these vogue spain scans of vanessa paradis wearing ripe white tops and embellished tweed jackets, incongruously combined with dilapidated dungarees...


...inspired me to recently wear this jacket with a favorite bowtie top and too-big, moth-eaten jeans:

what do you think, is it a fitting tribute??

{ tom ford anouk sunnies, elie tahari for neiman marcus jacket (recently seen HERE), jean paul gaultier top, men's calvin klein jeans, kenzo for wolford stockings, prada shoes (i've had 'em forever, but just rediscovered them in my studio last week!) }

Dare I say... your outfit one-ups Ms. Paradis'! Love the rugged look in black and white... gives the outfit and ambiance of the photo a rustic feeling!

PRADAS FROM 2006!? (If I'm not mistaken) I've always found those shoes so ethereal and edgy.
I hope I can have them as part of my collection one day. They're so grand...

My favorite part of your costume is the Jean Paul Gaultier top. Right now I'm really into more traditional looking business wear mixed with casual. Love this look.

Great look!! :D
Your jeans is perfect to the Pradas!!
Even better than the original
Your Prada shoes are perfect!

The shoes and stockings are the cherry on top! Perfect masculine feminine combination... the cuffed denim with the bows and lace. Loving what I'm seeing!
gorg! i love the stockings with your prada's...cute!

Everything about this is classic and ideally so. The white shirt, the black jacket, the jeans, the black heels... and it still looks fresh and unique.
Great styling!
So great! I love those jeans and that jacket. Normally wouldn't think to see you in a jean like this since its rather more relaxed but i adore it! go girl!
i wander, i wonder
i can see how you were inspired. i like this a lot! very classic with your own spin.
loved your look, great colour of your jeans
amazing inspiration

I'm so in love with your haircut and what it does to your face!! it looks amazing!! And with the sunglasses! It's a shame my face wouldn't look like that :(
anyway.. i like the complete outfit, yours it's better!
good luck! Kisses!
Love this outfit!! You have such a great eye, and those shoes are so pretty.

It is indeed, what a gorgeous outfit. Love the contrast between the two, and especially the romantic pussybow against the old jeans.
Woah your look is hotter!!!
Loves it,

Gorgeous! I love it!x
You and Joan Juliet Buck (http://www.paulwhkan.com/pq/shorthair.html) have inspired me tremendously of late! I have slowly gotten brave enough to cut my locks. Just wanted to say thanks and love the shoes!
YES!
Yes! It definitely is!
Love the jeans!
A very chanel outfit deninitely....Karl Lagerfeld could have picked it out for you!!!.... :P
I love those Vogue shots, Spain has some killer editorials lately! I think you channeled her perfectly, I lover her she's so gorgeous and these outfits are perfect. Simple and sophisticated where true beauty comes out.

I love the whole outfit, but the shirt and the shoes (oh...the shoes...) deserved a second look.
In my next life, can I come back as you?
usually i thought folding jeans will make your legs look shorter
but this looks very stylish
cool styling :)

I don't comment very much on your blog because you're so inundated with comments I always wonder if you ever have time to go through them all, but on the chance that you do, I have to say - I am a FAITHFUL follower of Glamourai - you are my one must-read blog every single day without fail. I love everything you put together, but sometimes you create an ensemble that makes me SO excited to try and recreate it. This is one of those outfits. It's simple, really - jacket, blouse, jeans - but looks un-frigging-believable.
Thank you SO MUCH for the daily inspiration. You truly have a gift and I love that you share it with us!
Merci,
Shannan
Love that jacket and the fact that it is so versatile! xo
love this- very edgy!
Great tribute- I am especially in love with the addition of the pussybow blouse and the lace stockings underneath those slouchy jeans...genius!

much love.
I'm so glad you rediscovered those shoes! I absolutely love them but missed them when they came out. I've been looking for a pair of heels that I can add to to create something similar.

Sexy and chic!! Love your rocker-denim stance with the uber-fem blouse and Chanel-esque jacket! You always think of every detail!!

I love it! Love those shoes...isn't it amazing when you find something you haven't seen in a while. It's like getting something new!

You look great - esp considering you NEVER wear jeans that often!

I love the look. The shoes definitely complete it as well!
Those prada shoes are amazing and that blouse is everything I need right now!
We're wearing similar blouses today in each others posts! I love how you styled yours to give it more a rocker edge! Be sure to check mine out if you get a chance. :) Have a wonderful weekend! xo

the jacket is so fly.
Yes, I do! I especially love your mens jeans...I need to get on that look!
I think you nailed the look. I have a similar blouse, so I'm going to give this look a try. And don't you just love it when you re-discover clothing items?!
I'm wearing a blouse on my site today that I think you'd love: leopard print, tie-neck, flowy... that's all I'm going to say.

The jeans give off such a sexy masculine appeal that we usually don't get from you as your looks are generally very feminine. Such a great look, maybe my favorite of all now. Major kudos.
The first photo is so cool and chic. Great inspiration! Your jacket is amazing!
ok... i always drool over everything you wear... EVERYTHING but this look is genius... dare i say even better than Vogue Spain? the huge cuff and the little lacy socks... perfection!
~selina
definately a great tribute, although i like your interpretation better!

Love love love!! Frankly, I think you pulled the look together better. And those shoes are just insane. I want!

i don't love the rolled jeans because they distract from those great shoes!
Might I say you pulled it off better than Vanessa!
YOUR SHIRT IS KILLING ME.
so gorgeous.

i'm digging the fanciness of the top paired with the casual-ness off the jeans...
http://adorablydeliciouslp.blogspot.com/
Very well done! You make it look effortless.

I love the giant turn ups! really cool.
Jewelry saids it all.. i love it!
honestly, i prefer your look than what vanessa paradis wore for vogue spain.
yours is way better, not intentionally to compare you both. but you are amazing!
love it!

Do an item with different pair of jeans. I'm sure you have got more than one!!!!!
DEFINITELY a fitting tribute. I like the worn-out feel of the jeans. I'm so jealous of that long-strapped green bag in the magazine.
I think I like your outfit better.
Love this outfit..especially the blouse!!!! An excellent tribute
