Inès de la Fressange

“Couture is things as they should be: farmyard chickens instead of battery hens; real tea instead of instant powder.”
I have this weird crush on Parisian women. French chis it is. This 51-year-old beauty was muse to both Thierry Mugler and Karl Lagerfeld. She thinks fashion is best served with wine over lunch insatead of as a sales pitch. It was her who once inspired what Elle magazine called a “French revolution” when she paired her Levi’s 501 jeans with a conservative Chanel jacket, a look that was copied for years afterward. And she wears flats like no other.

Som posadnutá Parížankami. Tým ich francúzskym chic-om. Táto 51ročná krásna žena bola múzou Muglera i Lagerfelda. Zastáva názor, že móda sa najlepšie servíruje s vínom počas obeda a nie ako sales pitch. Bola to práve ona, ktorá kedysi inšpirovala časopis Elle k tzv. "francúzskej revolúcii", keď si na seba obliekla Levi's džínsy s konzervatívnym kabatíkom od Chanelu, niečo, čo bolo kopírované ženami ešte roky po tom. Mimochodom, nikto nenosí balerínky takým štýlom, ako ona.

"Fashion is not frivolous. It is a part of being alive today." Mary Quant 
I got a bit bored with all the editorials for fall. I keep seeing the same clothes over and over again. So I was happy to discover this one. All Haute Couture. Chanel, Christian Dior, Elie Saab, Armani Privé and others in a classic setting. Great job, Vogue Germany!

Som trošku unudená pri pohľade na posledné editorály. Stále dookola vídam to isté oblečenie. A práve preto som sa potešila ako malá, keď som objavila tento. Celý odetý v Haute Couture. Chanel, Dior, Elie Saab, Armani Privé a ďalší. Skvelá práca Vogue Germany!

It's Rainy Day

"Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby." Langston Hughes 
...Walking in the rain at the end of summer and listening to the rhythm of the raindrops drumming on the umbrella over my head. I don't know anything more calming...

...Prechádzať sa v daždi na konci leta načúvajúc zvuku kvapiek bubnujúcich na môj dáždnik. Nepoznám azda nič upokojúcejšie...

Oh so green! Absolutely beautiful. The band folds over the foot from the front to the back and to the front again... like a scarfffff!

Och, tak zelenučké! Neskutočne krásne. Bandáž sa tiahne celou nôžkou spredu dozadu a  späť....Ovíja ju ako šatka.

Dare To Wear: Print Fatale

"Laws should be like clothes. They should be made to fit the people they serve." Clarence Darrow 
I like JW Anderson's print and I love the styling in this picture but the question is, would I wear it as a one piece? Would YOU wear it like this? 

Úžasná JW Anderson vzor a potlač. Aj tento stajling je dokonalý. Otázka, ktorá mi vŕta hlavou ale je, či by som si to takto spolu dala na seba i ja. V skutočnom živote. A čo vy?

Inside The Fairytale

"People think your success is just a matter of having a pretty face. But it's easy to be chewed up and spat out. You've got to stay ahead of the game to be able to stay in it."

I know! Guilty as charged. I have to admit. I was a bit disappointed after seeing Kate Moss as a bride. And please, try to understand. It's just that I'm in love with Kate we know from fashion editorials. But when I saw these pictures in Vogue yesterday, I was smitten. Now I see the real the magic. You can find more pictures on my Facebook page, so check it out. It's worth it! As everything from Mario Testino. Have a great weekend! PS: Don't forget to check out my GIVEAWAY!

Ja viem. Áno, priznávam sa, že na začiatku som nebola nadšená z toho, ako Kate vyzerala ako nevesta. Nech sa ospravedlní to, že pre mňa je Kate Moss odjakživa jedných úchvatným zjavom zo stránok módnych časopisov a tak som asi od nej čakala viac. Keď však časopis Vogue uverejnil tieto fotografie z jej veľkého dňa D, zmenila som názor. Konečne vidím to čarovno, v čom celá jej osobnosť a existencia tkvie. Viacej fotografií nájdete na mojej Facebookovej stránke. A verte, stojí to za to. Tak, ako všetko, čo odfotí Mario Testino. Krásny víkend!

PS: Už ste sa zapojili do GIVEAWAY?

Dior Dior....

"My weakness...is architecture. I think of my work as ephemeral architecture, dedicated to the beauty of the female body." 
I found these pictures while browsing through my favourite blogs and it didn't take me long to fall in love with them. One more month and we'll know who has replaced the irreplaceable Galliano and started writing a new chapter in the history of fashion. In the history of Christian Dior.

Keď som pri svojom obvyklom prezeraní obľúbených blogov objavila tieto fotografie, netrvalo dlho a zamilovala som sa do nich. Ešte mesiac a dozvieme sa, kto nahradí nenahraditeľného Galliana a začne tak písať nové dejiny módy. Nové dejiny značky Christian Dior.
