Anna dello Russo and Alexander Wang striking a pose in the designer’s new Soho Store.

Of course this week has been all about New York Fashion Week!

1. Even if most of us just follow the shows on lifestream (thanks god for the social media revolution!!), it never hurts to study a little fashion week etiquette, right? Check out Queen Anna’s  10 Fashion Week  and 10 Frontrow rules!

2. Get an inside peek into fashion week life with Lane Crawford fashion director and streetsytle star in the making Sarah Rutson, who is writing an online diary for fashionologie.

3. Don’t miss out on Yvan’s hunt strategy during NY fashion week. Watch the 2 part movie by Alexander Klein here and here.

4. Alexander Wang did not only show us a great collection this week, but also opened his first Soho store. It’s sure to be the new fashion mecca for all the cool girls in town!

5. Leaving fashion week craziness for a second: Nowness has given us a very inspirational piece of work this week with Martin de Thurah’s Film I. A surreal mix of darkness and poetry and totally captivating!

Now the journey will continue in London…don’t miss out on the livestreams of Burberry Prorsum, Mark Fast, Topshop Unique…see the whole schedule here.

Happy Friday, xx

Recently, I have been totally obsessed with headbands. Ever since my dearest friend Helena sent me one for my birthday, I cannot stop wearing them. Last week I got one from Jennifer Behr, they’re just the best! I’m telling you, headbands are gonna be THE hottest accessory for the summer, so better get your stock up soon!!

1. You can never go wrong with this chain-embellished headband by Jennifer Behr (via net-a-porter).

2. Take some inspirations from THE Queen of headbands Rumi.

3. Camilla headband by Eugenia Kim (via net-a-porter) , the ultimate accessory for a girls’ night out .

4. Spice up a simple “Tee + Jeans” outfit with the circle feather headband from Topshop.

5. Missoni plaited woven headband if you wanna go hippie de luxe (via net-a-porter).

6. Headbands are an obligatory part of the festival uniform (as captured by the Facehunter at Coachella).

I am totally obsessed with hats right now…

If you wanna mix with the cool crowd in le Marais you absolutely need to wear a hat, so there is no way I could survive Spring in Paris without having one!

The hunt for the perfect hat has officially begun!

Pictures by the Sartorialist and by the Facehunter.

As always she was incredibly sweet and stylish with her cropped coat and her Chloe lace-up booties – no wonder the Facehunter wanted to take a pic of her..

So I followed Garance a bit, while she was searching a new motive…

…which she found with the incredibly gorgeous Miroslava Duma in a total Chloe look…

…so I tried myself with the same motiv..

Hmm, guess whose picture is gonna be better…;)?!

Take a cue from these two fashion week beauties on how to instantly spice up an outfit.  

Its easy: Take out your favourite sequins party top and pair it with basic day time staples for an effortless yet glamorous look.

Due to my Master thesis I have been dealing a lot lately with the use of new media in marketing so I was delighted about this new, innovative project by Burberry. The art of the trench is an online platform, which was created in cooperation with the Sartorialist and which is a fabulous hommage to our all-time favourite piece of clothing. The site shows a great selection of streetstyle pictures of people wearing their trenchcoats across all major fashion capitals. Check it out here, its a great source of inspiration and it’s even possible to upload your own pics;-)

This new project is a brilliant marketing concept and it’s great to see that our favourite bloggers are gaining ever more influence in the fashion industry. On a smaller scale, Lacoste has been working on a similar project together with the Facehunter. So we hope to see more of such work in the future!

As for the trench, Les Coupines just love this most versatile (check out our Summer version of the look) and chicest of all clothing pieces, which is key to each wardrobe. If you are not able to splurge on the Burberry version, there are some other great alternatives by ACNE, Twenty8Twelve and Topshop!
