Springtime in Paris

Yesterday's weather was absolutely beautiful. I took a nice long walk around the city pre-internship and was actually able to take off my jacket. To add to the fairy tale, this particular dress was purchased on the Champs-Elysées. Add a crêpe, a baguette and a glass of wine and there you've got your stereotypical perfect Parisian afternoon.

Spain and Morocco pictures to come!

Fashion Mullet?

Not so much business in the front, party in the back as it is retro on the top, hipster on the bottom, but it's effing hard coming up with titles for blog posts, especially when you're way out of practice.

True story: this skirt is like made of a linen-like cloth and it wrinkles if you even look at it funny. It was not in good shape after my 7-hour flight across the ocean to say the least, so I hid it in a drawer under my clothes made of more resilient materials. Then, a few days ago I pulled it out, dusted it off, wore it out to a bar with some of my friends, and suddenly remembered why I couldn't live without it earlier in the school year.
