^^^ will be trying to copy both these outfits

lanvin, i kind of like this

i thought balenciaga was awesome

it seems like the one sort of trendy thing now i really like is the light blue cuffed jeans like the street style post above, luckily, i have a pair of $40 levis that are perfect

hah, that lanvin is kind of too much, it looks like it would be fun to wear.

miu miu silk dress w shredded fabric. if i had to go to a gala at like kennedy center i would totally wear this, it would be hilarious

lanvin. i dig the necklace

i have gotten to the point that i notice more than the clothes the fact that the models look sick, and sad. way too skinny. it's really depressing. and then thefashionspot.com threads where i find these pix have closeups of the accessories which are mostly their feet jammed into whatever 5" platform heels are in that show. i like a good pair of heels but this is grotesque frankly.

great (french) coverage of the paris week on: http://blogs.lexpress.fr/cafe-mode/index.php

oh the cafe mode is great! also garance doré

^^^ will be trying to copy both these outfits

ah, the girl on the left is vanessa coyle. sr fahion editor at harpers bazaar UK. i always get good photos of her, but the dude before her. omg he's awesome/ i got his photo outside the gareth pugh show in paris:

balmain, i dont really understand how its so outrageously expensive.. and the only people i've seen pull off balmain are the paris vogue girls... no one else

goodness gracious

that whole thing isnt nearly as awful as it should be but it's too bad he's hiding his really good looking face behind those tardo glasses

he pulls off the androgyny way better in the pic you posted. the one of him in heels is just... ugh

those margiela glasses are awesome... though $600 used in a 2nd-hand store in tokyo, ugh.

im not sure exactly what this dude does, i think maybe works for l'officiel holland if there's such a thing.. but he and his friend were at every single "cool" show in paris hanging around and getting photographed by the growing horde of street-style photographers
