]]> An unusually busy summer, but nonetheless one that I know I’ll remember for years – and it’s barely even started.

My twenty-second birthday is this Monday, and I look forward to celebrating it with my friends, family, and twin sister. I wish I knew what to ask for, but the Stella McCartney bodysuit I’ve been eyeing on Net-A-Porter sold out in my size already.

]]> One of my favorite people from LA, Hana, bought me this old magazine a few years ago while she was in France. It was so thoughtful, considering Catherine Deneuve (French actress, YSL muse) is one of my top style icons! Here are some scans from it. I love the advertisements – they are so telling of how women during this era were considered to be little more than housewives! So interesting! And I love some of the fashion poses.




L’oreal Ad


Another ad, “Just as she likes it… a sweater washed with SOLILAINE”


A space helmet

Jours de France


What an elegant mother!


“Not a trace of grease!” (You can even wipe your clean white gloves on it!)

And my favorite editorial:

(If I had a husband who posed like this I would have to wonder..)

Grr baby!

American boots for men.
