Cropped

Upon seeing this stunning Balenciaga midriff-baring molded bra on the runway for the Spring 2013 collections my heart stopped, and crop tops paired with anything have been on my mind ever since. Not only does it give me a great excuse to work out, but it also goes with everything I plan on wearing this summer from high waisted skirts to pants with a blazer for a structured look. Well guess what? I found a lovely version for those of us on a budget, which you can buy here.

My sincerest apologies for having completely neglected Bougeotte for two weeks. After returning from wonderful Monaco (photo diary coming tomorrow) and getting a horrible cold which chained me to bed for five days, and a week-long exam week, my brain was filled with economics graphs and mathematical equations, instead of wanderlust and things I need to buy, which is what I usually spend my day dreaming about.

Have some lovely collaborations, and very exciting news to share with you...so bear with me, and may your day be beautiful. 

Au Revoir

Just finalising my packing before my short getaway to Nice and Monaco tomorrow, and incredibly excited as to what I might encounter in the French Riviera... maybe lovely sunny days filled with bright flower bouquets and elegant fedoras to cover myself from the blazing sun, or a stormy sea with the city of Monaco filled with a hazy atmosphere. 

Whatever it is, I keep reminding myself to never look back, and on every trip I take I exert myself to stay away from any forms of contact with the mundane life I live back home, and fully immerse myself in the new culture. 

I will be back on Tuesday - with lovely photographs and stories to tell. Have a lovely weekend!

Bringing Birkin back

...in love with this editorial for Vogue Netherlands channelling Jane Birkin - an everlasting icon of Parisian bohème chic. Because there's nothing like beautiful Mijo Mihaljcic with long eyelashes and that 'innocence meets sex appeal look,' with a long gold chain adorning her neck à la Jane, wearing a pair of faded flares paired with a wicker basket for that timeless effortless look.
