One of the true highlights of Paris Haute Couture week is – since two years – the Bonpoint fashion. And you’ve heard me saying this before, but it is truly the happiest show, every season again. Obviously they have the cutest lineup, and smiles are 100% guaranteed. Although, each season there’s one sweet pea who decides – just when stepping on the runway – that this is NOT HAPPENING!! This, again “obviously”, makes for the sweetest moments. Free to run back to their spot backstage, they go. Understandable, because walking in a fashion show is not for every kid. Sometimes starting at the age of 2, they have to walk down a runway with countless people on both sides smiling at you, but most impressively; looking at YOU! James and Stella walked the show for the second time, and here I’m sharing some of the most memorable moments – plus, of course, all my favorite looks of the Bonpoint Fall-Winter 2018 show! Be prepared for MANY photos to come…
Four times per year – I still can’t believe it’s that many times actually – I’m in Paris for Fashion Week. Twice for ready-to-wear and twice for Haute Couture, which in fact, was just over week a week ago! I’m sure you’ve seen some of my instagram coverage of the adventures Couture brought, but it’s mostly focussed on the highlights, with the exception of some day-to-day activities on my stories. But, as you know, too, I like to make it “picture perfect” so even there it’s always “real, but with a beautiful filter”. However, what I didn’t really share are the moment in-between; a quick croissant run to the bakery next door, a fitting around the corner from my hotel, or the lunch meeting in my favorite restaurant… I am, quite obviously, not doing that in the outfits I wear to the Haute Couture shows! So here’s my guide to the ultimate day-to-night “Parisian” look, even though I’m not a Parisian by blood.
You can’t imagine how proud I am seeing this video. Obviously I experienced this same feeling a few days back, while I was looking at my two cute babies walking down the Bonpoint runway for the second time, but being away from home – in Palm Spring for a press trip, which I can’t complain about – the feeling get EXTRA.
We just got back from a long weekend upstate, and my head is already overflowing with things to do, ideas for the blog, and preparations for Paris Haute Couture, and OF COURSE: The Bonpoint Fall-Winter 2018 show!!! It’s that time of year again, and I couldn’t be more excited! Couture is and will always be my favorite fashion week of the season. The pace in which things go during that week is a thousand times better than the nerve wrecking and completely exhausting Ready-to-wear week. Nonetheless, I love that week too, but IF I had to make a choice, you and I know which one I would go for. Another upside is a more private one, do you know what I’m talking about…
This is the first time I’m writing a something about the Golden Globes, and I think with the impact this season has had so far, and the direction we are going with Thefashionguitar.com, it couldn’t be a better moment to start. So there are basically a few important things you need to know about the 75th Golden Globe Awards, honoring film and American television of 2017: 8 female activists were brought as a +1 in support of the #MeToo movement and with that given platform for their causes, there was an all-black dress code in support of Time’s Up, Oprah made a speech that left us speechless, and – of course – this year’s Golden Globe winners…
