Recherche : “Chloé”
–
Remember this little drawing from a few months ago?
When I drew it, it was the outfit of my dreams: a beautiful red coat with black bows and Chloé motorcycle boots that are both tough and feminine at the same time.
Now that I own the outfit, I am finally in a position to bring the drawing to life and immortalize it in photographs!
What better way to showcase it all than a walk through Versailles along with my fiancé and a raspberry flavoured mille feuilles on a sunny Sunday afternoon?

Music: The Kinks – This time tomorrow

Vous souvenez vous de ce dessin, réalisé il y a quelques mois ?
c’était un peu ma tenue rêvée à ce moment là : un beau manteau rouge avec de petits noeuds noir, et des bottes chloé façon motard, mais féminisée.
Ayant à present ce manteau, ainsi que ces bottes tant désirées aux pieds, je peux enfin immortaliser la tenue dans la réalité !
Et quoi de mieux pour réalitée qu’une ballade à versailles avec son fiancé, accompagné d’un mille-feuilles aux framboises, par un dimanche ensoleillé  ?

A few new little things in my home today, both in my closet and for decoration:
A beautiful dress, some feathers, a flower with a good smell, a very small heart, and also a cuckoo clock making too much noise !
Have a good day, and also a lovely week end !
