The return of the knee high boots

· Fashion

You haven’t seen those in 4 years: do you remember them? I had kept them in my closet, wearing them on rare occasions, but with the Sixties coming back in full force this season, it was the perfect time to get them out again (we can say what we want, but we totally absorb everything we see in magasines, internet and commercials, and I’m certainly not spared in that matter).

I drew inspiration from outfits I had pinned to create this outfit (yet another breton striped top!) with clothes I’ve had for quite some time (except for the trench, I got it this autumn).

Making new with the old, I love it! (…at least I do with clothes, for when it comes to DIY and handywork, I’ve got two left hands!) (English translation by Bleu Marine)

5 ways to wear leather pants

· Fashion, Illustration


Last time, I had made you a list of 5 possible ways to wear a polka dot jacket. Today, I’m showing you different ways to wear a pair of slim cut leather pants!

Since I’ve had it in my closet, you may have noticed I’ve been wearing it every possible way: laid-back, boyish, feminine…it’s an item that goes with everything, and it’s comfy as can be (thanks to the stretchy fabric on the inside of the leg), I’m always up for it!

Which one is your favorite ?

Last time I had asked you to choose your favorite outfit: let’s see which one of those you like best! The one that wins the most votes will be added to the changing Tokyobibis you see on my side bar (have you noticed how she changes every time the page is refreshed?).

The rules are layed out, let’s see if you and I will agree on the best outfit! (English translation by Bleu Marine)

Tricolor Sailor Stripes

· Fashion

Stripy jerseys and me…I won’t repeat myself another time about how much I love them, you must very very aware if you follow this blog. I feel like I will never have enough of those stripes: the quest of a life.

 

The Petit Bateau + Cédric Charlier Collection

So, I was delighted to learn that Petit Bateau, a brand that is very present in my wardrobe, was going to come up with a one off collection from a Belgium designer that I am very fond off, Cédric Charlier. I like his universe both graphic and full of colours (I actually have two jackets that I cherish when the weather gets warmer).

This new collaboration stays true to its style and it’s what I like: he found a way to divert the boating stripy top by cutting into it graphic tricolour stripes. The collection is made of dresses, trouser and sweatshirts, all of it in the same thinking of the “jostled” stripe.

Dress or sweatshirt ?

Petit Bateau asked me to choose my favourite piece of the collection : I hesitated but in the end, I let myself be tempted by the sweatshirt, easier to mix with other outfits.

Today, I am wearing it with a pair of large trousers and trainers but I imagine it would be paired very well ma Carven x Petit Bateau dress or my stripy skirt for a all for one effect. Tips and tricks! (English translation by TradIsa) (Post in collaboration with Petit Bateau)
