Which is, no doubt, why one of the most iconic fashion houses has a, well, iconic bag dubbed &#8220;Le Baguette&#8221;. It is like the Chanel 2.55 in its construction, but hardly equal in its popularity. In all honesty, I truly see no appeal in the Baguette, sure, the colors are fun, but 1) the bag would not practical for me on a daily basis 2) it&#8217;s nothing too special. Oh well. It&#8217;s name does make it somewhat attention-catching, however.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Buying baguettes is such an honorary errand one should take pride in; thus, do take pride in what you wear, even if it is a quick trip to the grocery store to buy a non-authentic French baguette. After all, you never know who you may run into.\u00a0I call this particular outfit the Jessica-Stam-Baguette-Buying-Incognito outfit. It&#8217;s a hybrid between Miss Stam&#8217;s ensemble above, and something Ashley Olsen would wear. Perfectly comfortable and needs not an extra ounce of thought when dressing; simple slip in a pair of footed leggings or opaque (emphasis on opaque, darlings) tights. Button up a grandpa cardigan, grab a bag, apply a coat of gloss, and don the\u00a0paparazzi-proof sunglasses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1160\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/my-baguettes\/buying-baguettes\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes.jpg?fit=500%2C264&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"500,264\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"buying-baguettes\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes.jpg?fit=500%2C264&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1160\" title=\"buying-baguettes\" src=\"http:\/\/lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes.jpg?resize=500%2C264\" alt=\"buying-baguettes\" width=\"500\" height=\"264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes.jpg?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes.jpg?resize=300%2C158&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The outfit below is one I would be especially happy to own in my closet. Yet another effortless grab-and-run morning ensemble, black and taupe-y beiges make any outfit at least ten times more sophisticated. The wrap cardigan is gorgeous; the three-quarter bell sleeves and fabric is draped exquisitely, perfect for throwing over a lace camisole that has been tucked gently into a pair of black pants. For ultimate comfort, a pair of flat, suede boots dress the tired feet. And lastly, a bag and oversized sunglasses complete the incognito-baguette-shopping look. The taupe Fendi baguette, surprisingly, is actually not as blah as its counterparts; thus, my theory that beige\/taupe makes everything and anything look better by &#8220;x&#8221; amount of times still stands strong.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes-2.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1161\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/my-baguettes\/buying-baguettes-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes-2.jpg?fit=500%2C433&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"500,433\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"buying-baguettes-2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes-2.jpg?fit=500%2C433&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1161\" title=\"buying-baguettes-2\" src=\"http:\/\/lacouturiernyc.files.wordpress.com\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes-2.jpg?resize=450%2C390\" alt=\"buying-baguettes-2\" width=\"450\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes-2.jpg?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/buying-baguettes-2.jpg?resize=300%2C260&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">I think I&#8217;ll grab another piece of bread, <em>maintenant<\/em>!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">xoxo,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">La C.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So lately, for some unknown reason, I&#8217;ve been obsessively craving bread.
