Blue Vintage - Style Never Goes Out of Style


This post will just be about an outftit that I put together by going through my old stuff. And when I say old, this "skirt" is really, really old. This is actually a summer dress that I bought in a street shop in Paris, back in 2011. I never wore it, and when I saw that mid-length skirts were in this Spring, I thought maybe it was her moment.

I have been into recycling old clothes for a while now. Before that, I thought that as a blogger, I should be able to buy new clothes every other week to deliver to my readers. Nonsense! I think the idea is to share useful ideas for people in search of their unique style. Style shouldn't be about having new clothes. And being a student, I thank the heavens for that.
I believe that you can do wonder with a bit of imagination and a few skills at mixing and matching, and this what I try to do now (I still like to go shopping, don't get me wrong).

It was so easy to just throw a denim shirt on it to give it this classy Vintage look. I added some black heels, a black clutch, and I was out the door.

Looking back, I am not sure about the brown belt. I like the size, but maybe I can switch it up with something a bit harder. That's the thing with experimenting, you make mistakes. But I was happy I created a brand new outfit with my old clothes. I plan on creating more outfit to see where this dress can take its legacy, she deserves it after all, having been waiting around in my closet for three years now.

I hope you like this post, until next time!

Bisous, Brigitte

Forever21 21 Days of Layers Inspired Look: Long Live the Cardigan!



Gotta love the Californian weather. Coming from France, I was pretty happy to see that it wasn't that cold here in San Francisco. Even in Fall!
This Indian summer weather is just perfect for me, as I often get cold in the upper part of my body, like my shoulders or my neck, while my legs always enjoy a bit of freshness.
If you're weird like that too, the combination Summer dress - Cardigan is perfect for the first days of Fall. Yep, layering is hands down my favorite Fashion trend this season: as it is always nice and sunny despite the cool wind, I can wear one of my favorite summer dresses and give a bit of texture to my outfit with a nice cotton cardigan and a jacket, thick enough to make up for the nakedness of my legs.

I was on my way to school, so I don't wear anything fancy because I am L-A-Z-Y; I like to be comfortable and casual. But if I was going downtown or on a date, I would substitute my flats with nice brown boots and a cute matching purse.
