Today I am wearing...

I hope everyone is having a lovely week, I am still sunning myself & making the most of the proximity to the patisserie (fat seat belt home anyone?) I have been reading stacks of books that I never otherwise get around to, drinking at lunch time (just like the French) & day tripping all over the place. The weather has been a bit up & down but there is nothing like a cafe stop to dodge the passing clouds. On a sightseeing day in Cannes this is what I wore:

(Blazer - Topshop, top - Marni for h&m, shorts - vintage, bag - Marc Jacobs, sunglasses - vintage)
(Cannes was a wonderous place, filled with winding streets in the old town, huge boats in the port & cafe culture on every pavement. Oh and did I mention the shops... Miu Miu, Chanel and Prada within 100 yards of each other, Hermes, Louis Vuitton and Dior, oh my. After pawing my way around everything shiny & luxurious, the boy led me to Galleries Lafayette, here I could at least feel that I could touch items & there was no security guard to watch & see whether I five finger discounted this season's must have Chanel tote. So alas until the day I can buy without looking at the price ticket I will be simply day tripping to Cannes & dreaming on the train home of that Miu Miu clutch & Hermes silk scarf.) xxx

  1. Sounds like you are having a wonderful time! I try to justify drinking at lunchtime by saying 'I'm just being French' haha. And yay for having time to read. I've read 2 books over the last few days, and want to read a few more before I have to go back to work! xx

    1. thank you. I lived in them on holiday, with & without tights. I definitely think you could style them with a cute quirk or two. xxx
