Midi's Lover

Dress : Asos / Clutch : Asos / Flats : H&M /

Midi dress is my favorite type of dress.I guess its because Im in love with 50s.Fifty's are simply my life,I love everything about them : from films and music to fashion and art.Thats why I would love to live there but Im living in XXI century and anyways every time has their pluses and I still can wear dresses from 50s and watch films from this time,so its all good.Sometimes I prefer to wear midi's in a modern way.Its still classy but not that retro looking.For casual days Im wearing it with some flats and clutch or any small bag and the most important thing is to put a belt on your waist to make your body more feminine.Also I like how you can dress this dress up or down,you can just throw a blazer and go for studying like this or put on some heels and statement necklace and you can go to any party,theatre or any special occasion.Moreover I love this interpretation ot the check,its not the usual one with some turquoise stains.Thats why this dress is my favorite and I just want to wear it every single day.

The uniform

       Blazer : Tommy Hilfiger / Shorts : Romwe / Shoes : Asos / Bag : The Leather Satchel Comapny ) / Hat                                                                 : Asos / T-shirt : Zoe Karssen /

When I was studying at school I never liked our uniform.In primary school we had really weird dresses,one of them was grey and another in colour bordeaux,but I was small and didnt think about that much.But then high school happened and we had really stupid navy vests with the symbol of our school.Everything about it was awful and I tried to wear it as rarely as I can but we had to wear it every single day.I was okay with white top and black bottom but not with vest,so I was kind of forgetting it every day at home.And Im stil wondering who designed our "gorgeous" vest.

Im a big fan of Gossip Girl and I was always watching it and asking "why dont we have a cool school uniform like they have,because I would wear it all the time".By the way,the stylist of GG is genius.Can we just talk about Blair's style?Preppy,classic elegant.Just everything that I like.She is totally a style icon.

I fell in love with this blazer immediately.I feel like I just graduated Cambridge University or Yale.As Im going to study at university this year Im definitely going to wear it a lot.I think that the uniform can set you on the right mood to study and also professors will treat you kindly and will see you passion for studying.I should say that in Russia,probably in every university 90% of girls or even more are wearing short bodycon dresses and very high heels to university every day  and I never understand them,like where the hell are you going?university?oooh please...you must be joking.Thats really stupid.It feels like they are coming there not for studying.So back to my outfit,I added some skorts,white t-shirt and a satchel to the blazer and it all looks like a uniform and to spice it up i just added some spiked loafers and a hat,which makes it more interesting but still preppy and classic.

Today is a very exciting day for me,because I'm finally starting my blog.I was working on it for some weeks and I'm happy to introduce it to you now.So how did it all started? I was blogging since 2011 but recently I realized that I changed a lot and my blog didn't match me anymore and that I want to start from scratch.So here I am with a brand new blog.

What is the meaning of  French Cactus?I think these two words can describe me,my style and my character perfectly.I can be an elegant french lady,wearing midi skirts and pearls,while being a "cactus",wearing ripped jeans and leather jacket.

My blog is going to be not only about fashion,but also about travelling,art&culture,and things that matter to me.My goal is to inspire you with my articles and photographs,to give you some advice on how to style and wear clothes,what places to visit and things to see and I hope that I can bring some positivity in your life :)
