Sandra‘s Closet

Going to dinner at Le Caprice, I was wearing this outfit. Due to the ongoing star print trend, I reminded myself of the Viktor & Rolf dress in my closet. Like I always say, don’t throw out too much. There will always be a time again…

Dress by Viktor & Rolf, cropped leather jacket and appliquéd metallic leather clutch by Miu Miu, cage sandals by Alexander McQueen and ring by Roberto Cavalli. On my nails: Graphite by Chanel.

And as I love my job and my Mac very much, I would like to end with a quote of the late Steve Jobs, a true visionary and a creative genius:

‎”Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to…love what you do. – Your time is limited. Don’t waste it living someone else’s life”.

LoL, Sandra

Most of you know that I am a Louis Vuitton aficionado. Therefore I am always looking forward to the LV show that with its beautiful stunning decor surprises each season. Yesterday, it was a gigantic carrousel with models riding on it in pastel-coloured clothes, leaving quite another impression after Marc’s fetish-like creations for F/W 2011.

The S/S 2012 collection is sweet, full of rich details and materials, from matte crocodile jackets, coats and skirts to laser-cut tops and 3-D floral embellishments and plastic paillettes. I am completely taken by the tweed fabrics that are adorned with marabou feathers. The craftmanship that went into this collection is truly outstanding.

The last look was presented by Kate Moss, same as last season. But instead having her smoke on the runway in hot pants, she appeared in a light white floral dress like an innocent bride. I was wondering if she might be pregnant. Rumours are going around those days, same as the fashion crowd is wondering if Marc Jacobs will leave for Dior. The Louis Vuitton S/S 2012 collection looked like a slight approach. Let’s see in which direction fashion’s merry-go-round will be turning…
