Leave it to all-American designer Betsey Johnson (who, incidentally, starts her run on Dancing With Stars shortly) to have a super fun-packed catwalk. Her spring summer 2015 collection is, if you hadn't guessed, titled 'Prenup', and it's brilliantly ironic that stars of some of The Real Housewives franchises (including Camille Grammer from Beverly Hills, my favourite), and Betsey's friends, walked the runway. Some of these uber rich women HAVE prenups, worth millions of dollars. With that in mind, the word was plastered everywhere: around every model's neck in bling necklaces, and in sparkles on the crop top above. Love it!What's more, Betsey had two of the most controversial and talked about contestants from Rupaul's Drag Race seasons past: Willam Belli and Sharon Needles. Needless to say, I was in awe of the this catwalk. The clothes were really a celebration of the success of Betsey's bridal line, but also had a political undertone - whoever you are, whatever your sexual preference, marriage is for everyone!And actually, look past the bling factor and famous faces, and there are pieces that are really quite nice: a floral embroidered, multi-tiered dress, a polka dot skirt, not to mention those necklaces. Where can I pre-order one from?
Camille Grammer, in all her glory!

And over at The Blonds, it was all couture nails and massive warrior woman hair. Phillipe and David Blond know a thing or two about celebrity dressing, everyone from Beyonce to Britney and Katy Perry to Nicki Minaj have worn a custom creation or two from them on stage. So it was no surprise that for their spring summer 2014 collection they had to do something even bigger to grab attention... Just look at those nails!
Designed bespoke by world renowned nail experts CND, they are some of the best I've ever seen. Obviously completely impractical, but it's all for show. Chains hanging, rose petals attached and bling embellishments stuck on, they are just utterly mesmerizing!
