    Fashion Vlog |DeziStyle in Paris

    Paris at any time of year has it’s own bit of magic.  I spent a late afternoon in September strolling through the streets of the city, soaking in the warmth of the sun and subtle sounds of birds, beeping horns and murmur of people chatting away.  However, all seems to pale in comparison to the grand standing Eiffle Tower.  It’s difficult not to gawk at the incredible display of iron lattice work that pierces the satin blue sky.

    In this vlog, you’ll take a stroll with me through Champ de Mars and get into a little mischief.  For details on this outfit, click here.

     

    Special thank you to Richie Chance for your videography (and patience)!

    With summer now being a thing of the past, I couldn’t help but reminisce through photos from my September travels through Europe.  Time has flown by but my senses are still tingling with the sights and smells of Italy, Paris and Copenhagen.  It’s hard to believe the holiday season is already upon us and it’s time to jet set again.  But first, I wanted to share a few more unpublished photos from the trip with you all.  Au Revoir!

    A city that has bike lanes, great food, city wide rollerblading parties and a green light district.  Copenhagen should be renamed ‘Dopenhagen’.Eurotrip

    Opulence is an understatement when it comes to Versailles.  No expense was spared to build this incredible chateau…and it shows.  Each crevice was intricately designed with detail and luxury as the pinnacle of utmost importance.  Versailles has been listed as a world UNESCO site for some time and rightfully so.  This incredible palace is one of the most famous and integral parts of 18th century French art and history.

    People always talk about visiting Paris in the spring time but I’m here to let you in on a little secret:  Paris is even better in September.  The Luxembourg Garden is an exquisite place to visit if you find yourself in Paris.  In September the crowds of tourists have drastically died down and you tend to find yourself more likely amongst the locals reading books, practicing tai chi or jogging through the park.  The grassy area that sits at the back end of the lawn serves as an ideal place to set up a picnic or lay under the trees.  With over a hundred statues, a café, children sailing boats in the pond, the sprawling flower beds and cozy benches scattered about the garden, there’s something for everyone in need of a tranquil afternoon.

    With no set plans, I roamed the garden for a couple of hours and really tried to take it all in.  It was a unique experience for such a large, bustling city and I was glad to have finally had the chance to see it.  The weather couldn’t have been more perfect for such a leisurely stroll through the orchard.  The beaming sun was sporadically interrupted by cool breezes, making this jumper the perfect outfit for such a day.  Unfortunately this particular one is no longer available but ASOS has an incredible array of jumpers and rompers to choose from that I most definitely recommend you check out.  I’m stocking up for fall since they are just so easy to slip on and go!

    Paris is for lovers.  Everything about this city defines the word.  From the cafes to architecture, history, fashion and bustling streets dotted with high end shops, Paris is filled with poetic inspiration.  Can anything possibly top an afternoon spent under the Eiffle Tower with someone you love, indulging in cheese and wine?  I can’t think of many things at all!

    The thing about Paris, according to my native friend, is that Parisians tend to stick to blacks, navy blues, a particular type of red and not much else.  They kind of have a muted sophistication when it comes to fashion. It’s as though they dress in the same monochromatic tones I tend to think of when I envision what the city must’ve looked like many years ago in old black and white photos.  Of course these traditional traits are always being tested by non-Parisians and eccentrics alike but it’s a surefire way to stick out.  I’m quite sure I did, as my bare midriff caught plenty of stares (and a few scoffs) as I walked down the Champs-Élysées and made my way to the Eiffle Tower.  But, I’ve never been one to pay any mind to unadventurous dressers…hey, at least I tried to coordinate my colors.

    So, with day turning into twilight and romance floating through the air, my handsome fiancé decided to re-propose.  He’s even more of a hopeless romantic than I am.  He always promised that he would propose multiple times in multiple places for the rest of our lives and I’m not one to complain.  What a smush.  Le sigh- one more reason to love this city… J’aime Paris. xx
