I find it hard to believe there’s anybody out there who hasn’t heard about Samsonite at least once.

If you’ve been reading Stylefrizz, you’ve also heard about Chloë Sevigny’s advertising projects with Samsonite as well as Milla Jovovich’s print ads for Samsonite. Now it’s another round of Samsonite news making waves. Their Black Label Trunk collection (part of the Vintage series) was touched by the bling-my-everything-mania! If normally, a Samsonite Black Label Trunk costs about $950, I don’t even imagine what would be its Swarovski enhanced price!

Not so long ago I’ve seen a pair of skinny tartan pants in a high street fashion chain store. Was not impressed. Moved along and bought a mini tartan dress instead with a little black embroidery in the front. That because plaid is funny and very much in this fall.

However, seeing La Moss wearing these tartan skinny pants didn’t made me go fashion sleepwalking, blinded by her overwhelming style icon status, So I didn’t rushed down the door with soul purpose emptying the store’s tartan pants stock. Yes she looks pretty, yes she can pull those pants because she’s got a thin constitution but I still don’t get bitten by the skinny tartan bug. Yes, her look is very nonchalant and carefree but so trendy in the same time, yes, she’s Kate Moss! (more after the jump, don’t miss the poll attached to this post!)

As you may have noticed, the leggings are here to stay! From a serious distance, however, tights are approaching in full speed and full power!

In case you had no idea what to buy and how to wear/match, I got out in the internet’s fishing pond and came back with a handful of trendy tights for your eyes delight and your wardrobe update. I’ll make this funnier, in a form of a questionnaire with answers, all after the jump, exemplified with photos!

When I first saw this picture of Victoria Beckham wearing the over the knee black PVC boots, I couldn’t think about something else but my dream PVC Rodarte like pants.

PVC, like leather pants aren’t easy to pull by any constitution. However, fetishist boots like these ones didn’t cross my mind as an alternative to the PVC pants. Simply because even if your feet may look gorgeous, the leg’s skin is subject to heavy perspiration making it all awkward to wear. (if you look closely, on Posh’s boots there are some blurry areas due to perspiration). (more after the jump!)

Because it sums up many of modern individual’s problems, this photo brought a smile to my face.

I don’t know if it’s real or not, but it surely is an interesting message. Someone who only wants a simple living, just enough to feed his family and make it through without worrying for his dear ones immediate needs, can’t be someone who doesn’t know how to enjoy life and its little charms. I have no social understanding of this ever-wanting-more and forgetting-to-actually-live phenomenon but it’s spreading like a virus. So don’t forget to stop and ask yourself every once in a while what is the cost of your work. The actual cost of your work. And if that helps you or keeps you from living and enjoying your life!

What marketing magic wand can cross your path and transform your apartment into a Chanel oasis?

Even if the official launch is scheduled for October 10th, the latest Chanel perfume “No. 5 Eau première” had its VIP launch in a more sophisticated an unusual way in a 250 m2 Parisian private apartment. Everything was transformed into a Chanel set by the French interior designer Jean-Marc Gady (who has already worked with Lous Vuitton, Moet and Apple). There were test sprays, photos of Chanel spokefaces (from Mlle Chanel, Marilyn Monroe up until present times to Nicole Kidman). At all times, a fountain sprayed drops of the new fragrance into the air. Honestly, if someone could make my house look like this gorgeous mansion, I’d put it on the marketing market right now!
