Here’s a dress I found on my latest trip to London. Camden, in the North of the city, offers a fascinating choice of cutting-edge fashion shopping, all at a reasonable price. I had my picture taken in front of a Riviera yacht – where else if in France in the summer!
All thought the sunny season I’ve had fun wearing the dress with different accessories. Different hues of stay ups and pumps have added to to the dainty garment’s charm. The night in question, the Mediterranean breeze was gently whisking so I opted for sturdier stuff – white washed jeans. Gave my look more of a contemporary edge.
The neckline is like a jewel of its own. Just a pair of longish earrings and the deal is done.
Gray can go for warm seasons too if you accommodate it accordingly. What do you think about gray plus summer temperatures? With the fall approaching, there will be more gray around. The latest Chanel window couples it up with purple. More on those colors soon. Have an inspiring weekend my dears!

Susu, this dress that you write about is the kind of find that makes a girl giddy for a long time. it is so cool and chic. i like gray all year round. it has that ability to be cosy in a wool sweater kind of way, or cool, light in color when the temperatures rise… have a wonderfully chic weekend dear You!

Audrey – Gray does adapt to so many different shapes, situations and materials. And it’s a lot about what you mingle it with. I can just see you cuddling up in a soft gray angora wool sweater as you type your new book away!

I love the grey color too but only the very light shade of grey! It goes with everything and I love to mix and match with other colors! I do love the neckline of your dress…at first, I thought it was a necklace. I hope you had an amazing weekend! xxxoxoxo

Gorgeous dress… I love the neckline and I do have a weakness when it comes to grey. I find it to be very versatile and suitable for all seasons. I also agree about Camden shopping – when I was a student, it was my favorite place to get a good bargain!
Lovely blog by the way! Greetings from a fellow expat in Paris

Shin – Gray does often need a more colorful companion. My weekend was very sweet. We had a Tex-Mex dinner with my sweetie to celebrate our six years together.
