I DO! Well, while over at
Garance Dore I noticed that there was a Q&A with Joanna from
A CUP OF JO about how to dress more French. It was very insightful. Here is one of my favorites. But check out the whole set of questions and answers right

I think the French woman does something what I refer to as “unconscious layering.” It’s an expression that I’ve just made up for the purpose of this interview because the French woman loves to use English phrases to sound cool.
So, the FW often pursues the art of unconscious layering. It comes from the very popular concept called ‘%$@&!-I-don’t-have-anything-to-wear-this-morning-i’ll-just-grab-whatever…’

I found myself an awesome bike today. I am a true Portlander now (it only took me two years). I now have a vintage Peugeot Mixte bike. His name is Pierre and he is a stunning, vibrant blue! I have a stylish and functional ride now. And my lovely boyfriend is going to make sure he is running perfectly for me. Now I just need another sunny day in Portland.
This isn't my actual bike (looks just like Pierre though). I'll take a real picture of him soon.
