Consider this round 2 in my ongoing love letter to Clémence Poésy and the sheer perfection that she is. She’s the epitome of charming, classic, and effortless… that little slice of Parisian chic the rest of us all wish we had even a teaspoon of running through our blood. Girl crush material x a bajillion. Naturally, I couldn’t resist this lovely editorial for Glamour UK where she amps up the sweet, colourful, and romantic without a care in the world. Dear Clémence: Please be my BFF. Sincerely, Krissy. Until then, I’ll just hope I can channel even the smallest ounce of her loveliness into my daily life. Starting with balloons. I could carry a dozen rainbow coloured balloons around, right?
P.S. Has anyone seen Birdsong? It’s a two-part television series (?) she stars in along with Eddie Redmayne. I’d really like to, just need to set aside some quality curl-up-on-the-sofa time.

Is anyone else watching ABC’s period drama Pan Am? I’m kind of loving it. It’s so stylin’. Girdles aside, I wish I had a snappy blue uniform. I hear the ratings are dropping through which is major, major sad face news. I usually try not to watch new shows when they first air as I always seem to get attached to the ones that get cancelled quickly. But there were so many shows that premiered this season that caught my eye and I broke my rule many times over. Pan Am is my favourite drama that premiered. It’s a great combination of mystery and drama mixed in with moments of comedy. Plus it’s a pretty show, and it totally feeds my wanderlust.
The story centers around four flight attendants (and two pilots) as they travel the globe flying for Pan Am airlines. Outspoken Maggie…
…Kate, a newly enlisted CIA information courier…
Kate’s younger sister Laura who left her fiance at the altar to experience the world she never knew…
… and my favourite, sassy Francophone Colette.
I’m crossing all body parts this show will live long enough to mature and come into its own. It’s a visually stunning period piece (for which, I’m a like a moth to a flame), and I’m already finding myself invested in the characters and their success. There’s so much potential for growth and I really want to know more about lovely Colette and my other favourite, Kate – her CIA storyline is cause for much intrigue!
What new shows are you watching this season? I’m also hooked on Ringer (sooo bad it’s good and I can’t look away) and New Girl (adorable & geeky and I heart it). Anyone else watching Pan Am and wishing to live a jet-set life traveling the globe?
