Hi everyone! This is Claire talking 🙂
You may notice that today’s look is a bit more colourful than usual. Let’s say that this outfit is like a tribute to my teenage self with her colourful teenage style from the 2000s 😉
I bought this vintage leather baseball jacket while I was still in Manchester. The little detail to notice on it is the embroidered “K”, like my surname’s initial. So, I thought it was so funny to stumble on it, that I had to bring it home.
We shot these pictures at dusk, in a very cold Geneva. Shooting pictures in a fun fair was on my photographic wishlist for quite a long time. The neon lights really give a different atmosphere, don’t you think?
Once again, I am wearing fishnet tights, but in a more discreet way. As a matter of fact, it becomes a little detail on the ankles and one could notice another fishnet detail peeking through my sheer black top. But it is not an “obvious” kind of addition to the outfit, which I like here.
Now about the Converse sneakers. Who does not love Converse, seriously? I have owned so many pairs over the years, beginning during my teenage years. I would wear them over and over again until they would be completely torn out and covered with inscriptions of my favourite songs’s lyrics in black ink. I would wear them in Summer AND in Winter (yes, what a foolish idea!). Put in a nutshell, I think that these shoes just go with every outfit and add a casual hint. What do you think?
So this look is indeed a tribute to my teenage years, but with an adult touch: subtility.

Coucou tout le monde! C’est Claire qui parle 🙂
Vous remarquerez certainement que cette tenue est plus colorée que les tenues que je vous présente d’habitude. Disons que ce look est un hommage à mon moi adolescent arborant un style coloré d’adolescent des années 2000 😉
Tout d’abord, la veste. J’ai acheté ce blouson de baseball vintage lorsque j’étais à Manchester. Le petit détail à remarquer, c’est le “K” brodé dessus. “K” comme l’initiale de mon nom de famille. J’ai trouvé cette coïncidence tellement marrante qu’il fallait que je ramène ce blouson à la maison.
Nous avons pris les photos au coucher du soleil, il faisait glacial à Genève. Prendre des photos dans une fête foraine était sur ma “wishlist photographique” depuis un bon bout de temps. Les néons flashy créent une atmosphère toute particulière, n’est-ce pas?
Encore une fois, je porte des bas résille, mais de façon plus discète. En effet, la résille devient un petit détail sur les chevilles et on pourrait d’ailleurs (avec un peu de peine), discerner le même motif à travers mon top noir légèrement transparent. Mais cette addition de résille n’est en tout cas pas “frontale”, ce que j’aime ici.
À propos des Converse… Qui n’aime pas les Converse? J’en ai possédé tellement de paires toutes ces années, depuis mon adolescence. Je les portais encore et encore jusqu’à ce qu’elles soient en mille morceaux, recouvertes des paroles de mes chansons préférées inscrites au marqueur. Je les portais été comme hiver (oui, c’était une très mauvaise idée!). En un mot, je pense que ces sneakers vont juste super bien avec n’importe quelle tenue et ajoutent une touche casual. Qu’en pensez-vous?
Donc ce look est effectivement un hommage à mon adolescence, mais avec une touche d’adulte si je puis dire: la subtilité.

Such a great look my dear Claire! I love Converse All Start Sneakers too (I mean who doesn’t right?) and love pairing them with fishnet stockings! I have black boots but need to have a same pair too, like yours 🙂 Such an inspiring look!

Hi Claire,
the location an the lights are really amazing and you chose a great background for the shooting. I like the contrast of the neon lights, the dusk and your outfit very much! The idea to show us your teenage look transformed in an adult outfit is great. I love beanies and I agree, Converse can be worn with so many different pieces 🙂
Good night my friend :-*
