Angelina Jolie: A Walking Ad for 'World War Z'?

“All women do have a different sense of sexuality, or sense of fun, or sense of like what's sexy or cool or tough.” – Angelina Jolie. Jolie, one of the worlds’ most talented actresses; married to one of the world’s most iconic actors, Brad Pitt; and of course mother of 6 who will hopefully follow in their mother and father’s footsteps. 

Over the past few weeks, Angelina Jolie has been in basically ALL major tabloids over her recent double mastectomy to help prevent the high risk of her chances of getting breast cancer. But as her husband, Mr Pitt circles the globe to help promote his highly anticipated blockbuster, and soon-to-be smack-hit ‘World War Z’ – on occasion with Jolie as his accessory. But since Angelina’s recent news, is the spotlight truly on her? But I’m not here to debate who is the main advertiser - I’m here to discuss Jolie’s style throughout the red carpet appearances. 

Jolie made her first appearance in London, and may I add, “va-va-voom”.  As there are many words to best describe her phenomenal physique  only one word sums it up to a tee, which can only be “flawless”. Of course the creation of this phenomenal creation comes from the haus of Yves Saint Laurent; I refuse to call it the new “Saint Laurent”, anyways, back to the point. I believe it’s a Jolie dress; very clean; very simple; and certainly very elegant. As it’s the big night for her husband, it’s nice to see that she toned the whole ensemble down to pay respect as it’s not her night. The hair and makeup is perfect. The hair is very safe, but if it was different, I think it would disrupt the entire look. 

TRIP TO PARIS FASHION WEEK (Episode 3)

So, now let's close this series of posts by talking about the most famous french brand ever... It's on our list, everyone wants a Chanel bag, such as everyone loves Chanel, right?

The Chanel woman, is very nature, she likes minerals and she surely enjoy classic colors, such as she always wore in her all life because of her mother who were already really classic. Chanel is here since so much time, that it's in her family.

She can also be called futuristic as she creates new volumes on her sleeves, uses some geometric forms and wears some cosmic jewelry on her eyebrows. Tweeds, silver coats, and metals also show her robot aspect of her futuristic idea of life.

Very urban, sometimes sportswear or even casual wear, she's more a woman that enjoys to be out and show her clothes.

One of her big news today, is to wear pants under her skirt. Now it's official, the trend is in for her and she'll wear it all the season till Karl say something else.

It's good to see this futuristic part of Chanel, the references are all really well worked out to show us an incredible collection. I'm kind of speechless in front of all these amazing pieces of Ready-To-Wear, I truly believe Karl made an amazing choice on the tissues and layers and of course it's now synonym of new things. Instead of making collections that wear just classics and formal, but still making fashion, Karl is now inventing new silhouettes and so create fashion.

So what do you think about this collection?

TRIP TO PARIS FASHION WEEK (Episode 2)

LOUIS VUITTON

So, now, let's talk about the Louis Vuitton woman. 

The Louis Vuitton woman is a cinema lover, she likes the big scenes and be seen! In all ways, she loves to be eccentric and elegant.

She often travels, and whenever she does it, she likes having her personal luggage carrier near to her. As she travels a lot her eyes are a proof that she's tired as much as she change the city, so she puts her sunglasses. Even, when it's getting to cold, her hat is her best friend because it also makes her look taller and her heels aren't enough is some cases.

Between the fluo fur, ostrich leather carry case, croco with Swarovski, oversized tote with iridescent monogram, micro bags, and so many other things... She's sometimes lost. But between all of that, she actually keep the same silhouette. 

Then, on her sophisticated period, she wears leather patchworks, mosaic, tweeds and embroidery.

More than just a fashion show. Marc Jacobs succeeds on making us travel and dreaming in a cinema way! Back to a great period, the silhouette is in bell with few layers. All I would say is that is maybe too much, even if the collection is wonderful, it keeps being maybe too much inspirations. It's like 150 years of the line in one collection. Not saying it's bad nor good, it's just getting a lot and sometimes it can confuse the woman who wants to ear LV today, as she could be realizing it's not that Ready-To-Wear. But I LOVE Louis Vuitton, and the collection is way bigger than expected so my eyes keep shinning!

So, what do you guys think about that collection?

Paris Trip to the Fashion Week

Hello, there! I first want to tell you that a new Outlet of Victory & Klaus as just opened, Reece is the owner of if, me being the founder and writer for it now.It's a Fake Gossip blog and Street Style blog at the same time, called Klaus Gossips. I'd truly be happy if you could go there and follow. Just click here.

Now coming to my point, it's Fashion Week at Paris, and while Dior wants to turn the page of John Galliano, Louis Vuitton just make a comeback to the past with a real locomotive at the Louvre, and without forgetting the Karl Lagerfeld touch at Chanel. In this post I'll be studying the silhouettes, the references and let you know about the future Fall/Winter 2012-2013 trends, and what will be in fashion there. Please see it a bit like a tv documentary, I'll pop up with pictures that you should have in mind while I'm talking about something so you can better understand and see most of the show!

DIOR HAUTE COUTURE

So the Dior Couture woman is fully integrated in the 21rst century. She sometimes likes to be unseen by the crowd

wearing a simple black blazer and pants of the same color to just be perfectly class. But the Dior Couture woman is visionary, she turns the famous jacket into a coat that she enjoys in glamorous red.

'Paradox' is a word that she loves, even wearing a long dress, she shows us everything about her body

But still, it's important to her to have ball gowns. And she's now happy to get new ones! A waisted size, grey chic, contemporary aura are most part of the Dior Couture woman vocabulary.

After all, she's a taking risk woman. If it's not the neo-length of the dress that is new, it's the new kind of jumpsuit she's wearing.

Pockets make her put her hands in it, and walk unworried and relaxed. The organza just sublime opened add the touch of uniqueness she's keen on to make her look like a Dior woman.

Raf Simons knows well the Dior codes, and got them right on this collection. The outfits were accessorized in a minimalistic way, which let people see more into the clothes itself. With all of that, the silhouettes are really waisted size but for then look like a gown at the hips. The tissues are really specifics from Dior and just show their harmony by simply using them quite every time.

It's a good collection, that I'd call versatile, but that comeback of what make us recognize Dior from the others and is using today techniques to achieve in their ideas of the evolution of the Dior woman.

Then, I hope you enjoyed this post, it's quite risky and unseen to make such a post. But I got inspired... So please tell me if you like it, and say what you think about this Dior collection?

Be right back with episode 2, Louis Vuitton...

Got your September Issue yet???

Everyone just knows about the important September Issue! You all saw the movie starring Anna Wintour and all the Vogue New York staff.

Then few days ago, I get mine... from Paris of course. 

On the cover this year : Charlotte Casiraghi, Caroline de Monaco's daughter.

Here are some pictures of the photoshoot by Mario Testino!

And my favorite one:

Then I still didn't finish to read it all... But I can already say that I am not disappointed. Vogue is still something very important for me, and like it says in the movie : september is the time to change our clothes!

Well, most of us aren't that rich to by an entire new closet... but I guess it's also important to everyone, to get the first day of class in a comfortable outfit that makes you even prouder of yourself and shows who you are from the beginning.

Then i just wanted to share my thoughts of country's Vogue with you. But, what about you, what do you think of Vogue Paris.

How's your Vogue?
