obsession

Moop, Waxed Canvas Messenger.
Medium: Canvas.
but....
it wears like leather.
Beautiful.

I honestly don't know what I should do about the Tumblr/Blogspot dilemma.
Keep both up?
I guess that's what I'll have to do.

Avery.

vaux le vicomte.
beauty.
We visited Versailles before Vaux le Vicomte and oh boy.
Versailles was just a little bit overdone. 
I know that Napoleon needed to impress everyone but come on.
Stealing Fouquet's architect, landscaper and then putting the poor guy in jail?
Getting back to the point. :) haha
Vaux le Vicomte was exquisite.
They lit the whole place with candles at night! 

The chica below is Avery. Adore her!


Jameel

My first collage! I know... It's not very impressive. 
But hey! Guess what is?
His outfit!
This is Jameel. He performs spoken poetry and knows the streets of Le Marais like no other.

Welcome to.... Paris

The author of the food blog, Chocolate and Zucchini, gave a presentation in Paris. It gave me so much more motivation!
I'll have to take a photo of my Moleskin to show you the notes I took.
I've decided that I want to put more of my opinion in this. Like what I like and what I think about current trends going on at school or my current city.
For now, I 'm not sure if it's just a French thing but....
striped shirts. the sailor kind.
the blue and white striped kind. 
I have honestly seen so many girls wearing these shirts!
Well. This is my friend Julia!

She's modeled for Urban Outfitters and she's also been featured in Italian Vogue along with other esteemed publications. 

(Ray Ban sunglasses, Urban Outfitters shirt and cardigan, Aqua leggings, Bensimon shoes, Juicy Couture earrings, necklace made at a boutique in Brooklyn)

Trip to Hèrmes

We went to a terrific event at the Hèrmes in Paris.
They brought the artisans who create the Hèrmes products and we got to talk to them about how each item was made.
