PFW Haute Couture Pt 1

Chanel   This collection at first reminded me very much of a very well known lady... I'm talking about miss Anna Winthour, if you have seen the documentary movie "The September Issue" you might know what I'm talking about. This jackets are very Winthour like. The collection is very old fashioned over all, no doubt its mean for a mature demographic, but it has some pieces in it that might appeal to a younger market.   A very delicate colletion with lots of attention to detail. Pretty much monotone colors with sightnings of sparkles and sequis of course. I would say its a redefiniton of a classic, a new take on a classic/vintage side of Chanel, this collection says Lagerfeld all over it!             Dior   Boho Chic...   I would say this collection is for that bohemian stylish woman of the modern days, lots of light fabrics, transparencies, all kind of faire like if you will, with additions of big c...

#asappreads Bookworm : A Midsummer Night's Dream - William Shakespeare

Even though it is a little challenging at first  to read Shakespeare, mostly because of the antique English vocabulary he used, it is very re guarding to do so.

#asappupdates PFW SS'16 Menswear Collections Pt 2

Lanvin   The Dark side of the force...   A very dark, moody collection, perfection non the less, the over sized shirts and skinny pants and shorts, along the addition of feminine elements such as low cut shirts, sheer, metallic's and the high waisted pants... it is just perfection!   The high waisted pants were the thing for me, they just took me back in time and yet they look so fresh and modern, but also give it a feminine touch that I just love to see in menswear collections, and it does not take away the masculinity of it, it is marvelous!   Top 5 from PFW, this is a collection a style guru, a modern man that's very secure and sure of himself and that is a trend setter             Kolor   Which was not very colorful at all, bets this season to the outdoorsy guy, what feels like a very "protective" wear collection, in a way, some of the outfits got me thinking about starwars and sta...
