paris. fashion. week. o. m. g.

friday i went to the louvre with my european painters class. we also went on thursday. one can never spend too much time at the louvre! anyway saw this man copying one of my favorite ingres paintings. 


afterwards we went to this lovely little cafe nearby which we decided would be our regular after-louvre spot. i had a delicious quiche lorraine and felt très parisienne!


from there we walked to the tuileries where we knew the dior show was happening. it didn't take us long to find the tent. there was a crowd of the most fabulously dressed people i've ever seen. i think we got there too late to see the famous editors go in but we did see hamish bowles and kate moss!!! to be more accurate all i saw was a flurry of paparazzi and a wisp of blonde hair but still i was in her presence!


there was a group of models wearing trench coats and holding heart-shaped pink and yellow balloons that said "chic!"  before the show started they released them into the air.


one of my goals in life is to be photographed by the sartorialist and thought this would be a perfect opportunity. alas, we did not see him so we had our own photo shoot in the tuileries. i did get photographed for a german magazine called life and style though. i mostly just giggled as i attempted to strike a pose that didn't look totally awkward. it was un peu random, n'est-ce pas?
