My NYFW Diary – PORTRAITS

15 February 2014

Last but one post dedicated to New York Fashion Week, then we’ll get back to our habits!

Let’s start with a confession : during this crazy week spent running all over the city, I realized I like being on the other side of the camera more and more.

Don’t worry, I’m not going to stop publishing outfits, but I have to say I really enjoy breaking the routine.

So today, here is a series of portraits of more or less famous people spotted at the end of Tommy Hilfiger show and before Michael Kors and Hugo Boss runways.

These are … READ MORE

My NYFW Diary – DAY 3 : Hervé Léger + After Show at the Standard

13 February 2014

The Fashion Week is now over, and I actually feel relieved because I’m such a wreck by now. I caught a cold. Despite my desperate attempt to pile up many layers at the risk of sacrificing elegance, I couldn’t cope with the thermal shock between the tropical heat of Costa Rica (100°F in Corcovado) and New York coldness (12°F this morning!). I have a terrible flu, the kind that takes your brain and prevent you from thinking and speaking clearly.

Actually, I don’t mind if this Fashion Week lead me to catching a cold because it was really worth … READ MORE

My NYFW Diary – DAY 3 : Lincoln Center Streetstyle

11 February 2014

After the BCBGMAXAZRIA Runway and the Kate Spade and Coach presentations, let’s have a little break with a look, shall we?

I was invited to several shows on Saturday : Ruffian, Son Jung Wan and Hervé Léger. I had loved the first two in last September, but I overslept and wasn’t ready for the Ruffian show at 9 A.M ; then I missed the entry for Son Jung Wan by only a few minutes. I finally watched the show on the screens in the hall, and I actually thought I had a better view from there than from inside the … READ MORE

My NYFW Diary – DAY 2 : Kate Spade & Coach

10 February 2014

For this New York Fashion Week Day 2, no catwalks but only presentations.

I like presentations. Of course there isn’t the whole decorum of a runway, but you can take your time and you get to really see the collections, which is the actual purpose of all that, even though we tend to forget it…

Two presentations this Friday with two iconic New York brands and two completely different styles : KATE SPADE and COACH.

It’s in this kind of situation that I realize I have a stylistic schizophrenia. You won’t be surprised to know that I really loved … READ MORE

My NYFW Diary – DAY 1 : BCBGMAXAZRIA

8 February 2014

Back to Fashion marathon! The Fall Winter 2014 Fashion Week started two days ago at the Lincoln Center.

Let me put this straight : it took me a while to get in the mood. When I’m writing this, I’m keyed up again, so happy to share with you, day after day, my second Fashion Week in New York, NYFW for friends and family (and compulsive not anonymous “hashtaggers”).

Things started pretty well the night before with the event at Paule Ka, a brand I’m so fond of and that you heard about many times on this blog. The first Paule … READ MORE

A sparkling Valentine’s day

4 February 2014

A week ago, I had the chance to meet the dazzling Nathalie Colin, Artistic Director of Swarovski.

I never miss an opportunity to meet inspired and inspiring persons, and this kind of privilege is clearly one of the things I like the most about being a blogger! When I was asked to meet Nathalie Colin, I didn’t hesitate one second! We arranged an after work appointment a few blocks away from my place, near Kingside, at the lively and convivial Hotel Viceroy’s restaurant

It was no surprise to me to see that Nathalie Colin is like the jewels she … READ MORE
