While I really disliked Piper Perabo’s dress at the Golden Globes, I do love her apartment, as showcased on Garance Dore’s blog last week. Such a laid back, bohemian vibe that really creates a personal feeling. Charming, no?
Here’s my take on a bohemian bedroom like Piper’s!
Remember that Grange Furniture contest I won? Well that prize was a trip to Paris and I leave next week for it! I can;t believe I’m headed back there and get to show my Dad around Paris for his first time ever! I’ve been so busy that I have not had much time to think about it, but beginning yesterday my brain started floating towards all things en francais. French style always inspires me, and the images from L’Hotel Particulier have haunted me for months (chock out the site). Located in Provence, it’s style is so amazing and simple, traditional yet modern and totally ME!

But back to the City of Light- I really love the images I found by Etsy photographer Vita Nostra. Fantastic scenes from various parts of Paris.
As I panic about what to pack (it’s going to be cold!) I put together two outfits I wish i could bring with me!
For daytime walking (which I did about 8 hours of daily the last time I was in Paris…)
And for dinner out at night….
I am currently reading The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern and one of the things I love about it is the description of a magical circus rendered completely in only black and white. Black and white striped tents, monochromatic costumes and even only bright white fire. I think I have probably posted 10 times about black and white, but why not one more? I just love the most basic color combo to death- it always looks chic whether in a room or in an outfit. It’s making me a little regretful of my choice to do a navy sofa… but I change my mind all the time! :)
