Paris Fashion Week, Spring 2010: Balenciaga
Paris Fashion Week continued yesterday with some of the cities biggest design names. Balenciaga, Isabel Marant and Balmain took their designs to catwalk showcasing what we'll be wearing next Spring. Nicolas Ghesquière layered up at Balenciaga with strung together waistcoats and hooded sleeveless jackets.
Trend Alert: Drawstring Bags
There are two rules I abide by when shopping: function and fashion. That's why I'm so smitten with the resurgence of drawstring bags. This sporty, luxe attitude goes perfectly with today's casual cool style and even translates well when paired with tailored ensembles.
Which InStyle Summer Soiree Attendee Is Most Fab?
InStyle magazine sure knows how to throw a party. This week at its Summer Soiree party in LA, celebs toasted the night wearing their best cocktail gear. Here are my favorite looks: Ashlee Simpson in a champagne-colored Jill Stuart playsuit; Jordana Brewster in gold Reem Acra; Jessica Stroup in a chic LBD; Katie Cassidy in Balenciaga; and Eliza Dushku in sexy Herve Leger.
Fall Glimpse: Drape Escape
Draping is a classic fashion technique — we can learn this from studying Madame Grès and the Romans. This classic has been rejiggered, reworked, revitalized for Fall. From dramatic Givenchy draping (left) to delicate Wu draping, I'm going to have to plan on a drape escape come cozy time.
Fall Glimpse: Gray Day
Fall is nearing and my wallet is taking a momentary nap. Are you ready to review my favorite Fall trends? These are the clothes I am most excited for.
Fab Ad: Jennifer Connelly for Balenciaga
Jennifer Connelly has returned as the face of Balenciaga this Autumn after a brief hiatus. She last appeared in the campaign in Spring 2008 in an impressive heeled gladiator boots. I am happy to see her return to Balenciaga, but can't help but feel that this campaign is a bit awkward.
Fab Ad: Balenciaga, Fall '09 Starring Jennifer Connelly
Jennifer Connelly is back as the Balenciaga muse. For Spring '08 she was standing proud, she sat out two seasons, and for Fall she's sprawled out on a couch. Many are commenting that her pose this time around is awkward and too sexy for the house, but I think her pose last time was equally stiff and awkward.
Bag to Have: Balenciaga Arena
High School Musical star Ashley Tisdale arrived in to JFK yesterday clutching her cute puppy Maui. Whilst I have a soft spot for this adorable pet, it was her other arm candy that I'm left lusting after. She was carrying the latest Balenciaga accessory – the Arena ($1,745/about £1060), which is the newest twist on the classic handbag style.
Cruise '10 Trend: Clean, Lean Trousers
With Cruise '10 in full effect, let's stop and evaluate the latest. Frocks and skirts dominated, but what really caught my eye were clean, lean trousers — quite the opposite of crazy harem pants. Instead, trousers ranged from cropped and loose-fitting to tight and body-con.
Fab Finding Follow-Up: Father's Day Lobster Brunch
My dad's the best. He's always there for me, gives me sound advice, and is cool to hang out with. Last Sunday was Father's Day so it was all about him.
