5 propositions

I spent idle moments on Polyvore imagining 5 Spring Summer outfits around the Etoile Roy knit.

Prop n° 1: A bit Riviera and Boulevard Saint-Germain.


Prop n° 2: Basic and casual look fit for the actual weather (maybe with an extra layer of themal)


Prop n° 3: "The bourge" as in bourgeoise, perfect lux accessories and understated look.


Prop n° 4: Late Spring, early Summer chic and casual city look.


Prop n° 5: The trendy look of the season, a mix of nude and bright colors.

ahhh, LOVE your ideas!! I already did outfits very similar to 2 and 3, but am too excited to see what 1, 4, and 5 would look like on. I think 4 is my favorite of the group, very unexpected (for me anyway) and fresh. One day I'll have to finally attempt shorts, but good shorts are so impossible to find!

I think that I prefer the casual look, but I love the Vanessa Bruno blazer. I never got the blazer+shorts combination, though. I mean, when it's warm enough for shorts, it's too warm for a blazer! I love the look, though, just don't think I could get away with it.

still cold as hell over here, so this psot makes me long for spring so much!

it's -4°c this morning.... brrrrr....

Love the collages. I usually keep to a cool color palet in the spring, but start thinking about adding more beige and sandy colours now.

Prêt à Porter P: I had such a crush on that Miu Miu tie-dye clutch! I'm always looking for it on ebay or at least for a substitute!
Oh how I want to be a "bourge" (3rd look)! It's the kind of quiet but not boring outfits I love.
Heard on the radio, there's a Super loto tomorrow, I think I'll take the chance. It's the only way I'll ever own the items featured! :))

Thanks S! I also like the way the knit's styled in the ad but it's not really my style and it would be too "copié-collé".
I find that shorts a little "baggy" but never tight and too short are easier to wear.
Like these by Isabel Marant http://www.style.com/fashionshows/complete/slideshow/S2011RTW-IMARANT?event=show2182&designer=design_house1294&trend=&iphoto=40#slide=40 and http://www.style.com/fashionshows/complete/slideshow/S2011RTW-IMARANT?event=show2182&designer=design_house1294&trend=&iphoto=34#slide=34 in a sporty vibe are the kind I'd go to. Not the skimpy short-shorts she did!

Garderoben: I guess it depends on the weather and the materials of clothes.
I often wear a linen blazer in late Spring or Summer with shorts, it's more like a cardi. Mornings and soirées are often fresh and it adds a bit of structure to an otherwise very casual look.

Dahlia: Poor you! Don't tell me it's still snowing! BUT we're in March, official Spring time is near. Let's keep positive!

Vegalyn: Ah, it sucks. In Paris the temperatures barely hit the 1°c in the morning lately. So much for the pre-Spring outfits I had in mind! I'm wrapped up in my cashmere scarf and piling up layers! :))

Dank je wel Toothfairy!

Gosh, you made me want that knit so badly. ;-)

Love every single outfit you put together, especially the last one.

Thanks q9y8! I really like that knit. I've made the shops rounds but haven't seen an equivalent for Spring
