Happy Birthday Marc Jacobs!

Today is the birthday of two of my favorite fashion people in  the  whole world: my beloved Marc Jacobs and stylish Anna Dello Russo :) But this time I’m focusing the post just in Marc… Don’t take me wrong its not that I don’t adore Anna but right now Mr. Jacobs is such an inspiring person to me, that is why I want to honor him.

He is such a special designer to me, is not only because of his collections is also about how much he has grown in the past years as human being, let me explain you the reasons why I admire him so much…..

First of all;  the amazing  physical transformation he had and I love how he looks nowadays (Marc is such a hottie!). He is like my thinspiration! hahahaha

Second;  obviously it  has to be his creations: from the beautiful clothes and accessories Marc does for his own label to the ultra feminine and sophisticated collections for Louis Vuitton and hey, he has a bookstore too, “BookMarc”  pretty cool huh? Does he ever sleeps? seems like he’s constantly working.

Third; He seems like such a  chill and cool person, like you can have lots of fun with him. I think his tattoos show this, they’re full of fun from sponge bob to M&M’s, to himself drawn like a character from “The Simpsons”. Incredible sense of humor right? And the fact he wears skirts ufff and don’t care about what other people may think is WOW!

And the last but not least; we both share love for Brazil!! hahaha

and I could say a million things about him, but this gotta stop! LOL anyways

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR Mr. Jacobs!!!!! :)

 

Love, Emma<3

Victorious!

Victoria Beckham appears in May’s cover of Haper’s Baazar UK looking gorgeous! we were immediately enchanted by the stunning photos where Posh poses in summer outfits.

She looks so elegant, feminine and refine…. We love everything about the editorial: the garments, the hair, the makeup. She is perfect.

Victoria represents such a strong woman and has become one of our favorite fashion’s icon, not just for her incredible style, she’s now an important figure in fashion design and we consider her collections so well made, perfectionist and detail-cared.

Ps. Victoria Beckham photos by Camilla Akrans and styled by Sissy Vian.

ed note: Victoria Beckham  is the utimate powerful woman in this time and we both find her very inspiring, although many didn’t find credibility in her designs she proved them wrong and continue with her work, besides what a better sweet revenge than winning “Designer of the year” at the annual British Fashion Awards ;) Victoria you are doing it right!

Love Emma ☮& Geraldine

                                                                                                                                                                                                          

Francisco Lachowski & Jessiann Gravel by Justin Wu

When Justin Wu makes a video you instantly know the result is going to be awesome! You are sure you’re gonna see top & gorgeous models singing and dancing a sticky song in backstage or on the streets of some capital of the world.

Well this time monsieur Wu doesn’t let us down and present a beautifully romantic video starring Francisco Lachowski and his girlfriend Jessiann Gravel in a love chasing in Paris (ohhh the city of love).

The soundtrack is perfect and my favorite moment is when Francisco sings “Je t’adore” and then jumps hahahaha :)

Lovely isn’t it?

France, Je t’aime!!

Two style guides for hommes sophistiqués (sorry couldn’t resist to write it in French)  :)

Jon Kortajarena and Nicolas Ripoll appear in the April issue of GQ France…. Oh là là!

“La legende de Jimmy”

This photoshoot is all about reinventing the legendary style of James Dean and Jon did it perfectly. He has Dean’s silhouette and hair and reinterprets that mysterious/sexy look that keep us dreaming about. Plus those big glasses fit him so well, is the right combination between that guy who is intelligent, hot, has a bad-boy kind of attitude but at the same time is so cute and sweet…..

I love this picture! Is totally James Dean style.

                                   

  “Le blazer a la Française en 10 leçons”

In the other hand this editorial is totally dedicated for you my beloved male readers because if you love blazers but only have one idea in your mind about how to wear them, don’t worry! GQ gives you 10 different blazer looks. They are really easy, stylish and masculine outfits you can use for every-day or for a special occasion.

Don’t be afraid to use layers with your blazer, wear it with sweatshirts, vests, light cardigans or sweaters. Please don’t marry with the idea that blazers are just for formal looks, try to match them with distressed/wear out jeans and a pair of sneakers.

The thing is to have fun mixing colors, textures and patterns, let yourself go crazy about it and I promise the result is gonna be genius and you’re going to establish your own style :) Let the inspiration starts:

This is my favorite outfit: take the risk to mix a pattern blazer with a printed shirt and jeans in pop colors.

Neon vs Pastel

The other day I was having a chat with a friend and she told me how  she’s  still obsessed with neon colors -that was  the moment when all I could think about was this…

…the image of Hanne Gaby Odiele in a complete mint outfit- and I was like ok, stop for a minute, I really love neon colors but this season and the next one is all about pastels, don’t you feel? And  clearly I am  not only  the only one with this thought , designers are making a trend out of these colors.

So I picked out my favorite pastel looks from the runways for this Spring/Summer. Just take a look and tell me if I can convince you :)

3.1 Phillip Lim

Alexander McQueen

Amaya Arzuaga

Boy and girl by Band of outsiders

Chanel:  had too many cute looks, it was really hard to choose one.

Christopher Kane

Diesel Black Gold: Love how the pastel pink blazer matched  the silver pants.

Ermano Scervino

T by Alexander Wang

Victoria by Victoria Beckham

Everything’s so beautiful, feminine and romantic just by adding pastel colors, like if nothing can go wrong hahaha

Now dear neon lovers, are you gonna try? let me say the clothes are just the beginning, you can also try pastel colors on your nails or shoes…just saying.

Sneakers

I love these statement sneakers! They look so powerful and eye-catching. They’re the perfect accessories for a basic outfit and also are the special touch of a determined style. So this are just a few of my favorites for men. Don’t are they adorable?
