After two last collections, I could not really relate to ( never really digged into the flannel + velvet based “Wall Street gone sexy look” from last winter and the mostly whitesummer collection), I’m officially back under the Wang spell…I’m crazy about EVERY singel look of his cool girl uniform:
… head to toe black, leather pants + cropped jackets, pops of fur…
…the long, slashed satin skirts (for me the ONLY way to work the maxi skirt trend!!) + heavy knits…
New York Fashion Week has officially started! Feeling really inspired by Vogue.com’s impressive line-up of ‘key players’ (including everyone from the designers to the models to the nightlife kings) sharing their fashion week essentials in a beautifully photographed story by The Coveteur.

‘I’m very much into a suede pump these days, and this hot-pink pair from Manolo Blahnik amps up any look—and they’re comfortable.’
‘My Chanel bag was a gift from my husband, David, but I picked the color.’
Right now, I just wish/hope/pray I’ll be saying the exact same sentence one sweet day (except for my Chanel has to be tomato red! Ha ha!)
Harley Viera-Newton, DJ
‘I always have Hermès leather gloves because not only do they keep my hands warm, they are also the best accessory ever—two birds, one stone.’
Sarah Brown, VOGUE Beauty director
‘I needed something that could fit invitations, stacks of WWDs, a notebook, perhaps an iPad, and, quite possibly, an extra pair of shoes. Alber Elbaz to the rescue!’
Natalie Joos, casting director and blogger
‘This time of year, it really helps to have a nice, warm coat to run around the city and I recently found this amazing cashmere Céline in baby blue. It has big pockets that hold my cell phone.’
Jessica Sailer, VOGUE market editor
‘A Flip camera black Céline motorcycle jacket for day and night.’
Kate Young, Stylist
‘Givenchy boots: I haven’t worn them yet, but I love them. I’m going to be so tall!’
Almost off to Austria for a much-anticipated skiing weekend! When browsing the web for a little inspiration I came across these holiday ’snapshots’ of the lovely Elin. I think her JLindeberg total look topped off with a vintage fur hat kicks ass!
Really like the fact that she kept her outfit simple and sportive. People tend to go a little over the top on their winter escape. You know what I mean?
I have put together a collage of what I am (ideally) packing for my trip to the mountains. Be inspired!
Ever since starring in Sofia Coppola’s newest movie Somewhere ( a must-see for everyone who loves Sofia’s poetic and intellectual aesthetics), little Elle is one the rise! With her young age of twelve, she is not only stunning in the role as protagonist Cleo, but has also given proof of an excellentfashion sense. She even made it on the cover of the December/ January issue of favourite French fashion magazineJalouse.
Elle was shot for a really cute editorial, which is not only beautifully styled, but above all refreshinglyage-appropriate (which is most of the times quite tricky to achieve …)
The brand newMissoniSpring campaign perfectly captures the fashion house’s eclectic and bohmian spirit.
It mixes a cool crowd of people, ranging from family and close friends, like Eugenie Niarchos and Tatiano Santo Domingo, over gossip girl star Leigthon Meester (who looks truely adorable here) to socialits, artists and collectors.
This is pretty much what I wanna look like in 2011. Isabel Marant’s S/S 2011 collection sums up all of my New Year’s style resolutions;-). Very simple.
I am a huuuge fan fan of mixing simple cotton sweaters with flirty little skirts! Perfect oufit for a first date…;-)
Yes, OKAY. Isabel Marant’s style hasn’t evolved so much from her previous collections. Even the shoes are the same. But do we care?
LOVE the red! And the hair. And the make-up…
Too bad you can’t really see the jacket in this one. I found it in the buying folder this morning and let me tell you this is THE piece that will instantly lift up all of your summer staples and make any rolled-up-denim-outfit look très Parisienne. TRUST me;-).
Those mini-shorts are so hot! Okay, I honestly would not know where to wear these with a knit sweater (I mean, common!) but that’s what fashion is about: escaping reality.
Wishing you a splendid, happy & utterly stylish New Year!
Sorry for not updating more often, guys! But I am a working girl…;-) So this post is dedicated to the place I spend most of my time at: le desk.
I found these pics in the amazingly beautiful Rue Mag. The second issue recently came out and I LOVE every single page. It just boasts with inspiration!
I definitely need an inspiration board. It would be overloaded with the most random snippets after just one week though…
What does your desk look like? It deserves to look just as pretty as your closet;-)!
This would be my ideal conference room! A pleasant, inviting place where everyone can just pop in and join the conversation;-). Creativity should start here.
