Christine Centenera Pt 4 - Aussie Aussie Aussie! The day CC (me) saw CC (Christine Centenera) outside CC (Coco Chanel) Couture show during Paris Couture Week

I know I am months behind with this post.  I cannot believe NYFW is already almost over and I haven't even posted a single photo of Paris Couture week!  I still haven't reacquired Photoshop, so I just 'shrank' my photos on iPhoto, better late than never, right?

I thought I'd start with the second day of Paris Couture week, which started with the Chanel Couture show at the Grand Palais.  Seeing fashionistas and Fashion Editors I had only seen in magazines and online previously in the flesh, was like seeing my 'rock stars', I was 'fashion struck', haha.  Mr Brigs was with me, and when Christine Centenera came out, I asked him: Oh my goodness, do you know who that was?  I was referring to the fact that we had chatted to her brother and sister-in-law at a friend's wedding not too long ago, but he said: "yeah! That girl from the Les Mis movie!" (he was referring to Samantha Banks as Eponine, hahaha!)

Anyway, how gorgeous is Christine's Burberry Prorsum coat, and gorgeous outfit under it? The simple white tee, the beautifully cut and detailed leather skirt, and those heels!

More pics of Paris Couture week to come, so watch this space...

Christine Centenera Pt 3 - Aussie Aussie Aussie! At the SS'13 Fashion Weeks.

Apologies for going MIA. I just returned from a trip to Melbourne for a cousin's wedding (which was beautiful and so sweet). and even though we had a fantastic time, I am so glad to be home, and am absolutely knackered... Anyway, at the rate I'm going, it will be the next Fashion Week season before I have finished my posts. So without further ado, I present to you all Christine Centenera's style in the recent SS'13 Fashion Weeks. Not one to shy away from taking risks, she is a great 'ambassador' for Australian fashion, mixing Australian designers such as Ellery, Ksubi, Sass & Bide, Willow and of course, her boyfriend's label Josh Goot, with international designers such as Givenchy, Tom Ford, Proenza Schouler, Celine and Alaia:

Christine Centenera takes more risks in the shapes/cuts/accessories of her garments than colours (opting for black most of the time)...it's always fun seeing her resulting style/outfits:

Even though I have not featured Christine in this blog before, I have long admired her fun and risk-taking style. This young Aussie is the Fashion Editor at Harper's Bazaar Australia and also freelances as a stylist. I love it when she wears Aussie designers such as Dion Lee, Lover and Josh Goot (like the first jacket pictured below), her style was in fine form during the recent Fashion Weeks:
