Social pressure : My life does not have …

Hello Loves!! I’m 26! Yay!!! No kids, none in my womb, no ring on my finger, I don’t have a stable job (yet!) nevertheless I’m living my best life. On top of all of that, I’m really grateful for another year. According to society, I’m a failure because I didn’t respect my “due dates”!! (Haha).

It is well known…

Le Smoking

Le smoking fait son come back! Il est bleue, vert émeraude et même très souvent rose. Le smoking est beau! On l’aime pour ce côté masculin/féminin. Mais sait-on que le smoking en question a une sacré belle histoire? En 1966, Yves Saint-Laurent présente le premier smoking pour femmes. Pour cette deuxième collection, il misera sur des couleurs foudroyantes et colorés inspirées de pop et warholiennes (Référence à l’artiste américain, Andy Warhol). Il va bouleverser non seulement les codes de la mode mais aussi les codes de la féminité. Parmi les…
