Je voulais, voudrais, voudrai (pouvoir) prendre en photo des sacs à main qui me font craquer, qui me donnent envie d’arrêter leurs propriétaires pour leur demander de poser, juste quelques instants, le temps que je capte le sac avec en partie le bras ou la main qui le maintien.
Je ne suis pas une voyeuse, je ne suis qu’une observatrice de ce que MOI je trouve beau.
J’estime que c’est un compliment quand on demande (gentiment) si on peut prendre en photo votre sac ou tout autre accessoire, non?
Du moins, c’est de cette façon que moi je le décris et que je le perçois quand on me pose ce genre de question…
Celui, si dessous n’est que le mien, mon sac à moi, même la photo dessus est la mienne, donc je n’ai aucun mérite puisque je n’ai arrêté personne pour immortalisé cette séquence !

avec ma gueule et mon look de “babcool” arriérée je ne peux passer à côté des noms (et look) comme “Woodstock Hobo”, Combat boot ou un jean destroy. Oui ou non, ai je passé l’âge? qui peut me le dire? sauf si moi je le ressens bien sur…
Le but est de se sentir bien dans ses “baskets”, et c’est littéralement le cas, je reste ce fait seul, s’installe naturellement. Même si des fois on frôle le ridicule c’est avec charme, ça fait sourire et pas pleurer.
A partir d’un certain âge, si on a pas pu le faire avant, il faut vivre, se vêtir, respirer pour soi si on le peut et on le veut.
D’où mes “flashs” chez Shopbop :

Current Elliot B. jeans

Woodstock Hobo de Be & D

Jeffrey Campbell Combat Boot

Oooooh La La for a fresh look!
(a little best-of) basics for your pleasure, for a peachy-healthy look, for the fun just plunge into the world of “Benefit“.
I am 56 and I had finally found a make-up brand appropriate to my age, my wrinkles, my weird-looks. I can now go around looking “fresh” with nearly no trace of a “mask” like make-up!
The original definitions borrowed gracefully from their site for our benefit after all, no?

Hmmm the "eau de toilette" "Laugh With Me Lee Lee"
“woody floral – a light blend of citrus, jasmine & lily blossoms. a naturally light scent with a classic feminine style“

"Original rose-tinted stain is kiss-proof, see-through color for lips and cheeks. It's the sexiest flush you can get from a bottle!"
at last!
He is my “Dylan“, a name which played it’s part even with or without a “Bob”.
I am from that generation so I believe we were meant to meet, I found him like he found me!
With his “drop rise loose fit” this “cropped jean” (size 31!!!) is exactly what I needed after putting on 5 kilos since I stopped smoking… No wonder the brand name is “CITIZENS OF HUMANITY“
I just avoided buying a torn one…
I have a husband too, but he wouldn’t lend me his jeans!! And (entre-nous) a boyfriend sounds better than a husband, even when well used, no? So I went for it, bought it, wore it right away and felt at home, it was me, I felt part of it.
I could go on and on writing o jeans but it would bore you so I will zip my mouth here and button up my fingers.

The closer you get...

"Boyfriend" captured in the mirror
After hanging loads of necklaces around my neck I did realize that my arms felt “naked”. I missed the piling up, the sounds it made, the jingling and, last but not least, the fact that HE heard me coming (or going)!
I must have a problem, trying to impose myself through a kind of over-charged image, it is true that you cannot go unnoticed if wear a certain amount of jewelry. The quantity when the quality is poor makes it somehow more original and easy to wear… a personal opinion. I feel at ease hidden under all that ‘junk” sometimes, the funnier it gets the safer I feel. But don’t get me wrong, it is personal and for my comfort among the mass of people…it is not that I want to be noticed, on the contrary usually, but I just have to feel different, faithful to myself, and “all decorated” I am in harmony with myself… weird or a matter of taste?
Here are my last acquisitions, at H&M, looks crowded but feels (and sounds) great! :

In color...

don't even count

or in B&W
Listening to Leonard Cohen’s “Live in London”, sounds better every single time, the pleasure is intense, you just want more. The video-film of the concert is even more moving, emotionally more than what I expected and it completes what I missed when I saw him in concert live near Nice last summer… the frustration of just hearing and not seeing has vanished, I just enjoy every instant, second of it now! Memories of that summer night, about the same time last year, come back like flashes, it was like zapping through trees, heads, images just went by till the tip of my toes couldn’t stand it anymore. Now I enjoy the show as if I was there once again but sitting right in the front row this time!

In the sky with Leonard...
and not what fashion is trying to impose you through media,visuals, shows or any other ways they use to attract your attention!
Ignore those messages, listen to your heart, feel what you want to wear (not what you HAVE TO) and you will end up having a style of your own, a style that’s as unique as you are which makes perfectly sense!
Whether you dress up for yourself or for the others… that is a very personal choice. I stopped doing it for others years ago!
You feel good in ALL STARs so just wear them, you want to put all your bangles, loads of rings on just put them, you want colors or not just mix things up….as long as you feel natural they will all suit you and look perfect on you!

I LOVE THOSE STARS!
Whatever makes you feel good will make you look even better!

Hands can talk...
