Oh crazy day!



Today was a little intense. Packing for NY fashion week + my husband's birthday celebration this evening= very tired and off to bed. Hopefully my plane will not be delayed because of the impending blizzard due to hit NYC any minute now. Wish me luck!!!!!!!

French cool



The exceptionally creative, super charming and ever stylish Garance Doré. And yes that is her new Sofia Coppola for Louis Vuitton bag. She also has it in cobalt. I love it! I am the same way. When something works really well for me, I buy multiples.

Fur

I'm in the mood for fur today. Are You? I mean it doesn't look like winter is going away any time soon. Have you heard about the blizzard that's assailing Washington D.C.? The district is basically paralyzed. So I say, grab a warm cup of something or a cup of something that keeps you warm (hey it's the weekend), and let's look at some great fur looks that I captured during Milan men's fashion week.



cropped- A great smile tops off Avril's Russian Folklore-inspired look.



vested- Sarah, always stylish with perfectly measured edge, giving of total chic-nonchalance in a V-neck mini and sleek OTKs.



pocketed- Sherwin, another stylish member of the Prada visual team, is the sweetest person ever! And, he always has the most enviable hem lengths!



military luxe- Ekaterina's look was hard for me to resist. Have, I mentioned my love for military-inspired style, especially parkas? Ekaterina goes straight for my heart by layering this old Mandarina Duck parka over a fantastic Boss Orange textured maxi-sweater with fur collar. The layering here creates such great movement in the look. No?



vintage- If you are anything like me, and itching to get into some of spring's hottest trends without freezing your tooshie off, then Giulia's look will totally inspire you. Throw on your favorite vintage fur chubby with a pair of soft, fluid pants and accessorize the look with a vintage structured purse. And voilà, spring is in the air!

A Stylish Bird • Sarah







While riding the complementary shuttle bus between the Canali and Versace men's' shows, I had the pleasure of chatting with Sarah and her friends, and listening to their very thoughtful opinions about designers like Marc Jacobs and Alber Elbaz (Sarah respects Elbaz for his directness and adores his kindness.)

From our conversation, I gathered that Sarah is a part of the current generation of multitaskers (smitten with multitaskers this week) who, by their hands-on-approach, are taking the fashion industry by storm. They have boundless energy, and are an inspiration for me when I am exhausted and my imagination taxed.

Now based in Paris, Sarah hails from South Korea and spent her childhood in the US, UK, and are ready u ready for this, Namibia! Even though she just recently finished her studies at Ecole de la Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne, she has already done design work for Balenciaga and Lanvin and has freelanced as a stylist. In addition to these impressive accomplishments, she also finds the time to design gorgeous jewelry. Like the necklace pictured above, she says that her creations tend to have "a very earthy, ethnic feel as well as very contrasting digital and geometric textures."

With all these accomplishments under her Lanvin belt, she now has her sights set on conquering the Magazine world! Knock 'em dead darling! Use those beautiful YSL mittens!
