the day I met CARINE ROITFELD

of all the celebrity sightings i've had since moving into the city (there have been so many), today's was hands-down the most exhilarating of all.<br /><br />after stopping by the newly-opened Ladurée on Madison early in the afternoon, my dear friend Justin and I walked down to Barneys so I can narrow down which boot I need to buy for fall: Isabel Marant Dickers, Rag & Bone's Newbury...or maybe some Acne Pistols? We were making our way to the 7th floor when we spotted The Row and decided to step off the escalator to take a closer look at the collection. I was drooling over the bright baby blue Kuffley fox fur coat, when Justin grabbed my arm and turned me to the direction of...the one and only...<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">C A R I N E  R O I T F E L D.</div><br />i can not describe the feeling i had when i saw her so nonchalantly shopping - all by herself - as if she didn't know she was the most amazing woman in fashion. Justin courageously tapped her on the shoulder and introduced himself, then i introduced myself, and then we three had a nice little chat over our love of Ladurée, her new book <i>IRREVERENT - "</i>but <i>so</i> expensive<i>," </i>she says, and AND she asked where my sweater was from. <br /><br />"Phillip Lim," I said.<br /><br />"You're my style inspiration for the day," she replied.<br /><br />Then, I died.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPnL69gFJheRmVcy-NAhvIcs5FOGRfXug7I19brm2gIsycrLGga6umtoHcohfQ2fQgR_IwXc8_5j8PMvGiXcQdXDAlualn-fCUH6RsfvJUZBQnKD4KF2UHGfEuAcyl8MYdaaTrPyUgSAPQ/s1600/IMG_3614.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPnL69gFJheRmVcy-NAhvIcs5FOGRfXug7I19brm2gIsycrLGga6umtoHcohfQ2fQgR_IwXc8_5j8PMvGiXcQdXDAlualn-fCUH6RsfvJUZBQnKD4KF2UHGfEuAcyl8MYdaaTrPyUgSAPQ/s640/IMG_3614.jpg" width="424" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">CR & me</td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaEFBwVCmJqeLyGO2njiLYNJCGLKqJz-8VjT3aLl7vgTtznuSBU8ynsgo5qvTEG_1Wo-WFCGoNYxXp7FQgWLQv4i6OxHJOA6EpAVJum2RmolRRKRfld-WziMIatyS5rtpfiA3qGW31MdoD/s1600/IMG_3616.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaEFBwVCmJqeLyGO2njiLYNJCGLKqJz-8VjT3aLl7vgTtznuSBU8ynsgo5qvTEG_1Wo-WFCGoNYxXp7FQgWLQv4i6OxHJOA6EpAVJum2RmolRRKRfld-WziMIatyS5rtpfiA3qGW31MdoD/s640/IMG_3616.jpg" width="424" /></a></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidUSBNkZg8TsTqQ1J73f8IsDXuv0ZbWzzO0cWfCbjbedMDDRyWbzRKpeDDn1v6UB7ybS10FcmF2vy5ff3eSweMSdSwAUL-rQ5LX3dyJwdAFA53fOMdsI4p1Vrwec4KMNzaZMh7wa29SdbP/s1600/IMG_3618.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidUSBNkZg8TsTqQ1J73f8IsDXuv0ZbWzzO0cWfCbjbedMDDRyWbzRKpeDDn1v6UB7ybS10FcmF2vy5ff3eSweMSdSwAUL-rQ5LX3dyJwdAFA53fOMdsI4p1Vrwec4KMNzaZMh7wa29SdbP/s640/IMG_3618.JPG" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">my and justin's signed BNY catalogs</td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFm2if3nwvV4QD9KssxAJCKZjeBdJD2f8lq6zOOg82_cp7DOcfCfJOm-mSq4mJzwl0NqjOpCg4wt-HgOqANp_tgQi9xzkfw2Swn12B9l742g25j9SUhOR8d0h2bdQfrq_Y_DwnhrDpSpOw/s1600/IMG_3620.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFm2if3nwvV4QD9KssxAJCKZjeBdJD2f8lq6zOOg82_cp7DOcfCfJOm-mSq4mJzwl0NqjOpCg4wt-HgOqANp_tgQi9xzkfw2Swn12B9l742g25j9SUhOR8d0h2bdQfrq_Y_DwnhrDpSpOw/s640/IMG_3620.JPG" width="424" /></a></div> <i><span style="font-size: large;">NICE TO MEET YOU ANNA!

Emmanuelle Alt is the new Carine Roitfeld

i'm going to swim with the tides and also make my own special announcement (already posted<a href="http://nymag.com/daily/fashion/2011/01/emmanuelle_alt_named_editor_of.html"> here</a>, <a href="http://www.fashionologie.com/Emmanuelle-Alt-Named-Vogue-Paris-Editor-13144785">here</a>, & <a href="http://www.knighttcat.com/2011/01/emmanuelle.html">here</a>) that Vogue Paris' fashion director EMMANUELLE ALT is now stepping up & taking the vacant space that CARINE ROITFELD left as editor in chief, effective February 1. this comes as no surprise. Alt has been with the mag since late 2000, and after ten years of doing such a great job, she's finally getting to have her name at the top of the masthead in the April issue of Vogue Paris. wow, there IS such thing as moving up in the magazine world. i now have hope.<br /><br />i've always loved her style, as seen in one of this blog's earlier posts, <a href="http://thehautecommodity.blogspot.com/2010/04/class-alt.html">here</a>. but in spirit of this new news, i'll do homage to Emmanuelle, part deux.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

ADIEU, CARINE

after 10 fabulous years of being the editor in chief of <i><a href="http://www.vogue.fr/">French Vogue</a></i>, CARINE ROITFELD is saying good bye to her throne as editrix and waving hello to something...new.<br /><br />"It's 10 years that I'm editor of the magazine," Ms. Roitfeld, one of the most influential editors in the fashion business, said in a telephone interview with journalist <a href="http://runway.blogs.nytimes.com/">Cathy Horyn</a>. "I think it's time to do something different."<br /><br /><i><a href="http://www.vogue.fr/">French Vogue </a></i>would not have been the same without her. Roitfeld's first cover (as EIC, in which she also styled), was of Kate Moss, shot even then by Mario Testino, for the February 2001 issue. while flipping through the editorial spread, Noir & Blanc, i couldn't help but notice how ahead of her time the styling was. so minimalist and modern, this easily could have been a February 2010 shoot. this just goes to show how talented Carine really is.<br /><br />"I had so much freedom to do everything I wanted. I think I did a good job." But she added, "When everything is good, maybe I think it's the time to do something else."<br /><br />Leaving while still on top, and with such style, Carine will be with the magazine until January 2011 (and in magazine time, that means she'll be overseeing up until the March issue).<br /><br />Whatever she decides to do, I don't doubt it'll be innovative, inspiring, and unexpected -- much like her and her style.<br /><br />adieu, chérie!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
