Happy Friday! 

My little cats, you're crazy! It's so good to read you! Thank you for the warm and vibrant welcome to our Jimmy Fairly x Make My Lemonade collaboration! Thank you 1000 times, and don't forget to enter the contest until tonight! But the craziest thing is that you haven't seen everything: the packaging designed by me, the little polka-dot cloth inside the case, the golden engraving inside a branch, the little fruit candies in the box! In short, it was a great experience and I'm so excited to read your comments! And there are even some men who get involved to win glasses for their sweethearts! You're perfect, don't change a thing... 

As you can see, I'm still wearing my dungarees... But at the same time, it's far too practical, with the phone in the front pocket, the hands-free kit and the bike, I can start work at 9am and make my phone calls on the way to work... Today I've prepared an article on "3 ways to" wear dungarees to avoid looking like Mario Bros... I'm not going to lie to you, you're going to hear some little jokes because I don't know if you've noticed, but open-mindedness isn't the most widespread quality, but that's okay, they're just clothes! At worst, you'll get a new nickname... But you'll be able to answer: "Uh... Mario Bros, does he wear his overalls with 12cm heels maybe?"...

My favorite look, I think... I'm wearing an XL headband. Cult Gaiaa white COS shirt from a long time ago, but there's another white shirt with perfect dimensions. herea Zara fluid trench from this spring but there is a very nice one available at UOa pair of dungarees Urban Outfitter (to be rolled up to reveal the ankles). Tired slippers Sonia Rykiel which I adore.

And for the last look, which I wanted to be more "romantic", I'm wearing a top in broderie anglaise that I've had for years from Anna Sui, but with any little lace top it'll be perfect, a raincoat in plastic-coated lace (intergalactic love). Top Shopglasses Jimmy Fairly and DIY pumps to be found by here!

And for the record, I'm currently spending a lot of time with someone who doesn't speak French very well, and when I put on my overalls for the first time he asked me what they were called in French: and I told him: une SALOPETTE. I could see the perplexity in his eyes, and in a voice that wasn't very convincing, he asked me "you mean it's a clothe to be a "salope"?... Big laugh. Sorry for the language, but this anecdote is so cool, and I love the idea that Mario Bros isn't a plumber after all, but a promiscuous woman....
