It's no secret French women put as much effort into their chic ensembles as they do their pretty undergarments. For them, there's no excuse for letting yourself go, no matter how old you are. The same goes for divorcèes, the single ladies, or the hitched. Isn't this the very reason we both love and envy Parisian women?
So, in my effort to take better care of myself and feel a little foxy this upcoming year, I first turn to lingerie since my lingerie drawer has been looking a bit sad these days. I'm making it a little mission of mine to revive its spirits and freshen things up a la Parisienne.
Princesse Tam Tam has been one of my favorite lingerie brands since this doll introduced it to me years ago, but it's been impossible to find here in the States. Now, ASOS carries a great collection of the Parisian brand and the pieces are just so adorable. Isn't it the perfect balance of simple and sexy?
