Retro in the streets



Hello Dears !

Weather is going crazy here, sun is shining until nearly november ... World's end is coming soon i suppose ! Haha, didn't wanted to freak you out -oops- so I enjoyed this sunny day to show off this little found from LindyBop.
I don't wear a lot of reproduction of vintage dress but this one actually made me very happy when I found it. I like its simple fitted line and the details downwards with the opening on the white colour.



Dress from LindyBop
Bag (thrift)
Shoes from New Look (see Tartan look!)

Pere Lachaise et bleu layette


Hello Dears,
I hope you're all fine. It's finally summer in Paris and Parisians are avoiding their town ...
I feel like the roads are often empty it's weird, but it makes me want to go on holiday too now !
With my girls we're gonna plan a little trip in the South of France; and I've never been there so I'm pretty thrilled!
I want the sea, the shorts, the outfits you never get to wear in Paris because you're always "doing something", I want my feet in sandals I want no schedules I want to wake up when I wish to.
I know it's temporary and that makes it even more enjoyable , don't you think ?

My girlfriend already spent two weeks in the south with her family , I was afraid of being without her that long but it went okay; so that comforts me for the next step ... She's going away for a month in Isreal: a month !
I'll try to stay pretty active to make it less painful haha (wish me luck!)





outfit:

Dress from Mad Vintage
Bag (old thrift)

Salon du Vintage Paris ; March 1016



 Hello Dears,
Let me introduce you to my Mom !
Haha. Last week end there was the "Salon du  Vintage" taking place in le Marais.
And on this very sunny sunday I told my mom to drop by and come to see me (as far as I knew , she was drilling to see me for a few days after my recovery) and here we were : heading to something vintage related of course.
I tend not to shop too much , cause of course this is one of my vices ... So I was pretty tamed, and only get a seahorse inclusion (love this type of stuff not really useful in my room) and a vintage jean jacket, in fact there is the name of the kid that owned it (yes I bought a very tiny jacket: me realizing haha thats why the jacket is cropped!).
My Mom bought herself a very lovely Guy Laroche tweed like jacket , very cool on her, all purplish.

It was fun !



(I had a crush on this vintage Dior skirt ... But the price wasn't for me!)







We did enjoyed a lil' Baileys too! 
Yummy

That colour, between Sky and Earth.


Hello Dears , as you start knowing me you should know that I love mixing items, and stuff that doesn't really belong together. I always tend to have some kind of harmony, and atmosphère though, but I like to prove that There is no Only Rockabilly in the Vintage Mood.
I wear this 60s jacket, which is why its not at all fitted around my waist not as a 50s jacket, but I like how its large and then melt on my hips and skirt.
Of course, its not the slimmest silhouette I could create but I love the combo of it.
I also add this little 50s , stewardess style hat, which I found fantastic as it reminds me something more oriental.
I Will end on mentionning the shoes and socks which are my mark of the 90s...

 
A bit like a following to my last article, I wanted to keep the veggies among us and theme around this bag With fake fruits. Makes me want to picnic like when I was a kid, even my butt was always itching While I sat on the grass ! So I Finally mixde it With the buildings (lovely ones) you can discover in Tiny lanes in Paris.
