Need a little lift?

The weather is so sad today in Montreal that I decided to post lots of color to cheer myself up!  I hope it will do the same for you!

I just found out an interesting piece of fashion news:

Jane Birkin Auctioned Off Her Namesake Hermès Bag for Charity!

The worn-in purse, which Birkin decorated with stickers and talismans from her travels, fetched £100,100 on eBay this weekend—or about $162,840 at the current exchange rate, and all of the proceeds will go to the Red Cross.

 Who knew a bag was worth so much?

New Lady Dior Campaign

Someone at Dior is coming up with major fabulousness.

Dior just unveiled its new campaign for the Lady Dior Bag, a four part series with Marion Cotillard, the Oscar winning actress. You can get a beind the scenes glimpse of the photo shoot with photographer Peter Lindbergh (with John Galliano proudly looking on) and an interview with Cotillard. This is the second Dior campaign in a month that I find truly impressive. No gimmicks, no nudity, no trash. Just pure French femininity.

The series will take place in four international cities. I wonder where to next? Rome? London? Can't wait to find out! I find Marion to be very elegant, gracious and chic. I really loved the dress she wore to the Cesar Film Award ceremony.
