feel comfortable in your head and you'll feel comfortable in your clothes. Olivia

Voilà plusieurs jours que nous n'avons pas posté de photos de nous sur le blog ! Comme je suis en vacances jusqu'à fin janvier, j'en profite donc pour aller faire quelques photos en ville avec Anne-Laure et Chloé, c'est toujours fun ! C'est dans la joie et la bonne humeur que nous nous sommes amusées devant l'appareil photo. En attendant que Mariam ai un peu moins de travail (eh oui l'école de communication visuelle ça rigole pas!!) c'est donc Moi, Olivia qui m'occupe du blog et c'est avec plaisir que je vous poste ci-dessus de nouvelles photos prises hier après-midi. S'en est suivi une petite heure dans un café trop chou appelé le Chouquet's à Rue des Remparts dans le centre ville, après avoir ingurgité un délicieux chocolat viennois, nous rentrons enfin chez nous. Voilà le genre d'après-midi que j'aime passé avec des amies. De plus, qu'est ce que je déteste l'hiver, mettre de gros manteaux qui gâche tout, pas pour moi ! quitte à attraper la crève je m'habille toujours léger mais je ne suis pas si folle que ça, je ne vais pas me balader en t-shirt non plus (bien que j'en ai vu certains le faire) lol juste une grosse veste et basta...bon après s'il fait -15 hein on va se faire violence ahah. Aussi, si Mariam n'a pas trop le temps de sortir elle poste souvent des articles sur son blog personnel de différents travaux réalisés pour son école ou des photos qui illustrent son quotidien, si vous voulez jeter un coup d'oeil c'est par ici : Mademoiselle Ma, ses dessins sont vraiment géniaux !

Julie Interview

DW__What's your name? How old are you and where do you live?

Julie Khuu, 31 years old, currently residing in Orange County, Southern California

DW__Where would you love to live?

I dream of living in Paris one day...love the culture, sights, smells, people…if not, a summer house there would be grand.

DW__When did you start blogging?

April 2010.

DW__How did you come up with the idea?

As an interior designer, I’m constantly seeking inspiration from all over the globe…I mainly follow up-to-the-minute runway looks to inspire my next designs.

Fashion is fickle and ever-evolving, I’d like my designs to carry that same impetus for constant change…I started the blog as a way to curate all my ideas.

DW__What is fashion for you?

Fashion for me is a lifestyle. The decisions I make when dressing myself and the interiors I design are rooted in the expressive nature of fabrics, textures, rhythm, proportion and their relationship to one another.

It’s a way of life, not merely the clothes I choose to wear.

DW__According to you, what is the most significant period for women's fashion?

Every period had its heyday but currently it’s all about the 80’s to me. Being born in early 80’s I saw how women used the maximalist approach to express themselves then start paring down silhouettes, styles, even mannerisms. Totally in your face and unapologetic….love that freedom of overindulgence. Although not the most pleasing aesthetics, it’s all about the attitude of the 80’s for me.

DW__What do you think about the influence of fashion bloggers in the fashion world?

Fashion bloggers are here to stay. Each individual has such a unique, expressive voice to contribute to where fashion’s going today and tomorrow. No longer relegated to the rich, style can be sought on every level, on every budget. There’s some fabulous bloggers out there who have built an entire wardrobe on thrifted staples. You can’t buy that kind of style anywhere.

DW__Do you believe that one day they'll replace the fashion magazine or do you think it's just ephemeral ?

Oh never. Nor do I wish them to. Just as the internet and television coexist to contribute to a media savvy society, so do editorials and fashion blogs alike. It’s just a matter of opinion and every single individual is entitled to one. It’s really just a preference of format. I can't live without my Vogue and Instyle, and I also can’t live without following my fave fashion and street style bloggers.

DW__Your favourite item in your wardrobe ?

My vintage leopard coat that I scored in Portland, OR while living there for a year. It cost me $35USD and seriously still looks like the richest article of clothing in my entire wardrobe. It makes the dowdiest frocks look downright fabulous and my most worn in sweatpants look chic and stylish. The best pieces have the ability to transform. It does just that.

