J'affectionne les ADDICTIONS ...

2009-03-10T07:02:00.000-07:00

In fashion, we all have addictions. Some fashionistas are found of bags, purses, tops, accessories. Like a lot of girls, I am addicted to shoes. I might have like a dozen of pair of shoes from Zara/ New Look to Gucci. When I walk throught the 5th floor of Le Printemps, I always find a pair of shoes I would like to buy. But, when I fell in love with one, it's become an obsession and a challenge for me to get it. In order to buy the Marc Jacobs boots from my last post, I've sold some of my stuff like DVDs, clothes, jewellery to get enought money. And when I finally get it, I even don't really wear it, for fear of spoil it !

If I had enought money, the first pair of shoes on my "MUST HAVE" list, would be the one from Pierre Hardy. I looooove those shoes. They are amazing ! I know perfectly with what and how I would wear it. To me, you've got 2 possibilities. The casual one : just with a skinny jean and a Petit Bateau white marcel. The shoes makes all the outfit. It's trendy, rock and elegant cuz it's still quite simple. Or the second possibility would be to make the total rock look with a black perfecto, a Balmain jean and some skull accessories. I love the two different ways to wear that pair of shoes. Just hope to manage to buy it ...

The next on my list : the Salomé Louboutin to wear with a Azzedine Alaia black dress. Girly anc chic.

I love the Miu Miu too because you can wear it with everything at any time. At work, it gives a touch of colour to a YSL black suit, with a jean on a saturday afternoon or with a glither dress to go out at night!

Shoes Shoes Shoes !! Just the fact to talk about it, motivates me to have at least one of those pairs!

Instead of studying your exams, act like me ! Express your style and create some sets on www.polyvore.com

I'm kidding. It's not good ! Get back to work, now!

Above, it's my set with the Pierre Hardy shoes of my dreams, a Balmain jacket, a Balenciaga bag and a nice pendant from Thomas Sabo

I'm feeling rock today !

Little Leather Dress

2009-03-04T10:56:00.000-08:00

Louis Vuitton bag found in Vanve brocante and Barbara Bui boots with 8cm heels just as I like it ;)

Little loving beige dress ! I have had it from a friend designer that only works with leather. I really like the way she "tames" leather. Leather is heavy, hard and she really managed to transform it and create beautiful clothes such as this dress, elegant and original.

BON PLAN Rue des Tournelles.

2009-03-02T10:07:00.001-08:00

Last Sartuday as the sun was shining on Paris. I went with some friends in Bastille, have lunch in a Tapas bar that reminded me of Barcelona. The place is great : a nice and spanish inspired interior design. Cooking is very good and not so expensive.

Just in front of the restaurant, I found a vintage shop, ODETTA. The shop is full of amazing and beautiful clothes from haute couture brands such as YSL, Dolce & Gabbana, Vuitton, Chanel ... I fall in love with an emerald green dress in jersey from Diane Von Furstenberg. 220€, do you find it expensive for a Diane Von Furstenberg dress ??!! Anyway, I didn't bought it, maybe I gonna change my mind...

Prices are relatively high as they only sell high brand clothes. There is also a great and original selection of shoes.

odettavintage.com

The problem of those kind of high quality second hand shops is that most of the time, you just watch, touch clothes and then this little voice inside your head comes and says "It's not good, you've already spent too much money! WTF ! You're not Bill Gates!"

The solution : Sissi's Corner shop !

Second hand shop too but affordable. In the same street, an other vintage shop with a lot of clothes from various brands from Sinéquanone to Dior. Prices are low. I've found a JOSEPH dress for 20€ and the pair of boots from my last post for 40€. Sissi's Corner shop is really a top tip.

Chanel Bag

It's sunday and it's fu****g raining. The only way to make my day sunnier is to find a special outfit such as this one .... Black Leggings with a XXL Marc Jacobs T-shirt with Blondie. I bought it on ebay one year ago but I thought it was too large for me, so I've never worn it ... until today.

