I thought that I would weigh in on the subject.
I am not a big fan of glamour because I believe that above all it is built on artifice.
Take most film stars and celebrities. Can they even be described as glamorous if in actuality they rely entirely on stylists to put together their public looks?
So instead I look for elegance and accomplishment.
Yesterday I was very pleased to spend several hours with Lorenz Baumer, who is the epitiome of both elegance and accomplishment.
Like this
and this
and a little bit in love with him too because he was so elegant in that unique way that french men are.
And accomplished.
Next month he is going to receive the Legion D'Honneur in Paris.
So check out his website and the next time that you are in Paris, be sure to visit his boutique.

Wow, gorgeous! And the jewelry too... ;-)
Pseu: You would have enjoyed seeing his pieces. They were so creative.
I love a huge sparkly ring. I endorse glamour but not the 'sleb red carpet artificial stuff- the real deal Old School well groomed type. My late Grandma was very Galmorous xx
I have been ooh-ing and ah-ing over that LV piece in the mags. It is SO beautiful. So beautiful.
Dear Belle, I am in love with his pieces too!
I love glamour but I'm with FF I like the old school type xx
Oh, my, my, my. . . I'm with you.
Now I'm thinking, "Do I have enough gasoline to drive to the Place Vendome?" (Actually I have enough to get there, but maybe not back home and there is another massive demonstration today.)
I'll just look at what you've posted and fantasize. What incredible talent.
BTW, you're absolutely right about BHL, My-Reason-For-Living-In-France said to me, "Tell me you didn't."
When you have a spare moment, please e-mail me. I long to hear about where you lived -- and maybe more.
It makes my day to see your visits.
Warmest regards,
Tishxo
