Lemon pie declaration of love
I would like spring to come back very much, tough. This way, my last months as a student will be just like every other school year in my life : like these spring days in high school when me and my friends would just hang out in the sun, smoking and wearing large jeans. That's how a school year is supposed to end : with the trees getting greener, the vacations getting closer and the melancoly of the summer ahead without your friends around.
Student spring is also the time to do every simple thing you will never be able to do when you start this crazy job. Like eating a lemon pie with a friend in a coffee shop, like wearing jewelry that is too extravagant to be worn at work, like writing your thoughts on a tiny japanese notebook. If the weather is nice, then it's so good I feel nostalgic in advance.
So let's fully enjoy these last few days walking in sunny Paris and sitting at cafés drinking coffee.

Comfort food for fashion
It's one of these days when you just can't do anything. The day started with a subway train incident and we all had to jump off the train and walk our way out of the dark subway tunnel. This isn't a good way to start the day, I'm telling you. That's why I've been sitting in my couch since then, watching episodes of How I Met Your Mother one after the other - it's like a drug and I just always want more of them.
Hanging out home makes me hungry though. What can you cook for lunch on a day you don't want to do anything at all ? Macaroni and cheese with some sliced ham on it. Yeah. Just like when you were five. And I can tell you it's really good, especially when eaten in front of the TV in the right outfit.
Just as comfort food is there when nobody's around to judge you, we all have our comfort outfits for the moments when nobody's around to notice you're not - at ALL - sexy. These outfits are some of my favorites. Not only because they're comfy, and you feel at home in them. Also because actually, I think they look pretty cool.
They don't ask for a lot of fashion effort : they're made of t-shirts we won't wear to go out, very old sweat pants, funny socks... and little dressing up time. Everything a true fashionista would disapprove of.
Alright, but in real life ? In real life, one can be super cute in a comfort outfit. Just like the eponymous food, it's simple, fast and comfy. That's why they're so good !

A touch of girly
Patient, pretty, careless about the rain splashing on her pink outfit, she was waiting next to a bench.
So unexpected at the corner of this grey street, on this rainy pavement, among common cars. I thought she was waving at me, catching my eye and the few rays of sun.
This little motorcycle is today's message people : even when the weather is pretty bad, even when it rains, even for nothing, dressing up pretty is always a good thing.
Good day to you all !
