A poster like this was in the summer displayed in all of Copenhagen at the bus stops. I was so lucky that my mother got me one of them to display in my home. It's very large but so nice, and now it's hanging in my kitchen to remind me of Paris and Dior. To fabulous things. This picture is taking in Paris at the store by Saint Germain the last time I went there. It's about seven months ago. So I think it's about time that I go back there. After all; it is my city.

When I'm going to Ladurée...

Paris I'm on my way!


So in two weeks time I'm going to Paris. And two of the essential places for me to go is #1 Chanel in Rue Cambon, and #2 Ladurée on Rue Royale to eat french macaroons. Perhaps the two things can be done at the same time. I would personally very much like to wear this green Chanel suit while eating green macaroons with a view to the Madelaine Church. Paris here I come. I'm looking forward to see you again!

We all need a bit of Stella




Until this this season (fall/winter 2009) I didn't really understood all the fuss about Stella McCartney. But suddenly I see. She is amazing. Firstly I think it's great that she is not using any fur or real leather. I love both fur and leather, but I still think it's cool that she can make such beautiful winter clothing with out any. I think it's the right time for a collection and a an approach to fashion like that. I personally can't wait till I'm going to Paris in two weeks, and go to the Stella store there. I need some Stella in my life!

What went wrong with good old depend-on-sexy-clothes-Cavalli?



I have to ask: "What went wrong here Roberto?" Milan has always been the fashion city out of the four (New York, London and Paris) that you knew would deliver some serious sexy-as-hell dresses. But it seems as if Milan is growing up and wants to be more serious than that. A situation I don't understand since the sexy dress part worked so fine. New York got the sportswear, London the avantgarde, Paris the chicness and Milan the sexyness. Versace, Gucci and Roberto Cavalli always delivered the greatest dresses for girls like Angelina Jolie, Beyoncé and Dita von Teese. Versace and Gucci are still going strong, still with sex appeal but in a much more decent way, and a much more boring way. But then the is Roberto Cavalli. Always a man we depended on making a good damn hot dress. Well... it seems like he is going in an other direction far far away from his roots. And that I don't mean in a good way. The female/male touch in a romantic blend is just so not Cavalli. It could perhaps work for Miu Miu or Chloé. But not for Cavalli. I think the average Cavalli woman will be very disappointed.

Laces!

When I saw this dress from the Dolce and Gabbana spring/summer 2010 show I immediately thought of the shoe-booties from Christian Louboutin. Laces are a good old trend that season after season find its way back to the runways. I think it's quite hard to wear laces without going totally in to a amish/grandmother mood. But these two fashion items are just lovely.

In my dreams I wear Lanvin

Lanvin is yet again in the top ten of all the collections shown the last two months. No wonder. Alber Elbaz does what he does best; dress women - and dress them beautifully. He has a true love for women. He has a love for women, and a love for details. The details that matters. Only the essential is left at Lanvin. A real fashionista can spot a Lanvin dress miles away, and I believe that is what makes a good designer - a touch that's unmistakable. There's really lots of great dresses out there. But my dream dress is still a Lanvin.

The future is now





Apparently reptile patterens are the new black. According to Alexander Mcqueen. He really got a inventive mind and creativity. He always amaze his clients. Me included. That is why I think he's one of our time greatest designers. The shoes are quite odd and to crazy for my taste. It's clear that the shoes in this show are show pieces that will never get in the stores.

Big Bang

I would love to be the lucky owner of this little black dress by Gianfranco Ferré, that kind of look like a Big Bang dress in tulle. Fabulous!
Class that fits Paris. Luxury that fits Milan.




I always look forward with great excitement to Bottega Veneta's show. Thomas Maier is a true artist when it comes to discreet luxury. It's clear to see, even on just pictures on a computer, that Thomas Maier only uses the best materials. He must have a fantastic team of tailors to make such beautiful shaped clothes. What I really like about it is that it's not really that Milan-like. It's so classy and chic that it in one way fits better in Paris, but still the luxury is so typical Italian. Especially when it comes to the leather goods such as the shoes and of cause the bags. One day I just gotta have a Bottega Veneta bag!
Back to Tom Ford


Last night Gucci held their spring/summer 2010 show in Milan. A cool collection by Frida Giannini. Show after show I have become a bigger and bigger fan of her. Perhaps because it could seem as if she is going back to the Tom Ford era. The grey dress is by Giannina, while the purple is by Tom Ford. It's a true Gucci look; short, tight, shinny, and sexy, sexy, sexy.

A Prada web


This dress by Prada is like a spiders web in the morning with dew. Pretty hard to wear, but still fabulous.

Is Marc Jacobs really that fab?




I really like Marc Jacobs and what he can do with fabrics, shapes and colors. But sometimes I think he goes a bit to far, and apparently it's only me. Every one is love-love-loving every thing Marc Jacobs does. It's like every thing he touches is becoming gold. But come on; look at it...
Posh is still going strong


So this is Victoria Beckham's third collection. And it's no secret that I'm a big fan of her style and her work as a fashion designer. I think her collections are fabulous and very chic, but I must say that if she wants to stay in business she have to look more in to day-wear. Her evening-wear is gorgeous but unfortunately it's not every one who can wear a red carpet dress all around the clock. Myself included...

Beautiful Marchesa



New York Fashion week is just over. I think it was a great week with a lot of great collections. Lots of colors and new ideas. Here is three looks from Marchesa that I really would love to be the lucky owner of! Beautiful tailoring, great graphic touch and shapes and a fab purple to die for!

Beautiful backs



This is why I love Chanel. The Haute Couture for fall 2009 was as always just beautiful. Especially the backs of the dresses caught my eye. Sigh...!
