雨

Today's location is a charming french village near Bordeaux. You might wonder why there's a rain coat and an umbrella in the set. It's because I decided to use the weather forecast of the location to create my blog post as I want to create outfit for different weather types. If you look at my previous sets, you might notice I have a tendency to create outfits for sunny weathers and never colder than chilly. So since the weather forecast for Saint-Emilion today was rainy, I decided to add a rain coat and an umbrella to the outfit and go for rain boots instead of regular shoes. And aren't those boots the cutest? I totally love the bows!

Cent

A hotel in Ireland's horse country (two counties known for their stud farms) is today's location, so I went for a horseback riding style, western riding to be more precise (not to confuse with English riding, which is the one with the very chic outfit). I'm not saying I'd ride a horse with that outfit. I wouldn't. I was simply inspired by western horseback riders, but made it chic thanks to the Ferragamo handbag. It's amazing how one accessory can change a look.

Tóg go bog é

A chic outdoorsy look for a hotel people go to to do outdoor activities. This look could be fit for some outdoor activities, but I created it with the idea of relaxing at the lodge stylishly.

An Mhór Chuaird/Au revoir Londres

First, the outfit. Very relax and comfy while still being cute. Perfect to see the Ring of Kerry, which is quite a sight to see, even if you spend quite some time in the car.

Second, the London 2012 closing ceremony. It was amazing! My favorite part was of course the Spice Girls, as it reminded me of my childhood, when I had no idea what the lyrics truly meant as my first-language is french (I did understand a few words, but I thought "2 becomes 1" was about candles...). Anyway, it was a really fund closing ceremony to watch and very sad to see the olympic flame go out.

Corca Dhuibhne

As you can see from the pictures, the Dingle Peninsula is quite a sight to see. To go with this location, I decided to create a look that was casual, comfy and cute at the same time. The green top and the celtic knot necklace are to go with the irish theme. The oxford shoes go perfectly with the "casual, comfy, cute" idea behind this look.

Век живи́ — век учи́сь

I actually found this hotel, which was built in 1824, inspiring to create this look, thanks to the description in the book. The green dress is a wink to Ireland, the tee is to be worn under the dress because I always found strapless dresses to be a bit odd for day wear and the detail of the tee adds an extra dose of loveliness to the dress. I went again for nude pumps. I seem to have developed a soft spot for nude pumps. I added a bit of glitter with the clutch and some metallic notes with the hair pin and the necklace.
