Street Style: Paris
In lieu of my upcoming move to the city of love, I've been trying to learn about everything and anything deemed french chic. Parisian women are known for their feminine, tailored looks that always incorporate the latest trends...Faux fur, layers, scarves, tights, bright lips and hot booties are a must. Here are some looks from Styleandthecity.com:
A Decade of Olsen Twins
Like it or not, this twosome revolutionized our era's sense of style. It's true. Whether it be oversize sunglasses, chunky jewelry, cowboy boots, layers, the hobo look or giant fur coats-the Olsen twins set the bar time and time again. Style.com came out with a great article about the America's obsession with these twins. Here are some photos depicting their style over the years:
Oversized sunglasses at NYU in 2004
Hollywood Glamour at NYC Gala in 2006
Disco hippie in 2006
Hobo chic in 2006
Crazy platforms in 2007
Leather leggings in 2008

Elle's Erin Kaplan
Elle's public relations director Erin Kaplan is fresh on the scene due to her new role in MTV's reality docu-drama The City. I love her style, it's chic and trendy yet very classic and tailored. Elle magazine published a Fashion Spotlight article on her and shot these pics:
Balmain Sale: Up To 85% Off

Brian Atwood Fall/Winter 2009
Some of my favorite pairs of shoes from designer Brian Atwood's most recent collection...
Posh & Faux Fur
Victoria Beckham and Marc Jacobs were "overheard" talking about developing a fur line, don't tell PETA! Here is the former Spice Girl in Paris, looking tres chic in a mini faux fur jacket along with a sheer black top, black leather leggings and a black Birkin bag.
Personally, I am an animal lover but don't understand the point of being anti fur if you are not anti leather and a vegetarian to go with it. There clearly has to be a standard about how to approach this controversial subject!
Olivia's Street Style
The girls at Chicintuition.com deconstructed a recent street look from Olivia Palermo, too cute!

Bright and colorful accessories are a must this coming spring, noted in Marie Claire's new spread this month. I love this shoot and I absolutely love this trend! Nothing says spring like bringing out some fierce colors. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these bags...
