this weekend consisted of Provencal markets, buying a vintage fur hat that i'm obsessed with (pictures coming soon), New Moon, mulled wine- my new obsession, Christmas festivities in Aix, a French carnival, listening to Ke$ha, and taking a day trip the "Venice of France". it has also been abnormally warm here, so i have been spending as much time outside as possible. today i visited the village Isle sur la Sorgue, which was a tiny French town that is surrounded by the Sorgue river and the streets were filled with market vendors. i only have three and a half weeks left here in France...time went by so fast- i can't believe its nearly over.

i took these photos the other day after walking home from class and then i had some more fun with photoshop. the tights started out with a small run and then just continued to grow. i actually really like how they turned out. recently, i have been obsessed with Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals- here's a link to one of my favorites. hope you all have a great week!

i decided to mix this post up a little bit. the pictures were pretty small, so i played around with photobucket made a "mini collage". i bought this hat during my break and i absolutely love it...the color is neutral so it goes with pretty much everything and it's perfect for a bad hair day.

i found this little wood paneled hallway outside my room and thought it would be a fun place to take some photos. i was going for a more casual look today, but i thought the red lips added just a touch of glam. my brother was going to get rid of this shirt away a couple months ago, but i decided to take it- i thought it would be interesting to experiment with. its officially fall weather here...the crisp air, the brightly colored leaves are falling to the ground and i've been able to layer knit sweaters, chunky scarves, tights and even wear mittens.

i think Paris is one of my favorite cities of all time. the architecture, the history, the fashion...it is all so inspiring. while we were there, we did all the touristy things, like visit the Eiffel tour, the Sacre Coeur, the Louvre, etc. But, we also went to a Virgins concert, ate Mexican food (i'm dying without it!), and ate at this restaurant called Coffee Parisien where i think i had the best omelet and hash browns of my life. we were only there for a few short days, but needless to say i think i could spend lifetimes there.

so, i made back all in one piece...beside the fact that we almost missed our flight this morning due to train problems and to run to our gate! i had an amazing time, but after traveling and living out of a suitcase for 10 days straight, it is definitely nice to be back in Aix. i took a copious amount of pictures that i will try to post over the next few days.
the first city we visited was Bordeaux. i absolutely loved it; it reminded me of a smaller version of Paris. we didn't end up visiting a vineyard...but we did get a free wine tasting at this little tapas restaurant on our first night. there was also a carnival going on, so of course we had to ride the ferris wheel. the back drop of the glittering lights from the rides and the old statues and architecture of the city was unreal.
