A combination of tags and readers’ questions. (tag from ediot & sharon-rose!)<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\"lace-1\"<\/p>\n

What are you wearing today?<\/strong><\/p>\n

White button down with a black lace bra peeking through. A pair of skinnies, and black peep toe pumps.<\/p>\n

Why is today special?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s the first day of spring break, and the weather is gorgeous. I spent the majority of the day outside on my deck, re-reading Pride & Prejudice<\/em> and some of \u00a0Sense & Sensibility<\/p>\n

What is your current obsession<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

Blogging (of course), thefashionspot, Swank Heights, It’s Her Factory, French movies, MAC lipsticks, YSL tributes (the sandals in particular), anything chocolate, straw fedoras, window shopping online, dark smokey eyes & bronzed skin.<\/p>\n

What are your\u00a0weirdest\u00a0obsessions?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yellow nail lacquers, chocolate spread on white bread.<\/p>\n

What would you like to learn to do?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Speak & read French adequately. Breakdancing could potentially be a cool thing to be able to do. Random, I know. But I did make a disclaimer in the early days (when I had well, zero readers) that dance is almost my life.<\/p>\n

What’s for dinner today?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Shrimp scampi! Delicious. I can smell it cooking in the kitchen!<\/p>\n

What’s the last thing you bought?<\/strong><\/p>\n

A pair of patterned tights and a MAC lipstick. I’m quite excited; they are to come soon in the mail!<\/p>\n

\"lace-23\"<\/p>\n

What are you listening to right now?<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Make it Work” by Ne-Yo. Old, yes, but somehow it popped into my head today (songs tend to do that). I’m completely obsessed with the dance to this song on So You Think You Can Dance<\/em> a few seasons back with Dom & Sabrina. A-mah-zing. I’m learning it.<\/p>\n

What is your favorite weather?<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the 70s, sunny, with a slight breeze. Not too hot, but cool enough to avoid any heat flashes that are completely un-fabulous.<\/p>\n

What is on your bedside table?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My Hello Kitty alarm clock I have had since I was, oh, six or seven and still works like a charm. A stack of the current April magazines along with my favorite issue of Vogue Paris (March 2008, I had bought it in Paris!). My Korcula ring in it’s lovely box. A silver\u00a0candelabra as decor. And a little trinket box I had made with assorted items in it. And a lotion.<\/p>\n

What is your most challenging goal right now?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Attempting to curb the temptation of eating Godiva chocolates, stressing out, and procrastinating. My weaknesses.<\/p>\n

Where would you like to live, ideally?<\/strong><\/p>\n

If financially tangible, I would love to have an apartment or flat in New York City and one in Paris. Oh, the life!<\/p>\n

What would you like to have in your hands right now?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The winning lottery ticket. For many reasons, not just selfish\/greedy ones! I promise you I do not constantly pour over materialistic items. Okay. Maybe most of the time. It’s only human nature.<\/p>\n

\"lace-3\"<\/p>\n

What would you like to get rid of?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My procrastination habits!<\/p>\n

If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?<\/strong><\/p>\n

PARIS. Maintenant!<\/em><\/p>\n

What language(s) do you want to learn?<\/strong><\/p>\n

French!<\/p>\n

Who would you like to meet?<\/strong><\/p>\n

There’s too many to list! The Obama family, SEAH!ui (my blogtwin), Carine Roitfeld, the French Voguettes, Frida Giannini, Alber Elbaz, Michael Kors, James Franco,<\/p>\n

One thing you could just steal from someone without regret?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I shall not steal, but attain that designer [insert item here] with my own moolah. I shall be quite accomplished and feel much more proud of it! On second thought, I am quite tempted to snatch anything from Miranda Kerr’s closet.<\/p>\n

What is your dream job?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Editor\/fashion director or editor of a fashion magazine. Like ELLE, my absolute favorite magazine. Being a stylist would be amazing too.<\/p>\n

Bisous,<\/p>\n

La C.<\/p>\n

P.S.: Read Part II here<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
