EVERY DAY HAUTE: MONIQUE LHUILLIER

Monique Lhuillier, most commonly known for her exquisite bridal collections, is a name commonly dropped on high profile red carpets, such as the Oscars or the Golden Globes. Though a ball gown is not the most practical garment to wear whilst grocery shopping (or any other non-red carpet/wedding day activities), this designer did showcase some trends that can easily make the transition over to casual wear. 

EVERY DAY HAUTE: PRABAL GURUNG

This is a very exciting issue of “Every Day Haute," and I will tell you why! The purpose of this column is to be able to have high fashion taste without the accompanying price tag. However, this week’s designer has a solution to this age-old problem. Prabal Gurung, whose garments have been seen on Anne Hathaway, Jennifer Lawrence, and the Duchess of Cambridge, has partnered up with Target and has designed a line with the store. But, since we all don’t have Target (sigh), I thought we would go into more detail of this up-and-comers looks from his catwalk.

EVERY DAY HAUTE: JENNY PACKHAM

Whilst checking my daily Instagram feed before getting out of bed this morning, I saw the news that the Royal Couple is expecting their second child which made me drop my phone onto my face. Yes, Kate Middleton is currently carrying the 5th in line to the British Throne, making that fetus already more successful on the food chain than most of us. Being the die hard Kate Middleton fan that I am, I simply had to incorporate the Duchess in some way, so what better way than one of the Royal Wife’s go-to designers! 

EVERY DAY HAUTE: ELIE SAAB

Ever dream of the day that one day you too could wear a luxurious gown and go about your daily business as well? Though we can’t all rock the red carpet every weekend, there’s room for all of us to have a little touch of high fashion glam in our lives. Elie Saab has dressed everyone from Julia Roberts to Taylor Swift, his designs being nothing short of glamorous. The label’s recent Haute Couture show had a beautiful winter wonderland type feel, with many trends that all of us (you know, the non Oscar winners) can channel in our everyday lives.
