR but only around 18.000 EUR, what a bargain!!! But I guess they really are worth it.The canadian artist Terence Koh (now living in New York) wore them to one of his performances. You can view the documentation here. Or look at some photos of another performance at de Pury & Luxembourg gallery, Zurich here.And Beyonce? Well she wore her pair here. Probably not really flattering in her case!? Please Beyonce give them to me, sister! You'll never wear them again, anyway or shouldn't at least! Or probably you simply give us a totally different idea on wearing those fantastic pants. What did Nicolas say? Well wish I had your six pack, I mean you have a killer body, but I prefer my thighs. I already have so many plans with those leggins...PS: Paris Hilton is out of prison, by the way. A fact that's not worth a blog entry, so I just wanted to mention it, i

Nicole Ritchie StyleA few weeks ago I recreated a Nicole Ritchie outfit and I was surprised at how may responses I received about the post. I know the frugal fashionista blog has been doing these for a while and I am personally a huge fan of their blog. However, I'm going to do my own little spin on these posts.First, let me say that I LOVE fashion, and everything about it. I know that we have to feel good on the inside to look good on the outsied, but there are some things that I cannot live without. Mostly this applies to great shoes and a great bag. I recently went out wearing a dress that cost $15.00 while wearing a pair of $300.00 shoes and I recieved endless compliments from men and women. My little secret about the dress kept me smiling the whole time. Sounds crazy, but trust me, it works.But back to Nicole's outfit. I want to say it looks like Nicole is leaving a restaurant or store on Sunset Plaza ... at least that's what it looks like to me. Nic's outfit:Balenciaga canva

If you can't live without a Balenciaga they can be found at Balenciaga NYC (212-206-0872) or if your lucky your nearest Neiman Marcus or Saks may carry them.

BTW, I was at Barney's last night and took a look at the new Balenciaga Motorcycle bags, which are the same as the old but with embellished, larger hardware/grommets in a gold weave (like a microphone mesh...). I LOVE the look but have to admit that for me (besides their obvious cool factor) one of the big draws of the bag was its light and versatile weight, and this new design while hot makes the new bags that much heavier and just over the threshold for me, weighing in as: TOO HEAVY.Balenciaga 542 W. 22nd St., New York, NY 10011 near Eleventh Ave. 212-206-0872
I really really love these Balenciaga heels. They somehow remind me of Playmobil, Lego not to mention (Ice) Hockeyor American Football. I'm really looking forward on how these shoes will be worn in public and if the Olsen twins are going to replace their witch boots!?See the whole accessory report here.Credit: style.com
If you are in the Los Angeles area (be it Hollywood or Beverly Hills) or Las Vegas and are eager to buy a new Balenciaga - this is for you.So, where can you find it?The usual stores that carry Balenciaga bags in the United States are Neiman Marcus, Barney's New York and Saks Fifth Avenue. But not all of them carry the purses. However, here is some info on which stores do.If you are in Vegas: Neiman Marcus at the Fashion Show Mall has a rather good collection of "Bbags".If you are in LA: Don't bother going in Neiman Marcus or Saks by the Rodeo Drive (Wilshire boulevard). Go straight to Barney's. That's where you'll find you dream purse. And while you are in the area, swing by the gorgeous LV boutique just around the block. LV handbags are such an eye-candy. Always and forever.
The Balenciaga bag with all its different sizes and colors has been the "it" bag for quite some time now. It is definitelly a good investment, the bag is of very hight quality and it is absolutely gorgeous. Also, for those of you who try to keep up with fashion, Balenciaga will definitelly stay in the "it" bag position for a couple of years in the future. Although, I'm sure that true fans will stay loyal to Balenciaga no matter what.Celebrities seem to adore the Balenciaga. Most of them has been seen sporting different models of the bag in many different colors. Nicole Richie is probably the biggest Balenciaga fan.
Balenciaga Spring 2007 Collection is fantastic I just love this look. The colors which were used were white, black, gold, electric blue. It did have the goth/cyber look going on and it just was so sexy. The blue dress pictured is my favorite from the collection. All the clothes were very wearable for the likes of you and me.
I thought Balenciaga bags were so over but obviously I was wrong. Kobe Bryant's wife Vanessa was spotted on the All Star 2007 red carpet with this new white Balenciaga Le Dix Motorcycle bag. I saw it in person today at Neiman Marcus and it's just slightly smaller than the large Le Dix. It has the same appeal of the original, but is accented with gold thimble-like ornaments in place of studs.What do you think of this new style?
