Dungarees of the fields

Wed 10 Jun, 2015 · Fashion

This week will definitely be a “dungarees” week because I move on with a second look in this theme but in a more relaxed look, more “dungarees of the fields” if you want… (fields is a big word because I wore this outfit to take a stroll in the jardin d’acclimatation).

The best thing about dungarees, is really the comfort (except when we have to do a little pit stop “you know where”).
But you still need to make sure you feminise it a little (more than the previous that was more chic) so you can avoid to be asked if the painting job for your little one’s bedroom is going well.

So proceed with extreme caution, lovely ladies… (English translation by TradIsa)

My 2015 Dungarees edition

Mon 8 Jun, 2015 · Fashion

The dungarees, this cloth sometimes under-rated because often deprived of glamour (probably Mario Bros’s fault), I have always loved it but the short-legs version.

This year, I decided to invest in a pants version since the Parisian weather keeps playing the fool, there are more chances to wear long-legs pants than shorts.

So here is my 2015 dungarees edition, so comfy (thanks to the elastane) that you will most probably have a few more occasions to see it in my future outfits this summer !

Far from the madding crowd

I like to share all types of things I enjoy here, movies included, as you may have noticed here, here or there.

I really like to “debrief” a movie directly after having seen it … for this one, that I saw about a month before it officially came out in theaters, I couldn’t discuss it with anyone (it was a screening for the press, I couldn’t really see myself having such a girly-powered animated conversation with the journalists seated next to me).

But now that you can go see it yourselves, we can talk! As usual, I’d advise not to watch the trailer.

If you want to know what it’s about, let’s just say that it takes place during the victorian era, in the english countryside, and that it recounts the life of a young woman (Carey Mulligan) at the head of a family farm. Not quite fascinating so far, except perhaps if you’re really into sheep farming.

She’s surrounded by quite a few male specimens (of unequal charisma and charm), which gives for rather tumultuous love stories, meaningful glances, suppressed passion … something of a “pride and prejudice” without Colin Firth, but with a rather convincing Matthias Schoenaerts.

I did really want to give Carey (or her character, Bathsheba Everdene) a good shake from time to time during the movie, but I won’t say more. Come back once you’ve seen it, and we can talk about it here!

This movie, based on a novel by Thomas Hardy, isn’t perfect (we can talk about that too, but I don’t want to say too much too early on!) but for the romantic in me, it made my little sensitive heart flutter for 2 hours. (English translation by Bleu marine)
