Stripes of Nouvelle Vague

Inspired by my twitter friend LeTrainBleu I started thinking of cinematic wardrobes I wouldn't mind wearing right now...It's a super procrastination thing to do!
And there are so many images I am thinking of that I can't find! Like where is the image of Diane Keaton on the beach in the Hamptons in Play it Again Sam in the perfect perfect summer outfit?

"Pierrot Le Fou"



and Jules et Jim

Toujours Toi at TG170

I just dropped off TG170's TT order today. TG170 has been open since '92 on 170 Ludlow St. NYC and it's such a wonderful store!

I met Jeb who works there, she has like a story book of the most beautiful tattoos on her arms. There is probably a Toujours Toi piece for each of them

travelling light is so last year


you find all these treasures and then you have to actually carry them home.

It's getting better all the time

Life is a Beach for Jenny


I love when people send me photos of themself wearing Family Affairs or Toujours Toi (hint!)
here is Jenny Tran my graphic designer (we ARE working on the website for Circe) with her Life Is A Beach suit..get it now on sale online for $54

we all scream for ice cream!

Did you know I had a ice-cream parlor out in Orient? Me neither. And here are some of our treasures, on top is my I scream puzzle!

ps: I am not wearing a wig, It's just fluff hair

bon

I just created this gift certificate (it also exists in English). If you want to give someone Toujours Toi but don't know which piece the special person would like to have just email me at nina@toujourstoi.com and I can send you a "Bon" for the requested amount or pieces

I can see for miles

There is a magical place called the reuse center in Greenport, people bring stuff they don't want anymore and if you go by and you are lucky there is something good to pick up, and it's all free. We had the thrift-perfect timing, when we got there this woman just carried in a box of sunglasses and she used to work at Ray Ban, so I now have round Ray Bans and Stella has a pair of fancy Anne Kleins...

and yes I just ate a brownie

more from where that came from

all summer glowy, beachy (even without beach) boho after just a few hours in the Northfork!
I am wearing a Family Affairs Japan edition Smilie t-shirt while having the best coffee and Scone at Aldo's in Greenport. Aldo handpicked mint in the garden because Stella wanted an "Iced Mint Tea"

let's go let's go!

and guess what we did on saturday?? thrifting like there was no tomorrow, Garance, Stella and me were a top notch team. thriftaholics! the treasures we found, oh wow.

Let's just get away and travel the seven seas in amazing dresses. PS: I didn't buy any of these things..

and we did

connecting dots and getting away

Hi!! I've had my first day off yesterday for the first time in an eternity. I did not even turn on my computer! uuH!! I feel so great and recharged from our little get away to the Northfork, Long Island.
Two of my favorite people finally met; Garance and Stella, and yes they hit it off, they were also dressed to match when Garance picked us up from the trainstation.

Zeze is a popular dog! irreststible

Garance is wearing her Rainbow Warrior necklace!
