RELEASE sept. 29TH : RUNWAY

Here comes another review! The limited release of this week is a new floor at Runway. As you may recall, this shop brings us accurate pieces from, well, runways. I would be insane not to adore this shop.. even if it is actually quite expensive. Still, I wish the release was bigger; five outfits is just not enough SD!

This release was taken from FW 2017-2018 runways. You may definitely spot trends here: see-trough, all over red, power warrior, tailored 40's and obviously red (millennial pink is always around the corner, héhé don't worry). Here is a IRL sneak-peek at the release.

I am beyond satisfied with this, although I did not get all the pieces I wanted. See this Givenchy dress and that Miu-Miu one. On one hand I'm fine not getting it since I have a billion dresses I just can't style, but on the other one I see great potential in those... 

But enough small talk. Here is a compendium of what I bought. I genuinely love those Balmain pieces; they are quite classic and seems to be enough versatile to work with. This is about to be interesting while styling..

From the Runway shop

- BODYCON DRESS/Balmain: good, another dress. I am definitely going to cheat with this one in the "outfit part" of this article. The top game is interesting; the fact that the stripes are close makes it less see-through and a little more versatile.. *****

- DOGTOOTH JACKET/Balmain: I need kimonos like this one. I need a new one every day. My thirst is endless. Seriously, even as a boy piece, this kimono has some interesting movement. Do I need to add that this pattern it beyond fun? *****

- SUEDE LEGGINGS BOOTS/Balmain: still not fan of tight-high boots, but I must admit that the texture of the legs is just purely insane! It's almost "basic" material, and it's definitely versatile to work with, perfect to jazz-up any boring outfit. *****

- FAKE HAIRY HAT/John Galliano: hahaha I have no explanations for this one.. *****

- PATENT HEELS/Givenchy: my favorite item so far; they are absolutely perfect! Plain red, delicate features and strong minimalism.. a must-have. *****

- CLEAR COAT/Miu Miu: the most intriguing piece.. and definitely the hardest to wear. Still, the millennial pink fur is very funky and the clear plastic material makes it über fashionable. This is not a reasonable expense, but it is definitely a statement piece to show off from time to time! *****

& here are my outfits.

While constructing them, 
I could see some "districts of Paris" theme emerging.  

The first one is about that laid back vibe, but also with a tiny little addition of vanity. 

The second one is a little more fierce and playful; either extravagant or careless.
