A 70s-inspired collection that has me swooning
It started with this ad and the fact that I pretty much love everything in it. Let’s forget about the fact that I’m way too short to ever pull off an orange jumpsuit without looking like a prison break. Rather, let’s focus on the gravity-defying grace of model Frida Gustavsson in this hot-mama number, perfectly photographed against a pristine backdrop by Patrick Demarchelier. Then let’s take a closer look at the Paul & Joe Spring/Summer 2011 collection shown at Paris Fashion Week, and dream of packing such pieces for our own European seaside vacations:
[ For some sight-seeing around town… ]
[ Meet me for lunch? ]
[ A hot date night and def. beaucoup drinks… ]
[ A.M. stroll to the café for a little espresso… ]
[ A bit of en plein air market shopping… ]
[ Don’t mind if I sashay down to an early din-din with friends… ]
[ A day trip to a picturesque and historic site… ]
[ More drinks, non? ]
[ The grand finale: I’ll take one in yellow too! ]
Au revoir! Have a lovely weekend, wherever you are…We actually have a busy weekend planned, including a fun zoo trip for the wee one. ;o)
p.s. Bradley Cooper fans: did you see this interview in which he speaks entirely in French? Mais oui!

I’m a horrible influence, I know!
Lonely Wife Project says
Holy…each piece is better than that last. I’m especially swooning over floral shirt dress (perfect for a day at the market)! And I don’t believe you can’t pull off aviators. I can picture your pretty face perfectly in them.
And I’m THE biggest Bradley Cooper stalker. There’s something so freaking sexy about that guy. Have a fantastic weekend lady!
