I've been back in South of France for the last week or so. Being home has been like a breath of fresh air after what seemed like an eternity spent focusing on just work, work, work.
The first few days the weather wasn't great, but for the last five days we've been in true summer fashion, 33 degrees and all. We jumped on the occasion to go for picnics at the lake followed by homemade fireworks launches, or even onto a little sailing trip at the sea. I've eaten incredible quantity of fresh home-cooked meals and read a million magazines in the sun. In other words: heaven.
And fashion wise? Well.. Since I'm at my parents in the countryside with not much to do except sit in the sun, I've been sticking to basics. I've "borrowed" two pairs of jeans from my dad that I've cut into shorts and bought not one, but three Breton tops at Petit Bateau. Two t-shirt versions and a slightly warmer one for night time. I guess when something works... you'd better stick with it. Breton tops and cut off denim shorts have long been my Summer uniform so no surprise here. I also went to town to purchase a pair of black espadrilles yesterday so I guess my country side summer outfits are sorted! I've been longing for a straw hat to complete it all. Should I? Should I not? I'm in love with the Karen Walker one..
