Le vintage, j’adore. et en particulier dénicher des perles rares sur le net.

Sur ces deux look, je portes quelques pièces vintages venant de The urban collection, un super site.

Il y a pleins d’autres jolies choses d’ailleurs, donc n’hésitez pas à aller faire un tour. En plus je suis sur la page d’accueil en ce moment.

Music: Coconut records - West coast

Vintage is something I really like, especially when it comes to find some great clothes on the net.

In these two outfits, I’m wearing some very pretty vintage clothes from The urban collection, which is a really nice online store.

I’m even making the cover at the moment, how nice is this seriously ?

There’s plenty of other nice items there, so make sure to have a look !

Ho right, I cut my hair. Not that I wanted to have them shorter, but they really needed it. And it’s a change for once.

But anyway, I will definitely let them grow until next summer.

-

Oui, oui, en effet j’ai coupé mes cheveux. Non pas que je voulais les avoir plus courts, mais ils en avaient tout simplement besoin.

Et puis ça change pour une fois. Il n’empêche que je vais les laisser pousser jusqu’à l’été prochain.

Aaaaaah! ton premier look est magnifique, Alix!
je crois être la nana la plus bizarre du monde avec les chaussures, je dois avoir un coup de foudre par un pour une paire, et là ça tombe sur ces merveilleux papillons…
J’ai cherché sur Urban Collection et sur Soho Labs, et je les touve nulle part. Aidez-moi! Quelqu’un! Aaaaaah!

La robe et la veste à sequins sont fabuleuses. Et que dire des shoes!
J’aime beaucoup tes collaborations avec certaines marques, comme AA, Chevignon ou ce site vintage. Je ne sais pas si on te laisse carte blanche ou si ils cernent bien ton univers, mais à chaque fois je reconnais ton style et ta touch’ c’est un vrai plaisir! J’espère que de plus en plus de marques se rendront compte que les blogueuses ont plein de choses à apporter à la mode, surtout leur personnalité.

et j’y retourne : tu me flingues ma journée mais c’est inattendu et super chouette !

La première tenue est absolument fabuleuse, tu es vraiment splendide. En plus, les chaussettes, c’est mon dada, alors bleues en plus ! Puis cette combi a une forme et un motif parfaits. Et je ne parle pas des chaussures, de vraies perles comme tu le dis si bien.

 
Comment by heleen
2009-09-18 11:39:34

I’m leaning towards the first outfit - the floral pattern and the shoes are just adorable. And your hair looks so pretty, too! I always thought of autumn as a time for re-invention, a simple haircut does just that!

J’aime beaucoup ces tenues !!! Pis pour les cheveux, j’ai vécu la même chose il y a quelques semaines, ça fait mal au cœur mais s’ils sont abimés…
Question bête, chez quelle marque as tu trouver ton vernis à ongles ? C’est exactement la couleur que je cherche en vain !

Je viens d’aller faire un tour sur Urban collection et j’ai pris 2 paires de shoes !!
(des ballerines cloutés et des petits escarpins rouge avec noeud)
Par contre ça met a peu prés combien de temps pour les recevoir ??
renouvelle t il souvent leur stock ??
