Nostalgia


What do you miss from France?

I’ve been always asked that’s question


Expat feeling maybe

So my answer....


Reading my Elle on Friday night with Mariage Frere tea: World can collapse itself, DO OT DISTURB ME F***








Shopping monthly (or weekly) at Comptoir, Sandro, Maje, Ba&Sh, and make angry  my banker



Monoprix, what a great French concept (do not laugh at me, I know you what you think about it)


Opera Ave by morning, noon, evening, night, I love so much this place



Vogue issues (not costing $16)


Drive along the seafront, for long hours, alone, with sunshine and music


Jap restaurant in Washington stret, my jap headquarters


Concord place, paved place, yes paved! Lights, cars, honks, the noooiiis, the heart of Paris


“Le Grand Journal”, Denisot, Yann, Yann, Yann



“Sentier des douaniers”, Binic, 4ever, one of my little paradise on this earth


Chanel nail polishes, €24


Tuileries Garden, 5.45PM, my seat, 2nd central fountain, in front of Concord and Arc of Triumph


Bjorg French vanilla soya milk


Parisian metro sound on leaving (yes, I am serious)



True carrots salad


L’édition speciale (yes, I am a big fan of Canal + channel)


Vendome, 6.30PM in August for wonderful pics




Nuxe products……. All their products


My SQUARE pillow


St Germain, on Friday night, rue de Buci, w/ friends


Telematin, 7AM with cynical William (no, I am not 70)


Amber and berries Dyptique candels









Guerlain perfume costing less than $215 (from now on, I get why so many tourists buy at least 5 perfume bottles during their trip)




Courcelles, Monceau on Sunday, next a brunch at “La Bastide Blanche” (the best in Paris)


Learning new streets names just to say, yes, I know them by heart (fortunately, Downtown exists in NYC) and street with painters and writers, and this typical blue


Rue du temple, le centre du Marais from dance classes


Repetto flat shoes, rue de la paix







No, I am not crazy, go living abroad ‘n U’ll get it!!!


Anyway, NYC is great

Scarfs, stoles & co



One of my favorite fashion accessorize, apart from bags, shoes and sunglasses (hum) are scarfs.


Easy to wear, a touch of colors in your look, to protect yourself from the cold, to convert it in belt

headband, bracelet,  bow on your purse: it a chameleon accessorize!


Thousands of possibilities

My favorites

Obsessions




Yes, it is true, everybody can assert it.


When I have an idea, I am totally obsessed by it and I become totally stubborn (no, I am a stubborn girl I confess)


Last month it was burgundy shirt, I got it

Black ankle boots, I found them

Grey skirt, I bought it..


But desires are similar to a well without end, aren’t they?


Anyway


Now I want a black cape coat (yes, I love so much black, it’s not a depressed color, it’s chic – nuance) 

with sunglasses it creates a beautiful figue, look Mary-Kate

“So 2010” I can hear you …. I don’t care!!


beautiful cut


 I want it, as much I want a grey dress, but with a boat collar, 

thick but not a lot, with a good length.



Complicated?

No demanding – that’s the difference

Fashion week Paris – 4th part



Chloe



One of my favorite “maison”: Clare Waight Keller, succeeding to Hannah McGibbon, succeeded her 

interpretation of Chloe codes: freshness, femininity and modernity.


One of the major trend as for Clare: the pleated clothes, especially for long veiled skirts – in peach and 

beige hues, with this special fluidity in clothes – a feature belongs to Chloe figures.

Fashion week Paris – 3rd part



Chanel


Karl has a gift to change Le Grand Palais and to make us travel through his inspiration.


As usual, such amazing show!  Seashells, hot waters, the little mermaid world appears!


Pale green, pearls, embroidery, glittered jackets remind us tortoiseshells of a mermaid, seashells 

embroidered on clutches, flowers and lace,  plastic transparency, pearly jackets, heels made with coral...

Plactic and jewelry what such a good idea!!


A wonderful world
