Inspiration du jour: Le sport princier de Ferragamo

(via stylediary.ro)

I am entirely head-over-heels for Emmanuelle Alt's casual yet attractively chic take on the "Ferragamo lady's" aesthetic. It does look like an easy look to approximate, but truly requires a well trained eye for detail in order to flawlessly merge together classic elegance and le sport. The wash of the jeans is elusively impeccable and crisp – why on earth are jeans like these extremely difficult to find? Annoyingly, the rare pairs I somehow manage to unearth are always repellently embellished or just the wrong size or cut. Regardless, you can't possibly disagree that these jeans are very pretty to look at, even though they are 'just a simple pair of jeans'. Truth be told, I have a thing for rolled-up jeans in the right wash and cut like these ones. Informal and chic! My penchant for the classic Ferragamo Vara bow has yet to cease increasing in intensity. I'm just waiting for the right hardware and leather. Nice bag as well.. all in all it's a desirable look. Good thing I rediscovered this picture today, as I've been feeling slightly uninspired as of late.
