 I didn’t expect to see my dream closet at the Haute Hippie F/W 2011 collection, but I sort of did…
Have a look to see what I mean in the link below…
Checked (plaid) weathered button down shirts with tarnished studs. Love the raw hem.
Fringe poncho with oversized monk style hoodie
The Dream Catcher chiffon maxi dress. I basically passed out when I saw this
Bobcat fur vest.  Good with flares or skinnies tucked into slim knee high leather boots. Beanie or large brimmed hat optional
Fringe beaded deco skirt. How sick with an old white T and black suede gladiators
Nude flame beaded jackets and charcoal long fringe cross stitched jackets
Emerald green embroided jacket. I think you know by now how I feel about embellished vintage looking jackets.  I think I whimpered when I saw this
Flowing maxi dress in rock chick leopard.  The fabric is so light it literally floats on the hanger
Heavy metal chain dress with plunging v neck front.  This ticks all my dress expectation boxes: Floor length. Check. Long skinny sleeves. Check. Plunging front. Check. Note the chains, one hanging from each shoulder down to the knee.  Kill me now
The Haute Hippie collection is inspired by the Rock n Roll Bohemian and all I kept thinking was ‘this is so bloody meeeeeee
The beaded jackets – I was thinking about this.
The fringing – Apart from the below post where I turned up at the show room wearing that fringe jacket, these numbers came to mind.
The leopard. The beading. The maxis  – This one outfit alone confirmed what I kept thinking:  This collection is like a hyper/luxe version of Karen’s ultimate closet.

I would wear have worn it all in some form or another so I felt right at home.
