Paris Fashion Week Mega Post Part one!!

So i misbehaved and never did get round to posting a LFW blog, my new job has had me swamped. I'm super tired lately but i'm hoping my body will get used to it soon. Since by now EVERYONE has blogged LFW i thought i'd skip right to the Pièce de résistance and blog Paris Fashion Week. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Paris Fashion Week as it combines my two all time loves.

Paris is always great for the classic look and Christian Dior Cruise collection didn't disappoint. This is definately my favourite collection of the week.

Here are a few more of the shows that caught my eye!

John Galliano

Chanel

John Paul Gaultier

Karl Lagerfeld

(Look how cute the girly version of Lagerfeld's outfit is!!)

Vivienne Westwood

I will post my next batch of favourites soon !!

Lily Golightly

Jealousy is a TERRIBLE thing, but i think i'll be forgiven for wishing i was Lily Allen once more. These shots from the campaign for the new Chanel Cocoon show Miss Allen looking straight out of Breakfast at Tiffany's and looking amazing. Not many girls can pull off Miss Hepburn's classic signature look well, and if you look at Lily a few years back, all loud-mouthed and trainers with her sweetheart dresses you'd be forgiven for thinking there is noone worse for the role. Lately, however our little ragamuffin has classed the fuck up and now she always looks the picture of perfection. With the amount of Chanel in her wardrobe it was only a matter of time before she was being paid for it.

Parisian chic combined with Lily's girl next door cuteness sells these bags, with Karl Lagerfeld's incredible eye for photography, this campaign is sure to be a hit.

Fashion Week Day Two

So after yesterday incredible Dior show i was ready to give up hope on the rest of couture week as Galliano had already made my month with his 50's inspired collection. However, my other designer pleasure was showing and what girl doesn't love a bit of Chanel?

Beautiful. Especially that red one three up. That would be my second favourite for sure. The obvious winner for anyone who knows me is the last one i've put. It just screams couture so much! There's a real fun and girly element to this year's collection that isn't always so evident in Lagerfeld's work. It wasn't quite the oppulant all white January show but it definetly delivered that Chanel look we all know, love and covet.

Giorgio Armani said he was inspired by the movie heroines of the golden age and the show was set to 1940's music. However the collection itself doesn't have a particularly retro feel to it. I found his collection unoriginal and i just felt i had seen it all before from other designers.

At what could possibly be his last couture show, Christian Lacroix's collection was still stunning, if a little more toned down than usual.

Givenchy showed something similar to other collections from the house but it was nonetheless a good selection. i personally don't really follow Givenchy much as it's not my taste but it seemed to be well received at fashion week.
