Tina Leung at Chanel

Fashion blogger Tina Leung wore a beautiful pale turquoise and gold brocade suit to the Chanel show in Paris. Look for more pretty pastels like this in spring.

Fei Fei Sun at Chanel

Model Fei Fei Sun has always had a great sense of style and a wardrobe that seems to get more beautiful and sophisticated each season. Exiting the Chanel show, she wore an Andrew Gn white coat and carried a Chanel purse. Details including the elaborate runway glitter eyeshadow, after the jump.  (more…)

Photographer in Plaid and Corduroy, Outside Chanel

Like this photographer outside the Chanel show, I just want to swathe myself in plaid and corduroy at this time of year. Love the French Aigle boots, too.

Candice Lake at Chanel

I loved the combination of colors and textures on Aussie photographer and blogger Candice Lake at Chanel. The Hockley London fur is a nice flash of cheerful yellow on an overcast day, and the black velvet skirt is the perfect counterpart. Plus: red lipstick is the way to go with a bright coat.

Texture Play, Outside Chanel

One way to keep winter clothes from getting boring is to seek out interesting textures. Love how this guest combined a black and white graphic popcorn sweater with a quilted A-line skirt at the Chanel show.

Leather Sleeve Coat, Outside Timo Weiland

Sunday’s Timo Weiland show drew a lot of snappy creative dressers like this man in a blue coat with leather sleeves carrying a wooden Chanel bag. Scarf print pants like these have been a big trend outside the tents. You don’t have to spend a fortune to get them either, since similar styles are available at J. Crew.

Street Chic: All White Maternity Look

Not surprisingly, all white outfits have been a popular choice during the blisteringly hot summer of 2012. But I especially like how this woman on Madison Avenue interpreted all white for maternity with a long white cotton skirt and crochet tank top. The black and white Chanel bag is the icing on the cake.

Gray Peplum and Gingham Dress, Outside Chanel

Delfina Delettrez Fendi

One of the coolest things about the peplum on this gingham dress on Delfina Delettrez Fendi outside the Chanel show is that it appears to be completely detachable. Retro style, deconstructed! And I love the bag.

Lynn Yaeger at Chanel

Long before personal style bloggers and other street style darlings started mixing patterns, Lynn Yaeger was doing it in her own post-punk fashion. At the Chanel show, she wore plaid, checks and a fairisle print backpack with her signature layered tulle skirts.

Bryanboy at Chanel

Wouldn’t it be great if you could just design your own clothes when you can’t find exactly the right item in stores? That’s what fashion blogger Bryanboy has been doing, picking out fabric and patterns and having his clothes tailor made. The jacket and pants are his own design, the sweater is Sonia Rykiel.

Girl in a Floral Dress, Outside Chanel

Doina Ciobanu

The Chanel show in Paris always attracts all sorts of fashion fans, some there to take photos, some there to just take in the scene. This girl arrived in a vintage-looking floral dress with a belt artfully twisted around. The socks and boots are also great for fall.

Postscript: This is Doina Ciobanu from The Golden Diamonds – both taking photos and taking in the scene!

Elisa Nalin at Chanel

Stylist Elisa Nalin has really raised the bar for street style with her colorful, individualistic outfits. On this first cool day of Paris fashion week, she wore a deconstructed trench with arms made of pinstriped shirting to the Chanel show.

Nicholas Kirkwood Shoes on Stephanie LaCava

I received a press release about Miranda Kerr’s fabulous shoes at the Met Costume Gala this morning and recognized them from Paris fashion week, where they also appeared on the feet of style star Stephanie LaCava in the black version. Here they are, by Nicholas Kirkwood – totally lust-worthy.  Full shot of Ms. LaCava after the jump. (more…)

7 Days of Anna Dello Russo

Rarely do you see anyone have as much fun with fashion as Anna Dello Russo. Just when we thought she couldn’t top the last outrageously fashionable outfit during Paris fashion week, she would arrive in a completely different ensemble, having gone back to the hotel to change between shows. She favors designers from her native Italy and doesn’t shy from color or pattern. I can’t imagine how she packs the variety of headpieces, boots, suits, furs, jewels and dresses it takes for a single week, but I picture a couple of Louis Vuitton steamer trunks in her hotel room. Hats off to this over-the-top fashion plate who radiates chic sunshine wherever she goes. A seven-day roundup, after the jump.  (more…)

Natasha Poly and Sasha Pivovarova at Chanel

To clarify: Not all models off duty dress fabulously. The standard uniform for the past couple years has been biker jackets, skinny jeans and biker boots – sexy at first, until it got boring. This season several of the top girls are breaking the mold, wearing more layers and texture, mixing up skirts and pants and interesting coats. Natasha Poly and Sasha Pivovarova, just off the Chanel runway, exemplify the look that Lagerfeld showed for the Fall 2011 collection, as Style.com‘s Tim Blanks put it: “mixing the street with enough high fashion fantasy to make the result seem rich and strange.”
