Adoring: Sandals sporting crisscross applesauce aesthetics a la Diane von Furstenberg’s Ilias Strappy Sandals, Pelle Moda’s Crisscross Pumps in Black and Burlywood, and Tory Burch’s Stripe Elastic Strap Espadrille. Etre toujours mon Coeur! Corsets, corsets, and more corsets! Le Proenza Schouler Corset Wedge Sandals, Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent Corset Slip Dress, Rebecca Taylor Quilted Silk Corset Top…there is nothing so coquettish yet classy as a corset, n’est-ce pas? Styles that bring back the innocence of childhood known as…overalls! Oui, je suis obsédé! En haut de ma liste est...Factory by Erik Hart’s Sueded Twill Overalls with Front Zip, See by Chloe’s Chiffon Overalls, and American Apparel’s Thick-Knit Jersey High-Waist Cross-Back Short-All.

I simply cannot get enough of Susy Pilgrim Waters’ stunning illustrations. She has given me l'ultime case of wanderlust. L'amour, l'amour, l'amour! Wildfox’s Sparkle Heart Baggy Beach Top. Sweets? Non. Exotic getaways? Absolument pas! Diamonds? A l'avenir, peut-être. Presently, the true key to my heart is this very top. Pure bliss, mais oui? Besoin!

Quoting: Michelle Williams - “Water – I want to be like water; strong enough to hold up a ship but able to slip through your fingers.”

Awaiting: Revenge of the Witch (The Last Apprentice Series # 1) by Joseph Delaney, Mockingjay (Hunger Games Series # 3 by Suzanne Collins, and The Initiation and The Captive (Part 1) (Secret Circle Series # 1 – 2) by L.J. Smith. Oui, I needed a few new bookie-wookies to add to le ever-burgeoning collection. A girl can never be without reading material, n’est-ce pas?

But enough about moi; let’s talk about…vous. Time to give me the lowdown on your life, lovers! What are you up to this week?


Fashionably yours!

  1. Love that movie, what a classic ... Can't we all use a fun day off like that every now and then, with someone take attendance wherever we should be, but we're off doing our own thing ... Good times.

  9. I remember seeing Michelle Williams say that on "Nightline." It's one of the best quotes ever. I miss overalls more than anyone, and I'm adoring my iPod right now because it holds my music and music are the keys to all of my great ideas. Hope you have a great day, E. :)

  32. Sizzling hot chocolate

    A snowfall
    winter in paris
    chocolate chaux en hiver
    ballet slippers hanging from
    the ballet bars
    a grammophone left playing
    while no ones in the room.

    thanks.

  47. I'm wearing faded blue Levi straight leg jeans, T-Shirt, with one of my anodised cuffs and ring. Doesn't sound quite as classy as your outfit!
    I'm currently reading Stephen King's "Full Dark, No Stars". I agree we need plenty of reading material!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Alas, I arrive at your blog first thing this morning for a cup of fashion jo, and while still waking up, come across the reference to Ferris. And. His famous day off. Fun, but bad influence. But while it's under your stylish influence, it's all good :)
