joyeux noel in paris!

i have been dying to start moodboard-ing for months now, and the timing of finding moodshare.com could not have been more apt as i am about to start packing for my week in paris!

i cannot put into words how excited i am to see the city decked out for the holidays and then spend new years there with boyf and his family. naturally, though, the second thought after "MUST. HAVE. MACARONS" is: "WHAT AM I GOING TO WEAR?"

i am always big on dressing for the environment i'm in, but it is never more true (and yet, so much more difficult!) is when i am traveling. i am not delusional enough to think that i will be able to pull off a true parisian look - but i don't want to stick out like a sore....american? (for lack of a better word...) and let's be honest - there are going to be TONS of photos taken throughout the course of the week, so how can i NOT try to look amazing?

with that - this is my very first fashion board - and surely not my last (NYE in paris outfit coming soon!)
