Karl Lagerfeld has chosen Tilda Swinton to be his heroine in the advertising campaign for the Pre-fall 2013 Métiers d’Art Paris-Edimbourg collection. Her unique personality, charisma and allure have charmed the House of CHANEL: “Tilda perfectly embodies the Paris-Edimbourg collection. She is of course Scottish, but more than that she is a modern woman, a timeless icon of elegance,” declared Karl Lagerfeld. Discover the campaign in May 2013.

Isn’t that photo just beautiful? What looks like a vintage ad from the house of Dior was just an embarrassing moment for Jennifer Lawrence, when she went on stage to accept her Oscar for Best Actress. She fell in her gorgeous Dior Couture gown but handled the situation so lovely: “You guys are just standing up because you feel bad that I fell and that’s really embarrassing but thank you,” she stated when she finally made it to the podium.

How witty and funny she is, can you see in this little video when she is asked about her unfortunate stumbling:

A fall that makes us fall in love with her even more.

This was my outfit that I wore to the Pre-Oscar Charity Brunch hosted by Montblanc and UNICEF to celebrate the launch of their new ‘Signature For Good 2013‘ initiative with special guest Hilary Swank at Hotel Bel-Air Saturday morning.

Of course, the sun was shining in Los Angeles but temperatures were quite chilly so that I was very thankful to have brought something warm.
