Paris Green Sweater + Neutrals

Rember that thing I used to do... when I would take photos of my clothing, and then post them on this blog, telling you where each piece was from? Something called an outfit post??

Yeah, I forgot all about those too.

The reason I haven't been doing outfit posts is simply because I wasn't able to pack my tripod, and it's extremely awkward to attempt outfit photos without one. If you've ever tried, you feel my pain. Trying to prop up my camera on a chair or table (or on a chair on top of a table), also making sure that it's pointed at the right angle, in focus, and lit well is extremely challenging and irritating.

However! I asked my new friend Katie if she'd take a few shots of me as we were enjoying the rare sunshine in the Parc de la Tour Saint-Jacques. There will probably be far less outfit posts than there used to be now that I'm in Paris, but that just means more posts on the city itself!

{I've been embracing the natural texture of my hair. And I loved the loose fit of the sweater. Two very French things. Also, I'm crinkling my nose, and I dont'really know why.}
{I ordered these BDG Cigarette High Rise jeans from the Urban Outfitter's website. I was nervous they wouldn't fit correctly, but I've been wearing them nonstop! I also have them in black. The high/mid rise holds it alllll in}
{Loved the open knit detail on the shoulder, I also loved the color, which reminds me of the green used in the film Amèlie}
{I thought my dark red nails were a good contrast to the green. I paired the sweater with a neutral scarf to bring even more focus to the beautiful color.}
{These oxfords I got at Goodwill have yet to be broken in fully, they're a bit tight on my wide feet, and made my Achilles heel sore the next day.}

Pumped up Kicks

I've been looking for the perfect flat shoes for a while now, and I am pleased to say that I have finally found them! I can't imagine how I've live my whole entire life without owning a pair of genuinely comfortable shoes - it's literally like walking on a pillow, or a cloud... a heavenly, beautiful cloud.

I paid a pretty petty for these beauties, but I have to admit, it was SO worth it. I'm beginning to embrace the idea of investing in quality pieces. They last longer, they feel better, and they elevate your outfit instantly. I could not be happier with my purchases today.
