Paris Fashion Week AW 2012...Audrey

Audrey Leighton Rogers, from Frassy blog, Paris, March 2012.

On Monday I talked about the white suit and it all being a bit tricky to wear white + white in everyday life especially if you anything like me and prone to dripping/spilling things or wearing fake tan in the heat :) The way Audrey is wearing her white/off-white blazer is a great way to incorporate a white suit into your wardrobe: wear the entire suit on days when you are feeling particularly brave (the days when you are convinced a pigeon will not poop on your head* or you won't sit in something unidentifiable and icky) and wear separates (which work so well with this season's florals and prints) for all the other days!

Recreate Audrey's look (kind of):

Joseph Sir blazer (off-white), Calvin Klein Collection Jens jacket (white) or ASOS tailored blazer (white)

Add paisley print: Stella McCartney paisley print blouse, MinkPink Prince of Persia cape top, MinkPink Prince of Persia paisley shorts (great with a white blazer for when the summer heat kicks in) or Thakoon paisley printed shorts (my favourite and perfect with a white blazer)

A pair of slouchy trousers: 10 Crosby Derek Lam cinched waist carpenter pants or Alice + Olivia print Arthur pants

Rachel Comey Hitch suede perforated booties or ASOS Aqua suede ankle boots

Topshop Peter Pan collar or Karl faux leather collar

Karen Walker Helter Skelter sunglasses or ASOS oversized retro sunglasses

*This happened to me when I was lined up for coffee at a stall in Borough Market. Pigeon poop in your hair is never an attractive event.



Paris Fashion Week AW 2012...Josephine

Josephine Skriver, after Cacharel, Paris, March 2012.

Love the tangerine explosion (definitely more than a pop!) of colour of Josephine's jacket. Looks fab against her skinny black jeans and booties.

Recreate Josephine's Look (kind of):

Sandro Vicky blazer, Rebecca Minkoff Becky jacket or Rag & Bone Bailey jacket

Rag & Bone/ JEAN high rise skinny jeans

Rag & Bone Lovell platform booties

Paris Fashion Week AW 2012...Dorothea

Dorothea Barth Jorgensen, after Léonard, Paris, March 2012.

I find it a bit tricky to photograph all black street style but when there are different textures involved, like the leather detailing on Dorothea's coat and her furry scarf (+ beautiful make-up), it makes it so much easier.

Recreate Dorothea's Look (kind of):

DKNY funnel neck coat with leather trim or Smythe leather trimmed duster coat 

Paris Fashion Week AW 2012...Milagros and Magdalena

Milagros Schmoll and Magdalena Frackowiak, after Guy Laroche, Paris, February 2012.

Recreate Milagros' look (kind of):

Lennon-ish round sunglasses: Cheap Monday Link sunglasses (priced so you won't weep if you sit/lose/run over* them), Linda Farrow luxe metal and watersnake sunglasses (priced so you may wish to superglue them to your head and never let them out of your sight!) or Elizabeth and James Wooster sunglasses (love the mother of pearl version).

Marmen cross charm necklace, Ben Amun tassled twisted necklace, Tom Binns Passive Attack multi- strand necklace (complete with neon safety pins!) or ASOS multi-cross necklace

Recreate Magdalena's look (kind of):

Karen Walker Number Six sunglasses or Miu Miu round-frame sunglasses

*it happened to a friend in a hire car in Italy!
