Elle France

Heidi Mount for Elle France(tfs)

I immediately fell in love with these, perfect looks for this fall.

7 things on my mind

Marion Cotillard, perfect natural look

Caroline Issa

Isabel Marant jacket. Which is perfect but too expensive. I found a similar one at Esprit( yes I know not a really great store) but it looked exactly the same! The only thing that was totally wrong: the colour, it was in blue. I know, dark blue isn't bad but black looks just better with my other clothes.

Jil sander fall 2010/2011

Clémence at Chanel, a perfect look.

Franz Kline, great colours for fall.

Great jacket+scarf
Thank you for the reminder! It's Marina Rust Connor.

These songs that we sing

Well, I was thinking. I would like to know what you as 'my readers' listen to. I'm always so curious to the music everyone is listening to. I'm always searching for new music. For example: When I read an interview from a person I like, I always look for their music taste, like Charlotte gainsbourg.

Her play list:

Serge Gainsbourg Ballade de melody Nelson

Lou Reed perfect day

Elvis Love me tender

Radiohead A wolf at the door

Beatles I'm so tired

Bowie Soul love

Air playground love

Judy Garland over the rainbow

or Clémence Poésy, she listens to:

Elvis

Tom Waits

Sophie Hunger

Sigur Ros

Marianne Faithfull

Noisettes

Serge Gainsbourg

Anne Sylvestre Les gens qui doutent

Patty Bravo La bambola

Leonard Cohen Suzanne

Loic Lantoine Tout est calme

Renaud Mistral gagnant

Iron and wine

So what is your favorite song, favorite band, favorite album etc.?

Inspired

source TFS

I actually felt quite un inspired but Susan Cernek made everything right. She kept it simple but she gave it a special 'touch' with the scarf and the red blazer. You can compare it a little to my own style(although I don't wear red) but I'm pretty much always in jeans and flats.

Hanelli in green

I love the green Margiela coat. I think it is a great color for fall! I can't wait to wear my green sweater paired with my black skirt and black flats.

Bon soir Mademoiselle

Yesterday I was still in Paris and now I'm already back home looking at pictures from the wonderful trip. Paris is just one of the most inspiring city's in the world. A few highlights: Musée Eugene Delacroix, Jardin du Luxembourg et Saint-Germain de Prés. At first (before I actually was in Paris) I didn't want to go shopping because I already had buyed a lot during my summer vacation.But I just couldn't resist. So I think I can add something more to the list: The chloé- and repetto boutique, my new pair of heels and all the people who gave me this great inspiration for fall. Maybe I will post some pictures in my next post. Au revoir

The jeans

I'm off to Paris!

Just for fun

Elisa Sednaoui. I love the way she looks in these photos! She looks serious in a funny way. Haha that sounds stupid.

These pictures are from the turnover fall collection. They use beautiful materials in the new collection. The black dress is perfect to wear(although the belt looks awful). I would like to wear the dress with flats or something. And what about that great cardigan? Looks lovely don't you think?

Blouse

picture from her ribbons and her bows

From my family I received some money for my birthday and I thought it was the perfect opportunity to buy a good blouse.Sadly enough I didn't find a blouse( I did find the perfect green sweater a la Céline and a black jacket).

However I am looking for a good blouse for a while now and I still haven't found the perfect one. Has anyone a good suggestion where to buy a good blouse?

Repeat

Calvin Klein

Céline

Stella McCartney

I'm probably quite early (because winter isn't even here yet) or too late (the fact that everyone is already focusing on spring 2011). But I still wanted to share these. They are my favourites from this season. When I first saw them, a few months ago I didn't think they were worth sharing. But I caught myself on still looking back at the Calvin Klein, Céline and Stella McCartney shows because they are wearable and give me inspiration for my own closet(buy investment pieces). I hope you still like it.

Three

Peinture- Pierre Soulages

Eternal Love- Rodin

Study of Sky- Eugène Delacroix

This summer I am going to visit a museum in Paris with my family. I can choose which museum I want to visit. I have selected three museums. I can only choose one museum so maybe you can help me.

1) Centre Pompidou, Pierre Soulages Exhibition. The Centre Pompidou is putting on a large scale retrospective to celebrate the work of the greatest painter on the current French scene, Pierre Soulages. As he nears his 90th birthday, Soulages, the "painter of black and light", is recognised as one of abstract art's major figures.The exhibition looks back over more than 60 years of painting and offers a new reading of the artist's oeuvre, with the emphasis on the more recent developments in his work. The exhibition brings together over a hundred major works dating from 1946 to the present day, which display the dynamism and diversity of his constantly evolving approach.

2) Musée Rodin. The museum is housed in eighteenth-century mansion, called the Hôtel Biron. Rodin (1840-1917) lived and worked in this house from 1908 until his death. In The museum and surrounding garden can you see a large number of works by the famous sculptor. His most famous works are present here. Besides a large number of images, there are sketches, drawings and paintings by Rodin present. There is also an exhibition called corps et decors. Where about 150 items will be on display at the art space, including iconic pieces such as Rodin's The Gates of Hell and several vases, drawings and sculptures.

3) Musée Eugène Delacroix. Eugène Delacroix is numbered among the greatest and most influential of French painters. He is most often classified as an artist of the Romantic school. His best known painting is La Liberté guidant le peuple(which is in the Louvre museum). Musée Eugene Delacroix was once Delacroix’s home when he worked in nearby Saint Sulpice. It showcases works covering the greater part of the artist’s career and addresses many different themes. The artist’s apartment and studio are open to visitors, including a private garden just a stone’s throw from one of the most romantic spots in Paris, place Furstenberg.
