Colors in my mind...




It is cold and grey outside,I am dreaming of sun and beaches when suddenly around the corner the new windows from Bergdorf Goodman put me in a sunny mood.
The most important trends for me from the Spring/Summer collection were prints and colors and here it is : Colors,colors and more colors from the “Home” window to the one on Fifth Avenue,an explosion of color.











Then I went home and pulled my “Harlequin” set of dishes and had tea in bright colors pieces, then everything looked better.

Fashion at The Golden Globes


Awards season is upon us and we all become Fashion critics.
Yesterday night was the first of the big Awards nights,the Golden Globes and the movie and television industry did come out in force and did not disappointed us.
Here are some of my favorites and the worst of the crop.


My favorite : Tilda Swinton in Haider Ackermann.
Because she take chances and look like nobody else


Elle MacPherson in Zac Posen,a designer whom has never impressed me,but for once it got it right.


Sofia Vergara in Vera Wang,sexy and elegant !



Viola Davis in Emilio Pucci.The color of the dress compliment her skin color.
Just perfection.


Kate Beckinsale in Roberto Cavalli.


Emma Stone in Lanvin. One of my favorite designer.

And in the worst dressed...


Sharon Osbourne,who should have left the cover on her sofa...
And


Sarah Michelle Gellar because this dress is more suited for an older Lady for a Spring opening at the Opera then the Red Carpet.

"Noël, rêves d'évasion"



In collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld and the house of Chanel the Paris department store Printemps dedicated his Christmas window to the world of luxury.
Each one of the eleven windows is dedicated to a world city and a collection over the last 10 years,using symbols of each city and iconic elements of the Chanel legacy.
A trip through the world in witch the animated windows are populated by dolls of Karl himself and other mannequins all dressed up by the house.















If this windows are not very holiday and will have been more suited during the January couture week it’s still a wonderful homage to the “know how” of the French couture.

To all of you I wish a very Happy New Year.
