Black is my go-to color. Safe. Always good. So imagine my surprise when at the Aix en Provence market these bright colorful splashy outfits caught my eye taking me back to a younger self. I wanted all of them. But my practical side kicked in: how many coats does one need?
If ever you are in Provence the best markets (not brocantes) are in Aix en Provence (T, TH, SA.), St Remy (W), Apt (SA), Lourmarin (F) Isle sur la Sorgue (S) St Maximum (W)…
A colorful play of plaids, flowers, strips mixed together with various types of fabrics… and it goes together or at least in my opinion it does.
Being of the shorter model this might be a bit much, dreams of being tall are just that … a dream, and wearing
something such as this might make me look as wide as I am short. Should I care?
And before you ask… no this is not what I see French women wearing.
Though they could wear a brown paper sack and make it work.
Color is in, and patterns too but not necessarily all at once.
Little ripples instead of big splashes.
This one I liked best and regret I didn't buy the whole look.
Though I rarely care a purse…
The interior of the coat had a red base floral design.
This outfit appeared the most subtle out of this colorful lot of mix and match. The black pants probably have something to do with it…
Loved the wide legged pants.
Yellow appears to be a big color this autumn.
Would you wear or like any of these?
