THE WEEK AHEAD

I’M WISHING YOU ALL A LOVEY MONDAY AND A FABULOUS WEEK – MAY YOU CONTINUE TO CHECK ITEMS OFF YOUR TO-DO LIST UNTIL YOU HAVE TO MAKE ANOTHER ONE.

As for me I’m sitting at a cafe in the Marais, planning my weekly work load and prioritizing my projects. I want this week to be different and I have a big meeting on Wednesday where I have to prepare like a 30 page document, that as of right now is still all in my head. Lord help me!

Sending you all tons of positive energy! May we kick some serious ass this week.

I just love this little tiger  leopard and I had the uncontrollable urge to share some random cuteness.

Have a grrrrrrrrrreat week!

What I Wore: Paris Fashion Week

Hi guys!

I’m still in a mental coma from all the fashion and fabulousness of Paris Fashion Week 2011 / 2012 Collections. I went to many shows and took so many photos its seems almost ridiculous to write a short summary now.

Until I get over being “si fatiguée” I will write a lovely trend round-up (I did for work anyways) and perhaps even create a new site for all the lovely streetstyle photos that just seem to take on a life of their own.

Everyday, I was falling more and more in love with my camera. I’m not a professional photographer, but as a writer I see no harm in multitasking, especially when you get to meet and interview some of the most stylish people in the world!

Until then here are two of my outfits, shot by two very darling photogrpahers Phil Oh from Streetpeeper for Metro paper and Guerre from Swagger360 for Vogue Italia.


Yanique in neon green at Paris Fashion week

This is the outfit that Anna Dello Russo liked. I’m wearing mostly vintage (shades, top & kilt skirt) , and the Zara Coat and Boots I wore here. I had so much this day because I’ve been dying to wear my kilt and this top again. I just love how bright the green is and it has some tiny gold buttons on the details that were so cute.

Lovely People at Chanel Paris Fashion Show 2011 – 2012

Photos from the Chanel show yesterday.

It’s always such a huge visual fashion stimulation for me snapping outside Chanel because you really see a mix of equal parts eccentric and conventional dressing in one place.

Loved the all blue look.

Every time I see her, its always Wow! She piles on the accessories every time, and I love that confidence to pull it off.

Patchwork Chanel oversized bag, stacked Hermes bracelets, multiple Yves Saint Laurent rings. She’s wearing an entire college tuition on the right side of her body. Fashion as status symbol.

Color block anyone? I took so many shots of her, full body, sitting, standing, but somehow I just love how it seems like there is a halo around her in this shot.

Wait, I’ll post the full outfit soon so you all can see the colorful heels too. She wasn’t holding anything back about the mix of colors.

At Chanel you can see classic-clean styles and fierce-fun styles
