I haven’t done a Throwback Thursday here in quite a while, and what better occasion to revive it than CANNES TIME? Yes, it’s that time of year again — where both American and foreign A-listers gather in the south of France to celebrate film be photographed in expensive borrowed gowns for all of us to judge. But because the festival kicked off just yesterday, I wanted to wait a bit before we discussed this year’s red carpet so I thought I’d compromise and talk about the best of the Cannes red carpet from years past (as well as the not-so-great, the…interesting, and the Diane Kruger — a category of its own).
Throwback Thursday: Kate Middleton
What do you do when the Duchess of Cambridge turns 32? (besides wonder what your life would have been like if you married a prince before you were 30). You look at some of her past outfits (both good and bad), put her in THE Dolce & Gabbana crown (it’s her birthday and she is royalty, after all) with your not-existent Photoshop skills and #tbt to some of the best Kate Middleton moments.
Happy birthday, K-Mid.
Throwback Thursday: A Barneys Holiday
Although maneuvering my way anywhere on Michigan Avenue or Oak Street during the holidays is less than ideal, holiday-themed windows make it much more manageable. Especially those of one of the stores that’s best known for their holiday windows — Barneys.
Throwback Thursday: The Last 4 Years
In just a few days, ChiCityFashion turns 4 (which is 28 in blog years) but because that day isn’t a Thursday and you can only throw it back on a Thursday (unless you flash it back on a Friday and unfortunately I can’t have a Throwback Thursday AND Flashback Friday feature on ChiCityFashion…conflict of interest, really) I thought today would be the perfect day to recap some of my favorite things that happened on CCF in the last four years.
Ready? Let’s do this.
Throwback Thursday: Isabel Marant
With Isabel Marant x H&M launching today (and we all know how I feel about designer collaborations) I thought we should look at the real reason why everyone loves the French designer. Because after all, Isabel Marant was happening way before the Dicker boot and sneaker wedges. For reals.
