The shoes are gold strappy sandals from Zara and the clutch is Clare Vivier. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div>Elizabeth M.http://www.blogger.com/profile/09094557479405141917noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8586131524549735302.post-16893855018941790442013-09-14T10:48:00.002-04:002013-09-14T10:48:40.177-04:00From the Runway: J.Mendel Spring 2014<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Known for creating luxurious feminine and romantic looks, Gilles Mendel took on his spring collection on a different route. Down to the south pacific, to be exact, as brought by a plane crash. The designer was inspired by Serge Gainsbourg's "Cargo Cult," a song depicting a man's search from his lost love, brought down by a plane crash perhaps caused by the indigenous people of the pacific islands. The real islander can be seen in green and gold jacquard. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some dresses and blouses were a patchwork of lace and perforation. Overall, t</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">he looks were still pure of beautiful J.Mendel femininity, with lots of lace and luxe fabrics- including even a little of that famous Mendel fur. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For Delpozo's second New York debut, Josep Font presented the Madrid-based collection with a strong femininity with true glamour that is sometimes lost in this modern world. Delpozo's second season revival of the historical Spanish brand was inspired from its home and inspired by a portrait of a Gypsy by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The colors were beautiful pastels to a creamy orange and popping pink, to even a little black. Florals were paired perfectly with gingham or embellished blouses. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Voluminous skirts, floral dresses, and intricate embellishments on silk blouses or knits are perfect for those special events. But Font didn't neglect the thought of dinner pants with romantic blouses, or a little daytime dress-up with a short floral skirt, paired with a gingham top, or maxi dresses. Delpozo has proven to be wearable couture. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Light and airy was the name of the game at Nonoo's spring collection for 2014. Plenty of pastel colors filled the room in a multitude of fabrics. A pale blue long blazer with lame arms over silk trousers in the same color started the show. Then bright yellow, florals, and painted abstracts followed. Misha Nonoo's first runway show certainly gave the audience a breath of fresh air. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This summer, I was able to spend my holidays in Cap Ferret, which is on the west coast of France, close to Biarritz. Here I am out for a pre-dinner cocktail in a Club Monaco dress (which has really nice leather trimmed detailing on the pockets), French Sole silver ballerinas, a blush pink Clare Vivier clutch and Ralph Lauren metal rim sunglasses. Below, find photos from Cap Ferret and the bassin. I hope everyone had nice summer holidays, as well! </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">It's finally warm enough here that skirts and dresses can be taken out of the closet! Normally, the blue tweed skirt I would wear with darker colors for fall and winter, but the white sweater is refreshing for spring or summer. Geometric lines are very "in" right now, but I wanted to make the style my own with a nice tied cinched belt and ballerinas. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I love that Raf Simons brought the classic "lady" back to Dior. In the resort 2014 collection, he restructured the classic silhouettes into asymmetrical forms and played beautifully with sheers stripes, lace, and lots of color. I love the way he put lace, layered over striped bandeaus or gently place a stripe of it on a white dress with other printed fabrics. My favorite little detail is the crossed scarf on a v-neck blouse or dress. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today is the the first day of May, and I for one, could not be happier! I love May, not only because it is my birthday month, but also I really feel the beautiful weather of spring going into summer! Unfortunately, it has been a cold spring here in Paris and we still have to wear tights with our colorful spring skirts. Monet's gardens are so beautiful! There must have been every type of flower throughout and the colors were so vibrant! It was the perfect day trip to bring in the new month. Happy May to everyone!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is nothing more fabulous than two fashionistas laughing it up. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last weekend, I went to Madrid to visit my best friend. It's so lovely there; sun, flowers, and that amazing iberico jamon! I added a nice pop of color with the new Repetto orange flats and something cool with the clear glasses from a glasses maker called See in United States. My coat is Club Monaco. My friend is wearing a Claudie Pierlot jacket with a cute bow belt and Claudie Pierlot booties with the ever so classic Chanel 2.55.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Jason Wu created a great new contemporary collection called Miss Wu, inspired by my favorite era - the '60s! I love the shift dresses, full skirts, and great prints! I'm so happy for comeback of the '60s! The collection is sold exclusively at Nordstrom. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The trench coat never goes out of style. This one I'm wearing is a wool and cashmere blend from the original trenchmaker Burberry, great for cold weather. Now living in Paris, I need a coat from October to April and this one goes with almost anything. It's also great from day to night. This coat has prooven to be a great investment.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Place des Vosges is probably the prettiest square in Paris with wonderful little secrets hidden in ever corner. The architecture here is beautiful with pink bricks, and even in the cold, the grass is still very green. Here I am wearing a tweed grey chain-lined jacket, which I found at a boutique in the Marais, over a white shirtdress with a flouncy skirt. For accessories, I paired my Chanel classic quilted black bag and black patent Repetto flats, keeping it "ladylike." </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Karl Lagerfeld has done it again. Each season, each collection, he amazes me with his talent to take any style from any person, any part of the world and interpret into <i>Chanel. </i>Going from India last year for his Metier d'Arts show, to a completely different era in Edinburgh this year, Karl brought Scottish quilted skirts, plaid prints and what may be considered stuffy blouses to "Chanel life." </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This weekend, I went to the country in the Normandy region of France with some friends. It's really nice to get away from the city and escape. I could finally see real fall colors on the trees. I'm wearing a navy peacoat with gold hardware and a black trim that I bought at the Sandro stock. The boots are Tod's and the fabulous hat I found in the house of my friend. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This amazing dress I "rented" from a friend's sister. She made this great new concept called "Rentez-Vous" where girls come together at a party and bring a few things that they wouldn't mind letting someone else "rent" from them for 2 weeks. We all borrow our friends clothes, but you know when sometimes you dont get that cardigan you wear everyday back or something spills on one of your favorite shirts. With "Rentez-Vous," the renter puts a "cautionary" down on top of a small fee for dry cleaning, etc. And not only that, but girls can come together and socialize over shopping through each others clothes! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I saw this dress and loved it instantly! And I only paid 7 euros for it! The dark green is so great for the fall. But the flared shoulders and studded top part is what makes it a show-stopper. I will miss it!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Black and white as per usual, but it doesn't look like the typical "black and white" combination. Here white, or cream, on top and black on bottom, with a red pop from the bag. The blazer is cream linen I had tailored for me when I was in Shanghai. The ankle strap flats, which are actually jelly ones by Fendi with the signature Fendi buckle, are great with shorts or a short skirt. I love this outfit for ending summer. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Every look from Mulberry's spring collection was sublime to me. The colors- burnt orange, soft pinks, mint green, navy - were so beautiful on leather and silk. Oh and the accessories! Floral and studded bags and sandals and booties in florals as well! I fell in love with this collection immediately. It is so feminine! What more could a girl want? </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Chambray is not only for shirts, but skirts too. I like the combination of a denim jacket with a full chambray striped skirt, making a menswear trend feminine. For an edge, all black accessories, including a silver sparkle Miu Miu belt with black trim, and clear round sunglasses. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">New York designers reinvented spring like I haven't seen in a while with their spring 2013 ready to wear collections. I was especially taken with Francisco Costa's week closing. Known for his simple cuts and timeless elegance, Costa proved that less is more. Starting with a pin-up look to peplum, the collection had a very feminine sex appeal as well as elegance for a perfect harmony. The mix of fabrics gave quite a gaze, blending smoothly, like a white lining to black mesh. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was just browsing through one of my favorite blogger's Kamel Lahmadi's Style and the City's iPhone application and came upon these photos. Kamel always captures such natural and stylish women with their <i>own</i> true style. I love these of Joanna Hillman! She makes the striped tweed jacket and shorts set even better than it already is with a pair bright red polka dot Miu Miu platforms. Like she isn't naturally cool and chic already, Joanna puts together an unexpected combination for a very cool outfit. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As summer is coming to an end, I have to take advantage of the lighter summer colors. For a trip to the art museum, I wore a mint tweed dress with gold studs going down the middle of the top part, with two-toned flats. I love how Chanel can take tweed into so many different forms, it really inspires this outfit. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This summer, I took my first trip to Asia - to Shanghai to be exact. Before arriving, I had an image of the city as very fast and chaotic, like New York or Tokyo perhaps. But in fact, it has a very relaxed feeling. The fashion there is quite loud at times, with some of the craziest shoes I have ever seen. My favorite area was the French Concession, where there are many cafes and boutiques and you can walk along the tree lined streets. One thing I was very worried about before coming was the cuisine. But there was quite a range of great restaurants and cafes from Italian to Japanese, and one I probably ate at 20 times was the Wagas cafe with a range of sandwiches, salads, and small entrees. On top of that, massages were $15! Way to de-stress! I also had the chance to hike the Yellow Mountains (which is where James Cameron got inspiration for Avatar)! It is truly breathtaking. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">She became famous from her own MTV talk-show "It's On with Alexa Chung." But when the name <i>Alexa Chung</i> is said, her killer sense of style is what really comes to mind. Original and fresh, it is. Often sports Breton striped shirts, Chanel flats, cute jumpers, and not to forget the Mulberry bag named after her! The fashionista and socialite attends all the happening parties and events, like Louis Vuitton's Shanghai Express this past July. She was made muse for French contemporary brand Maje for this Fall's campaign, which can be seen in the magazines now, and now is said to launch her own clothing line very soon! I can only imagine how amazing the pieces will be. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Chanel's classic black jacket is really the ultimate essential for your wardrobe. The black tweed is so versatile; it can be worn from day to night, breakfast to dinner, whatever the occassion, and works for many styles. And as not many people can afford a Chanel jacket, it is nice that many different less expensive labels have made their own version, whether your price range is under $100 at Zara, or $250-600 from brands like Isabel Marant, Theory, or IRO, surely one can find their own black tweed jacket. Elle US did an editorial on the jacket in six ways. Read more to see Elle's way of wearing it. </span></div>
