Darie Werbowy definitely knows how to rock her purple Balmain biker pants. She brings Balmain back to glory for ME.

If you dare trying (and sneaking a peek at the price!) this suede leather masterpiece go here!

After last season’s distressed military look, Decarnin choose to go Baroque chic for his new collection and brings back some Louis XIV decadence to Paris. He stays true to the big-shoulders silhouette and plays with lots of gold and brocade. I LIKE a lot!!

Can’t wait to hold the actual new issue of Vogue Paris in my hands.

German top model and natural beauty Toni Garn photographed by Knoepfel and Indlekofer for the September issue of German Vogue.

On this shot she is wearing this season’s IT piece and Les Coupines’ FAVOURITE: the sequined, striped sweater with sharp shoulders. Decarnain manages to combine three key trends in one single piece without overdoing it. Unfortunately, this Balmain piece is well out of our reach, but we love the alternative by French brand Sandro.

… back to the 80’s…Balmainia…best trend for fall/winter… BIG SHOULDERS!

As you can see, I am totally and irrationally into the whole big shoulder thing. A few seasons ago shoulder pads would have been a sure fashion crime, NOW they are all over the place – thanks to fashion genius Christophe Decarnin!

So you can imagine how thrilled I was to discover this great, big shoulder blazer chez ZARA a few weeks ago…

It has a perfect fit and great details! Right now I wear it with my beloved jeans shorts and a simple tee, but I can’t wait to style it for fall with some great leggins, an oversized cardigan and overknees…until then enjoy the last days of summer!
