After learning about this line through the lovely Apartment #34, I immediately clicked to shop and stumbled upon their dreamy spring 2010 campaign video (which I’ve played several times!). Loving the modern Bardot model and the glimpses that we get of her Parisian escapades.
I can’t believe that I came across this post on Mowielicious about making French macaroons by hand… I was just at home visiting my parents and my mom has been craving macaroons ever since she got back from Paris and had her first taste at Laduree. {And what a place to have your first macaroon!} They live in Northern Virginia and it’s surprisingly difficult to find them in their area. We did end up finding some at an unexpected spot {and they were imported from France, but not as light and airy as we would have liked}, so I started thinking that maybe we should try and make our own! Have any of you taken the leap and tried to make them at home? I consider myself a pretty good baker, and was thinking about making them over the holidays, but after reading this post must admit I’m a tad scared!
I think it’s the little girl in me, but I always love seeing photos from the famous Bal Crillon des Debutantes in Paris. This year’s ball just happened this past Saturday and the dresses were extraordinary. Archival Lanvin, Chanel Couture, Alexander McQueen, Dolce & Gabbana…you get the idea.
For those lazy mornings when the last thing you want to do is stress about your hair, I love Joanna’s little tutorial on how to get that tousled yet oh-so-French bun over at Experience PARISIENNE. How adorable {and easy!} is this?
I’m loving these popsicle-hued cocktail dresses from Lanvin’sspring 2010 collection. The high, messy buns and touches of cherry red and nude are just perfection-no jewelry needed.
