Paris Fashion Week, Day 7...

Hello and happy Tuesday! Yesterday's shows in Paris were absolutely stunning. I'm so thrilled by all of the collections (especially Sonia Rykiel and the first collection from their new designer!).

Let's take a look at some of the trends and my favorite looks:

Military influence has been a part of many collections, but we haven't really touched on it here. Sonia Rykiel's collection had a lot of fur, military buttons, and army green mixed with feminine shoes, ruffles, and fur. I absolutely adored every look!

Shorter dresses are always essential! Designers are using prints and cutouts to make these garments look new and fresh.

Left: Saint Laurent
Right: Elie Saab (LOVE these slits - looks sexy without giving too much away)

Midi and maxi looks are most prominent for SS '15. I love the mixture of textures and cutouts that give these long looks some lightness.

Left: Emmanuel Ungaro (the lace gives texture and sheerness!)
Middle: Giambattista Valli (branch inspiration mixed with that textured skirt tho??)
Right: Stella McCartney

What do you think of the shows? Do you have a favorite look or trend? Let me know!

Enjoy your day kittens <3

Paris Fashion Week, Day 2...

Bonjour and happy Thursday to everyone! I'm thoroughly enjoying PFW and all of the latest shows. Let's recap yesterday and see what the best looks were and do some trend spotting:

I noticed a lot of patterns from beading yesterday! I love the shine and texture that it gives - really makes the garment special.
Left: Guy Laroche (how adorable is the matching bag?!)
Right: Dries Van Noten (totally Summer of Love)

Some garments were actually FUN! Whimsy is really important in fashion week, and sometimes designers forget that. It's supposed to be dreamy! I love the fun prints and pops of glitter.
Left: Sonia by Sonia Rykiel (those little bananas tho...)
Right: Rochas

Mainly, the biggest trend I noticed was textured neutrals. Lots of white/cream/peach but with extra texture to give them depth, like fringe, 3D elements, or patterns. I love this trend!
Left: Cédric Charlier
Middle: Vionnet
Right: Balenciaga (All hail Alexander Wang!)

What do you think about PFW so far? Any supreme hits or misses? I know that people were not too thrilled with Rochas (seatbelt-esque belts going across the chest?!).

Enjoy your Thursday kittens <3
