SPRING SNEAK PEEK: SEEING STARS
Designers were starstruck at the Spring 2008 shows, and it had nothing to do with the A-list celebs stead in the front rows.
Bearing the celestial motif, dresses, sweaters, jewelry and more raided the runways.

At first glance the constellations struck me as gimmicky (especially when there were sequins involved), but at second glance my eyes adjusted to the glare (perhaps my Lucky Charms obsession is partially to blame?), and the sparkles induced an unexpected craving (in the form of this Yves Saint Laurent dress, for example).
STOP.
Before proceeding, download "STARRY-EYED SURPRISE" by Paul Oakenfold onto your Ipod, and give yourself a spritz of Thierry Mugler's Angel perfume.
Now you may continue.
Fashion All-Star Karl Lagerfeld worked stars into his collection for Chanel (stars even decorated the surface of the runway), as well as his namesake label.
