On a rainy day here in Paris my sister and I spent most of our time in our borrowed apartment escaping the bad weather. It was actually a pleasant little breather, as I have been tourist-ing nonstop in Paris. Every day has been a long and lovely walk to some interesting destination and then an equally long walk back. After awhile, as much as you enjoy seeing new things, you just want to put your feet up and eat some macarons.
I took these pictures using my tripod in the stairwell and hallway outside of our apartment. It's a dark, narrow little space so it was quite difficult to get images I was satisfied with, especially as I quite dislike pictures taken indoors in general. Still, the outfit is Proenza Schouler inspired, so I thought I would share my slightly Gothic, school girl outfit.
Outfit details:
UO dress
Deux Lux purse
Welcome to my little blog that blends a bit of nature, fashion, wanderings, and books in this dusty corner of the Internet. I hope you find it a moment of quiet in the wild today.
really love this, especially the socks, so adorable :) x
ReplyDeleteI love your outfit Rebecca, and the stairwell is spooky in the best kind of way! :)
ReplyDelete♥ Leia
the weaving stair case really catches your eye
ReplyDeleteA day indoors sounds much needed. Although I've been enjoying your touristy posts, it must be exhausting!
I'm in love with these photos. the backdrop really enhances the outfit!
ReplyDeleteWell, your hair color makes it a little less gothic! Yeah, I used to do all indoors when I first started blogging (almost everyone does) until realizing how much more wonderful it is to take our shots outside!
ReplyDeleteyour hair looks so pretty! And I love your socks :)) I don't think this look is gothic at all ( or at least not on you!)
ReplyDeletejolie tenue. j'adore la couleur de tes cheveux
ReplyDelete*I should probably clarify that by Gothic I mean in relates to Romanticism (I also use the term romantic to mean romanticism rather than a literal love story) and architecture and history. I didn't mean to imply the literal, Gothic subculture of style...although it definitely reads that way.
ReplyDeleteI've been visiting your blog for some days and I really loved everything. Your clothes, your picutres, your posts...
ReplyDeleteThe last picture, with macro is the best.
Congratulations for your blog.
Kisses from Brazil :*
i really love these, the location goes perfectly with the monochromatic outfit- great greys. :]
ReplyDelete& that last shot, wow i have no idea how you managed that with a tripod setup. major props love
Very moody-chic! That's a pretty cool stairwell.
ReplyDeletei love the outfit, the socks really make it perfect! did you make any photos of the apartment? just being curious ♥
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a pretty perfect fall outfit and I'm going to have to find some patterned socks as soon as I stop being in denial that fall is coming!
ReplyDeleteP.S. After years of traveling/moving I pretty much have a horror of knick-knacks. And honestly, at our age, why do we want to be weighed down by a bunch of stuff? Though I can appreciate that for four years you might want to decorate a bit.
P.P.S. Tequila wasn't too hot if you stayed in the lovely interior courtyards. But the bus was pretty much unbearable... ; )
Your deux lux purse is perfect! Great photos!

Cute socks! Is your hair redder than before? Sorry if you mentioned this, I've gotten behind on my blog reading. These are some nice photos. I like the moodiness.
ReplyDeleteI agree, your hair colour looks amazing with all that black.
ReplyDeleteRelaxation is always good. Your trip to Europe looks like so much fun. I hope to do something like that someday.
ReplyDeleteyou are looking so parisian lately!
ReplyDeleteI keep falling in love with your socks.
ReplyDeleteThe colour of your hair is sensational!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love your socks, theyre adorablee
I think your hair looks luxuriously red in these particular pictures. It looks lovely against all the black.
ReplyDeleteI've read your blog for a while and I remember you mentioning that people sometimes underestimate your age. Well, with the way you look here, you put all the mistaken to shame. You look perfectly in place in Paris. Lovely!
ReplyDelete@Anonymous, Wow, thank you! That's one of the best compliments ever. :)
ReplyDeletewhat a very Frenchy indoorsy outfit. I like it. I like it a lot.
ReplyDeleteI love those socks!
ReplyDeleteThe socks and the shoes are such a nice piece of flare.
ReplyDeleteSomething about stairwells always makes me think of Alice in Wonderland and going down into the rabbit hole or something. Stairwells are the portal to another world, another universe, something dark, dreamy.
I love these photos.
