I particularly like the month of August in Paris because the calm reigns in the capital. The only downside is that my favorite restaurants are closed but let’s say that it gives me some motivation to cook!

I won’t have any vacations (I don’t mind travelling off-season) and, except a few weekends, August will be rather studious.

So I had the idea to go on holidays vicariously by imaging the content of a bag for a sea side trip.

What about you? Where will you spend your holidays? Come on, make me dream!

This year we can’t complain about not having a real summer season! As for me, any trick to stay cool and reveal the minimum skin possible (you know, to avoid getting tan) is welcomed:

So I opted this time for a long dress, in the same line as my large and flowing pants, perfect compromise between a cool and chic summer look and a minimal solar exposure. Happiness!
