Parlez Vous Le Francais?


So I've been obsessing over the French lately.  As I was saying in my last post.  Coincidentally, months ago, I bought a dress, this dress, last minute from Asos.com.  
I was in terrible need for a frock fit for an evening cocktail/soiree/afterwork event and when I tried it on - it made me weak in the knees.  So chic, no?

Sadly, I haven't had the need to wear it again...  But it's such an amazingly designed dress that it will always have room in my Tiny Closet - even if I only wear it once a year.  It also goes perfectly in line with my new Serge Gainsbourg obsession and my love for French style.  Quite perfectly!  And as you already see,  I am still riding out this wave.


I used to live two blocks from this beautiful cafe.  I thought it would be the perfect place to play dress up, take some photos, and briefly act out my fantasy of being a mysterious, chic French woman having espresso and a cigarette.   And yes, my lungs were slightly harmed in the making of this post.  C'est la vie.


This merlot lip color, I've had for ages.  It's by M.A.C. and it's a matte finish if you're curious.  Unfortunately, the name of this color has long faded and I can't remember what it's called :(
