Je t'aime ... moi non plus...




Serge Gainsbourg's famous yet unusual line,
"Je t'aime ... moi non plus", which roughly translates
to "I love you... me neither"
is thought to refer to the distinction 
between physical pleasure and love.

He saw the first as something meaningful, 
but acknowledged that it often gets mistaken for the latter.

So it is quite fitting then 
that photographer Sebastian Kim's 
editorial of the same name
for Numero #132
would be erotically and sexually charged.




Model Kendra Spears 
is the picture of the expensive sophisticate,
as stylist Charles Varenne has her slip in and out
 of luxe wear from designers including
Armani, Akris, Gaultier, Chanel, 
Gucci and Calvin Klein,
while her naked lover keeps her company.

The Coveteur - Rachel Zoe

Today I am re-posting The Coveteur again,
this time their look at Rachel Zoe's fashion office.

Fashion stylists always have the most amazing lairs, 
full of exciting stuff. 

You gotta love having a sneak peak...



Fashion Offices With WhoWhatWear: Rachel Zoe

CEO, Rachel Zoe Inc. Los Angeles
 
Welcome to RZ HQ – the heart and Louboutin-sole of all things Rachel Zoe Inc.! We teamed up with our lovely friends at Who What Wear—once again!—to take you inside the holy grail of glamness, Zoe Headquarters.

While our “office” (a.k.a. other people’s closets) are always filled with rows upon rows of fab footwear, we couldn’t help but be completely sole-struck by the sea of shoes in Zoe’s bureau. I mean, we’ve all “seen” the inside of RZ HQ on the big screen—The Rachel Zoe Project is our #1 guilty pleasure—but, trust us, there’s a whole lot more to that office you haven’t seen. 

Her L.A. loft has played host to the industry’s best actresses (we’re looking at you, Annie!) and accesszoeries (the bags were BA-NA-NAS!) 
We died for Zoe’s vintage archives and ashtray collection—but, seriously, would you expect any less from the Queen of Decades? 

From the branding office to Zoe’s personal workspace, we got deep inside Team Zoe's wondrous workshop. And there’s plenty of creative juices flowing out of this fashion factory: Style advice from A to Zoe, our daily dose of inbox pleasure, The Zoe Report, a thriving clothing and accessories line and much more. 

All we can say is that it’s a good thing she’s got Camp Zoe (or Zoe-bots, as we like to call ‘em) behind her—headed up by prez, hubby (and our BFF) Rodg—to help crank out one glam project after another. And with that, we give you, Zoe Headquarters... where the magic happens!



This is where the magic happens! My branding office is where I spend most of my time in meetings for my collection and designing.

An aerial view from the loft in my office overlooking the first floor. I love how open and airy the space feels - but also cozy, because I want all of our visitors to feel at home.



 A peek into my office of vintage archives, aka, my second closet! It is the greatest source of inspiration when designing new looks. Reference the past to see what works and what doesn’t.

 OMG shoes! People ask me if I get desensitized seeing so many shoes every day, but I don’t think that’s actually possible.

I am an extremely organized person at work and at home - color co-ordination (especially in one’s closet) is everything.



 I am big on magazine tears for inspiration. I stick them all on these giant inspo boards in my branding office. I also spy a pair of my favorite vintage Chanel sunnies in the mix - who is more inspiring than Coco?
 Sunglasses, Vintage Chanel

Obsessed with this vintage mirrored coffee table! Mirrors in every form instantly add glamour to any home or office setting.
