Print Pantsuit, Outside Dries Van Noten FW2020

A look from Paris, February 2020. I am long on loud prints and colors for spring. Getting dressed to leave the house has taken on a sort of performative aspect since no one is dressing to go to the office anymore – so why follow the rules? Wear whatever you like, the wilder, the better.

High Contrast: Caroline Daur in Off White PFW FW2017

Another visually arresting color combo, this time on Caroline Daur in Off White at Paris fashion week. This look is also a great example of how to wear boots with a skirt or dress.

Work It: Christine Centenera at Loewe SS2017

Christine Centenera at Loewe SS2017

Another great look that also works for the office. Christine Centenera wore a blazer over a knit skirt and top to the Loewe show. It isn’t all business though: click through to see a sexy detail in the back of the jacket.  (more…)

Reporting for Duty: Yoyo Cao at Loewe SS2017

Yoyo Cao at Loewe SS2017

Yoyo Cao arrived at the Loewe show in a cadet cap and Prince of Wales plaid pants suit. Surprisingly popular among fashion week guests, pant suits have shed their dowdy image and now feature updated, flattering cuts and colors that would work both in and out of the office.

Samantha Angelo at Chloe SS2016

New blogger Samantha Angelo of The Eye Travels turned heads this fashion week season with her statuesque beauty and flair for mixing different pieces. Outside the Chloe show in Paris, she belted a long Dries Van Noten coat, part trench and part duster, over an Acne dress with a pointed collar and Mary Jane-style Charlotte Olympia shoes. The military subtext to the outfit may especially work for another reason: she actually served in the Marines as a clarinetist in the United States Marine Band! Certainly a multi-talented player on the fashion scene.

Color Story: Margaret Zhang at Chloe FW2015

Margaret Zhang at Chloe FW2015

It may still be too cold for shorts, but you can always change the story by shifting to spring colors, like this caramel and navy outfit on Margaret Zhang at Chloe. A silk scarf tied at the neck is not just a classic look but an instant spring 2015 update.

How Suede It Is: Chiara Ferragni at Chloe FW2015

Chiara Ferragni at Chloe FW2015Really liking the look of this caramel-colored suede for spring 2015. Apparently everyone agrees with me, because suede pieces similar to this Chloe shorts and jacket combo on Chiara Ferragni are selling out everywhere.

Candice Lake at Moncler Gamme Rouge FW2015

Candice Lake at Moncler Gamme Rouge FW2015Photographer and blogger Candice Lake wore a pretty combination of a long suede coat and long white tulle ruffled skirt with boots at the Moncler Gamme Rouge show in Paris. No matter how edgy and dark fashion (and fashion photography) can get – romance is not dead!

Giovanna Battaglia at Miu Miu FW2015

Giovanna Battaglia at Miu Miu FW2015One of the people we will miss seeing in the off season: Giovanna Battaglia, always a sunny presence on the fashion scene! She wore some great brocade boots and a cute hat to the Miu Miu show in Paris. Also on our radar: brown, traditionally a fall color, has been appropriated by the fashion set for spring. Perhaps it’s part of that ’70s vibe going on right now.

Ada Kokosar at Alexander Wang

A cool and unusual look on Ada Kokosar on a hot and steamy day: brown silk fringe blouse and a baby blue pleated skirt. The pop on blue on the bag brings it all together.
