Met BallGown Showdown!

As soon as we got into the dolls house this morning we headed straight to vogue.com to get the Met ballgown scoop last night in the big apple! The Costume Institute Gala was again held at New York's Metropolitan Museum and this year the legendary event was all about who can sparkle the  hardest. In true, diva fashion, the ladies (and gents- Mr West was in the building without Kim Kardashian) went all out and dazzled us in futuristic fabrics and luxurious beading. 

Check out our best looks and let us know who your ultimate favourite doll of the night goes to, we just cannot decide!

All Black Everything

With the weather still looking gloomy til the weekend (Whats going on??) we think us dolls will be strutting ourselves back to the office in touches of black this week.

Take a look at our favorite DollsMaison black shoes, bags and dresses from our most recent shoot that we will be rocking this 4  day working week! Have a good one dolls!

 

Royally Chic

For the past year the eyes of the world's media (and everyone else for that matter!) have been glued to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. We on the other hand have been glued to Princess Kate and her wardrobe. Literally everything she is spotted in sells out immediately!

To mark our fave Prince and Princess's first year of wedded bliss we've taken a look back at K-Middy's sartorial highs and plucked out a few of our very own vintage DollsMaison pieces that would be fit for a princess!

Happy 1st year anniversary Will and Kate!

We Need It Now Jewels

No words are really required for this post, just that we adore vintage designer costume jewellery. No one designer does it like the exquisite Chanel pieces.Period.

Kris Jenner, Kim K's mama is always sporting vintage Chanel signature earrings as well as Miss Beyonce. We are literally emerald green with envy, don't even get us started on the handbags.

As soon as we can get our hands on a selection we will be sure to let our dolls know, if we don't buy them all for ourselves first! Feast your eyes on these babies...

Print-tastic!

Prints are huge this SS12 season, from D&G's throwback 'Versace style' scarf print to batik at Burberry and Donna Karan's aztec art. You literally couldn't get away from this in your face take on colour if you tried!

A firm favourite at the DollsMaison HQ is the mixing of prints, we love a clash! Knock yourself out with our take on graphic prints and grab yourself a vintage one of a kind bargain!
