The beautiful Denni from Mexico (who now lives in Paris) - you might have seen her in the American Apparel adverts wearing the striped leotard - who I photographed almost every day in Paris. These are just two of her looks, I shall share more later.
I am loving Erin Wasson's jewellery range, Low Luv. Denni's long crucifix reminded me of this one from Low Luv. Plus did anyone see the incredible shoot/s Erin did for the March issue of French Elle? Just page after page of Erin gorgeousness!
The divine Ms Charlotte Dellal positively purrrrrrrrrrrring in her big-cat print coat. Oh and there is the small matter of her insanely gorgeous heels which are, of course, from her own brand: Charlotte Olympia. Do you see her earrings? They are tiny little spider webs just like she has on the bottom of all her shoes. Genius!
Embarrassing moment: When I spied her coming out of the show I got so (overly) excited that I squealed out "Oooooo Charlotte, you make THE BEST SHOES!!" in a really loud voice. Um, which given that we were in Paris, and given that I have a very strong Australian accent, was probably very noticeable. Oh well. I really do think she makes amazing shoes :)
At Matthew Williamson. In London. A/W 2010
Booties from Chanel, Scarf "straight from the desert!". That was her answer when I asked her about her scarf (I think she said she had just got back from Morocco). I love clothing, jewellery, scarves with a story behind them.....it makes things that much more special.
Despite the fact that I am desperate for sunny weather conditions for something I am shooting on Thursday, I am secretly a little bit happy that it is still so cold: I have SO many more winter photos to post! In a few more weeks it will seem faintly ridiculous to be posting photos of winter coats. I must, MUST get them all up ASAP. 
The fab Chloe Kerman, Fashion Editor at Tank magazine. 
By popular demand (that would be you @Alice and @Lindsey!), here are some more photos of the gorgeous Sama and Haya. The photos below are just bigger versions from the collage and the one above I took the day before the Karl Lagerfeld show: Sama and Haya off-duty + the crowd lined up for Angelina :)
I am totally not to blame if this comes over all girl crush-ish and stalker-ish ;)
Perfection.
I'm not sure what is more adorable: what they are wearing, their hair or their "I must know what shade it is" lipstick. The perfect shade of pink.
p.s. Finally I have taught myself to do a collage. It has been on my to-do list for, oh, about a year now and tonight I worked it out. Kind of. It looks really small but you can click on the photo and it goes large. Argh. Shall reply to all your lovely comments/questions from the last couple of days tomorrow morning. I am so tired I think my brain has already gone to bed :)
How beautiful is Clementine* and her dreamy, messy side plait (very Alexander Wang SS 2010)? Her leather skirt, wedge boots and super loooong knotted belt are all gorgeous but that side plait is just so pretty. 
*I can't say Clementine's name without thinking of basketfuls of beautiful, ripe clementines sitting in the sun (weird, I admit!)
Girls who wear glasses......
are just awesome! 
The super lovely Violaine Bernard, PR director for Feathers boutique in London. I love Violaine's French chic style (and her cute haircut!) plus, um, those Opening Ceremony clog-boots are just awesome! Perfect for embracing the clog trend if you quite like the look of clogs but don't feel quite brave enough to wear the high-heeled version.....which can be quite a struggle to keep on the foot without serious toe scrinching especially when worn with tights! 
My dislike of cluttered backgrounds in my photos is well documented but I adore Lou Doillon and wanted to show you the photo anyway. She is so cool (and has that perfect messy hair that I have never quite achieved despite copious amounts of product, curlers and "brushing out")! I snapped this as she was leaving the Christian Dior show.
I like the feelings that these photos convey: okay, so most probably they just convey "Damn skippy it is so cold and windy I think I may pass out..... perhaps I should have worn tights, a dozen blankets and a pair of Uggs.....and a hot water bottle. Mmmmm I really wish this photographer would just leave me alone so I can go inside the nice, comfy, warm tent Mr Lagerfeld has prepared"....but I guess you can see how cold it was and how brave she was to wear bare legs for Karl's 10am show.
Not sure who she is but I think she might be friends with Leigh Lezark...
How gorgeous is this model? I am not sure of her name but I took this after the Commuun show. Probably you guys will know who she is.
I think she was blowing a kiss to someone here!
Ouf! Those French girls and their endless legs*! Perfect with her little leather shorts, patterned tights and heels. And do you see her necklace? (okay, so you probably don't because I haven't zoomed in enough but anyhow...) It is made of lots of vintage watch faces all strung on a chain! Quirky and so cute: now you know exactly what to do with all those broken/old watches you have lying in your junk drawer.
*Hmm wish I had been blessed with a bit more length in the leg department. Don't get me wrong, I am perfectly happy with the functionality of my legs but it would have been nice not to have to take up every single pair of jeans or trousers I buy......even the ones labelled (gasp) short! 
Just another reason to invest in a hat and a denim shirt :)
Another one of my favourite girls to photograph (and chat to): Alix aka The Cherry Blossom Girl. Adore Alix, her style and her gorgeous blog....and I know a lot of you guys do as well :)
Alix was wearing the cutest floral Topshop romper, vintage boots, Miu Miu bag and Auntie Rosa faded denim jacket.
p.s. took these photos outside the Cacharel show. I have more photos of Alix to come in the next couple of weeks :)
The super cute Katie Major who is studying fashion journalism at Solent University in Southampton. Katie was in Paris as part of her degree but snuck away (sshhhhhhh!) from the 'proposed schedule' with her friends to watch the crowds before the Christian Dior show.
After the Christian Dior show. 
Jacquelyn Jablonski after the Celine show with her brand new (giant) Celine handbag.
p.s. Brilliant marketing from designers who gift items to the models to wear after the show: they know the models are going to get photographed with their goodies.....and look good doing it!
Another one of the girls I met during my time in Paris who inspired me. I went to a meeting during the week and left my trusty notebook there so I can't tell you her name until I go back to collect it but fingers crossed she will email me :) Anyway, she is a student studying at one of the top fashion colleges in Paris and I met her when she was taking a break in the Tuileries (when I took these photos). In (another) odd twist, I was catching the Metro a couple of days later and we bumped into each other again!
Her jacket is Zara and her little white jazz shoes are Surface to Air (but she said they hurt a bit so make sure you do a few laps of the shoe department before buying. No one will think you are weird, honest!) 
The fab Miss V.
p.s. I also have some photos of the equally fab Hanneli Mustaparta wearing a head-piece from Vika's collection which I will post next week as well. 
And another fabulous pantsuit*, this time worn by the very beautiful Miroslava Duma. I thought Miroslava was with Harper's Bazaar Russia but I have since read that she now contributes to a number of other Russian magazines. Perhaps you guys can correct me if I have got it muddled.
If you don't want to (or can't!) wear the nude or khaki colours this season, Miroslava's bright suit should provide inspiration. Miroslava is in her mid-twenties but this pantsuit would work beautifully on someone 3 times her age. Gorgeous.
