Last weekend we did our first outfit shoots for this fall, it was a beautiful day and the light was just perfect. While Sarah went for faux fur, I decided to play a bit with forms. So I paired my drop-crotch pants with sculptural shoulders.

I was totally delighted when I found this shirt with puffy shoulders chez Zara. It reminds a lot of this one by Isabel Marant, while being a lot more affordable:)

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!

I like contrasts. So I was extremely happy when I found this shoulder-padded cardigan/jacket/awesome piece at H&M yesterday. The color is a powdery rose which perfectly sets off the sharp-shoulders and makes it work for late summer days as well as fall.

I paired it with a simple tank, cut-off denim shorts and lots of necklaces. It basically goes with everything though!

These white cut-off shorts used to be a pair of boring Marc by Marc Jacobs bermudas I brought from San Diego. I recently found them in the basement and decided that it was time for a comeback – with a sexier distressed look;-).
