It has been so exciting since last week to wait for the first day of the week to start. Yay for Sunday and it being a sunny day! (silly pun intended, so sue me, haha).
And so, it is suitable to begin the challenge this way. This Sunday is a day of pleasure reading, writing, jotting down ideas in a cafe, and chilling with my brother. I can't wait to hunt down [another] perfect cashmere scarf, the perfet pair fur/shearling-lined boots and the all weather botinnes. The botinnes must be low enough to work in the warmer months but comfortable enough for the winter. I will be hunting for a pair with a smaller but not too pointy toe, I like the length that the pointed streamlined silhouette would create but want the comfort of a round-toe. They must be somewhat classic, not noticeably trendy, high quality leather, beautiful but effortless. After all, these would fill the hole for those ultra-versatile, low-heeled bottines.
Have a beautiful Sunday, mes chers!

Gorgeous. It's wonderfully casual, yet SO chic! I love what you've done with the scarf; I sometimes do that pirate up-do in the car in the summer. You look far more effortlessly elegant in it than I ever do! Your first outfit is a raging success!!
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing what botinnes you choose. I was looking a few days ago, but didn't find anything. We'll see!

Oooh what a fun outfit!!
ReplyDeleteI haven't actually worn the shoes out yet, but I'll let you know how they are when I do :D

@ Aesthetic Altertations,
ReplyDeleteThanks! Haha, the scarf stays in place until the wind starts to hit it. The messier look is cooler, though. Oh summer!
I can't wait to see which ones you find!
@ Marielle,
ReplyDeleteThank you. I was very curious too, haha. I still am.

Thanks E and Amelie. =)
ReplyDelete@ E... I never saw this look as "ethnic" but the bright colors do remind me of the sea and fruits. I can only wish my style could approximate some exoticism to lend if only a barely perceptible dose of imagination-capturing mystery. Hah, I wish.
@ Amelie Oh, i love this long shirt. It is one of my favorites and i can only wish to get another because i will miss it once it is finally worn to shreds (which, at this rate, will be very soon).
@ E... and Amelie: You are so lovely!
@ Amelie, It is such
So chic! The gather at the back of the shirt is such a simple but striking detail. I think I'm going to be thoroughly inspired by your project.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for stopping by my blog :)
I love the pop of color that the scarf adds to the outfit!