DW__3 Indispensable items ?

Iphone, EOS chapstick, and a tape measure.

DW__Is your style personal or is it inspired by what is already out there?

A bit of both I think. Some days I can’t help but be inspired by other bloggers, models down the runway, or stylish editorials. Other days it’s all about my mood and what the weather permits. Constantly in flux, constantly evolving.

DW__Where do you get your ideas from?

Art. History. Runways. Interior Design. Nature. Pop culture. Everywhere. As long as my eyes are open, I’m game for anything.

DW__What is your greatest inspiration?

I love the free-spiritedness of the 70’s and the maximalist approach to the early 80’s. I’m all about decadence and femininity and use both those areas of art and design to influence my aesthetic. I’m apparently a hippie child with a completely over-excessive personality. It’s all about more is more for me.

DW__How important is it for you to look your best and why?

It is critical for me to look my best every day. I’m a walking advertisement for my interior design business. As an artist, every facet should tell a story about your personal aesthetic. Clients buy the overall package, just not bits and pieces. Every look needs to make a statement about my designs and what I can accomplish for my client’s with an artist’s vision.

DW__Who would qualify to be an icon?

I love everything Kelly Wearstler’s doing to marry interior design and fashion. Her over-the-top, colorful, whimsical aesthetic is so fun and ostentatious…no explanations, no apologies. I strive for that ballsy approach every day in my life. Young and hip: Kate Moss, Alexa Chung, Nicole Richie…the usual suspects. Old school: Iris Apfel for ageless exuberance, Diane Von Furstenberg for really understanding the power of a woman’s sexuality.

DW__Your ideal female or male would have what style? what would he/she be wearing?

Individual style is all about who is able to express themselves with confidence. It could be the wild child in all rock n’roll garb or the quiet ingénue in flowy fabrics and light gauzy cloth…The ideal figure is one who is most comfortable in his/her skin. We have to tell you that WE LOVE your style ! you have an unique style !

DW__What is your favourite colour?

Depends on what mood I’m in. Right now I’m really feeling Pantone’s color of the year tangerine tango paired with pastels and anchored with black for spring…makes a modern and definitive statement, but the pale hues add a touch of whimsy and magic to the mix.

DW__Websites? blogs? other links?

Fashion: WhoWhatWear.com for trends and celebrity style. Jak and Jil for model looks…love Lookbook.nu to see what the kids are wearing these days. Design : I’m addicted to all the flash sales at One Kings Lane, Joss & Main, The Foundary, Gilt Home, etc…like an edited version of all things haute and luxe in the world of design delivered to your inbox every day. Even novices could navigate these sales with ease and rest assured that purchases are curated by the most stylish and discerning eye. Win-win for everyone!

DW__One last/final word?

My favorite quote: “Clothes aren’t going to change the world, but the women who wear them will.” – Anne Klein, American designer. Confidence starts from the inside and grows outward…Clothing is what you say to the world without saying anything at all. True artists transcend this medium and move mountains just by getting dressed. Love that quote.

shoe addict

Pourquoi nous aimons tant les chaussures? C'est pire qu'une drogue, peut-être même que c'est une maladie? haha C'est comme les vêtements, nos placards et/ou dressing sont remplis, ils débordent de vêtements mais on dit toujours qu'on a plus de vêtements à se mettre, qu'il n'y en a pas assez ! Je crois que cette addiction pour les chaussures ne s'arrêtera jamais, même quand on est fauchée et qu'on voit cette belle paire de chaussures qui nous supplie de la prendre ben...on l'achète! Pas forcément parce qu'on a plus de chaussures à se mettre mais parce qu'on en ressent le besoin, le besoin d'avoir une nouvelle paire dans notre collection!

