SUNDAY MATINEE ♥ McQ PRE-FALL & WINTER





I'm not sure how I feel about these fashion videos promoting the Pre-Fall and Fall/Winter McQ collections. ( McQ , in case you don't know, is the diffusion line of Alexander McQueen.) I'm also surprised at how low the viewer count is...I like the styling and the way they are shot and maybe some of them are better than others. I had a little debate with a photog friend of mine about whether or not these were original or not. My main question was..."How many times have you actually watched these?" Still, they do fit in with Nancy Girl. And they are good for a couple of watches at least. A big improvement over all the other fashion vids that are out there. What do you think? (PS After watching all of them, and then going to the site and seeing how it ties in and looks great, I still don't think it's totally original...BUT I do agree that they did them/it right...the films/branding.  I liked them. A lot.)♡

12.16.2011 NOTE...since I posted these videos last year, they have removed them from the McQueen and the McQ sites...I don't know why. They are really pretty. I could only find two of them to replace the videos that were removed.

FRIDAY FANCY ♥ CACHAREL GNOMES

OR, maybe we could call them nymphs, too.  Cacharel's Pre-Fall 2011 collection  is fun and fresh and young and very much Cacharel, thanks again to creative head Cédric Charlier (how gorgeous is that name?). But let's, once again, look at the casting and styling. Do you see how much it contributes to the story of this brand and, more so, this collection? I personally like a lot of the new tomboy nymph models a lot of the kids have been using since Nicholas Ghesquière used them in last season's Balenciega shows. But if this goes on for too long, or too many labels end up following suit,  though, the entire vibe will become stale and passé. Let's hope not too many more use these girls. Or kill this grunge-y look (yes...I also see nods to days-of-old MJ grunge). As for this pre-fall lookbook...I do believe the styling, including those little gnome-y hats, are just the thing that gave it its own story. A very young, fresh, forward one at that.♡

gorgeous red on red and a bit of black.
simple wearable and well-done. oh, and grunge.
so girly and chic and off. love it. this dress looks amazing.
love it. perfect pre-fall.
love.
really really love. perfect length.
the coat! love the coat! this is really chic gnome-grunge.
