ALWAYS BE YOURSELF. UNLESS YOU CAN BE A MERMAID. THEN, ALWAYS BE A MERMAID.

Yesterday, like every first Saturday of summer, was the MERMAID PARADE 2014!

I had loved it so much last year that Romain and I had decided to do it “for real” this time, we had planned to dress up and everything! Unfortunately, Romain is in North Carolina for work. I was a bit disappointed but still very excited, and I decided to go with my camera and a lot of sunscreen on to Coney Island to bring you many pictures.

Creativity, humor and cheerfulness were the … READ MORE

A little Sunday walk in Coney Island with my WE ARE KNITTERS sweater.

I told you about it the other day here!

So… do you like it?

I love it. The fabric is light and soft, and it’s perfect with my denim shorts (and my instax!). It’s the perfect summer sweater! And if I’m ever sick of pompoms, I can take them off.

I’m very happy with the colors (you can choose different ones when you create your kit, to make a strawberry/vanilla sweater for instance). They perfectly match the setting of a beautiful beach : a light yellow … READ MORE

Some balls of soft wool, amazing colors, 2 wood needles and an instructions booklet wrapped in a paper bag?

This is WE ARE KNITTERS, the coolest knitting kit concept!

When WE ARE KNITTERS asked me to create my own kit with my favorite piece, I immediately accepted!

I chose to knit a lovely sweater with summer colors : the VANILLA SWEATER!

You can find my kit here, I’ll show you the result very soon.

You often see me wearing colors and prints. I like associating them and taming them (ahah). I’m not very fond of the Less Is More, ultra minimalist trend. It’s not that I don’t like it, but I believe it better fits beautiful young (or not!) skinny women. With my little extra weight, I feel like I don’t look like anything whenever I try it. And yet, however, sometimes I like to go for simplicity.

Especially for events/cocktails/parties…

Most of the time, I freak out. I feel like I have nothing to wear and I’m afraid of being either overdressed or … READ MORE

Before starting to tell you about my trip to Reunion, here is a little outfit shot there by my Célinette.

Paradoxically, we didn’t shoot many outfits there : only two for me, and none for Céline. The thing is we had to see so many things in so little time. And even when we were motivated in the morning, after hours of drive, walks, visits, etc., we didn’t look like anything anymore.

And yet I had taken a huuuuge suitcase full of beautiful things to show you… I blamed myself many time for this! I always leave home full … READ MORE
