French fashion- the little black dress guide
It has been a while i wanted to talk about French fashion. I work on etsy, it is international and also handmade so the fashion on etsy is always different from what i see in the streets of Bordeaux. But then i realize even the neighbour Spanish has their own picks from fashions trends. So i started to look carefully what are the French women choose from over all Fashion trends.
Black is always in.
"The little black dress" always stays at the top 10 in French women`s wardrobe. Actually not even only one, every year a new one enters the wardrobe. So to dress like French get a black dress. But not an over detailed one. Simple one. We will work on details with jewelry and accessories. Which French women loves and loves. They do not go out without jewelry. Actually this is how they bring color and personality in that simple black dress.
Here is our black dress quite simple and does not have lots of details almost we can say plain. But something like this can be quite handy. Day and night it can take you everywhere just with few change.
Black dress from River Island
Earrings missbabacilu etsy
Necklace from Asos.
This is a quite elegant look and can be cool for both day and night. Christals and pearls are usually the tricks for to brighten up the boring winter. Like Christmas. What we would do without Christmas. As the lights of Christmas warms up our life. Pearls and christals lights up our winter.
What about for those summer and spring days. What we do with out little black dress? Of course it is still in the top for French women. Then we change the jewelry again.

Etsy raffle for the extreme beauty of ordinary days
Hello everyone,
Every ordinary day is pretty and we all risk to lose a loved one....

| Lovely items from Sandra |
It started few months ago not so long ago. She told us her husband was diagnosed as lung cancer. Soon after we had received the bad news. That was really fast. I feel our hands are tied to this cold enemy sometimes. Many of us had lost a member or more to cancer. But as much as the event what is left behind is important. Our friend Sandra lives in Portugal and she has a little son. For those who don't know about the life in south Europe. It is quite hard and as i know social security is not good. Since her husband was ill he could not earn money and she is earning her living from etsy. For those who work on etsy full-time would know how hard to make a living from it. Even as someone sales regularly end of the month with all the taxes and expenses is quite miserable sometimes. So we as europeanstreet team members decided to give her a little push, a little hand to make the living a little bit easier for her and her son for few months. Until they, psychologically ready to face the world.
So we decided a little raffle. Not a simple donation. So by buying tickets you will have chance to win a price. There are more 50 prices. Each tickets cost 5 dollars.
Tickets can be bought from here http://star-of-the-east.blogspot.fr/
You can also buy something from Sandra. She has very lovely jewellery and homeware.
I have donated my lovely pink leaf barette.
