Links à La Mode: Weekly Roundup 10/11
Great news! My post on the “advantages” of menswear x womenswear made it to this week’s Links à La Mode from the Independent Fashion Bloggers website.
We’ll Always Have Paris……At least when it comes to Fashion Week. Many of this week’s posts were inspired by both the collections and the street stye scene during the SS13 shows in Paris. It’s also no surprise that with Autumn finally taking a (nice, crispy grip) on just about everyone’s mind, there were many posts on your favorite cool weather trends (leather, anyone?). To round things out, we had some truly thought-provoking and inspiring posts on Dolce & Gabbana’s earring controversy, Solange’s latest video, and menswear versus womenswear. As always, thank you so much to everyone who submitted their posts this week!

Store Highlight: FrenchTrotters, Paris
A couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to visit Première Vision in Paris and besides browsing through an endless array of amazing fabrics, I still had some time to cruise the Parisien streets in search of outstanding stores. One of the first I had the opportunity to visit was FrenchTrotters…
With an eclectic selection of hyped brands including Our Legacy, Woolrich, Levi’s M&C, Barena, Opening Cerimony, Band of Outsiders, Makr and their homonymous label, it’s a treat for every menswear enthusiast out there. The two-storey space is beautifully decorated with light shaded wood and plants, giving it a warm, cosy feeling setting the mood for your shopping spree. As for me, I couldn’t leave without a superb burgundy velvet fedora (more on that on a future post)…
