miu miu DIY. returns.

Miu Miu mania, some may say madness, was caused by the Spring/Summer collection, as the blogosphere was buzzing with DIY'S and heaps of creativity as we attempted to recreate the look.

I absolutely adore the shot of Hanneli in her vintage print trousers and mint green collar, and the endless editorials filled with pieces from the collection. I also can't get enough of the square toed shoes complete with bows and metal flowers ...( kind of wish more had higher heels), felted structural dresses, and of course the bow neck collars.
