The minimalistic chic is a trademark of French sophistication. Somehow they manage to create this unmistakably French, fabulous flair with neutral colors, simple silhouettes and perfect accessories.
GAP did the perfect rendition of the French minimalistic chic with their American in Paris Boys Collection, infusing French signature neutrals with a laid-back, devil-may-care American attitude.
Grey, black and navy dominate this collection with the occasional splashes of red and delicate whisper of vintage light beige. Gray is an ultimate “IT” color of the season. Gray is a new black, the new cool, the cool neutral and it certainly is a cohesive element of this collection.

The Style Sensation – Outfit Breakdown
Being Bloomingdale’s Premier Insider certainly has its benefits, like the tickets to the private opening of the new Bloomy Store in brand new shopping Paradise - Santa Monica Place. The private opening, the day before the official opening also included receiving $25 gift card and a chance to win a $1000 shopping spree. Naturally, I was a game.
Located just two blocks from the beach in the heart of beautiful Santa Monica, the brand-new Santa Monica Place boasts an impressive list of retailers and restaurants that are one-of-a-kind and tried-and-true, all brought together in a 3-tier open-air shopping and dining mega-destination.
I am sure you remember Fore Axel &Hudson, whose golf inspired debut collection was so explosively and sensationally successful. Starved for the creative and stylish boys’ clothes, we drooled over sumptuous golf carts, balls and clubs, reinvented in witty prints, vibrant colors, contrasting trims, knockout hats and huge buttons. We’ve instantly become FA&H hardcore fans, purchased whatever we could lay our hands on and naturally, held our breath in anticipation for their Fall Winter 2010 Collection. What this Wizard of clubs and balls had prepared for his loyal followers?

This blue-eyed, tousle-haired, singing-and-dancing phenom hardly needs and introduction. His dreamy Hotness, Zac Efron, an ultimate dream of adolescent girls across the planet Earth. Zacomania keeps spreading fast, and throngs of Zac-struck moms join their afflicted daughters in Efron worshipping. I've caught this powerful Zac bug myself ,when flipping through the channels one night I came across the cheeseball comedy 17 Again. Boy, I thought, this boy can act and boy is he cute! His impossibly stylish outfits and fabulous haircut didn't hurt either. So, when I read his interview in In Style magazine (August 2010 issue) I was pleasantly surprised to discover there was a serious style substance to this cuteness.
Here is an excerpt from his interview where he talks clothes and style.

While half the Earth is squirming in the grip of summer heat (100 degrees Fahrenheit in Moscow, hello!), I can’t help being in a winter mode with all these fabulous collections coming out. Child Mode, my indispensable children’s fashion resource/news feed run by an amazing Nadia Carriere does a wonderful job of covering latest and greatest fashion trends and brands in America, Europe and Asia and everywhere else in between. Thanks to her tireless efforts we get to know what’s cooking in the kids’ fashion kitchens of all kinds and colors. The majority of the clothes featured in this post might be well off our price range but as true stylistas we need to stay on top of the latest trends so we could style the perfect outfits for less.

I was rummaging through GAP’s discounted sleepwear online ($9.99 jammies, hello! Nothing of the sort is happening in the brick-and-mortar stores), when the sudden decision to check out the outerwear section brought this post to life.
