I think I just found my go-to dress for the summer. I love the comfortable fit, the pockets, and open back design. It’s the perfect dress for those lazy summer days or dressing up with a pair of strappy heels. Have a great Monday!

Here is the third Secret Garden video from Dior (the first and second). Once again, French fashion is displayed to perfection – chic, luxurious, and effortless. This time the story begins in the hallways of Versailles, moves to the gardens and ends in the orangerie. All enchanting environments and worthy of Dior couture. Enjoy some fashion, Versailles and Depeche Mode!

Taking a break from your daily makeup routine is always refreshing. Or, at least minimizing the number of products/layers applied in the morning. These are 3 of my favorite products, and consider the perfect staples for keeping it simple. What are some of your favorite makeup staples?
This short clip by Dior is another beautiful display of French fashion at it’s best – balanced, chic, and effortless. The 2013 fall collection is brought to life at the Grand Trianon. The main purpose of the Grand Trianon was to provide an escape from daily court life at Versailles. King Louis XIV ordered reconstruction on the current palace in 1687, as the porcelain on the first palace was disintegrating. The structure we see here, is twice the size and made of beautiful pink marble. Just like Versailles, the Grand Trianon is surrounded by beautiful gardens and forests. Enjoy some beautiful architecture, Dior, and Depeche Mode!
This short clip by Dior is a brilliant display of fashion, history, architecture and aesthetic. French fashion is highlighted as being a perfectly balanced mix of chic minimalism and effortless luxury. The Hall of Mirrors in Versailles is (naturally) the most appropriate setting for this clip. When construction on the Hall of Mirrors began in 1678, mirrors were still considered a great luxury. The 17 arched mirrors are matched by 17 widows facing the Gardens, letting in the sunshine and breathtaking view. Enjoy a little bit of elegance and Depeche Mode!
