Paris Fashion Week Is HERE!!!!!!

24 Sep

Today is the first day of Paris fashion Week!!!!  It started in New York followed by London then Milan and now PARIS!!!!!  Fashion “month” is a series of 4 fashion weeks held in 4 different fashion capitals of the world.  It happens every year, twice a year( once to show Fall/Winter collections and again to show Spring/ Summer collections).  I love American designers so New York fashion week is always closest to my heart but I look forward mostly to Paris fashion week…… I mean we are talking about the “motherland” when it comes to fashion. Some of the most iconic fashion houses hail from France! Hello Chanel and Dior!!!!!! HUGE names with huge history will be bringing it on the runway for the next 9 days! and I am so excited!!!!!!!! I’m looking forward to so many shows, it’s bananas!!!!!  Oh the anticipation!!!!!  Fabulous fashion moments will include Alexander Wang showing his second collection for Balenciaga and Sarah Burton showing the Alexander McQueen collection on an actual runway as opposed to last year’s presentation!

Balmain, Dior, Chanel, Isabel Marant, Louis Vuitton, Celine, Chloe, Givenchy, Kenzo, Mui Mui, Valentino, Stella McCartney, Lanvin, Hermes and more!!!!! OH EM GEEEEE!  People if that’s not an amazing lineup, I don’t know what is!!!!!!

Jennifer Aniston’s Sartorial Switch Up!

16 Aug

The title says it all,  Miss Aniston  stepped out in something other than black recently at the London premier of her latest movie, we’re the Millers.  The navy floral frock is very different from what she normally wears and although it is very “young” there’s something about it that I like.  Perhaps I’m just happy to see her spreading her fashion wings and with that body, she can pull almost anything off!

 

Dress: Dior Resort ’13.

Dior’s Raf Simons Silences Critics with Debut!

2 Jul

Christian Dior’s show has been the talk of Paris couture week.  New designer Raf Simons’s debut at the fashion house came with speculation.  Would he live up to the iconic brand’s name?  The spectacular flower filled show took place at a grand residence near the Arc de tromphe.  There was an overwhelming support from Simons’s peers. Fellow designers Diane von Furstenberg, Marc Jacobs, Donatella Versace, Alber Elbaz and Christopher Kane among others were in attendance proving that Simons is highly respected among fashions elite.  After John Galliano’s sudden and quite scandalous departure  from Dior early last year, all eyes were on Simons and today he proved he is ready…..he did not disappoint, he triumphed!