I found those brown boots yesterday in a Vintage shop in Bastille. The 2 things I like more in this outfit is mum's Chevignon perfecto and the famous "Collier de Chien" bracelet from HERMES. One thing that I'm sure about is that Perfecto will never go out of fashion !

I SHOES U

2009-02-20T04:33:00.000-08:00

I got iiiittttt! My banker keeps on calling me (but I never answer!) but anyway, I have the shoes I've dreamed of. They are from Marc Jacobs. When I saw it for the first time, I knew ... that it was the one, the pair of shoes I've been waiting for! (Yeeaahh it's a love story ;)

Bon Plan. What do U do on Saturday ?

2009-02-19T00:33:00.000-08:00

We can all agree that Saturday is the best day of the week : It's the first day of the week end, the shops are open, Monday seems sooo far away and you feel like partying on Saturday night !

Each person has got its habits on Saturday. I'm going to tell you mine.

One thing I like is to go at the Galerie Vivienne, Paris 2e, it must be one of the most beautifull galerie in Paris. You have to go have lunch in A Priori The. The little restaurant is owed be an american proprietress, Peggy who brought the best american recipies with her in Paris. You can eat a reall Chili con Carne and other original meals... The best desert is still the Cheesecake, the best I've ever eaten.

Just after my coffee, I run into La Marelle shop, also in the Galerie. It's a high-end consignment shop where you can find a lot of treasures : Jean Paul Gaultier clothes, Dies von Noten dress ... The good thing is that the clothes are in very good condition.

I've already found a pair of Chloé boots that costed me 150€ + a pair of Colisée de Sacha escarpins for 70€ + my blouse Bel Air for 40€ + a Chloé handbag for 50€ and my black dress Nathalie Garcon from my last post.... Well, I've found a lot of things !

And finally, still in the Galerie, you can have a look into the Jean Paul Gaultier Shop ! It's just Whhaaaaaoooo ! Nothing is accessible but the shop is amazing !

Black boots + Elegant black dress + Motorcyle = Crazy Fucking Stylish

Yesterday I switched on the music and began to dance on the remix of "My Moon My Man". I got crazy and could not stop to moove. I love this outfit and most of all what I like is the mix of styles. I wear a sexy and pretty elegant black dress I bought from "La Marelle" and instead of wearing black Christian Louboutin stilettos , I prefered black boots like this + a black Motorcycle handbag from Balenciaga . Perfect style !

P.S : Huuummmmmm ... the Balenciaga .... well, it might be possible that it's a fake ... but no one knows and .. who cares ? And most of all, it's the CRISIS !

Bon Plan. Chasse aux trésors à l'hôtel Drouot

2009-02-17T04:08:00.000-08:00

Savez-vous qu'il existe des ventes vintage où on peut dénicher des trésors de la mode à des prix plus qu'intéressants... ! Il y a 2 mois, je suis allée à la première vente aux enchères de Pénélope Blanckaert ( qui a fait un master à l'IFM) à l'hotel Drouot.

La vente aux enchères c'est amusant et en plus on peut acquérir de véritables joyaux de la mode. La preuve, je suis repartie de la vente avec :

- une paire d'escarpins Yves Saint Laurent

- 2 lots de 8 pièces au total

Blousons Marc Jacobs

2 pulls en cashmere Louis Vuitton

3 chemisiers Marc Jacobs

J'ai eu les chaussures YSL à 150€, un prix très intéressant pour des escarpins boucle Mondrian cultes ! Les lots valent vraiment le coup. Au total, j'ai déboursé 250€ pour 6 pièces Marc Jacobs et 2 Louis Vuitton. Ces achats représentent plus des investissements que des achats sans lendemain ...

Désormais, essayez de vous tenir au courant des ventes vintage ou/et contemporaine. Ca peut valoir le coup d'y jeter un coup d'oeil.
