More Modern Marie


Lee Junghyun

Bonjour Mes Amis!


I have been poking around some old images I have on the desktop and just wanted to share a little bit more "Modern Marie" inspired images with you. You can see the first Modern Marie post here if you would like.


Enjoy!!!






This is a gorgeous Marie worthy room from Loft Life Magazine. I can't get past that enormous dripping chandelier (my ultimate weakness)!






Dior dresses on the steps of Versailles. Could you just imagine Marie and her companions the Duchesse de Polignac and the Princesse de Lamballe lazing away the days in these couture confections!?! Oh my!




This image from La La Lovely is just too pretty for words. The soft Pink bound books, the simple stark colors, the clean glass bottles, it's perfect.

This image via Simply Seductive blog is breathtaking! I could waste the day away on this
canapé while tasting a macaron or two. Could you think of a prettier place to rest your gorgiously coiffed head?



Finally, my favorite part...the Louboutins! These are chic and Marie all at once. They are the Lady Page Loubou's and they are delicious!


Have a great weekend my friends. Please visit again as I have a special post demain about a special friend who has made my blog somptueux!!!

à bientôt!

  4. Dearest Judith,

    I don't know how you find all of these gorgeous pictures. You are the queen of prettiness. I just LOVE the third to last image....I could revolve an entire room around it.

    Hope you are having a lovely day, my friend.

  33. I had not caught up on your blog in awhile and it is such a pleasure to think of Modern Marie! I'm especially crazy over that chandelier from Loft Life and those unbelievable Loubies - such a cleverly camouflaged platform on an elegant and cheeky shoe!
