Week's Playlist Numero Uno : My Life as a Movie

Dear lovely person out of 7 billions (I know we are a LOT of people on this planet..),
on this wonderful Saturday night I decided to intruduce my first weekly post! I think it's time to have some kind of concept around here and music is something that I love so why not go this way?
I got inspired for this one by Rookie, you know the online magazine made for teenage girls (or more older girls) by Tavi Gevinson, well they did those playlists inspired from movies or very interesting persons and I thought it was a very good idea so I kind of borrowed it.
To make it more my own I'll go more in the bands inspiration or moment of the year or just my mood. But before that I thought that you need to know a bit about what I'm listening in general which is I must say very weird and eclectic ahah. Anyways it's called my life as a movie. Basically you just hit random on your Itunes and you write down the song for every part of the movie, it's actually quite funny. So here's my life as a movie!
P.S I took this on a little girl's blog ahahah so some scenes are weird and in general it's a very bizarre movie but it was fun to do!

A Story in Fashion and Music

Hello everybody!!!
So as you know, or may be not, I absolutely adore musicals! I wish that one day I'll be able to go to  see one on Broadway, Wicked would be pretty awesome.. :)
So tonight I decided to do some outfits based on some of my favorites, I had some problems with my computer so it didn't came out as I wanted but the intention was there!


Chicago: The story of 2 stars of a cabaret who got arrested for killing somebody. It actually become more of an excuse to be more famous.

West Side Story: The story of Romeo and Juliet but more modern. It sets in NY and it's between 2 gangs. 
West Side Story
Sweened Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, enough said.


I guess musicals is not everybody's thing but it's great for inspiration!
Which one is your favorite musical of all time???

Chanel c'est également le nom d'une fille (Chanel - SS 2012)

One of the things I love about fashion is how everything is just soooo big, I mean wow factor X10000. This video illustrates just marvellously well this statement. When I think big, crazy, wow, wonderful I obviously think Chanel. Look at this video, this runway is giganormous (yeah new word props on me) and there's models coming from every side it's like a snowy maze but with people knowing exactly where there going. Just fabulous! The clothes are great too! Karl Lagerfeld is, if you ask me, a genius, props on him!
So enjoy this video, it's very cool!

+ + + Watch out for Florence and The Machine doing a performance!!

How To Love

I know it's been a while since we had a little talk. Busy is the good word. I'm taking the time just to share this video with you. It's kind of saying for me what I'm feeling right now. I guess the weather helps a lot.
Just remember, never forget How To Love.

Pra Pra Pra

Helloooooo,
today I'm in a very good mood which is good :)
Right now I have to say that I'm very old fashion. My music is old, the style that I'm into is from another decade, my expressions, well let's not talk about that saperlipopette! I'm watching old movies too, reading old books...
Even this collection, that is far from old, kind of remind me of another time, especially the head wear. But what a great collection! The fabrics, the patterns, the high-waisted shorts, and the colors, wow.
So let me introduce to you, Anna Sui Spring 2012 RTW :)




















Feeling kind of old?? Naahh never, that's classic babe :)

The Sun Is Up, The Sky Is Blue, It's Beautiful and So Are You

Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?
Dear Prudence, open up your eyes
Dear Prudence, see the sunny skies
The wind is low, the birds will sing
That you are part of everything
Dear Prudence, won't you open up your eyes?
Look around round
Look around round round
Look around
Dear Prudence, let me see you smile
Dear Prudence, like a little child
The clouds will be a daisy chain
So let me see you smile again
Dear Prudence, won't you let me see you smile?
Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?

Well good morning, or good night depending on where you stand at this very moment in the planet. Being in Gatineau it's 10:43 AM. Why I'm telling you this, it's because I have a little thought for the girl who was living in my house while I was in her house in a completely different time zone for the summer. Dear Prudence from The Beatles was on the wall of her room, but instead of Prudence it was Shealee. I absolutely loooove this song and not a lot of people knows it, but from now you will.
Apart from that, it's probably my last post before the first anniversary of my blog, this blog, omg time flies. On next Sunday it will be a year. So I guess I need to finish this wonderful year with an outfit post, wouhouuuu. As you all know songs often inspired me, I was talking about blue skies, so I put on me favorite blazer in the world, and of course it's blue. I'm telling you I'm on fire today. So here's a couple of pictures of my outfit today, the thing is that I'm soo happy I can dress like this to go to school, even if people thinks I'm too dressed up.



 I hate when pictures are blurry...





Well Hello Blazer: H&M, Cami: Urban Outfitters, Pants: Zara, Shoes: Suzi Shier


Another thing I wanted to ask you and I need your opinion guys: Ottawa Fashion Week is coming soon and I want to go so bad, but I can't afford to pay to go. I was wondering if I should apply as a media or something.. it sounds kind of weird and I'm really not sure, so what do you think??
