MORNING INSPIRATION: GARANCE DORÉ AND COSTANZA PASCOLATO

And my morning inspiration is...... (drum rolls) Garance Doré of course. Garance Doré (and Jena Lyons) is the woman I most admire in fashion. She is the pioneer of street style blogging, now the pioneer of video blogging, and everything she does she does it beautifully (and she has fun while doing it). She is by far the coolest chick in town, I would definitely love to party with her.

This morning I want to share with you her interview with Costanza Pascolato for her "Pardon My French" series. Costanza Pascolato is a fashion consultant for Vogue Brazil (it can't get cooler than that). In the words of Natasha Inchley for Vogue.com: Costanza is a woman that has seen and worn it all. If you wish to learn more about Costanza take a look at her interview on Vogue.com

In this morning's video Costanza gives us a little lesson on fashion history worth watching and learning. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.


Y mi inspiración de esta mañana es.... (suenan tambores) Garance Doré por supuesto. Garance Doré (y Jena Lyons) es la mujer que más admiro en cuanto a moda. Es la pionera del blogging the moda callejera, ahora la pionera del video blogging y todo lo que hace lo hace divinamente (además se divierte mientras lo hace). Es sin duda alguna la mujer más cool. Definitivamente amaría irme de fiesta con ella. 

Esta mañana quiero compartir con ustedes una entrevista con Costanza Pascolato para su serie de "Pardon My French." Costanza Pascolato es consultora de moda para Vogue Brazil (no podría ser más cool que eso). En las palabras de Natasha Inchley para Vogue.com: Costanza es una mujer que lo visto y lo ha usado todo. Si desean aprender más sobre costanza denle un vistazo a su entrevista en Vogue.com 

En el video de esta mañana Costanza nos da una pequeña lección sobre historia de la moda que vale la pena ver y aprender. Espero lo disfruten tanto como yo lo he disfrutado.

FALL 2012 CAMPAIGNS: LOUIS VUITTON

Yesterday while having my daily dose of fashion news I found an article on NewYorkMagazine.com about this Fall's 2012 Campaigns, from Versace to Prada to Emporio Armani, some I loved and some I hated but the one that really left me in awe was Louis Vuitton. I had already seen a video on Garance Doré's series Pardon my French and thought it was an absolute display of pure genius, however it was their campaign photography by Steven Meisel that truly captivated me. Without a doubt a work of art.

Even though I'm not a big LV fanatic I do have to admit that Marc Jacobs vision for this seasons show was pure magic, transporting us to the beginning of the 20th Century back to the golden age of railroading (like Nicole Phelps for Style.com describes it), the young Coco Mademoiselle era. 

With all the futuristic collections presented for this Fall 2012, Louis Vuitton's time traveling was a breath of fresh air, simply put something beautiful to look at, even if you're not going to wear their clothes (or oversized hats) you have to be able to recognize when something has been impeccably executed. Two thumbs up for Louis Vuitton's Fall 2012 Campaign (and runway show).
