Phoebe Philo photographed by David Sims for the first issue of the gentlewoman.
Apart from being a truely stellar designer (back then at Chloe and now at Celine…), Phoebe Philo just has this incredible natural beauty!
Have a look at the other shots of the story:
J’ adore the very particular, slightly spooky mood of this short movie with Lindsay Wixson and Mariacarla Boscono shot in 34, Avenue Foch, the location of MiuMiu’s last fashionshow here in Paris.
Sorry for the recent lack of posts, I’m gonna be back with more very soon!

Usually, I’m more the “pink kind of girl“…but lately I realized that I might be even more drawn to red…its all in the details:
Red Timex watch, bought at chez Maman in Paris (coolest watch shop ever!!!)…
… O.P.I. big apple red (I’m wearing it non-stop)…
Marc Jacobs lipstick pen, my most stylish school accessory (seriously, I get lots of compliments about it, it even grasps the attention of the teachers…haha)
…and finally my beloved Prego bikerboots with the red zipper at the back…
Red is my new pink ;-) !!
It is such a beautiful weather here in Paris, so I decided to go for a stroll in the lovely park next to my place…
I wore my new Parka for the first time and tried to strike some serious military like poses for the pics… well I guess I ended up more like making a fool of myself infront of the Parisian families of my quartier…
Parka by Stella Forest, belt by Zadig&Voltaire, shorts Zara, Falke tights customized by myself.
Despite her 17 years, Karlie Kloss is one of the most desired models in the industry!! She is kind of omnipresent, but still I never get tired of watching her! This month she scored two amazing editorials in Vogue UK and Teen Vogue. Although, she goes fine in very glamorous looks, I really like her in these sports inspired outfits (particularly the A.Wang pieces!!) and very natural as an “all Amercian girl”.

There’s a section inside Topshop with all the single pieces and it’s called “Buy it now – or regret it later”. I believe that this was invented specifically for me (and all girls like me). I have fashion regrets all the time! Everyday. Every season. I tend to either like the stuff of next season (which I can’t get my hands on) OR of past seasons. From a retrospective it suddenly all makes sense to me and I know exactly which pieces were worth buying (lasting power!) while I am totally overstrained with figuring out what I should get for the CURRENT season. Then I get obsessed with last season’s highlights and will try to source them from literally EVERYWHERE (Yoox, vintage stores, friends, ebay…). I decided to share a “best of” of my fashion regrets with you (AND I WANNA KNOW ABOUT YOURS, LADIES!):
1. The Yves Saint Laurent Muse 2 in BLUE!!! By far my biggest regret and top of that my colleague has it! So I am basically tortured everyday…
2. The Marni wedges from F/W 2007 are still incredibly hot. I found them in a bronze patent leather version but finally decided it just wasn’t the same thing…Lucky Jane!
3. The Prada belt from the F/W 2009 runway show is just too perfect for any kind of belted outfit (dress, cardi, coat, ANYTHING!). Black is still available but I want brown. Of course…
The pink hair trend was spotted on this Spring’s runway shows of Giles, Zac Posen and with some variations also at Proenza Schouler. At first, I was a bit skeptical about the actual wearability of this trend…but now that I saw it on favourite Swedish fashionblogger Carolina , I think its kinda cute!!
What do you guys think of it?

Les Coupines just love the Helmut Lang Collection for this Spring…its the right mix of clear lines and edgy prints!
1. Spray ombre silk dress, 2. Cellophane print jersey top, 3. Dry crepe ruched dress, 4. Cotton blend burn-out t-shirt, 5. Crackled leather jacket.
I’m particularly obsessed with the dry crepe ruched dress. Actually, it does not look too special on the picture above. But I tried it on last week at Merci Store here in Paris and it has the perfect fit and a sublime cut-out at the back. So, I’m currently making up all kinds of fancy events, which could justify the investment into this dress. Then again, do you ever need an excuse for a great fitting LBD?!?
