Bad Girls Smoke, But so Did Coco.

I have always thought women who can smoke and have class look amazing. OK, ONLY Coco really has class here but the other girls are so beautiful that the cigarette just gives them an extra edge that accentuates a sort of innate fierceness. Yes, we know smoking is bad for you but is there anything wrong at looking at them? Anyway, enjoy! 

(None of these pictures were taken by me but have been found by me all over the internet. Unfortunately, I rarely pick up sources so if you know where they come from, a little message is welcome :) )

Les femmes qui fument et ont de l'allure, j'adore. D'accord ici, on va pas se mentir, Coco est la seulement à être réellement élégante en fumant ici mais les autres filles sont si belles que la cigarette leur apprte un petit plus de ferocité :). Bref, enjoy !

(Je n'ai prise aucune de ces photos mais les ai trouvées un peu partout sur le web. Si vous savez d'ou elles viennent, vous pouvez m'envoyez un petit message :))

Here is my first real summer look :) No lost hippies this time, just a simple summer look, comfortable yet chic* It's just the essence of what summer should be : the time of no worries, the time where everything slows down, drowsiness overtakes your soul and you let yourself go...

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

What is one to say about June, the time of perfect young summer, the fulfillment of the promise of the earlier months, and with as yet no sign to remind one that its fresh young beauty will ever fade.  ~Gertrude Jekyll

I found a lost hippie in my garden.

This is just a very vintage look that is interesting not for the look in itself but for the whole effect it gives through the 'vintage' effect of the images...it's blurry, it's nostalgic, it's hippie.
It's about remembering the sunny times of last summer with nostalgia because you don't know what is to come... It's about not seeing things clearly because they were left blurred on purpose. Not everything should be pristine, precise, clear. Sometimes it's about taking a step back...and think about those goddamn hippies who worried about nothing much all day*

Remember Now by Karl Lagerfeld: Beautiful Debauchery

'Remember Now', Karl Lagerfeld's short-movie for the Chanel Cruise 2011 collection presented in St-Tropez a few days ago...
I absolutely loved it... it makes me think of the wonderful summer days that are to come and make me even more impatient for the few weeks I'll be spending in St-Tropez in August...Enjoy*

Je vous présente 'Remember Now' de Karl Lagerfeld, son court-métrage pour la collection Chanel Cruise 2011 préseté à St-Tropez...J'ai absolument adoré...ça me rappele les beaux jours d'étés qui approchent et ça me rend d'autant plus impatiente pour les quelques semaines que je passerais à St-Trop' ala fin d'aout...

Art & The City: Paris

Here are some pictures I took while in Paris... they are street art.They inspired me because it shows you can be an artist anytime, anywhere, whoever you are. Art is about creating something that leaves a mark. The first one is not so much art but I wanted to include as it sends a powerful message (anarchist nonetheless) and shows that expression can take any form and the message is just as shocking and beautiful by its sincerity.

Lips.

Just playing around with my lips, quotations and fotoflexer.

Translation: Lips sometimes prostitute words.

Introducing Charles & Coco

Coco and Charles are old friends. Naturally they have their differences... one led a life of debauchery and the other lived only for sophistication.
Yet the two are born from the same essence.
Both have style, both have class, both have the 'je ne sais quoi' of allure.

Slouched on their respective divans, they contemplate their existence of aesthetes, of eternal admirers of pulchritude and beauty.



Charles et Coco sont de vieux amis. Certes ils ont leur différences... l'un aime la débauche et l'autre ne vit que pour la sophistication. Mais tous deux sont fruits de la même essence. Les deux ont du style, les deux ont de la classe, les deux ont le 'je ne sais quoi' de l'allure.

Affalés sur leurs canapés, ils contemplent leur vies d'aesthètes, d'éternels admirateurs de la beauté.

This will be my blog.

A place of beauty, of aesthetics.

A window upon a world seen not for what it is but for what it's worth.

A secret garden in the web? Who knows, maybe.

A vision noble and pure of the Arts.

Art, Music, Fashion, Photography, Film, Poetry.

Voila ce que sera ce blog.

Un endroit fait de beauté, de belles choses.

Un lieu apart où on ne voit pas le monde pour ce qu'il est mais pour ce qu'il vaut.

Un jardin secret dans une toile? Peut-être, qui sait.

Art, Musique, Culture, Mode, Photographie, Cinema, Poésie.

Une vision noble et pure de l'art.

Mais surtout Lifestyle.
