I have this big fascination with lifestyles.

I think that everyone, whether they think so or not, lives their life with intention and what they choose to wear says a lot about how they live. 

Garance Doré is a french fashion photographer, illustrator and writer. I think I had an immediate connection with her when I read that she shaved her head at the age of 22 (sounds familiar). She's a blogger that doesn't just write about street style and current trends, but she teaches love and lifestyle. And the most important lifestyle of them all is the French Woman Lifestyle, where I draw a lot of my consumer inspiration from. 

A couple rules about French Woman Style:

1. Elegance is refusal- the French woman is nonchalant. Fashion is a quiet, personal matter.

2. She says NO to what doesn't flatter her- the secret is to own your own imperfections

3. She says NO to trends. Period.

4. She says NO to sweatpants- gym clothes are for the gym.

5. She says yes, forever, to her classics- things that last are cherished.

 

"The French woman does not exist! She is a myth!"
