pfw: my top 7 shows

Its time to round out the the fashion week frenzy with Paris Fashion Week. Fashion's heavy hitters came out at PFW and they certainly did not disappoint. Also, I should point out that I totally stopped trying to chose just two of my favorites from each collection, it was just impossible. Check out my top 7 shows from the City of Light! ,whit

At first these eyebrows really freaked me out. But then I was like, "I'm into this." If life in the future means life on another planet, good to know we're wearing Chanel.

2.ChloƩ

As a girl who loves fashion and lives in Seattle, I'm all about rad sweaters and beautiful coats. Fresh and so so chic, the effortlessly cool ChloĆ© girl is the girl I want to be! Or the one I want to steal from. 

3.Valentino

Hands down my favorite collection at PFW. I loved these boho/folk art dresses, and that Valenitno red scalloped gown!? Please.

You guys, these dresses! Right!? Red carpet time for real.

5. Carven

Designer Guillaume Henry took his inspiration from the Middle Ages, which made for quirky prints and a bold color palate. I thought it was so fun and so wearable!

6. Alexander McQueen

 Yes yes yes! Beautiful and optimistic, Sarah Burton's futuristic vision was nothing short of stunning. 

7. Yves Saint Laurent

This collection was dark but absolutely stunning. I loved the calla lily (flower typically found at funerals and cemeteries) prints, perhaps a note of symbolism for Stefano Pilati's final show.

  1. Love Alexander McQueen! Now how do we incorporate his dresses into everyday life? I say we just do it. It's work appropriate right?
