Paris: Day eight

So sad that fashion week is drawing to an end. I have truly loved every moment–from the mad crush at the tent entrance to the metallic accents on coats, bags and shoes to the mid-afternoon macaroon fashion refuels.

Back to the Accessories Show on Saturday morning with my Starbucks in tow (at this point in the week, caffeine and gel foot cushions are a fashion girl's best friend). Ran over to the Chloé show and managed to squeeze into an amazing seat (perfect view of Anna and Bee) before the show began.

Literally jumped out of bed this morning. Kind of felt like Christmas morning...reality check: it was the Chanel show. Ooh la la...total crush of the cool (Claudia Schiffer), as I grabbed my seat in front of the giant iconic Chanel merry-go-round. Pearls, tweed jackets, fresh blowouts and chain-handled bags surround me–think I am in heaven.

Early start to the day, but somehow the lack of sleep is manageable, due to the prospect of seeing Kaiser Karl at Lagerfeld. Carine Roitfeld and photog Patrick Demarchelier are the last to be seated and then the show begins. Funny how suddenly, when the music starts and I see the models take the runway, sleep is the last thing on my mind. See photos from this show.

A rainy start to the day – oh mon Dieu, my freshly flat-ironed locks! – so I snuck in a grande Starbucks to wakey wakey while reading the WWD review of Dior yesterday.

Shown: Dior Fall 2008. Photography by Peter Stigter.
Started the day with a croquet-madame and a café au lait outside near the Palais Royal. Frenchy females are wearing: black ballet flats, wayfarers (still), black mini capes, leather bombers, chain-handled lady bags or everything-but-the-kitchen-sink totes.

Ah, Paris! The people watching, the shopping–I am lusting after a white patent, oversized Longchamp clutch.
