The Roitfelds At Haute Couture Fashion Week

Alas I have but time for a quick one: the Roitfelds are simply gorgeous at Fashion Week in Paris, see above. More to come as time and temperature! allow. Also check out the Vogue Australia interview 5 Minutes with Julia Restoin-Roitfeld in which she divulges loads of excellent beauty secrets such as using borage oil to protect and nourish her hair along with taking borage oil pills in the morning. (Yes, Tanya, I was thinking of you as I wrote this. As Julia herself says cats don't raise dogs. Full report to follow. <wink>)

Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld: Disco King

Wow. Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld was apparently in high spirits at Ferragamo's stellar launch party for their newest fragrance Attimo at The Standard in New York. Sources say it was a red hot night at the latest hot spot, Le Bain, with DJ Kiss spinning. When Vladi wasn't busy trying out the round rooftop bed with hostess Chiara Clemente, he hung out underneath the disco ball downstairs lifting his girlfriend Giovanna Battaglia into the air, twirling her around, and, my personal favorite, "generally snogging." You know a party is in full swing when the general snogging starts... Many thanks to the lovely and talented Brent Murray for his kind permission to share his photographs from the evening with you.

Today I'm Wearing: Julia Restoin-Roitfeld

June has ended and along with it our "daily" peek inside Julia Restoin-Roitfeld's closet via Vogue UK's "Today I'm Wearing." I say "daily" because of course we saw only 23 outfits total and 30 days in June. Regardless, we had a lovely glimpse of Julia's style choices including her more casual but still sexy summer looks. Fabulous! In case you missed it, I added the shots of Julia to the photo gallery and I would love to hear about your favorites so feel free to comment. Personally I would have enjoyed seeing more of her shoes...

Roitfeld As Richardson As Roitfeld

The eternally goofy Terry Richardson snapped these gorgeous candid shots of Carine Roitfeld, simply fabulous! I do not recall seeing her in a print like this before and it is surprisingly becoming. Perhaps "surprisingly" is a loose choice of words since everything is becoming on this woman. In the first shot Carine is relaxed and smiling, modeling her stunning new Dali necklace. The next photograph Richardson titled "Carine as Me… Me as Carine"... très comique. Be sure to check out Richardson's wonderful photographs of Dennis Hopper as well.

Roitfeld And Lalanne At Men's Fashion Week

Ana Clara Garmendia has captured a stunning photograph of Carine Roitfeld and Olivier Lalanne attending the shows in Paris for the current Fashion Week focusing on menswear. J'adore the bag Carine is carrying embroidered with her initials, chic and darling. If this heralds the return of the monogrammed button down... the Equipment shirt would look hot with my initials on the pocket, non ?
