California Road Trip

I took those pictures on my last Cali-exploration, I'm not quite sure when I will have the time again to go and discover more about California but I know I'm dying for a road trip! 

  I want to go there and watch california poppy grow again, even just for a day...

California Poppies grow wild throughout California from February to September, closing their silky petals at night or in the cold and wind, and opening them again the following morning...  In flower symbolism, poppies are associated with beauty, magic, consolation, fertility, and eternal life...

Dear Vintage Lover

My litlle African print bag gives the right touch to my French stripes.

-A classic outfit poped up by a little touch of colour, perfect for a chilly late summer day out-

I've been trying to incorporate some interesting west african prints -called it Wax- into my designs.

So I'm working on my next pieces and they promise to be colorful and fun!

Have you met Song Preservation Society ?

    Well, I did- After a month spent in Paris, the next day I landed,  it's was time to reconnect with San Francisco again. So I decided to take a walk around the Lower Haight and check what was possibly new around Aline's Closet on this sunny afternoon !

This is how I  stumbled across a wonderful trio playing guitar and singing on an orange couch in  Duboce Park, right a block away from Aline's Closet...I found the scene really cool and it suddenly felt like a warm  " Welcome back to San Francisco, Aline ! "
 – Song Preservation Society  were live recording "Circus", and making a little project with The Living Room Sessions. Please enjoy! There are so talented!  They will be playing again in San Francisco:

So today must have been my luckiest "marketing push day" ever:  while I was at the shop, early shooting with my 1st American TV( I've been interviewed by Comcast's TV for "Inside City Limits"!)Sarah one of my lovely client/SF girl with cute bike/ bloger of Simple Diva stoped by the shop to tell me she has posted on her blog about Aline's Closet ! I was really excited to hear that !

Today I felt blessed, and it really makes me happy to share my world with others. Thank you very much.
