Red, red wine goes to my head.

⟶ Posted on mars 11th, 2012 in Fashion, My Daily Life » 12 Comments

Lately, I’ve been obsessed with many things. My first obsession is of course A Song of Ice and Fire by G.R.R Martin, the other is the colour wine-red. When I say that I’m obsessed, it’s insanely true. I’ve been buying a lot of clothes, underwear, candles .. well, I thought I could show you in pictures what I’m talking about.

I just love this huge knitted cardigan, I adore pairing it with my white blouse and black pants, and of course ballet plumps/ballerinas.

Well, this is new, posting about my clothes. I know some people requested it .. however I don’t know if I shall continue posting this kind of posts, but it was fun doing it !

Thoughts on Valentine’s Day

My Valentine

I’m what you might call a very romantic girl. This is a fact, I love chick flicks, romance, candles, sweet dinners, listening to cheesy songs… well you see my point.

However, sometimes I don’t get the hype about Valentine’s day. Sure it’s nice to celebrate love, offer gifts etc; but I celebrate love all the time and I offer Antonin gifts very often. That doesn’t mean I won’t make something nice for him this year, but oh my, shops spam me with their Valentine’s Day emails and communiqués every single day and I’m starting to get sick of it. In fact, I’d rather make him something with my own hands than buy him something. (FYI, it’s already done but since he reads my blog, I won’t tell you what I did!)

So no, I won’t buy him a bottle of perfume, I won’t buy red lingerie because I’ve received an email about promotions, but I crafted something ‘cute’.. though we’ll not be together on the d-day.

As for now, I’m currently enjoying a nice evening at home, reading A Song of Ice and Fire (almost done with A Clash of Kings – oh boy I’m so hooked) while listening to the brand new jazzy McCartney album, his work is so magical and brilliant …

I’d like to thank all of you for your kind comments and your support ! This week I’ve been promoted three times on HelloCotton.com. I love all of my readers!

 

Paris : the Great Mosque and le Jardin des Plantes

My friend Cosima and I went to the Great Mosque of Paris a few weeks ago. It was a great afternoon, I had a blast visiting the mosque, drinking delicious tea afterwards in the salon de thé and walking in the Jardin des Plantes. There was a beautiful sun however it was quite cold.

It was also the occasion for me to take pictures …
