She grew up in the 6th arrondissement of Paris and her father lives in the home where she grew up...
she is planning to go back and visit for several months later this Spring and Summer.
Madame dresses in a style that is very chic. I like to study how she puts things together.
Her accessories are minimal ~ earrings, a watch or perhaps a scarf.
She has a keen eye for fabrics and shapes that flatter and fit...
ballet flats and a pair of leather loafers alternate depending on whether she is wearing a dress or black pants.
Yes indeed black pants...Madame wears lots of black.
Madame smiles a lot...she laughs and winks at her students which are a mixture of middle aged women and men.
She is a gifted teacher and although I am "struggling" to learn the language she is very encouraging and supportive.
I don't fuss too much about what I wear to French class but for fun I thought I'd show you what I wore last week..
Hermes scarf and a cardigan over top a simple black tank top.
Easy Peasy Scarf tie...
I don't like fussing.
Socks with dots...
no one would see these as they were worn inside my Clarks short black leather booties.
I wore Tulip by Fresh Sugar on my lips...
and my diamond studs.
My walking buddy gave me two books to read...
not sure which one I'll start next.
I've never read Elizabeth George but it comes highly recommended.
I read Rachel Joyce's previous novel and found it to be a delightfully entertaining light read...
this might be one to take on the plane.
It's been a drizzly couple of days but then the sun came out and shone down upon us late in the day.
Which made my heart soar...
then as if I was not happy enough walking along in the peace and quiet
an eagle flew overhead and I could hear the rush of its wings....
I am still weighing in over my goal weight but I am determined to keep walking and tracking my points.
Never give up.
Hope things are looking bright in your neck of the woods...
