Channeling Antoinette

It's no secret Marie Antoinette was a fashion icon, so much that after centuries her opulence and style are still remembered. Tiny Bird's hair for the Black Swan Swansong fashion show reminded me of the long gone french queen and it made me wonder how would Marie Antoinette look like if she lived amongst us in these modern days? And here I bring to you my attempts, or my guesses of what a modernized Marie Antoinette look would be like. Pastel colors, flowers and bows reign these looks.





Which look do you like better?

    Aww tyvm Vanity! I wasn't sure about blogging the blonde look, since it didn't have that much of a Marie Antoinette feel, but I figured that since it was a modern interpretation it didn't have to be so literal.

    Thanks!! <333

    I love these, the ambiance behind it, the choice of colors, the softness and the simplicity, and that bag...omg, that bag!
    You make me want to eat cupcakes..with marie antoinette! (yes, I'm a sofia copolla fan)

    p.s. I love both looks, I think they compliment each other in all ways!
