Paris Fashion Week SS 2016....Sam

British model Sam Rollinson, after Chanel, Paris, October 2015.

Sam's vintage/antique brooch caught my eye.....a really cool way to wear a brooch that perhaps you have inherited from a relative or purchased at vintage shop but aren't quite sure when or how to wear it. Pin it to a suede (although mind the pin marks - not sure how you avoid that!) or denim jacket and wear with a stripey tee. 

Recreate Sam's look (kind of):

Paris Fashion Week SS 2014....Elisa

Stylist Elisa Nalin, before Carven, Paris, September 2013.

Three little things about Elisa's outfit:

1. The colours are beautiful (as always)
2. Love the wee gold and coral hedgehog? brooch. If you have purchased (or inherited) a beautiful brooch but aren't quite sure how to wear it, try it on a collar like Elisa is wearing hers.
3.Those shoes......I am quite sure if Elisa clicked her heels three times she would be transported somewhere rather fabulous :)

Recreate Elisa's look (kind of):

Colour-block sweater: Gap colorblock stripe sweater,  Duffy color-block sweater, Dsquared2 colorblock sweater, Baum Und Pferdgarten color block knitted sweater, Vionnet color-block sweater or Fendi color-block sweater

Lovers + Friends Monica Rose Charlie leather skirt, Sally LaPointe A line leather skirt, Sonia by Sonia Rykiel red leather skirt or Love Leather Legs Legs Legs leather skirt

Dolce & Gabbana mosiac heel pumps

Paris Fashion Week SS 2013....Miroslava

Miroslava Duma, after Louis Vuitton, Paris, October 2012.

LOVE this coat on Miroslava: such a gorgeous colour, so wintery (with the fur collar detailing), sophisticated and grown-up.

Recreate Miroslava's look (kind of):

Reiss Lillyanne warm blush coat (this was the closest in colour I could find to Miroslava's coat)

Add a fur collar to an existing coat: Marni shearling collar, Kelly Wearstler fur collar, Topshop faux fur collar or Lanvin fur tie collar

Nicholas Carrie Snake d'Orsay pumps, 3.1 Phillip Lim Ava leather pumps, Nicholas Amore cap toe pumps, or Christian Louboutin Pigalle spike pumps

Paris Fashion Week SS 2013....Miroslava

Miroslava Duma, after Valentino, Paris, October 2012.

The antithesis of the oversized, man/boy-coat trend, Miroslava's elegant, tailored fur-trimmed coat is wonderfully ladylike and classic.

Recreate Miroslava's look (kind of):

Victor &Rolf twill coat with fur collar, Michael Michael Kors shearling-trimmed coat, Versace coat, Carven fleece collared coat or Oasis fur cape collar coat

If you just like the colour of Miroslava's coat, this Tibi coat is very similar.

Brooch: Oscar de la Renta insect brooch
