In a park above paris
Oh look, the green coat is back…hopefully not for long though as I’m looking to buy a classic black coat with my birthday money as mint green just doesn’t cut it in the midst of wintery January. Anyway, I’m going off topic as the real star of this outfit is the top/dress. I mean what more could you want from an item of clothing – turtle neck, check; silver velvet, check; interesting split up the front; check. And to top it off, it was just 1€. Perfect.
I have paired it the only way possible without leaving little to the imagination, with my new black Monki jeans that were a Christmas present from Lewis. They are super comfy being high waisted and tight but stretchy. I had been on the hunt for a new pair of jeans so I am so glad he took the hint when I tried these on just before Christmas.
#JeSuisCharlie
I am absolutely appalled, angry and upset (to name just some of my emotions) that there are people ready to not only kill human beings but to kill them for exercising a basic human right, freedom of speech. This was not just an attack against Charlie Hebdo or not even, more specifically, the journalists who work there; it was an attack against one of the key principles we live by, freedom of expression. Perhaps we sometimes take this right for granted but last night people gathered in their millions across France in support of this right and in sorrow for yesterday’s attack. I was at Place de la République where I felt very sad but also proud to be among such strong people standing up for what they believe in.
