Paris Fashion Week AW 2012...Nadia

Nadia Sarwar, before Isabel Marant (I think!), Paris, March 2012.

Recreate Nadia's super cute look (kind of):

Zero + Maria Cornejo Devo dress (add a navy long sleeve tee like Nadia until the weather warms up) or Carven dungaree style dress (adore this dress especially the back with the crossover straps) or Topshop hooded jersey midi dress

ASOS Abel leather lace-up boots

ASOS boyfriend knit beanie



New York Fashion Week AW 2012...Chantal

Chantal Stafford-Abbott, after Tracy Reese, NYC, February 2012.

Recreate Chantal's look (kind of):

Marc by Marc Jacobs olive green Delancey parka coat with removable hood  or ASOS khaki parka with detachable faux fur lining.

MiH Marrakesh kick flare jeans (a subtle flare) or Current/Elliott The Low Bell low rise flared jeans



Paris Fashion Week AW 2012...Grace

There is something about New Zealand born, Paris based Grace's style that I absolutely adore. It's...unaffected, undone, honest somehow....rather like that of another one of my girl style crushes, Ursina. It is refreshing to see at fashion week. And of course I am crazy about Grace's freckles ;)

One of my friend's said to me at Chanel, "Ness, I just photographed a girl you would love....she is SO your type". When I looked at the photograph on the back of her camera, it was Grace! It is funny that most of us photographers at the fashion weeks have a particular type of girl/style we like photographing. It is what keeps things interesting, I think.

Recreate Grace's look (kind of):

Whetherly Noam double jersey tee or ASOS double-layer tee

Max Studio dark brown leather coat or Marni caramel leather coat or Vince leather coat (a great trans seasonal piece) 

Duffy grey wool and cashmere beanie

Marc by Marc Jacobs electro blue Too Hot to Handle zip around wallet or wristlet  
Smythson orange Keep Calm and Carry On notebook (a motto I like to play on repeat in my head during the fashion weeks ;)

Essie mint candy apple nailpolish (do you see the colour of Grace's manicure...and her hand chain? So cool!)
