Yesterday morning, I had my breakfast at Jade’s house. We were talking about how military is now trendy, how to recycle stuff, shop second-hand, and how to wear it all. We got out all of Jade’s parkas. Marie came over and we dressed her up.
During my time in LA, I went to visit Jessica and brought you back a few photos. Can you believe they call this winter in California?…
To see more of her work, go check Jessica’s website, here. Bisou !

Oh man. I was doing a shoot yesterday* for a summer style story**, and right there in the middle of a stall of gargantuan shoes, I saw them.
Last October, a few hours after the Chanel show, I ran into Dree Hemingway on the Rue St. Honoré. She still had one of the tattoos drawn on the models in the show.
To finish out the week, here’s a video I made with Chris of the Givenchy Couture show. I send you all big hugs!

I hate having my picture taken. Especially posed shots for magazines where we have to explain in a picture what I do with my life. Like show that I take pictures, do illustrations, that I like style and joking around. And of course always, I have to have a computer in hand.
It’s cool to observe the coming-and-going of style inspiration. Today, I braided my hair on the side without even thinking about, just because why not?
When I ran into Giorgia with the exact same hair-style, I really thought something was up.
There’s something really interesting going on in style in Florence. It’s a place called Luisa. It’s is a multi-designer boutique that’s been on the Via Roma for two generations. When you get inside, you find a very distilled selection featuring edgy designers and couture pieces to fall for. It’s not exactly what you’d expect from the Florentine cliental, really chic but not exactly ready-to-wear like à la Mark Fast or anything. So… What’s the secret?
Luisa’s secret is it’s online store, Luisa Via Roma. The site is a good example of internet success. It’s known by fashionistas the world over. Voilà. I’m not going to write you a thesis, but I think it’s cool that the internet brings style to life outside of the world capitals.
So quick. There I am, blissing out on Manish Arora’s awesomely flashy collection when I see a tall thin girl, wearing blood-red patterned tights and boots that exist somewhere between thigh-high land and Wonderland, and I think to myself that her insane view on style reminds of me something.
And then suddenly I recognize her: It’s the same girl I saw on that London train wearing sex-shop garb.
Et voilà! Ania is the assistant buyer for Luisa Via Roma, Silvano. She has the coolest style, body conscious and fun, always with a detail that’s “a little too much.” A little too bright, patterned, or clashy. I love that she’ll put it together with some chic sportswear.
You know what though, she’s a little more toned down in these photos than usual. But she told me we’re in for a treat during fashion week… And that’s she definitely going to let loose! And are you going to have your dog with you as well? Cool!

I have been meaning to create an English version of my About page for ages. First because one of the things I like most in life is talking about myself, I would do it even in Aramaic if I could, and second because things are easier when we are introduced.
But my English is not as [...]
