Back to school...work?

C'est la rentrée, people!!

This is the french to say "back to school" but I'm still not sure it's the same...
Because when we say "rentrée" it not necessarily means "school". Do I have to say "back to work" because I'm an adult ??!! Oh, I'm very confused with learning a new language and expressions!

However, more seriously, because this a serious topic, the "back to school" topic, here what I like about the end of august/september month:

First, I realized (again) this morning that now I'm a grown-up I will never have to go to school again!
It has been years now, but everytime, each september I'm so happy I have to repeat it : NO MORE HIGHSCHOOL!
No more mean girls! No more homeworks! No more pimples-on-face-when-speaking-to-handsome-guy! Hmm, no this last one is not so-true, damn chocolates and french charcuteries...

September is also one of the most important month for fashion.
You have all the new trend for Autumn/winter in magazines, the new collections in shops and soon the fashion weeks!!
I love how I get very inspired in Fall with all this (and now that I know Pinterest, I'm over the moon with it!).

So I have to go, because now I want to make a new trench for fall!!
I have a perfect fabric for that. A very thick sateen cotton! It's pink, so not very fall-ish to me (Brown and burgundy are the colors) but it will be very pretty! Maybe I will take some picture soon for you.

And if you are still searching for the perfect blouse to wear in september, stop searching, I have it in my shop!

Happy Birthday Gene!

A few days ago, I was walking in Main Street just a couple block from my apartment, when I was attired by something in this shop Much&Little.
I couldn't believe it at first but yes, it was a Lauren Moffatt shirt!

And they had more amazing pieces inside... Just gorgeous!

I have to tell you, I'm such a big fan of Lauren Moffatt! And it was the first time I saw it in the flesh.
So perfect outfits and so well-made. One more thing making me so happy to have move in Vancouver!

Here some of her collection :




Now I'm looking forward to Automn


Also, today the wonderful Gene Kelly would have been 100 years old. 
That would have been RAD! (haha I try to learn the slang here in Vancouver) (maybe I need to progress a little more...)

Because I love this song so much and Gene's sexy smile, here's a treat for you!



An another one I love love love! And this is a choregraphy I learned some years ago when I was a tap-dancer. 
Yep, secret past life!


See you!

Etsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny...



I remember that some time ago (yes, one year ago, I know, just shhh) I said something about putting items on Etsy.
Here it is, with the collection from my last fashion show for sale.

Many thanks to the beautiful Anaïs for being my model. You're the best!

There is half of the collection on Etsy right now. The rest will be add in a few days. This time I mean it.

Seriously.



And also a little treat for people loving Hollywood gossip as much as me, I found my next "Iwillbeonlineallnightlong" website.
Oh I'm sure some of you expected something like this, but sorry guys, I'm a classic Hollywood lover.
Enjoy!

Ready for the new adventure

Before leaving Paris, we had to do a lot of things to be ready.
Some were really annoying like moving out and storage all our stuff, organize papers, visas, a zillion doctor's visits and so on...
But one was great and exciting thanks to my beloved one!
He wanted a good coat for sooo long (you see, he's very very tall so he never finds anything good made to his size in store). And because while we prepared our depart for Vancouver we heard A LOT about the rain there, we thought about a good and solid rain coat like the britain pea-coat.
Three days later, voilà !!



I still need to take a finished picture of it with the buttons on. 
But it has been really hot and sunny all the time here in Vancouver so the coat is still at the bottom of a box. 
More of it in fall!


And sorry for the bad qualities pictures, my camera was already packed somewhere... 
Maybe I should just pretend it's the vintage filter, haha.

Vancouver rules, baby!!


So, yes I know.
My blog was in kind of a coma lately.
But I have good reasons of course (haha, haven't we all?).

I move from Paris to Vancouver in Canada, guys!

The months to come will be very different for me, obviously. And here, what is going to change in this blog:

First, from now on I will write in english (or try to do it). But if my french fan club want me to translate in french, no problem.
By "french fan club" i don't mean just you papa... I will hoping for a little more people!

Secondly, this time I will try to be more rigorous with this thing. Maybe one post each six months isn't very attractive for a blog, maybe.

And at last, I think I will not doing more Spring/Summer or Fall/Winter Collection in the next months.
This is time consuming with not a very good money-wise result.
So I will prefer to do small collection every month or couple of months, to keep it fresh and find a better opening for my fashion designs. But, we will see...

How does this sound?
