french lesson
Hanging out with dozens of effortlessly chic French women is how I spent the better part of Sunday. I took my kids to an Easter party-fundraiser hosted by a few friends for a local French elementary school. The poolside setting had all the trappings of a South-of-France rendezvous, complete with kir royales, straw fedoras, strappy sandals, Birkin bags and a scorching hot sun. After I devoured the poached salmon and asparagus lunch and fed my kids handfuls of chocolate, I endeavored to crack the secret of French summer style--and I can tell you this: it starts with something classic, fuss-free, and bare-leg-friendly. Something like this louche print tunic, along with...

Love the top. Is Monsoon in the US, too? (Thank you!)
Darn! Blue & white top sold out--
do so enjoy your blog- cheers!
GREAT OUTFIT...but blue top not available:-( Do enjoy your blog- keep up the good work
The top sold out! Hopefully, Monsoon will re-stock. It is based in the UK (no stores in the US).
The sandals you picked are lovely but a REAL French woman would only wear K Jacques, from St Tropez.
I just discovered your blog during an Alice down the rabbit hole Pinterest journey! LOVE it! Subscribed and can't wait until I'm not at work to go back for a longer look!

Love the whole look. Perfect for simplifying life.
Saw your sister's beautiful photos in C magazine. That's where I first learned of your blog last year. You both are taking on the west coast by storm.
A gorgeous look... xv
Nice combo <3! I'm French, I would definitely wear this! But unlike "Anonymous" said, a real French woman doesn't exactly care about the brand of her sandals, as long as they're comfortable and stylish, like any woman in the world ;)
