[ Wearing H&M white blouse, YSL Blue Denim, YSL Blue Heels, Hugo Boss Blue Clutch, Michael Kors Watch]
How are you all doing today? The sun is out here in Paris and so are the masses. I’m so thankful not to be freezing my tush off anymore!
At first I didint want to post these photos because I’m not very happy with them, as there wasnt enough lighting.We took them as a quick shot after I dropped Pierre off at school. This is a part of his courtyard.
But I hope they can still be a bit inspirational of how all you need is a pair of nice jeans, some sexy shoes and some killer accessories like my Marni-esque clutch and my oversized mens watch.
Mercedez Benz Fashion Week Fall 2011 is over. But not many people knew that you could see videos of the collections and backstage on Youtube.
Many shows were even streaming live on the Internet; as will be the case during London, Milan and Paris Fashion Weeks.
Power to the people! I didn’t do a day to day round up because, well everyone was doing that, but I’m working on some mood boards on looks we can wear now inspired from the present Fall 2011 collections. It’s going to be hot and very budget friendly.
Michael Kors FALL 2011 COLLECTION, MERCEDES-BENZ FASHION WEEK
MIchael Kors is one of my favorite fashion designers, every season he makes clothes that arent just for stick figures, peices that can transition from boardroom to weekend shopping. He’s really in tune with what women want, time after time. I love him and his pants suits is to your body as is butter on warm toast; divine.
Diane von Furstenberg FALL 2011 COLLECTION, MERCEDES-BENZ FASHION WEEK
Leave it to DVF to show us that the wrap dress after all these years can never go out of style. Like Yves Saint Laurent is so famous for saying “Fashion Fades but Style is eternal”

SOME ADDITIONAL VIDEOS FROM STYLE.COM
Actually my favorite is this one! Phillip Lim Fall 2011 Ready-to-Wear – “Green is the color of money” he says- funnnnnyyy
Proenza Schouler Fall 2011 Ready-to-Wear – Look at the textures! OMG so inventive, they were inspired by Indian blankets.
Calvin Klein Fall 2011 Ready-to-Wear – Listen to Nicole Phelps from Style.com – One of the best fashion writers of all time. If you don’t know she writes those bomb ass reviews during fashion weeks. As for the collection it is simple, perhaps you can find many of the styles in your local Mango. But CK has always been well, simple.
I was a bit disappointed I couldn’t find a good Victoria Beckham Video, as the collection has really matured and in a way embraced real women bodies with a lot of flowy yet stylish dresses and bold colors. Not to mention the bags were to die for.
We went to our favorite Sunday brunch restaurant, Le Pavilion, it’s always quiet and the brunch is what I like to call “hearty” in a very British style, Hash browns,Bacons and all.
My hubby got the traditional brunch. I however, considering my new nutritional decisions took the Soja Burger and it’s was delicious as it looks.
Pierre was busy doing the usual playing sleep in the sofa and/or searching for my breast (I swear he has got this thing for caressing my breast when he’s sleepy,probably has something to do with the fact that he was breastfed until he was 1yr old).
Anyways, this is what I wore on my birthday/earth-day, my new Pierre Hardy heels!
I bought them a while back with my friend Kristina,and finally got the courage and occasion.
This is just outside our apartment, it was way winder than I thought it would be.
I made those earrings! and despite My hubby thinking that Ray-bans are for “les mecs” I love them.
The Michael Kors watch was a gift last year from the hubby.
Kristina look I’m wearing them! I said ” Ok today will be the day I “go hard”
because it’s my birthday and I did it in my Pierre Hardy wooden heel shoes.
The shoes from behind. So nice, had to do it twice. please indulge me.
Group hug – Pierre, teddy/DouDou and Mommy.
My hubby, very pensive… about those pancakes
and of course the fooooddd!

So these past two days I’ve had really mixed felling about the lines i’ve seen. So to get a perspective on how i feel i’ve created 3 categories to put some of the designers that had me awwwed, ohhed or jeeezzed aka good, bad and ugly.
The Good: Malandrino: sweet floaty cuts little black dresses and punchy purples filled the catwalk.
Michael Kors:Showed classic american style and showed his love of fur.
The Bad: Proenza Schouler: I was really let down as I was expecting looks with a “punch”, yes the intricated details were nice, I found many of the coats to be undesirable. Not the worst showing, but not really the best showing either.
Y:3 : I guess its as best as you can get when you pair a major sports brand with a fashion visionaire such as Yohji Yamamoto
The Ugly: Heatherette: Alice in wonderland meets a night at Mr.Black is how I’d describe this seasons line. Ok, what part of this is ready to wear? Anyway I hear Macys now carry’s the line, one step for the partying mankind everywhere Macys is available.
