Fashion week ended with my last show, Arzu Karpol and an unexpected call from Ana Burke; she asked me to work an additional day with the accessories in the Rick Owens’ showroom—a nice surprise! Arzu Kaprol’s work was stunning and looked gorgeous on the runway. The designer used common styles and added her own twist to make a refreshing presentation for spring 2012. My last look was a stunning evening gown, very fit for the Red Carpet. Since Fashion Week, I have been attending classes, and doing a little shopping. I have gotten into (an almost) daily routine of going to the Luxembourg Garden for a workout (3 or 4 miles worth)—something I hope to keep up when I move back home. This week, I toured Notre Dame. The cathedral is beautiful beyond words; the architecture is exquisite. Too bad, I didn’t notice (until I was already there) that I left my memory card in my computer—so I couldn’t take pictures. I will be going back for pictures before I leave. Last night, I went to Moulin Rouge. After dinner, we had a night tour of the city (Seeing the Eiffel Tower sparkle will never get old or any less exciting for me), and then we headed to the Red Light District for the show. The couple sitting behind Ash and me was from Long Island, New York, and they were hilarious. I felt like I had characters from the Sopranos giving a commentary the entire way (this only added to the experience). Once we arrived, we had to wait in a forever long line, but the show was well worth the wait. Moulin Rouge was a bit risqué but also sensational. I enjoyed the dancing and music; the costumes were amazing! I was also able to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower this week. I loved seeing the city from this angle at night. Words cannot describe the beautiful sights I have been able to see during this trip. Tomorrow I will be touring museums all day and hopefully finding room to squeeze in a little shopping. Next Wednesday, we are off to Barcelona to study Spanish fashion. I am beyond excited and so ready for another adventure!
P.S. I added a few of the photos taken during the presentation I took part in last month.
