Casual Friday

Posted on April 9th, 2010 in Fashion

Thank goodness it’s Friday. Best of all I got a cute cute new shirt to wear and some good plans! Two classes, then a free afternoon hopefully on the Champ de Mars because it is very sunny right now, and then seeing Mélanie Laurent in a play with my petit copin tonight. It’s going to be a good day. If you want to get pumped up for the weekend this is the anthem…

My new shirt is from none other than my favorite Suncoo that I talk about all the time! I’m also rocking this retro side swept hair lately, what do you think?

These jeans are by The Kooples and they are a light wash with a pretty slightly pink tint to them. The comfy and airy boyfriend fit and the color is perfect for spring.

It has a pretty woven pattern and then drapes down the arm.

I got this clutch for my birthday from my mom It’s vintage 60’s and comes from a very very very cool and accomplished friend of ours. I hope all her success will carry on to me through this bag!

I’ve got some spring time polish on, Miami Peach by Chanel.

This shirt is so soft you have no idea. I am a sucker for soft materials, which is why my place is filled with faux fur pillows and blankets.

Sofia got a bunch of studs which we have been miscellaneously placing on items including my jeans here.

These shoes are by LF and studded in gold and silver. So cool and super comfortable they were a great buy and are on their last leg now…no pun intended.

Yes, I really am that excited it is finally the weekend. Some weeks are just harder than others…

Posted on March 12th, 2010 in Fashion

By the end of the winter I am in my annual fashion rut with worn out shoes, pilled sweaters, and dirtying coats. I have to confess I have been rather unglamorous with my get ups lately. However seeing as yesterday was a very special occasion, I decided to make an extra effort. I got all dolled up to take my momma out to her birthday dinner and she was kind enough to take some photos of me here in our apartment in Cannes.

I wore two necklaces she has given me, one which I received for my 21st birthday, and the second this past Christmas.

The long string necklace is made of aqua marine beads and a gold dos pesos piece my mom had for many years. The charm ring on the strand of pink pearls has a collection of charms she hand picked at a jewelry show. Our dear friend Carla lent her skills and creativity to helping make our design ideas a reality.

Worn with: H&M silk dress and Zara tuxedo jacket….

…and of coarse my favorite Chie Mahara russian doll booties and my Tabio heart tights that seem to always find their way into my posts on the blog.

I love the way the silk dress drapes and gathers in the back.

Happy Birthday Momma!
