Chanel PFW

I think it's impossible not to blog about the Chanel show that just happened in Paris. With all the talk about feminism (the belief for equal treatment of men and women), from Emma Watson's speech to #FreetheNipple, equality for women is definitely being discussed and a so called "hot topic" even though the root of it began many years ago. Karl Lagerfeld must have taken notice because his S/S 15 collection was pretty loud in favor of it. The models ran through faux Parisian streets with signs of equality and donned looks filled with psychedelic swirly prints and bold stripes. I loved the homage to the fashion of the time of the sixties and seventies, the women protestors in wool pantsuits stood out the most to me while also pointing out that these protestors are "fighting" for current issues in attire from years ago, really marking how this battle is still going on and that feminism could be a huge cause of this generation in the same way protesting the Vietnam War was. The vertical pinstripes were a perfect spring/summer look and I really loved seeing Gisele Bundchen walking for some reason, I just love when it's not all brand new faces and you see familiar faces in a world that has an "it girl" for a minute and then it's on to the next. The shoes were my favorite part as well as the text purses. But enough talking, here's some of my favorite shots
