“The hurricane which destroyed his house allowed Marc Jacobs to find a new source of inspiration. He symbolizes through his collection the renaissance. Under a light at first dark, almost apocalyptic, the Marc Jacobs woman who seems to be a survivor, wanders, wearing only a pajamas, a coat or a panties and clutching her personal effects. Then comes the time of resurrection, the light becomes more intense, hotter, the silhouette is more complete, glitter, lamé, fur are mixed on evening dresses, coats and boleros. The materials are divine and ostentatious but the style is uncluttered, only few pieces but all comfortable. Boa made from luxurious real mink fur, reworked to achieve the look of an actual pelt, with button eye detailing.” This fox boa that first time came out on Marc Jacobs runway, shocked everyone. No wonder why- it looked real good from far, and everybody found sweet and cute. But when I found this on Colette today, all my view destroyed on that item. This looks like if MJ stole this muppet from a child! No way, don’t buy it. Disapointed!

Acne in London
The new Acne Studios boutique in London on Pelham Street 93 have just opened! It’s the newest store of this Swedish label that has it’s own, unique touch- concrete, marble and pink velvet sofas! The store is already supplied with Acne’s Pre-Fall collection that I simply love! Till now I remember the warm atmosphere of New York SoHo Acne boutique, with great customer care and amazing wardrobes… The new hot spot of fashion is for sure the Pelham Street 93.!
The Flower Men
One of the coolest trend from the menswear Fashion Week SS14, is for sure the floral print. It was everywhere! It was all about the variety- from sun flowers to orchids. The king of that print was definitely Dries Van Noten. His collection was very street style, comfortable and simply chic. And florals were like everywhere! On the tank tops to the sweat pants.
The exotic one was 3.1. Philip Lim with the hummingbirds and hibiscus that decorated the tops. Miuccia Prada offered knitwear with Vietnamese flowers and Raf Simons took to a scientist laboratory, where his fantastic t-shirts had some notes written around the botanical specie… I think that was the most floral season for a really long time at men’s runway, and I think that’s totally right?
Balenciaga Cut-Out Boots
The Balenciaga cut out leather boots have just arrived! Lena already matched them up with her Falke pink socks, and the effect looks very rebel and grunge! These shoes are heaven. Although very hard because of the leather and metal elements, they are never out of fashion (even if Alexander Wang is at Balenciaga) and are classical models. So that’s really good then! And they make so much to think about… Plus, then picture under may give you clues where I am going to in two weeks… Just one thing still is quarrelled about. Are these Summer or Winter shoes? 😄❤
