After our first week back in school, my friends and I went away for the weekend to a small town about two hours away from the city. We stayed in an eco cabin in the woods. We rode horses, ate delicious mexican food, drank and danced 'til we dropped. 

This is what I wore yesterday to go down to the village and to go sightseeing. 

Do you like my new rose-colored glasses? My friends say I look like John Lennon and Yoko Ono's long lost daughter but I love them. I see everything in a pink-ish hue. 

Ah, la vie en rose.

Signé Chanel

My sister, aware of my love of fashion, just gave me one of the best presents ever: 

Signé Chanel, the film by Loïc Prigent that follows the Chanel atelier during its creative process

the weeks prior to their Haute Couture F/W 04-05 Show. 

From Karl's sketches to the runway. 

I haven't been able to watch it yet (one big bohoo for homework!), but as soon as I can I will and post a review.

 For those who haven't seen it, you can watch the entire film here. 

have a great weekend peeps!

Back To School

After a not-so-sabatical year off school, I'm officially back in classes. 

New school, new city, new career, new flat...even new me perhaps? Just kidding. 

I've been extremely busy with my new classes, the whole moving thing, unpacking, wa wa wa... but there's a lot to come...

Coming up soon: Summer Illustrations, How to wear black and orange without looking like a halloween fanatic, Le Sketcherie's guide to Paris, and Le Sketcherie's take on Parisian women.  And more about my experiences in this new city. 

Stay tuned!

Paris, mon amour.

Back from Paris!

After 1 train ride, three flights and about 30 hours of non-sleeping, I'm back home from Paris. 

Lots to come!

Bisous, bisous!
