La vie est fleurie

School has officially started and I will henceforth be buried under tons of work. Decided to celebrate the last of summer by donning this flowery too-short-for-school-dresscode skirt...to go back-to-school shopping! Amidst the binders and notebooks, picked up some intellectual reading in the guise of the latest Glamour and InStyle (hahahaha!). Incorporated a bit of vintage - sheer shirt was my mom's from the '90s which she brought over with her from Russia. And the '90s are making a comeback, if TeenVogue is to be believed.

The title is inspired by my Le Petit Prince - my latest favorite novel, even though I did have to read it over the summer. En francais. It's just one of those sad, sweet novels that are perfect for both adults and children. I recommend. <3
