My favourite things

Lavande

I especially love how on each flower there are a dozen baby flowers - the kind of flowers that little fairies sleep in

Bonne journee xx

NYFW SS11

While I have to admit I haven't looked through all the collections from NYFW, I have looked through a few and here are a couple that I am lusting after and seeing as it is Spring in Sydney - it's perfect timing for some inspiration!

Carolina Herrera for chic city sleek at the office





Marc Jacobs for a holiday in my home away from home on the Cote d'Azur

And Oscar de la Renta for that all necessary touch of luxury

And of course I can't forget about my frenchie - these are my picks for his summer wardrobe - from Perry Ellis

from Tommy Hilfiger

Ok now back to the study - bonne journee xx

Nanna's night out!

Somehow my lovely frenchman stumbled across this sublimely adorable singer and suggested going to her concert that weekend. Being on a Sunday night - this nanna was a little hestitant - but SO glad we ended up going because it was just so fabulous! All the quirky stories she told between songs made her even more endearing and reminded me of one of my own darling friends. Mais peu importe - have a look  at the video for Sunday Best - such a great song and so beautifully stylised I can just watch it over and over again - Bonne journee xx

Changing seasons

Today is the first Saturday since Autumn that we haven't packed up and trundled off to an oval to support our Frenchman and his rugby team.

While I love going to watch and support and yell encouragement from the sidelines* now I get to spend my Saturday afternoons doing fun summery stuff...like studying...actually we may need to get him a summer sport so I have an excuse to procrastinate from my studies all summer too!

I love how he always wears his socks down (must to the disgust of most of rugby followers) because I can always tell which one he is when they are all in a big tangle on the field!

*Often to the embarassment of anyone within 10 feet of me

Premiere!

It's the first day of spring! The air has changed and the heavy winter coats are at the drycleaners ready for storage for the summer!

Having just moved into our apartment we have been experiencing a whole lot of new firsts.

First bottle of Moet

First box of chocolates

New home for my little man

First housewarming present

and our first party!

Bonne journee xx
