Crème fraîche + Kate Bush = Summer.

These last weeks I have been  entirely into the psychedelic dress wear. In addition yours truly developed a taste for midget (aka 'Munchkin') paprika (yes, that exists ! And our little village's supermarket carries midget cucumbers, midget apples, midget carrots... all extremely neat groceries ) as well as the  taste for songs by the Vaselines. And here is the moodboard that goes with eh.. well the mood.
And it's also about some summer spring junk. I THINK I HAVE AN OBSESSION OR SOMETHING.
Boring summers, witches, teen angst, forest. The background is a page from a book on naive art called 'Art Brut'. It is so neat. My dad introduced it to me.. Note the glitter hair clip from when I was little. Iconography bracelet from the joke shop. A crystal you hardly can see. The Virgin Maria statue from a little catholtic shop in the Afro neighbourhood of Paris (the streets behind the Sacre Coeur cathedral, the best shop ever #omgz). An old note book from my mum when she was my age. Fake blue hair. Kate Bush single from my mum. THANK YOU MUM AND DAD FOR ALL THOSE COOL THINGS YOU HAD WHEN YOU WERE MY AGE.
GREASE (duh), prom, homecoming queens, surburbs, hanging around on a playground.
The background is a thrifted skirt. Toy creme fraiche can. Old Barbie hat from when I was little. Black nail polish. Glitter crown sticker. Lolly. Old Barbie dress. Rosary necklace was a gift. Glasses are from American Apparel. The poodle badge is a D.I.Y I did in art classes. The bracelet is also something I got when I was little and I pasted some old Maria pray stuff on it. Grease 2 single from my mum.

Bisou
