Au revoir Nicolas Ghesquière

Nicolas Ghesquière and Balenciaga are parting ways! His departure, at the end of the month, was just announced.

What, why, how can this be?

Nicolas Ghesquière was the creative director at the House sinds 1997. What he did at Balenciaga was amazing! He worked his magic by creating innovative, persuasive, powerful, and highly anticipated collections, season after season. Ghesquière remade Balenciaga one of Paris' iconic Fashion Houses, and one of my personal favorites. To many he was synonymous with The House of Balenciaga, and yes, even good things come to an end.

I'm sad but it's just an au revoir, so I'm looking forward to see what Nicolas Ghesquière will do next. Meanwhile I'll start saving for some gorgious pieces of his S/S2013 master collection.

White shoes

Let's talk about white shoes cause now that they've been spotted on the feets of celebs like SJP, Gwyneth Paltrow, even Kate Middleton, among others, they're no longer considered a fashion faux pas. Isn't that typical? For so many years people are going: "Oh no, you can't wear this or that. Why? It's trashy, it's tacky. Why? Because". Of course because means no one else is wearing it.
Me, I never play by that rule! I've always been heartened by white shoes and I've been wearing them sinds I was a little girl. I can't recall how many pairs I've owned sinds then, but I've owned some very pretty ones during all those years. There were Mary Janes, ballet flats, sandals, and oh a pair of Dries Van Noten cut out sandals that I wore to dead, my heart ached when I had to throw them away, and my heart got broken when my Alaïa gladiators that got stolen. I'm a shoe lover, of course I am, but I must say that for me white shoes do what no other shoes can't do. Especially white pumps, walking around in a pair of white pumps makes me feel a certain way. They are so complementary in comparison to any other pumps and just because of that they can complement my outfit in this particular way. An article in British Vogue said that they're not for summer but for fall. Well, for me they're for all season, that's the advantage of a black skin. Yes, I love white leather shoes, and I don't need anyone, any trend or any fashion, as much as I Love Fashion, to allow me to wear them. I just do cause for me they're part of my personal style!
