flashes of color and hopes of summer

i can hear the insects beginning to chirp, the sun is getting warmer, my sleeves are getting shorter and the holidays are coming closer. i cannot wait to bask in the lazy summer afternoons, reading books and sipping at ice cold apple juice. the days of dresses, of parks and the seaside; where my soul forever lives, waiting for julys.

J'Adore Charlotte Gainsbourg

Cette fille est chic, classique et fantastique! Sa mode est tres belle. Le fusion de ses cheveux et ses yeux et sa mode, oh lala. Absolutement parfait. Et biensur j'adore sa musique. IRM est la nouvelle album et mon chanson preferee est Le Chat Du Cafe Des Artistes... ou peutetre Me and Jane Doe. Tous les deux sont magnifiques. Donc j'ai décidé de lui rendre l'hommage! Qu'est-ce que vous pensez? Écoutez de sa musique si-vous plaittt!

Darling Sunshine

Today was a gorgeous day, finally! My darling sunshine I really have missed you. However it was a bit too chilly to put on anything in this category. In the spirit of summer fashion desires, I decided to show a little bit of my wardrobe. I cannot wait to wear these when it gets warmer because they are so tempting!

L'anticipation d'e'te'

one word. ADORE.

Deutsch Vogue

I recently found out that I will be heading over to Germany this summer. Yay! So I thought I would dedicate a post to the wonderful Deutsch Vogue. Because it truely is an inspiration. Hopefully while I'm there I can take a look around the streets of Munich and pick up a few pieces. Cannot wait, July 12th I await you eagerly.

As it is.

David Hamilton Nostalgia

David Hamilton's beautiful and sensual photography shows such a sophisticated eroticism that is almost extinct in the tasteless media ruled world we live in today. The gentle femininity of this collection provides such a fairytale atmosphere, and the clothes are simply exquisite.

Permanent Vacation S/S 2010

I couldnt resist, this is an absolutely wonderful collection. The nostalgic southern feel is what I really want to channel when it starts to get warmer. I can't believe it's almost May and yet it still feels like January. Please please please warm up soon Osaka!

The Essence of Bali

Dreams of Chanel

I recently bought myself a pair of classic Chanel earrings that I've been dying for since forever ago and they are lovely. So I decided to dedicate a post to a few Chanel loves of mine. I prefer the classic styles however I am absolutely captivated by the Paris-Shanghai Collection, the luxury, indulgence, rich redness and texture just amaze me. I've never been a great fan of red but I gave in and also found a patent red Chanel wallet which I actually adore. Although I am incredibly proud of my first 'red' purchase, I'm not sure if I can take the next step and wear something red. Stay tuned because I may become adventurous.

Nostalgic Summer

Ahh R&R. This vintage floral is one of my absolute favorites. Another one of my wardrobe staples are my black gladiators, couldn't live without them in summer.

Such a hot day, and I was determined to soak up all the sun.

Burberry sunglasses made it all the better.

Just returned from Bali,

Had an absolutely lovely time,

the colors & the sunshine amazed me.

Sand and Sun

I'm loving cardigans, especially big grandpa ones like this.

Paired with the right outfit, they make an outfit more casual without

sacrificing it's chic. Again, adoring purple at the moment.

Purple is the Color of Emotion

Love this thrifted dress,

japanesque vintage on a hot summers day.
