love love love Carine!

great style, very simple and chic

also, i love how it looks like she takes about 10 seconds to pick her outfits out. I imagine her having a closet with a hundred black pencils skirts and fifty short sleeve black t-shirts and fifty long sleeve black t-shirts that are all perfectly fitting and then, 10 huge furs and fantastic shoes/bags and that she just puts everything in rotation because it will always look great

^^ I agree.
She's smart. To me she's what the french call "jolie laide" yet she makes the most of her features and I think she usually looks great. However, when I was looking at the pics of her style.com I realized that she wears a ton of fur and I must say that was a real turn-off for me.

She's an interesting woman, I love the unkempt glamour. I agree she's very much the 'jolie laide'.

They're from style.com and they were taken backstage (and front row) at Max Mara, Fall 2005, Ready-to-Wear.

yes, the ton of fur was an off-turn for me, too.
actually i like this "tired" look of hers....she is not as polished as many others.
the 5th outfit in mercedes' last post is something that i like.

I like the tired look too . She probably works really hard and she wears it like badge. It suits her and goes well with her slightly unkempt style.

She's not gorgeous but she has an interesting intelligent look.

^ I agree! Anyway, the polished look is so boring. Also, she remindes me a bit of Patti Smith sometimes...
