New episode of the “5 ways to wear…” series! After presenting the multiple possible ways to wear a Polka dot jacket, leather pants, let’s turn our intention to the large jeans, that I have qualified so far as ‘unidentified’ but I feel like now you recognize its shape (high-waisted, straight legs 7/8 cut). As weird … Read more
This week will definitely be a “dungarees” week because I move on with a second look in this theme but in a more relaxed look, more “dungarees of the fields” if you want… (fields is a big word because I wore this outfit to take a stroll in the jardin d’acclimatation). The best thing about … Read more
The dungarees, this cloth sometimes under-rated because often deprived of glamour (probably Mario Bros’s fault), I have always loved it but the short-legs version. This year, I decided to invest in a pants version since the Parisian weather keeps playing the fool, there are more chances to wear long-legs pants than shorts. So here is … Read more
Third day in Antwerp, I hope you are keeping up. En route to the Het Eilandje bordering the Escaut river. Let’s go sailor ! The MAS (Museuum Aan de Strom) I didn’t have time to visit this museum during my last trip : big mistake ! This one is brand spanking new (opened in 2011) … Read more
This time, no political campaign outfit but a more casual one for a Sunday walk. This grocery with the beautifully exposed stalls worth-ed to be immortalized with my almost matchy-matchy outfit (when do I start?). This almost-grocer flowing khaki coat is my last favorite one: I am a fan of the dripping shape and the … Read more
Today, a classic outfit I wore for a picnic at the ‘Parc de Sceaux’. Looking at the scenery, we could be in a shooting for an election campaign but my credibility as elected representative is diminished by this rip on my jeans and my holiday spirit espadrilles. As you can notice, as the years go … Read more
And we’re back with our 2nd day in Antwerp : the day’s program is packed with art. Museums generally open around 10am, which allows you to sleep in a bit and/or go for a late or extended breakfast. The Rubens House “Rubenhuis” The visit of the famous baroque painter Pierre Paul Rubens took up … Read more
Before getting back to my 3-day guide to Antwerp, here is the outfit I wore last Friday when we decided to visit the Vuitton Foundation with my friends. Some areas were exceptionally closed to public: bad luck! Therefore, we changed our program: the walk was supposed to be cultural but turned out into a 10-kilometer … Read more
Let’s get right to it: leave the oyster sheds behind and off to Antwerp we go (you can keep the bike though, it might come in handy!) I discovered Belgium through Antwerp a year or so ago, before exploring Gent, Brussels and Ostend: it’s a different type of charm every time, but I always enjoy … Read more
Let’s get on with the visit of The Arcachon Bay with a stop by the Cap Ferret. It was the very first time for me: even though I have been hearing about it for ages! Cap Ferret by boat We decided to access this little paradise with a boat from Arcachon. The boat-ride is … Read more
