Inés de la Fressange- style icon - "la Parisienne chic"

Hi Everyone,
merry Xmas!!! Hope you are enjoying the holidays!

I've just got the book, I wanted since a long time. It's called "Parisian chic" from Inés de la Fressange. If you only look at the design, you see, that THIS is the book you always wanted!! Which you can take out off your bag in a cafeteria, and I promise, everybody will want it!!
So, and if you start reading... I just LOVE the style of Inés!! She writes with a little irony and sarcasm - the perfect way to get that parisian feeling!!
So, if you are lucky to be able to buy it, don't wait!!! And if you already have it, well, I'm sure you have it in "the big tote bag"!!

xoxo

Models.com - Model of the week - Moa

The name of this week's model on models.com is Moa, the interesting swedish girl. She looks definitely  high-fashioned, but do you know how old she is? Only 15! I think, it's very good, that she is so doing so well so young, but she also looks in the shoots like her age, which is not always the best, I think. However, her bonestructure is amazing, and I'm sure she'll do great!

MOMA Film Benefit - people watching

On the 17. of November the Museum of Modern Arts Film Benefit took for the 4th time place. All the important people of fashion world were there - well, the two most important for me surely: Karl Lagerfeld and Anna Wintour both walked the red carpet at the tribute to Spanish film director Pedro Almodovar included Blake Lively, Emma Stone, Chloé Moretz, Miranda Kerr, Lara Stone and many more...
I've chosen some shots to show you what they wore at the event. The background of the red carpet is just lovely, artistic and very decorative!! Do you like it?

Amazing photo shoot by German Vogue

Hi, Everybody!
I'm so happy, it's winter!! I like it much more, than summer, because we can even wear more amazing clothes. It just feels so good, step out the door at a cold, snowy winter day in high heeled boots (you know, the funniest thing is going down to the school from the car park in these slippery boots, which is just like - well, almost - I would walk down a ski-truck covered with ice... ), wearing an amazing coat and carrying a fury bag, while seeing all the trees decorated for Christmas, covered with snow and hearing the buzzy noise of the city on a usual day. Love it!

It looks like, the must-haves for this winter are going to be leather and lace. German Vogue is one of those, who made a photo shoot with the best pieces of designers collections. The photos are mostly black and white, they just look very artistic and extravagant.




 Also balett dancing AND clothing is having a big importance nowadays. After the Oscar winning "Black swan" and many articles about ballerinas (f.e.: one of the TeenVogue issues this fall), I'm not surprised. 
I'm really happy about it, because I also dance, and I think it's an amazing, complex and difficult sort of arts!



P.S.

Do you know the song "Leather and lace"? :)))

Gucci Museum




Happy 90th anniversary, dear GUCCI!!
Everybody who loves this label SHOULD be now in Florence!! The Gucci Museum has just opened and it's documenting the label's whole history - since the grandmother's time. That means, lots of wonderful historical dresses and bags, which created Gucci The image, for which we love it so much!!

The New Phillip Lim collection for women 2011 F/W

The pastel coloured pieces with the glamorous parts have a sporty, but cosmopolitan effect. The interesting cuts of the coats and the pants fit perfectly for the boy-meets-girl-trend. The ad movie for this collection is perfect to make people feel the atmosphere of the clothes.

Wedding of a stylist

When I first saw this photo, I thought it would be a photo shooting for a magazine - but it was not! This Gareth Pugh gown was worn by Katie Shillingford, a stylist. I'm sure she has a unique style, and she probably doesn't cares what others think. This gown would perfectly fit for a gothic shooting, because it looks like an art creation. But I wouldn't wear it for a wedding - especially not with pink hair....

Chinese models

China gets always more and more important in the world's history - but also in fashion's history!
One of the most famous models is Sui He, face of Ralph Lauren right now.
Models.com made an interview with her an interview, where she said, she loves shooting, and maybe you wouldn't guess, she is always very nervous, when she has to walk down the runway.
She was also shooting for Vogue China with other chinese models like Du Juan, Shu Pei and Liu Wen.
Sui He's dream is to own one time a restaurant, because she loves all kind of foods - French, Italian and also Chinese. And of course, she wants to keep working in fashion industry. :)





Hogan by Karl Lagerfeld's fall campaign looks also amazing - and also a chinese model was modeling (with many other american, french models). Du Juan - who I mentioned before, when I wrote about the Vogue China shooting - was photographed by Lagerfeld. The designer said about chinese women, that "they are beautiful, educated and elegant, natural." He also thinks, that "today we have to remember, know and acknowledge, that China is important."
