Maje

Mango pre - fall

Yes I know its still summer, and there is something very annoying with the fact that I seem to want to share with you next A/W collections. However, with the weather being so crap I thought I might as well. I am also slowly starting to think about suitable outfit to wear to the Commission as I start my stage (internship) there as of October thus I am looking at practical outfit that can be taken from day to night and that look smart and not too stuffy. Also I really don't want to wear a suit every day, if ever.  What do you guys wear to work?

I am particularly liking the wide leg pants, the dark 'bordeaux' reds, the bare legs with either boots and dresses, the silk shirts with bows, the cropped suit trousers, the layers and a few sequins here and there (obviously not for work). More so I am loving the Balmain prints this year, particularly on the skirt and the jackets (not that the collection is any more affordable than the previous years). Actually as I am writing this post the sun seems to be making an appearance so I might just be wearing something meant for summer today.

PARIS HAUTE COUTURE A/W 2011 - Jean Paul Gaultier

 

I met with Emilie yesterday in Paris and managed to get a sneak peak at Jean Paul Gaultier's Haute couture collection for autumn/winter 2011. I have to say the girls walked way to quickly which made it hard to capture them but looking at the pictures last night I had to admit that the dresses looked stunning and the girls (and boys) were actually breath taking. It was a true 'compte de fée' of 'enfants terribles' at the heart of Paris. I thought I would share with you some of the shots I managed to capture even thought they are not amazing and don't do JPG's work and creation any justice. However, I still liked some of them as they are messy, very bright and taken in the middle of Paris which actually kind of works. All in all, it was a fun afternoon that started of with some peaceful reading in a parc nearby and ended up in a whole lot of street-style, people watching, and a fair amount of posing. I am now back in Brussels for a couple of days, then of to the UK then back to Paris next week.

My outfit that day was nothing exceptional but my trousers did get a lot of attention, outfit post to come tomorrow :)
