Ok, where to start... First Paris' influence seems to be surrounding me more and more these days, for example with this Dior suite that I can't stop swooning over (Dior is French, the suite however belongs to the St. Regis Hotel in New York). It's almost too beautiful to put into words, but that of course is Dior. If you're lucky and can spend a couple of thousand dollars a night you can actually sleep in it. I, however, am a very lucky girl today to have won the limited edition 'Paris Party' print from Ooh La Frou Frou, in which the Frou Frou girls are enjoying a glamorous night in a Paris' apartment. Isn't it too adorable? I already see it as a reminder of Sandy's talented, imaginative, novelettes that make me visualize and feel every beautiful, luxurious detail every single week. She has gotten even more creative, because she made a poll with outfit suggestions from other bloggers for what Aimee, one of the girls, would be wearing on her Valentines date. I opted for either a red Valentino or Lanvin dress, which you can see via Sandy's poll. Aimee will be illustrated in the winning outfit, how fabulous is that? I'd say head over, dream away with the novelette and cast your vote!
Lastly the incredible fashion illustration in the living room above is made by Bil Donovan.

Love this Dior suite, Christel ... and at such a lovely place, the St. Regis! {one of the Ooh La Frou Frou City Girls (Cherie) has a fantasy apartment in the St. Regis!} ... I mean, if I'm going to create a girl's fantasy, it might as well be fabulous, right? Lol Love your beautiful blog, Christel.
ReplyDeleteAnd congratulations, sweets, for winning the print giveaway and thank you for your fabulous suggestion on Aimee's glamorous date dress! ;)

It is a gorgeous suite...every single inch of this space was so well thought out and designed in reverence to the House of Dior. I am so honored to have the opportunity to create images to reflect that magnificent legacy. Thank you for the lovely comment.
