Lovers of Parisian style and fashion with a conscious mindset to our wardrobes. Occasionally we pretend this is a proper Salon of the non-beauty kind.

Elle this vintage insta shop I recently discovered may have some blazers worth looking at, they're a bit on the high side price wise but it's good curation.

Some great chairs on that Bo misses point completely!

The Kenzo dress is delicious. Wonderful colours.

banivani · 06/03/2019 09:11

Feel better soon Bo. Take care! I like that Kenzo too but don't understand the Marat. Possibly am too old.

Right, the challenge is non-black kaftan-y dresses with sleeves and for short people and not too dear, is that it?

ToElleWithIt · 06/03/2019 09:31

Love the Kenzo dress and I'm partial to the pink skirt too. The IM outfit is my least favourite of the 3 although still looks lovely on you

Will catch up with “Bo” post later.
Yesterday on my usual eBay wondering I saw this ... might be completely off and not “Flo” liking but here is my two cent to the “kafkany not black” challenge

eBay Joseph

eBay Cos

Redandblue11 · 06/03/2019 09:48

Meant to highlight Flo not “ “ Hmm

banivani · 06/03/2019 10:44

Found a black and expensive kaftan www.afound.com/sv-se/produkter/mm6-kaftan-dress-52918-woman_obz4e3mz

;)

it's possible Afound has finds actually but I have to work now.

Love the Cos aubergine dress above from Red but it does have short sleeves ...

Redandblue11 · 06/03/2019 11:44

Is the eBay Joseph link working? Can you see it?

banivani · 06/03/2019 12:57

Absolutely I just didn’t love that one as much ;) however I’m not shopping now Flo is ;)

Floisme · 06/03/2019 13:16

Thanks everyone. Goodness this is weird, I would never have put myself down as a kaftan woman. I don’t think I’ve owned one in my whole life, and yet here I am, thinking how interesting they look. I think it’s the shape and the relaxed vibe. And they have certain je ne give a fuck quality (at least they do for me) that I’m finding very appealing indeed at the moment.

Annoyingly I’ve got loads on at work today but will have a proper look later. Thanks.

bo hope you feel better soon.

If you like Joseph, and khaki-coffee colours, Flo keep going along on the Ebay link above and there's a superbly simple dress that might appeal to you. But sleeveless; I forgot you'd prefer sleeves. A bit MH utility style IMO.
