It's <a href="http://www.modeaparis.com/?lang=en">Paris Fashion Week</a> and the rapper and fashion enthusiast had invites to Valentino and Givenchy. Other fashion houses were not as accommodating when West showed up unannounced. <br /><br />West hit the <a href="http://www.balmain.com/">Balmain</a> show with his entourage (and no invite), well let's just say he didn't view the latest collection from Balmain. KCD, the organizers of the show told Page Six, "Mr. West requested to attend and we let him know we would not be able to accommodate him. He chose to come to the door anyway and we kindly let him know we could not accommodate him." Yikes. West also crashed the Alexander McQueen show (uninvited) this time he managed to get through a side door.

The intricate detailing utilized in some of her dresses are stunning. Reid uses colors in a way that is sure to grab your attention. As beautifully made as many of the pieces are, they are equally comfortable, which is not always the case in women's apparel.<br /><br />The designer notes that in her work she’s inspired by style icons Emilio Pucci and David Hicks. This collection inspires the look of casual chic in an effortless manner.<br /><br />Jules Reid spends her free time between homes in Virginia and New York where she lives with her husband, daughter and three young boys ages 9, 7 and 4. With the release of her recent collection and her Fall/Winter line due out in September 2010, the designer has already begun working on her Spring/Summer 2011 collection.<br /><br />Jules Reid Spring/Summer 2010 collection is currently available online and in select boutiques.

Whether she was attending a fashion show during New York fashion week or walking the grounds of the White House before the annual Easter Egg Roll, she always managed to look chic and stylish…and it was effortless. She loves fashion and it showed from her signature hair cut, to the casual yet elegant looks and use of color both radiant and bold. Even though she's moving on to life in the corporate world, her style is sure to keep her as one to watch.The Style Mavenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11943188828695871667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945584367998628720.post-52640631186481505602010-02-01T11:47:00.000-08:002010-02-02T02:41:01.053-08:002010 Grammys: I'm underwhelmed...how about you?They arrived, won and toasted at the after parties but did anyone really show up or step up to high fashion for the 2010 Grammys?

A 13 –year old, yes and her name Tavi Gevinson, the author of a blog called Style Rookie. This little lady is in high demand filming promotions for Target and flown to Tokyo for a party with Comme Des Garcons.<br /><br />Old media -vs- new media, the traditional style of Fashion Journalism are being tossed out of the window and replaced by bloggers. Every day fashion enthusiasts are reporting at the shows with strong opinions. Insidethetents.com is the home of over 80 independent Fashion Journalist reporting at the New York Shows. In 2010 expect to see more Bloggers sitting next to you on the front row!The Style Mavenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11943188828695871667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945584367998628720.post-28332845293426582402009-12-11T22:51:00.000-08:002009-12-12T19:11:32.354-08:00Nomad's Land by Fashion Photographer ThomaasShot in New York China town.
