Guten Tag

With no lederhosen to be found in my closet, I improvised to create this particular outfit. After a night dancing away to Flogging Molly, I couldn't bring myself to wear heels:

Shawl, necklace, & blouse: vintage from my mom's closet; sweater: Arancrafts via eBay; purse: vintage Coach via Encore; thrifted shorts, via Encore, scarf from Comptoir Irlandais in Dijon, France; Clarks desert boots

Guten tag, or the German schoolboy, as my boyfriend puts it. My response?



Yes. Man Repelling one pair of flat desert boots at a time.







I have also started playing with a tripod and remote control. These pictures are the result.


I also like to pretend that the lamp is my studio lighting. I suppose I feel the need to show you all the different light, hence the 10 photos. I swear.


Today we saw German documentarist Werner Herzog's latest film, Into the Abyss. The world always seems a bit different walking out of one of his works and this was no exception.

I hope you had a lovely weekend, here's to an easy start to another week. Gros bisous.

Earlier this summer, I invested in a pair of Clarks Classics, knowing I would not last an hour in those über-cute heeled desert boots.  Though Seychelles does a great version of desert boots by Chloé that I lusted after last year.

The Clarks are pretty comfy, yet I am still trying to figure out ways to wear them!  A preference: layered over skinny jeans or tights with higher socks.

This is one of my inspirations:

So blatantly French, she balances chic with comfort sans effort (effortlessly).  

From my maman's closet, I have been wearing this scarf frequently and waiting for cooler days to start wearing this hat.  

Any shoe styles that have caught your fancy this season?  I would love to hear from you!
