One Night in Paris


(A.P.C. coat as a dress, White+Warren striped sweater, H&M hat, Thrifted sunglasses, "Natalie + Dylana Suarez x Modern Vice" JETT boots)

Yes, Dylana and I did one night in Paris during our Europe adventures and it may have been the best last minute decision we've ever made. Taking the Eurostar from London at around 5 in the morning seems crazy, but it was totally worth it. We arrived super early in the morning as the sun was rising (more on our day adventures soon), but honestly, there's nothing better than the moment when night falls over Paris. Suddenly everything is a peachy gold, you can see the Eiffel Tower, and the sun's reflecting off the rim's of countless cute bicycles. I brought one coat to Paris, a classic wool A.P.C. coat that buttoned up, turned into the best little Parisian outfit to date. With a hat, it reminded me of the French "Madeline!" You know, that cute little Catholic-school girl from that children's book we all know and love? Yep, Paris has got me smitten. I'm even in love with seeing people walk in and out of bakeries just to grab one baguette, that I almost walked in a bought one myself, just to say I did it.

Ugh.

Can you and your sister stop being so cool? Please?

You guys travel the world and make each city look so hipster stylish and chic. I love it. You bring the perfect amount of grunge and class together for this effortlessly amazing look that is so hard to recreate.

And that picture of the man in the pink sunnies w/ the pink shopping bag is PERFECT.I am seriously in love. I may frame it.
