So Pretty It Hurts

Has anyone heard of New Zealand based designer Juliette Hogan? I just stumbled  across her website today and after browsing through her Winter 2010 Lookbook, I think I’m actually looking forward to cold wintery days now, just so I can wear one of her lovely creations. 

Her collection is titled So Pretty It Hurts and it really is!

I love the way these outfits are feminine without being overly frilly or fussy. They also have a touch of vintage to them, which I find hard to resist.

How could I  have gone so long without knowing about Juliette Hogan’s fashion label?! What do you all think of her designs? Check out the rest of this collection here.
