Before jumping into 2009, I wanted to look back at 2008 and at the many memorable fashion moments this unforgettable year gave us.
Sure the launch of Sex and the City The Movie created a lot of buzz in 2008, but everybody were more excited about Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha’s outfits. No one can forget Sarah Jessica Parker peacock feathers hat to match her Alexander McQueen dress at the move premiere in London.
The 2008 Oscar ceremony almost did not take place because of the writers’ strike in Hollywood, but actors and actresses impressed many on the red carpet. Who can forget Nicole Kidman spectacular diamond necklace?!
2008 was also memorable on the runways. Ruffles were omnipresent. They gave a girly feel to any piece of clothing, but also brought a sexy vibe. Same for lace… so elegant and sexy at the same time.

Or how can we forget the knee-high gladiator sandals as seen at Balenciaga runway shows. They look good on Jennifer Connelly, but I’m not convinced of their practicality on a daily basis.

And when talking about 2008, no one can forget to talk about the death of one of most famous designer: YSL.
2008 was definitely memorable, but I cannot wait to see what 2009 has to offer!
