Halloween may not be a huge deal in France as it is in America, but the French don't joke around--I've got a found-day weekend, no school until Wednesday! I'm off to Deauville tomorrow and in the spirit of all things French and chic, I'm channeling a '90s DKNY vibe: no shoulders.

parisian romance by ohcourant featuring AdoreMe



I'm not usually a big matching-set kind of girl, but I love the selection at AdoreMe lingerie. It's a company that overs a wide-range of sizes without losing any of the femininity. There's really something for everyone!

America, you have one day left to shop the secret AcneArchive online sale. I'm losing sleep over the gorgeous pair of Bordeaux "Jensen" boots that I missed out on.


Don't make my mistake, kids.

For those of you living under a damn rock, Michelle Obama just stepped out in a rose-gold chain mail dress custom-made by Versace Atelier for her last ever State Dinner as First Lady First Fashionista. 

Yes and yes and yes and yeeeeessss.

Let's go back in time and review one of the most iconic materials to ever grace the runway. The year is 1982...

The famous title of "supermodel" had just become a thing, and France's future Première Dame was just a runway model with a penchant for chain-smoking and blunt bags. Kate and Naomi were forging a beautiful friendship over their shared height-issues.

Chain metal would be one of the signature looks of Gianni Versace's creations until his death in 1997. That July, he would send gold chain mail year down the runway in July, while Caroline Murphy would wear one of his creations to the Met Gala which honored him with a retrospective of his designs.


The fall/winter collection of 2012 brought back the chain-mail, in lighter silver tones.







Can we please look at sassy Lindsey Wixson here? Microbangs be damned, she looks great.

With only one week left until All Hallow's Eve, better known as Halloween for my anglophone friends, the time has come to channel your inner sorcière. Voici, a few crucial pieces to bewitch everyone you meet.

the witching hour

Off-the-shoulder slinky dresses give you more room to work with and show off an epic pair of tassel earrings, in the perfect spiced-pumpkin shade.

Vogue keeps preaching the benefits of fuzzy shoes, which gives me even more of a reason to splurge for these Alexander Wang sandals. They'll look great with a pair of sheer tights, which for me equals a year-round shoe. That's what they call a practical purchase.

Weaning myself off of coffee on the weekends is going....not as well as expected. It's sunday evening which means I'm binging watching television shows and scrolling through the internet.

Café Oberkampf in the 11e has a charming décor and will not yell at you if you spill all over their tables. Score!






































Take time to slow down. Why aren't you watching Fleabag yet? Or Fresh Off the Boat, for that matter? If you were, you'd know that Constance Wu has the voice of an angel.
