14th of July

There could not be a better occasion to play with the new sales items I found in Paris last week.. the pretty dresses by Maje (still available here) work beautifully worn as a tunic as well, and the simple but elegant thong sandals by Chanel have a perfect heel, which makes them so comfortable to wear.

Red and blue are definitely the colors of the week, and my fun and gorgeous feather bag charms by the talented LuxeLeatherCrafts arrived in time to join the party!

Continuing to draw inspiration from the current Hermès windows by teaming my blue sales dress with a new MaiTai Collection statement piece.. a Chrystal Cluster necklace in Charcoal Blue (also comes in Lavender Grey and Cinnamon Rose). My initial thought was to to introduce the necklaces for the festive season, but having tried them with various summer capsule pieces, I found that they are fabulous for all year round.

Variation in red with a Crystal Cluster necklace and matching bracelet in Cinnamon Rose

One mustn't forget that Rossinis are the perfect cocktail for this time of year, whether it is Bastille Day or not (for a recipe please click here)!
