Attempts at French Chic



So, for Jessie's party in Atlanta this weekend, I donned my limp, old black linen dress with a rather rumpled sigh, then decided to get all French on the situation.  Brigette Bardot amounts of eyeliner, and some false lashes.


I decided not to worry about the effects of humidity of my hair, and go full out big.

A couple of my grandmother's charm bracelets, a spritz of Chanel, and voila!  My fatigued linen is now classic, my midsection is camouflaged, and my legs are lean thanks to some self tanner and 4 inch wedges.
I was definitely envious of everyone's trendy pieces at the party, but I kept repeating "simple and classic" to myself.  This new mantra and baby-mama budget will definitely take some getting used to. . .

  5. Twenty years from now you'll still look rockin in your classic look instead of a crazy trend.