On nous as fait part d'un documentaire qui traite de la relation que nous entretenons avec nos chaussures. Une femme est plus belle avec des talons, vous ne pensez pas? les talons font tout! Les talons nous rendent élégantes, avec, on se sent plus jolie, notre corps parait plus sexy, on a de l'assurance, tout est harmonieux.
Olivia : je fais 1m73 et je me contrefiche de faire 1m80-85 avec des talons, on est jamais trop grande pour en porter. Pourquoi les grandes femmes devraient s'en priver? c'est tellement féminin, je n'ai donc aucun complexe à en porter.

Mariam : petite comme je suis, j'aime prendre de la hauteur, et quoi de mieux que de se hisser sur des hauts talons? Sur ces échasses, certes je triche un peu (5cm) voir beaucoup (15cm avec plateau) mais je me sens plus féline, plus féminine. Mes jambes semblent s'allonger et ma démarche plus chaloupée. Les talons mettent en valeur le corps de la femme ce qui ne semble pas déplaire aux hommes. Bref, j'ai du mal à m'en passer car j'ai l'impression qu'il manque un prolongement quasi-naturel de mon corps.

Ce qui est aussi intéressant en achetant ce dvd "god save my shoes" c'est qu'en cadeau il y a une des paires de chaussures les plus adulées au monde, les Louboutin (oui oui vous avez bien compris) !! C'est le partenaire red carpet paris qui a caché une paire d'escarpins crées par Christian Louboutin dans un des dvd qui sera vendu entre le 10 et le 24 décembre, si ça c'est pas un beau cadeau de Noël ! De plus, pour chaque dvd vendu sur le site web du film, une paire sera donnée à un enfant dans le besoin oui oui. Pour plus d'infos, vous pouvez toujours aller sur la page facebook, le site web où il y a des webisodes très interessants avec des interviews de créateurs.

Eszter Interview

DW__What's your name? How old are you and where do you live?

Eszter, 34, I live in vienna with my little son and my boyfriend.

DW__Where would you love to live?

Oh, it definitely has to be a pulsing place and near the sea.

DW__When did you started blogging?

In 2008.

DW__How did you come up with the idea?

I started very soon after i stumbled across personal blogs the first time. i wanted to give it a try myself, the whole blogging thing made me so curious. I wanted to know how the hell blogging feels, i couldnt imagine how someone would visit and give a shit. That was fascinating stuff to me.

Yeah, and then the whole thing felt good to me, so i kept on going.

DW__What is fashion for you?

Projection surface for desires.

Thrill.

Group membership.

Overrated.

Underrated.

Fabric.

DW__According to you, what is the most significant period for women's fashion?

I think the 1960s.the traditions started to crumbled, the freedom of

choice arose and women+men started to present themselves as whatever the fuck they were up to, it felt like everything goes. yes, i know, its a doubtful question if there is a freedom of choice anyway but i like the idea about that myth.in the 70s i love especially the androgyny, and

then in the 1980s the females got this amazon touch i love. The 90s were straight and casual which i also adore very much personally.

But regarding the impact, still the 60s win.

DW__What do you think about the influence of fashion bloggers in the fashion world?

The fashion blogs are a big marketing factor so naturally blogs will

massively gain their attraction for brands in the future- even more. Its a win win situation for both.

DW__Do you believe that one day they'll replace the fashion magazine or do you think it's just ephemeral ?

I believe mags will be mainly replaced by some multimedia forms. but fashion mags will for sure not disappear so soon, but their status will definitely change. But i dont think blogs in the common way will do that job.

DW__Your favourite item in your wardrobe ?

There is not such an item. I tend to love and loathe clothes in a moody

cycle.

DW__3 Indispensable items ?

My son,My boy, the internet.

DW__Is your style personal or is it inspired by what is already out there?

Oh, i am definitely inspired by trends, you know, i get bored pretty quickly so i enjoy those created waves. On the other hand i like to think that every person is kinda uhm personal in the end hehe.

DW__Where do you get your ideas from?

Lookbooks, clothes itself, the catwalk, editorials, blogs, the street, the past.The usual stuff.

DW__What is your greatest inspiration?

Clothes/designs itself.

DW__How important is it for you to look your best and why?

