Not a huge fan of espadrillos, but it’s (almost!) summer outside, and if I could add only one pair of shoes to my collection in this second, it would be these by Chanel, espadrillos-perfectness don’t you think?
Burgundy’s
Nail polish favourites of mine right now are Essie’s nr.487 Berry Hard and Chanel’s old classic nr.18 Rouge Noir, both are perfect shades of deep burgundy with brown undertones and quite similar, but Essie’s slightly lighter which I don’t mind, also stay’s like a rock and half the price of Chanel.
Give – Away
I’m giving away this fall’s hottest nail colour that I’ve mentioned before, it’s Chanel’s limited edition Frenzy that will hit most counters on the 24th. In order to have a chance to be the lucky one, all you need to do is comment on this post, no motivation is needed, just your name will be fine, and I’ll draw one random “winner” on Friday 17th.
The lucky one was drawn on Friday the 17th and goes by the name of Marielle Furnes, congrats!
The perfect shade of grey…
… you’ll find in a nail polish bottle by Chanel this fall called Frenzy 559, which I had on my nails while shooting in Paris. It’s the perfect creamy grey polish with a hint of lavender, and if you like me prefer more discreet and nude’ish looking nails, you’re gonna love this one. In stores from 24th of August, join the queue!
April May June
Chanel’s spring nail, April, May and June, and June looks like the perfect creamy orange I’ve been looking for!
The Little Black Jacket
Puuh, you were right guys, moving is not fun at all while you’re in the middle of it, but it will be worth it at the end of the tunnel for sure. While I upload some photos and go through my inbox that haven’t been touched for days here are Lagerfeld, Roitfeld, and SJP’s thoughts about Chanel’s Little Black Jacket during the making of the book project.
Simply bags
Here are some of my favorite bags and details spotted during fashion weeks, some last season, some classics and some new, not very surprisingly I seem to be drawn to Celine’s and Givenchy’s, but who could blame me. Except that I’m very into white bags these days the Obsedia bag by Givenchy has been hunting me for a long time, and I’m tempted to strike…..
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!
Chanel – the making
You’ve probably seen the beautiful Chanel spring campaign by now, where Joan Smalls and Saskia de Brauw perform gymnastics hanging above the sea, seen through the lens of Lagerfeld himself. Here’s a behind-the-scene-video from the shot that took place in Cap d’Antibes, and if you’re not already longing for summer by the sea, this might get you started….
Happy Friday noon!
Outside Chanel
Though life goes on after fashion weeks I hope you don’t mind more images from Paris, as I’ve got loads of them. These are snapshots outside the Chanel show at Grand Palais the morning the fall winds turned. Karlie Kloss fresh from the Chanel runway, Christina Centenera’s sharply cut front and the Abu Khadra twins, regular showgoers in Paris.
Sunset
Fashion Week in Paris is a little crazy but I love it and indian summer continues so it’s back on with everything called summery clothes. My first day here was a little hectic though, perhaps due to the fact I was limping around in flats and at the end of the day, around sunset, just before the light was all gone, I realized I hadn’t got outfit photos taken, hence the blurry dark quality.
Anyway I wore top by Isabel Marant, shorts Acne, shoes Zara, bag Chanel, sunnies Phillip Lim, watch Michael Kors, bracelets Hermes and Intermix.
Denim on denim
Yesterday I managed to get my outfit taken over here with my own camera and I finally got to wear my denim shirt by Celine. As I’m a little into denim on denim looks I paired it with my denim looking shorts by Acne.
Now, on the run out but I’m gonna check in a little later on, have a wonderful day!

Nail news
Though I’ve felt like wearing more natural shades on my nails lately, constantly sporting Chanel’s 493 Jade Rose, I might feel tempted to try one of these shades from Chanel’s limited edition, Les Jeans de Chanel, that will hit stores 8th of September.
Another nail news is Alexander Wang‘s first beauty effort that includes his very own nail color collection from Sally Hansen and will debut at his Spring show in NY in a few weeks…..
Oops…
Say hello to my new Balenciaga sandals, I love the metal buckle on the side and they are so comfortable, in fact, I could actually run a marathon in these, but probably my physics would restrict me way sooner than the heels. They will also be perfect to wear with socks and tights when in gets cooler, to sum up, totally in love!
Fresh from a pedicure appointment my toes are wearing 307 Chanel Orange Fizz…..
