POWER COUPLE Part 1: Garance Dore ♥


Garance Dore is the epitome of a chic street style blogger. Her work is fabulous. She is fabulous. And more often than not her subjects too- are fabulous. She is fashion photographer, stylist, illustrator and more commonly a blogger. Updating her blog daily with fresh faced and chic individuals and items that cross her path while roaming the globe. Her quirky translations make for ever better reading with posts filled with funny and sweet anecdotes of her day to day inspirations in fashion and life.


I check what Garance is up to on a daily basis, I really look forward to seeing where she is-Paris, Rio, the US or Japan. I am always floored by her flawless & sharp photography & the strange feeling that I get that I could almost be standing right next to the subject. It really is odd. You feel the warmth of the sun in her images and the chill of the snow. She transports you into the glitz of Parisian fashion shows, onto a beach in Brazil and into the wardrobes of strangers around the world. Snapping & illustrating wonderful images of fabulous people in fabulous clothes.

Needless to say, she is always rubbing backs with her fashionable friends, magazine editors, designers & stylists (Anna Dello Russo & Giovanna Battaglia) and is always in the right places (Paris Fashion Week) .


But it is the unfamiliar faces that grab my attention. The girl with the striking black hair and wonderful shoes or the lady with an stunning coat or suit. It's always the small stuff really...

One of my favourite posts was a frenchman she met in NY who caught her attention due to her love of denim shirts. He would soon lift he's pocket to reveal a red heart he's wife had embroidered. The little things...♥




And today she posted this simply beautiful girl in what looks like Missoni knit wear..heavenly....
...and so many more....




How beautiful is Chanel...such a cute winter cardigan...and the pearls...dont talk to me about Chanel pearls..they are my biggest lust after item...ONE DAY...one day...

....and to age this gracefully makes me speechless...what a beautiful woman....this has to be one of my all time favourite photos...ever...

Now this is what I mean about warmth...





& to think that Scott Schuman better known as The Sartorialist is her boyfriend...forget Brad and Angelina, and WHO exactly are the Beckham's? ...More on the other half of the power couple ...
