Stéphanie Zwicky’s blog first came onto my radar thanks to the wonders of Pinterest. I just don’t have that many French blogs on my list. Goodness knows why, we all know that’s where style comes from, right? Haha. The short and the long version is that I fell for her smile, her blog and the effort she puts into the French/English translations to save us ALL from the wonders of Google Translate. I was charmed. I was a fan immediately. And since then, my Pinterest board is PACKED with her outfits. Add Stéphanie to the list of bloggers I want to be when I grow up! So let’s do this thing.
THE LOOK
One word. Chic. If you were looking and searching for a single word to describe this style, it’s chic. Sure it’s modern, feminine, stylish and wonderful. But above all things it’s chic. In my grown up dream world my wardrobe looks like this. Classic cuts, beautiful clothing and elements of fun. But before I go all fan girl and stop being helpful, let me give you my two cents about recreating it.
Start with modern classic pieces. The leather skater, some pleather/ponte pants and add some peplum. Stéphanie takes these modern classic pieces and mixes them with trend colours, vintage styles and her own personal ‘look’ to create a universally stylish look that seems personal. If you get what I mean? There’s a common thread, a feel to the outfits that is distinctively her. When replicating this look, don’t forget to add your own personal touch.
This look is textural as it is visual. Layers of contrasting fabrics. Chunky with sheer, leather with chiffon. The contrasts are what make it interesting. So get that leather jacket out and pair it with your girliest of party dresses. Take those golden shiny brogues and pair them with a t-shirt. Contrast your texture with your styles with your colours and it’s going to be a win.

I love number 5 but Fashion to Figure don’t post to Australia! Soooo sad.
That’s frustrating but get in touch with Mel Woods of The Curvy Cartel {via eBay or email me for her address} and she may be able to add it to an order for you. That’s where I got that Forever21+ dress.
Love going to her blog to look at all the pretty pictures, haha 🙂
