Perfect Sport
Vogue China Feb 2010
Shot by:Patrick Demarchelier
Model:Karlie Kloss


karlie kloss is so beautiful. (A - i hope you appreciate this post.)

these shots of her are gorgeous and i like the casual athletic chic of the clothes too. the poses / set up may be simple but the photos are clean and really naturally appealing - plus did i mention that karlie's incredibly attractive? the more i look at these shots the more i like the blurry/textured gray/black/white neutral sort of watercolored looking background as well.

what did we LOVE: SONIA RYKIEL

chanel iman sonia rykiel summer 2009 runway

SONIA RYKIEL

"Celebrating her 40th anniversary in Paris yesterday, Sonia Rykiel put on the show to end all shows--it started with a lavish dinner, it ended with roses and music and feathers and top hats. Rykiel has always known how to entertain her audience without compromising the elegance of her brand. Her shows are often referred to as 'magical' and this season was no exception. The most striking outfits that came down the runway were exaggerations of Rykiel herself, either by way of her famously red hair or her French heritage. There were plenty of accessible pieces in between the costumery and each were styled to 1970's perfection. Rykiel's clothing is magic because it's charming and cool, pretty and sensual, and cast in the kind of soft light that makes everything look like an old movie. There's a reason she's celebrating her 40th anniversary in such a demanding and competitive industry and it's that her brand (in every aspect) makes women feel good. "

and the reason why i flipped through all of the sonia rykiel website and took so many screen captures....recently had a conversation with an old pretty good guy friend (he possibly reads this) and he still remembers that i really like this brand. so i wanted to reremember that. and it's been a good refreshing trip through looks, styles and fashion. yay sonia rykiel.
