Those Frenchies

// Original Penguin fedora / Vanessa Bruno Athé top / Target ponte pants / Zara messenger bag / Minimarket wedges / jewelry from Green Dragonfly, F21, Target, and vintage //

It was not too long ago when I remember singing the praises of those Scandinavians and their "cool as a cucumber" style. They know just how to perfectly pull off the minimal look without coming off like a bore. Yes, my affections do still partially reside with that side of Europe (eh hem, Minimarket wedges), but it seems that the French has once again charmed the pants off of me (j/k! They're still on. I promise!). Since I've been known to be pretty laid back, the "effortless" look is quite appealing. It's amazing how French masterminds like Isabel Marant are able to transform comfy chic into a cult phenomenon. Hello, Dicker boots! Speaking of, I'll be doing a review soon on several Dicker lookalikes for those who can't fathom spending $600+ for what's basically a pair of simple suede western-style ankle boots.

In the meantime, let's enjoy some Kate Bosworth in all her etherealness in Vanessa Bruno's latest lookbook...
