just a glimpse, dear.

24 January 2010 • Kimberly • Leave a Comment


After my petit post on my likes, loves and hates, in which I accompanied the text with pictures of Rosa-Fiona Bettina’s(one of my favorite bloggers!) bedroom, some mistakenly thought they were my photos (but isn’t her room lovely?). Ergo, I figured I’d not only clear any misunderstandings by showing my actual room.

Et, voilà! A photograph giving all you lovely chou-chous of mine a teeny-tiny glimpse of my bedroom! This would be Exhibit A, showing a corner of one of my shelves (on my desk). I quite like this new set-up: stacks of my magazine collection (mostly ELLE and then some), and any books of the fashion genre. On the little easel is my  f i r s t  issue of Paris Vogue, March 2008. Besides the fact that French Vogue is ze Bible of all things fashionable – in my humble opinion, of course – it is quite sentimental. I purchased it outside the shoppes of the Champs-Élysées during my trip to France two years ago whilst wandering about in awe at the magasins and the Arc de Triomphe.

{+} Toblerone is my favorite chocolate in the entire world, without a doubt. It is indeed the key to my heart.

{+} I kept a Starbucks coffee cup for good measure. It looks quite cute as decoration, no?

{+} That adorable little book, Paris Chic & Trendy, is absolutely brilliant; in it are the chic-est boutiques & designers of France with beautiful photographs and descriptions in French and English. I bought it at the Louvre’s souvenir shoppe whilst in France.

{+} Yes, I do have an English-French/French-English pocket dictionary on my shelf. Alas, it is not in my pocket.

♥

bisous,

La C.

    So fun to get a glimpse into your room! I love the magazine stand! Perhaps I have to get one too now, for my Elles, sadly I own no vogue yet;-)

    I have both versions, Le Petit Prince/The Little Prince. The french one is definitely more charming.
    Pass the Starbucks and Toblerone, please.
