Trend Alert! Influence: Avatar.

Although I'm yet to see the movie, the strange blue cat-like creatures on 'Avatar' has everyone going wild, including designers Valentino and the notoriously insane (in a good way!) Jean Paul Gaultier. Their models struted down the runway wearing strips of brightly coloured savage frills, tribal-inspired jewlery, and sharp braided hairstyles decked with palmfronds. Editors of vogue also took place in the 'Avatar' frenzy, by shooting a 10 page fashion feature in a mossy forest, while models sported tribal tatoos. Now I'm off on my two week-long trip to the Virgin Islands to bathe in the sun, the Caribbean never goes out of style!

Ciao for now!
