Paris Parts 1, 2, and 3

Oh, I went a little crazy compiling looks from Paris, but there was clearly a lot to choose from. I tried my hand at some collages. For not using image software in a while, I'd say it went pretty well. Have a look (click on the picture for a larger version):

1. Rick Owens- Quite a powerful statement here. Super heros! 2. Looks from Mcqueen's final collection. Ornate and thouroughly impressive. 3. Ann Demeulemeester- I love this red, also used in 4. (but not) 5. by Maison Martin Margiela. 6. Great mix of leopard and gold at Balmain. 7. Vionnet 8. 

Shorts at Azarro. 9. and 11. Céline looks by Phoebe Philo. 10. and 12. Dior- one casual look and one devistatingly cute blue dress.

1. Giles Deacon- leather top and skirt. 2. and 3. Two full skirted looks from Louis Vuitton (one of them in great brown leather). One of the best collections this season, in my humble opinion. 4., 6., and 9. Dries Van Noten- I loved the leopard scarf. A great touch! 5. and 8. Balenciaga- layered peach dress and a newsprint top over skinny cut pants. 7. Stella McCartney. 10., 14., and 16. Obviously, I loved Lanvin. Alber Elbaz really hit it out of the park with his pleating and tailoring. 11. Ostrich bow heels at Vuitton. 12. Another Vuitton look. This bustled skirt is really amazing. I love it pared with the sweater. A cardigan would look great, too. 13. Two looks from Chloe. This collection hit a chord with me. Very classic and wearable. 15. Balenciaga heels- we'll definitely see these in print soon. Looks like a loafer made from children's toys. 17. Dries wedges.

1. Giambattista Valli. 2. Stella McCartney- a train added to a beautiful  hot pink, silk t-shirt dress. 3. Purple YSL look- abundant color in this collection. 4. Valentino. 5. Black and white YSL look with a fur shawl. 6. Miu Miu. 7. Hermès long, black, leather trench. 8. Rochas- This collection was one of my favorites. Tons of color at Rochas! 9. Roland Mouret. 10. Valentino white mini dress. This is really well tailored--sorry you can't see it very well! 11. and 15. Valli again, but these skirts are just amazing! 12. YSL- If this an excuse to wear yellow, I'm so in! 13. Hermès- pumpkin colored tights are definietely something to consider. 14. A similar color at Miu Miu in a cute mini dress. 16. Stella McCartney's red lace is just beautiful. 17. and 22. Nina Ricci ensemble and shoe. Copping also showed sheer back dress and blouses (as seen below 5.). Gorgeous detail. 18. and 20. More Rochas, more color, more fantastic cuts! 19. YSL royal blue look, but the feather detail in the back is just beautiful. 21. YSL shoe.

How exhausting! I've got some fun things in the works, though now I need a break as compiling this post was a few weeks in the works! The warm weather here at home is definitely reviving me from a winter slump. A good thing because I hear the weather has been just awful since I left NYC.

Hope you enjoyed this!
