DKNY: Resort 2014

Let's just take a moment and admire this splendid Resort 2014 collection by DKNY. I have to admit I immediatly thought this was 3.1 Philip Lim's lookbook because of the chic streetstyle influence clearly translating itself within the clothes. My jaw nearly dropped when I realized Donna Karan was the mastermind behind these amazing crochet maxi dresses and gold leather bomber jackets. These days, i've been obsessing over the constant evolution of streetwear. Clearly, sporty silhouettes are dominating in the industry and feminine touches such as lace are now a simple accent. To be quite honest, it's the perfect balance and I hope it won't change anytime soon. I just find myself wanting every piece of this collection because it would give me a reason to incorporate glam materials into my everyday life without even worrying a single bit of being overdressed. I mean, is there anything sexier than sweatpants paired with a transparent top and a loose blazer? No. 

The first look on the left is killer and makes me want to start wearing sweatpants everyday of my life. I assisted a fashion shoot a year ago and couldn't help but notice the stylist kept going back to the sweatpants and heels look in every board. I wasn't quite fond of the style back then but now you would need to be blind not to see the influence of this particular style. On the right, this mesh bomber inspired jacket is giving me chills by the coolness of it. Who wouldn't want to pair it with boyfriend jeans for an everyday look, it's just the type of piece you need in your closet... even if it's simply to admire it. 

It is clear to me that my love for DKNY has grown tremendously over the past years by the new era the company seems to have taken hold of. With that said, thank you Donna Karan for taking me back to the roots of New York fashion, i've fallen back in love.

It was like James Dean, for sure

It's impossible to ignore the return of the blue jeans trend that everyone seems to be adopting. It's the kind of trend that gets you quite excited since you now have an excuse to wear jeans every single day of your life. The mix of light denim and a transparent blouse is so chic in all it's simplicity, it just gives you a feeling you can't get enough of.

cliche beginnings

Cliche. What a fine word to describe the passion which occupies every single brain cell of mine twenty-four hours a day. I've been going back and forth in my mind trying to fight my sudden urge to start writing a fashion blog. The only thing holding me back was the fear that my blog would probably end up being, yet another, cliche fashion blog about a girl's love affair with fashion that seems to more particularly affect her finances and her social needs. However, here I am finally taking the plunge and dedicating some of my time to share my thoughts and inspirations with whom ever is interested about this passion of mine that keeps growing every single day of my life. Oh and... I do have a love affair with fashion, but most particularly with the industry itself that truly fascinates me. 

As a first post, I had no idea what to do at first but in the end, I decided to go back to the main essence that drove me to fashion: photography. A friend of mine accepted to model for me in order to accomplish this little creative session which would end of being my very first post. Yesterday's awful weather forced us to take indoor photographs which quickly turned out to be simple portraits. My inspiration originally came from my hours of browsing on Terry's diary (here) which is Terry Richardson's photography diary. However, my ideas quickly diverged into another world which I strangely seem to always come back to...

And here we go, I truly hope you enjoy.
