PS11 : I Love you

· Fashion

I broke the bank last week. I wanted it for a while, was going for the brown but the tan was the obvious choice. But in the end I invested in the beautiful red in the mini version and I am delighted with it: the size is perfect, it is chic but not posh: ideal. … Read more

Le bonheur est à Petit-Brens

· Fashion, Travel

As I may have told you, last week I spent a weekend with family, far from the city, in a farm we have rented out for the 11 of us there, in Petit-Brens (in the Ain department). It was my first time in the area, and I loved it. The weather wasn’t really compliant, but … Read more

Beaune stopover

I’m back from a long weekend spent with family in the countryside, far from the city. And I have to admit, it feels great to be out where it’s so peaceful and quiet, surrounded by loved ones! It was a long car trip, so we it was an opportunity to stop in Beaune, Burgundy. I … Read more

Look & Shopping in Brussels

· Fashion, Travel

Today I’ll share my good shopping addresses while showing you an outfit that I wore during our weekend in Brussels (and that, comfortable as it was, was perfect for a shopping spree).

Badge Douze Août Breton shirt “Play” Comme des Garçons (déjà vue ici) Last days of vacation often mean … shopping! Shopping in the chic area of Ginza isn’t really the best deal in town, but we hadn’t been during our first trip. Ginza is the equivalent of the Champs Elysées (even though the latter is … Read more

Childish

Haha! I could nit-pick all day on the arrival of pool side sandals on our city streets… Because today I come forth to you “German” style, with wooden clogs and socks. I know that wearing socks with sandals or court shoes makes most people wince but I have to admit that I’ve always quite liked … Read more

Day 14 : Our ryokan in Ise

· Fashion, Illustration, Travel

And we’re back on the train on our way to Ise, in the province of Mie. Tokyo or Osaka‘s modernity and turmoil seem so far away! All the more so with our lodging choice for this stop: a traditional inn (=ryokan) called Hoshidekan. I had never tried this type of housing during my previous stay, … Read more

Contrary to the « pool flip flops » trend, I am much more into the « sneakers worn with city clothes » trend. As you already noticed with my New Balances or other Converses. Another target that I have been having my eye on for a long time: the very (too much?) popular Stan Smiths. … Read more

We left Nagoya very early to take the train (yummy bento for breakfast! hehe) and headed for Takayama to enjoy its spring festival for the day (the festival lasts 2 days: on the 14th and 15th of April). This festival (more commonly called « matsuri ») is one of the most popular festivals in Japan … Read more

Day 11 : Osaka DenDen Town

The tour of Osaka goes on! If you are an Otaku (a fan of the Japanese culture of video games and manga) or a Geek, or even both, I think you will like this post. I am a bit of all that, even if I have tempered my ardor with time. I am not really … Read more
