Jeudi Inspi : Mc Queen Pre Fall 2013

It appears that we're just getting an endless supply of beautiful pre-fall collections! A few more that were released have caught my eye and I'd like to share a few looks with you.

The McQueen signature has always been inspired by anglican religious medieval styles, and designer Sarah Burton wanted to evoke purity and humility through this pre fall collection.
Hence the velvet textures, parish priest silhouettes, plain white cotton dresses, or nun's wimple look-alike dresses.
Even thought rigorous purity is shown here, we can seem to highlight a slight aristocratic demoniac essence with red and black dresses with huge sweepings of velvet.
Those clothes look like they have a monumental quality -long, lean, minimal and architectural- but classic. They may have been extravagant, but they lack ornaments, as if 2013 was a chilly thus minimaly-vulgarised version of religion. Are times evolving to simplicity by coming back to the roots?

Sporty Tuesday

As you may have noticed, i mainly post my outifts on a tuesday, so stay tuned!

I always thought that the 2012's sporty tendency was not to employ head to toe. Keep some of the pieces, and combine them , i say. Buy some sneakers, a jogging, a cap, but never ever wear them together.
Here's what i do , i try to break these grungy-boyish sneakers with a lipstick, and a skirt. But not any skirt, a leather one, to fit in the tendency. And because i can't get enough of leather.
Add to the mixture a jeweled-fisherman alike sweater, and that's it, you're a 10/10.

C'est donc avec supplice  que je vais répondre à Diane (Trend Clic) qui m'a gentillement taggué.

Jeudi Inspi : Top Shop Unique Fall 13 RTW

Topshop's so called 'capsule' collection , Unique, just had an unexpected twist today at the London Fashion Week.
In fact, Topshop's unfamous funky , non-chic, uber-themed Lady Gaga-like shows sees his Unique fall runway go minimal. Shapes, colours are all grown up and high fashion. What happened? 
It is clear that under Kate Phelan, the new creative control of the brand, Unique is turning sophisticated. Fall collection is mixing whole new textures, patterns, colours, prints and sizes, a very fashion mix n match far away from the Topshop image.
Here's my favourite snapshots of the show.



Next fall, it'll be all about maxi-coats, pastel colours, sequins, silk, fur and leathery-plastic skirts.
I think this collection is, not only close to high fashion but can be also worn straight off the runway, that's a plus one for Unique.
Quite surprised also that Cara Delevingne opened the show. Isn't she overbooked? 

(A surprise i found on the internet, Unique backstage Harlem Shake haha..)

Erasmus in Bergamo

I have the pleasure to announce you that next year, I will live in Bergamo, in Italy....
I'm SO thrilled and excited about it!
I will study in the Universita degli Studi di Bergamo, in economics, with one of my best friends.
I haven't been to Italy yet, and am very curious about it, nor i speak italian! All my courses wiil be taught in italian, so, wish me good luck!
Nonetheless, it will give this blog an italian twist, and i'll be glad to share it with you!

But first of all, what is Bergamo?



Bergamo (or Bergame for french speakers) is a small city located in the north of Italy, very close to Milan and not far from Venezia, in a region called Lombardia.
As it is in the north of Italy, it is close to the Alps, so the weather is not so warm there.
The city is old and established on a mountain, which gives it a medieval blend, and the main food is .. pizza and pasta! There are plenty of activites available there, and the Erasmus life is quite complete of what i heard.

If you have any good plans, or if you have been to Bergamo already, don't hesitate to tell me about it! I want to know everything!

Also, if you are a blogger from Bergamo or Milano, i'll be delighted to meet you guys next year!


(Hey! Since i'm in Bergamo right now, this article has updates! See here for part 2 -french speakers ony sorry)

Leather & Cashemere

I always thought that i girl had to have printed pants in her wardrobe .
For me, printed pants is what spices up any outfit, but the most difficult part out of it is the combination.
What do i wear with a printed pant? I would definitely answer leather. It rocks the outfit, and highlights the print of the pant.
Here's one of my latest buys, found in sale at Zara, but had seen it long before and wanted to purchase it anyways! I really love this cashemere print.

Après une petite absence quelque peu longue , me revoici avec un look!

Christian Louboutin SS13

Worldwide famous & women's favourite heeler Christian Louboutin just released his SS13 campaign.
He has again called the talented photographer Peter Lippmann, and the result is a lookbook that looks more of an artwork than a marketing tool!

This year's inspiration is "fishing the men"  with the idea of how any woman can seduce a man with a pair of Louboutin! It also appears that the Louboutin can be a bait for every fashionista that happen to be on the way..
Anyway, what i really love about these ads is that there is an offset between this marvellous shoe and it's background environment, plus it gives fishing a glamourous touch!
Louboutin will never stop impressing women...
