With the launch of Valentino’s Star Studded Collection last week – which is undoubtedly one of my absolute favorites EVER – I could finally join my two-year-old Stella in her obsession over tulle skirts AND dedicate a post to this incredible look from last Paris Fashion Week… What is it with girls and tulle skirts?
When I think about Spring, I think about cropped jeans, flat shoes, simple t-shirts and jackets, and, of course, a new bag in a beautiful SS16 color. Here’s that perfect Spring-look in the flesh, shot in my favorite city in the whole wide world, but in an area I wasn’t that familiar with yet…
Two years ago I bought a pair of cropped jeans – I think they were by Stella McCartney – for a super duper reduced price. The fact that they were so cheap was probably because nobody thought these awkward length pants and shape would ever come back into fashion.. Boy have we been wrong!
If you would ask about my favorite colors, I would without any doubt tell you navy and dark green share the number one spot, followed by an on and off relationship with mustard yellow, a red-addiction on some occasions, and of course bubble gum pink, when I feel like it. Other colors, as much as I love the idea of “liking” them, they just don’t pass the bar. On me. Let’s be clear here, on me, which doesn’t mean I don’t like them in general. No judgement! But finding “your” colors is like… mmm really freaking hard! It took me about 30 years, and I still am sometimes pulled to the dark side – all black errrrrything… So the story of true color-love is fragile… but it’s there!
Gosh, where did the time go? This shoot feels like yesterday, when in fact it was early December last year when we jumped up and down on hotel beds and strolled casually around Union Square to capture ”My Perfect Saturday” for Ralph Lauren Magazine…
