Bourdelle and Balenciaga

Hello Dears,
a very easy post only to say that I went to this cool exhibition about the Black tone of Balenciaga's work. It was settled at le Musee Bourdelle Paris 15eme, which was the location of Antoine Bourdelle sculptures in the early 1900.
I ALWAYS  wanted to visit it , but as I'm way too much self-centered: going outside of my confort zone was a no thanks... But on Tuesday I went there with my new (perfect ?) girl and the weather was so nice, we really appreciated the moment.
I should note that this museum is for its biggest part of its art , outside. so if you don't know what to do and you want to see some art while the sun is shining: go on !
Apart from the exteriors which were splendid I thought; there are also some indoors rooms.
 The Balenciaga exhibition fitted so well inside one of them cause it was in the darkest room and the black tone of both works ... matched very well.

some lights playing on the blackness of the statues and the blackness of shades

so my girlfriend is only one big denim jacket as you can see haha

this was the most ancient costume of the exhibition , a theater dress robe of the 1940s 

Thats all for now !

Leaving you with the magnificent horse statues from Bourdelle

Hello Dears!

I melt two topics into one post today. 

First outfit, a mix of few vintage like (or real vintage) brands I love.

Again, this dress is usually worn with a petticoat but here I didn't wanted to put one, as I think you should see its natural shape, which is really a nice fit.

Only, I might add I forgot a belt.

Shouldn't tell, but I clearly see it's missing now ...

That little shop window is great antique , don't you think ?

Last vintage crush, What Katie Did. I started buying suspender belt and stockings at WKD because it is very good quality. I should do one special review on them soon cause they treat lingerie so well.

Stockings by What Katie Did.

Then, Second Outfit ! I wore a coral and white Fifties dress from HerNameisRita dressing (not creation) to my PressDay at the Balajo, Paris.

It always was a dancing place since 1935.

All wooden , they haven't change a thing inside and the disposition remains really retro.

Only the painting have been restored.

It was a meeting between bloggers , press and the Puppini Sisters.

I was delighted to meet Laurence and Sylvain from Lost in the 50s, who are really nice and interesting people to talk to... And the Puppini Sisters ! They were adorable.

I will prepare a little interview for you guys in a next post.

Hope you enjoyed both topics !

If you have any questions, project, collaboration let me know and ring the bell!

Hairstyle by Cherry Crown & Photos by Apolline Durouchoux

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.
