FASHIONABLE FEMME // JENNA LYONS



Jenna Lyons is worshiped by J.Crew fanatics and appreciated by style enthusiast. She is the pair of tortoise frames behind “Jenna’s Picks,” and has been the President/Creative Director of J.Crew since 2010.
Her style combines tomboy ripped jeans with silver sequin blazers. To me there's  just something special about a high-level, creative woman, who is incredibly successful and stylish.

FASHIONABLE FEMME // DIANA VREELAND.





Diana Vreeland, tastemaker, magazine editor, costume institute institution. Vreeland was perhaps New York city's most recognizable fashion icon. Everybody wants  their life to be like Diana Vreeland's heck I want my life to be like Diana Vreeland's. Before fashion editors became personalities, street style stars before all of that, there was the imminently quotable, largely self invented and always fascinating Mrs. Vreeland. She went from Belle Epoque Paris to Studio 54 and was friends with Coco Chanel, Andy Warhol and Jack Nicholson. 


"Style-all who have it share one thing: ORIGINALITY."  Diana Vreeland.



















      

       

        

        

If you have a little time this weekend you should watch "The eye has to travel" it's an awesome documentary about Mrs. Vreeland it's on netflix and trust me you won't regret it.

FASHIONABLE FEMME // JANE BIRKIN


Last week the daughter, this week the mother,  the one and only Jane Birkin the free-spirited 60's sex kitten whose style has influenced generation after generation, and in my very own humble opinion the only woman that can make a pair of  blue jeans and a white t-shirt look chic.











So boho, so french, so chic! in my next life I want to be her, who would you like to be if you had a choice?? can someone please figure out how to time travel to the past so I can met this babe and maybe marry Jim Morrison ;) just kidding husband!! 

Remember the quote from Alice in Wonderland "Sometimes I have believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."  Yep! that would be me!



Have the most awesomest day ever!!

Laura.

FASHIONABLE FEMME // LOU DOILLON


Well I really don't think there is need for an introduction for this week's fashionable femme, I mean when your mom is Jane Birkin and your father is Jacques Doillon, possessing and individual, cool sense of self is a given, but personally I would give all the credit to Lou Doillon who has definitely taken the assured genes she's inherited and has come up with a very personal and incredible point of view that is all her own. 

Ok, no more words, enjoy!












Happy Thursday!!
LAURA.

FASHIONABLE FEMME...


Today's fashionable femme is an international sensation in the worlds of modern art, an icon of the 20th century, a dirty joke-telling smoker, a woman that always wanted to portray her Mexicanidad (Mexican cultural identity) and to me a fashion icon like no other.

If you know me, you know that I have a little bit of an obsession with Frida Kahlo, but who doesn't right?? My mom introduce me to her work at a very early age, I was fascinated by her, to me Kahlo defied the odds, not only by learning to walk again (twice), but by taking the world by storm with her unique artistic vision. And of course her sense of style was out of this world for a 7 year old me!












"I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I would imagine her, and imagine she must be out there thinking of me; too. Well, I hope that if you are out there and read this and know that, yes, it's true I am her, and I am just as strange as you"

FRIDA KAHLO.



Amner and I had the chance to see her work this past summer you can read about it here, and you can see Azul dress as Frida here. 

Happy Thursday everybody, I am off to an adventure with my wild things!
