Spring/Summer 2011 RTW - Rochas

I'm going to start off by saying, Because Paris does it better. I have been to eager for Pairs since well Fall/Winter Fashion Week! I have no doubt in my mind that one day I'll be planning my whole year around Paris Fashion Week. As for now I'm trying to plan my days around Paris, but it's impossible with my college work... Oh college how you keep me from doing EVERYTHING.

So I've viewed a lot of collections this season and to be honest I've been a bit bored. I haven't really seen anything that's exciting or so fashion forward for me. But then I finally sat down and viewed tons of collections from Paris and of course I was impressed with just about everything I viewed. Top of my list, Rochas.

Rochas featured a lot of retro silk florals. Usually I become very bored with viewing florals for Spring, but there was something different about this collection, maybe it's just my Paris fever but the florals looked more like crazy prints. Oh and as you know I can't go long without writing a post about sunglasses. The sunglasses were beyond gold. They literally sent shivers down my spine. Here are my favorite looks from the runway.


There is nothing negative that I can say about this collection. Other than I wish there were more beautiful garments to look at.

Okay, so who else has Paris fever? What is everyone excited for? I'm so looking forward to viewing Chanel. I'm jumping off of my seat just thinking about it. I'm going to be sad when Fashion Week is over.

Stay Stylish

Spring/Summer 2011 RTW - Marc Jacobs

Ever since I've loved fashion I've loved Marc Jacobs. He has a way with clothing that no other designer has. He could make two bottle caps and tooth floss become the next big thing since skinny jeans. And I love him dearly for that. But why do I feel so empty after watching his 2011 Spring/Summer collection? I just didn't feel Marc in the collection, I personally do not believe he was in his zone while designing, maybe he had something on his mind, I don't know, but I'd never think I would see the day when I was... disappointed with a Marc Jacobs collection.

His big theme of the evening was retro, ruffles, and prints, and he nailed it. He managed to pull off a combination color pallet of bright vivid colors and soft girlish colors. He even threw in a few metallics. I was beyond obsessed with metallics last season, but I'm not so sure about this season, though he manged to make it work with the rest of his collection. Here are my favorite looks from the runway.



They are quite stunning, but now I'm worried about the Louis Vuitton show come this Paris Fashion Week.

Stay stylish everyone and enjoy the last days of Fashion Week.
