paris brings it back

i was wondering where all the fashion went. it was in paris all along. of course! paris somehow never disappoints. glam glam and more glam. the 60s have definitely been alive in fashion this year in multiple collections and i'm very happy about it.

ok first up, an ode to ALEXANDER MCQUEEN. i made two separate layouts, one fancy and one just plain bad ass. it was really a beautiful collection. plus the shoes! insane. baroque glamour to its finest.

now back to the regular recap. LOOOOOOOOOOVED DRIES VAN NOTEN. so classic and casual and just amazing. YSL and ANN DEMEULEMEESTER were black-tastic this season...as per usual. they always do it right. and the older i get the more i find myself leaning towards wearing more black.

although i can't get away from color. i love color. which is why i always love the SONIA RYKIEL and TSUMORI CHISATO shows. sonia, how do you do it every season with a different hair bobble. love it. tsumori....seriously, you rule. no one does it like you do.

CHANEL....seriously what is up with those fur boots? my cat looks like that when i cut his hair off in the winter. not into it. but the clothes are pretty. always classic. just stay away from the sasquatch look. PLEASE. LOUIS VUITTON...i had a hard time picking some looks i liked. i really love the ones below but i wasn't digging the insanely oversized look. WEIRD. most people are trying NOT to look 6 times larger than they really are.

DIOR....soft, pretty, delectable. BALMAIN...long bold suits, love it. suede pants!!! i want. BALENCIAGA....looked more like spring 2011. very bright. not my favorite balenciaga collection but i'll roll with it. and the shoes were good.

fashion, italian style

i don't know what's going on in fashion right now but why are all the collections disappointing!????? so many shows from Milan that i didn't like. marni?? wow. so not good. the collections are either too boring or they're completely over the top. i don't know what happened.

luckily there were a few that i adored so let's just stick with those. FENDI...amazing. i want those suede pants damnit. plus the shapes and those fur stoles.....i want all of it.

my other hot favorite is PRADA. the more i look at it the more i'm in love with this collection. the double collar???? shit man, sign me up. i'm kind of in love with the 60s, not sure if you knew that, and this collection just got me all excited. high bun, oddly shaped glasses, patent leather double collar jacket??? NEED NEED NEED.

Missoni was also very nice as always. i love their sweaters and colors. they just look so comfy, i want to wrap myself in all of it. Dolce....lace, polks dots, animal print...of course. Bottega had some nice looks in there as well. clean lines, good colors.

everything else was just blahhhh..
