Paris market has been a wonderful whirlwind of market appointments, long dinners, and late nights (a more complete post to follow). Amidst the hard work & play we’ve gotten to visit with a number of our international ‘fashion friends’, including the adorable Melodi (a buyer at Instanbul’s incredible department store, Beymen, which stocks Celine, Proenza Schouler, Marni, Lanvin and the like).

We caught up with Melodi last night at Hotel Amour, a lovely hotel and restaurant in the 9th:

Melodi always knows the latest on what’s cool (after all, she has Alber Elbaz’s recent performance at the Lanvin show recorded first-hand on her iPhone, and was wearing Maison Michel hats long before I’d ever heard of the brand), so I was interested when she  introduced me to the ultra-chic, Turkish online magazine: www.blank-mag.com:

My favorite part about Blank? That Melodi’s in it! Check her out here, sharing some of her favorite things (Woody Allen & Acne wedges), showing off her elegant “Love” tattoo, and sporting some Lizzie Fortunato (the brown elastic “Desert Bracelet”):

We adore hôtel Amour, and Melodi even more!
