Kicking of Fashion Month in New York. That Fashion Week that’s always suddenly there, just when you think you can sit back a bit after the Holidays, lost those food feast kilo’s, finished “dry-month”, and start to smell Spring. It’s there! BAM! Never well enough prepared, always too cold, but one of the best Fashion Weeks if you ask me. It’s for those who really love what they do, because who in their right minds likes to voluntary run around in an urban tundra, spending more time outside than in – and I’m not even going to start about cab money spendings – when it’s minus 10… Weather forecast looks not too bad though, but surely it’s not going to be warm.
It might not be the obvious thing to do, when it comes to sharing Couture images, but by extracting the colors from the images, I came to realize that I looked much more at the details of the designs than I did when they were in full-color. Needless the say, one of the beautiful things of such an amazing Couture collection is in fact the choice of colors, it creates a certain cohesion, but for once I just took another road and shared almost every single photo I took, in black and white. Now come closer to your screen and take a look at those incredible details that makes a Couture collection differ from RTW on every single level.
I’m sorry I can’t be with the Ganni team tonight to watch the FW16 show, but I will be watching it live on their website: www.ganni.com! Make sure to join me and tune in at 9PM CET.
Nothing irritates me more than dry hands, dry feet, dry lips, or any part of my skin that is dry, due to it being exposed to cold winters, air pollution, and the harshness of the water every time I was my hands or take a shower. Now don’t get me wrong, I love to take a shower and I wash my hands, regardless of the above, I just had to figure out a way of keeping the dryness out of the door. This is what I did…
Time to breath… finally… Last week and this weekend were super hectic. First of all because of my super short trip to Paris for Spring Couture Week – if you haven’t read my Chanel-story, do it now? Followed by coming home, fulfilling my mommy-duties after having been away… I will probably never get rid of that guilty feeling whenever I leave them for a few days, will I? And then, after one “day off” on Saturday, Jeff and I were shooting again on Sunday, followed by Monday taken over by The Coveteur-team for two exciting collaborations! No time for Monday-blues, just keep on going and wear more baby blue, cause isn’t this just Spring-in-an-outfit!
