My Take - French Connection Serpent Dress

Diane Kruger (TFS)

Dress: French Connection - Jean Vest: DIY Levis - Heels: Sirens - Necklace: Stitches - Bag: Birthday gift from my sister

I'm back from a week long vacation from the blog as I took the time to celebrate my birthday with my family and friends. It was one of my best birthday week ever...I just love that my friends are always so inclined to celebrate. Here are some of the things I did while I was gone:
  • Laughing so hard that I could not catch my breath which resulted in me sounding like I was having an orgasm...more laughs ensued.
  • Hearing Steevie Wonders for free...and I do mean hear as the crowd was way too intense and we couldn't even see the stage.
  • Bumping into Mary-Kate on my birthday while I was buying a bottle of water and realizing that my battery was not in the F*?"*(& camera.
  • Camping in the driveway and waking up everyone because I was screaming in my sleep.

The picture above is an outfit I wore to one of my birthday parties, it's the serpent dress by French Connection. Now I do realize that it was an IT dress in 2006 but I own it and I still love it. At least, mine isn't golden like the one every celebrity was wearing at the time. I dressed it down a little bit with a DIY jean vest. What do you think??

Je suis finalement de retour après une pause de blogging d'environ une semaine. Disons que je me suis permis de prendre un peu de temps pour célébrer ma fête avec ma famille et mes amis. C'était sans aucun doute l'un des plus beau anniversaire de toute ma vie...j'adore que mes amis soient toujours partant pour fêter. Voici quelques-unes des choses que j'ai fait pendant ce temps:

  • Avoir un fou rire tellement intense que je ne pouvais plus respirer ce qui me donnait l'air d'être en train d'avoir un orgasme...encore plus de rires.
  • Entendre un show gratuit de Steevie Wonders...et oui, je veux bien dire entendre parce que la foule était tellement intense qu'on ne voyaient même pas le stage.
  • Tomber sur Mary-Kate lorsque j'étais en train de m'acheter une bouteille d'eau et me rendre compte que je n'avais pas de batterie dans ma caméra,
  • Faire du camping sur le pavé avant de la maison et réveiller tout le monde parce que je criais au meurtre pendant mon sommeil.

La photo ci-dessus est l'un des nombreux outfits que j'ai porté pendant que je célébrais ma fête. Il s'agit de la robe Serpent par French Connection. Ok! Je suis consciente qu'elle était la robe IT en 2006 mais je l'ai et je l'aime encore. Au moins, la mienne n'est pas dorée comme celle qui était porté par toutes les stars. J'ai choisi d'ajouter un veste de denim DIY pour rendre l'ensemble un peu plus relaxe. Qu'est-ce que vous en pensez??

first of all TALK ABOUT A B I R T H D A Y present!!!! bumping into MK!!! amazing, lady! so happy for you! did you speak to her? where did you see her?

I had that dress and just gave it to my aunt's consignment store! Unfortunately it never looked HALF as good on me as it does on you- you look amazing in it!!! and i love your birthday stories! so glad you laughed your heart out during your week away from blogging :)

I was kind of on a sequin binge in 2007 and i also have the one Diane is wearing and every celeb had...i still have it and i still love it and in the winter months, i'll wear it with my leather bomber and ripped tights. it's a cool outfit. i think it fits me far better than the silver one.
