And so to Paris...
This city has proven to be the home of my favourite group of shows this season, which surprises me as I'm normally a London & New York type of girl. As I type I'm finding it hard to narrow down my selection of images to post. There was gothic glamour, eclectic prints, sculpted leather, sharp tailoring, amazing textural combinations, clever cutting. The list could go on, but edit I must...
So here they are, my favourite looks from Paris. All images courtesy of style.com.

There's something very stylish about monochrome. A person who chooses to wear just classic black & white, to me, oozes confidence in their ability to make such a strong statement.
Whilst following the recent designer collections, in particular the Paris shows, I was impressed by the array of monochrome looks sashaying down the catwalks. Rather than relying on a plethora of gimmicks & frippery, several of the designers showed outfits of unadulterated purity.

Paris...
It's been a tumultuous few days in the world of fashion with the revelations about John Galliano, but the fashion train rolls on...
Although the fash pack are now firmly into Paris fashion week, this post will focus on Milan.
Admittedly it's not usually my city of choice when it comes to the shows. I'm not a great lover of Cavalli, Versace etc. Too flamboyant for me. However this season I found myself more impressed than usual with the offering.