As a blogger you present yourself in a way you want people to see

you.Besides that i highly enjoy to look my worst from time to time.its liberating.

DW__Who would qualify to be an icon?

David Bowie.

DW__Your ideal female or male would have what style? what would he/she be wearing?

In a best case scenario: nothing.

DW__We have to tell you that WE LOVE your style ! you have an unique style!

Thank you dolls, i love u too!

DW__What is your favourite colour?

I honestly love every color.

DW__Websites? blogs? other links?

kimjongillookingatthings, ponyxpress, manymany other tumblrs.

DW__One last/final word?

Life is good dolls.True story.

Chelsea Interview

DW__What's your name? How old are you and where do you live?

I’m Chelsea Lankford, twenty and living in Minneapolis!

DW__When did you start blogging?

I began writing my blog in October of 2010.

DW__How did you come up with the idea?

Since I shopped online and put outfits together all the time, my mom suggested I start a blog to show other people my ideas! I started and fell in love with the whole blogging community.

DW__What is fashion for you?

There are people who are fashionable, and there are people who have style. I have “a” style, but a lot of the time I’m not necessarily wearing what the fashion industry is telling me to wear. Fashion is art, an expression of feeling, a result of something that inspires you.

DW__According to you, what is the most significant period for women's fashion?

Obviously trends come and go, but I am seriously impressed by how long the 70’s trend has stuck around for!

DW__What do you think about the influence of fashion bloggers in the fashion world?

The fashion world has taken such an interest in fashion bloggers because we represent reality. We don’t have stylists, we post what we love, and the industry can see the influence bloggers have on their audience. Blogging has much more sway in the industry than before.

DW__Do you believe that one day they'll replace the fashion magazine or do you think it's just ephemeral ?

I strongly believe blogs will be around for a long time, but I definitely think they will evolve just like the magazine has. Many magazines can be read electronically now, but they are separate from blogs. I think they’ll stay separate for quite some time still.

DW__Your favourite item in your wardrobe?

My Levi’s denim leggings. I wear them almost every day.

DW__Is your style personal or is it inspired by what is already out there?

I’ve always considered the way I dress to be very personal, because I like to be comfortable. If something isn’t comfortable or I don’t feel confident in it, I won’t wear it no matter what celebrity has it or which magazine it was in.

DW__Where do you get your ideas from?

The blog world, definitely! And I like looking through editorials for places like Shopbop and Piperlime for the season’s key pieces, and Free People for styling inspiration.

DW__What is your greatest inspiration?

All the wonderful people I’ve met through blogging. They are always doing something new and exciting!

DW__How important is it for you to look your best and why?

Looking good is a huge confidence booster for all people. You’re more friendly, more comfortable, more at ease when you look your best. Also, styling is a career where it is crucial to look presentable, because potential clients are going to judge you based on how you look. First impressions really are that important.

DW__Who would qualify to be an icon?

Someone who wears their style with confidence—like natural beauty Emma Watson. Thousands now look to her for style inspiration as she continues to define her signature look.

DW__Your ideal female or male would have what style? what would he/she be wearing?

I love when a guy finds a pair of perfect fitting jeans, that aren’t too tight or too baggy. Plus, a knockout pair of boots is always acceptable!

DW__If we say “Louboutin” what do you tell us?

Can’t speak! Heart racing! Excitement!

DW__What is one of your greatest memories of fashion blogger?

Probably getting to meet up with one of my favorite bloggers, Natalie Suarez of Natalie Off Duty! She came up to Seattle for a couple days and we got to get lunch and explore one afternoon. She is adorable, I miss her!

DW__What is your favourite colour?

Grey. Seattle’s weather has rubbed off on me!

DW__Websites? blogs? other links?

My favorite blogs are The Style Child (thestylechildblog.com), Denj (hellodenj.com) and Kenzie Faith (kenziefaith.blogspot.com). Also, check out fashism.com and birchbox.com—love them!

DW__One last/final word?

Thank you for the interview, and I can’t wait to see you over at my blog!
