'08

Paris Fashion Week (Haute Couture, Autumn/Winter Season 2009) is in full swing across the pond and everybody who’s anybody who needs something overpriced to wear is there. At the kick-off Claudia Schiffer was giving us Virginia Woolf as a secretary and Eva Mendes looks like a double scoop of Rainbow Sherbet with sprinkles

Patricia Arquette at the Elie Saab show looks amazing. SO amazing in fact, I’m not even gonna mention the fact that she and the woman to her left should have switched shoes. Her hair is gorgeous and I love it grown out. Her make-up looks effortless and that dress is completely charming and becoming. It looks like the star of Medium is living LARGE!
OH! Here are some pics from the catwalk




Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri arrived at the Armani show as a matchy-match Sadie Hip-Hop-Hawkins couple out to win first prize. Her outfit is a ruffle dickie away from being a Texas polygamist FLDS prairie dress and his outfit is so big on him you’d think he was wearing her old clothes circa The Nutty Professor era. Miss Jackson’s hair however, is flawless. LOVE the colour (I added the ‘u’ because they are in Paris), the bangs and the length… sigh, I do miss me the curls from her ‘IF’ video though…

Linda Carter was also at the Armani show, looking stunning. At 56 years old her skin is still flawless, her clothes are still bold AND she remembers pick one thing to star in your own personal fashion show and leave the rest to support it. Those beaded wedge sandals are the perfect blend of fashion, class and the understanding of both.

Here’s Liv Tyler at the Givenchy show apparently VERY excited about putting her new found Origami skills to work! “Wonder Twins power activate! Form of: Satin Bondage!” She is with her sister, Shirley, and Marie de Villepin. Here are a couple pics from the Givenchy runway:



This was what was sitting front row at the Chanel show. They are Her Royal Highness (I SWEAR!) Clotilde Courau, Canadian actress and 2003 Cannes Film Festival Best Actress award winner Marie-Josée Croze and Supermodel Audrey Marnay. (I know, who?) The point is, the only reason I’m putting this picture here is because on our left is Clotilde Courau, Princess of Venice and Piedmont. Now she may BE a princess, but when I saw this photo, I was all: “Who’s the lady reenacting Mommy Dearest doing an impression of the mother from Flowers in the Attic?” Yikes Princess: lighten up!

Is it my imagination, or does Claudia Schiffer seem to have bucked teeth the older she gets?

By the way, isn’t that Michelle Yeoh sitting next to Patricia Arquette?

Liv’s sister (to her right) is named Chelsea, not Shirley. Pretty girl.

JoGirl, yep, that’s Michelle Yeoh – I think she warrants a bit more credit than “the lady to Patricia Arquette’s left”.

Plum ombre, gorgeous, as is the grey. I think Patty in sitting next to the pretty eva mendes actually. The shiff isn’t again well, Christy Brinkley actually still looks the best and she’s at least a decade older than claudia.

Is there some law that runway models are not allowed to smile? I NEVER see them smiling. If I was that age and had a good body and a really great dress on (perhaps not so much the case with some of the fashions here), I would be smiling my ass off. Perhaps the lack of food and people pulling their hair into funny shapes makes them irritable….

Jinx; Christie Brinkley?? Did I miss something?
Patricia Arquette looks beautiful, so do the Tyler sisters.
Does anyone know the designer of Liv’s shoes??

Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this blog. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very difficult to get that “perfect balance” between superb usability and visual appeal. I must say you have done a excellent job with this. In addition, the blog loads super quick for me on Chrome. Superb Blog!
