What I wore to the Palace of Versailles

Hello from gloomy Cape Town! Malick and I are back home and the bitter-sweet emotional hangover of our amazing holiday being over is a serious reality, but I’m going to share more images, videos and stories of all of that in my next few blog posts. Today though, I’m sharing my Versailles outfit :)

Visiting the Palace of Versailles has been a dream of mine for around a decade maybe? I was really into the history of the French Revolution when I was in high school so finally getting to see this palace was so special. And of course, it didn’t hurt that it’s the most beautiful place ever for taking pictures!

ABOUT THIS LOOK:

I wanted a look that felt French with an African finish, grand and yet totally wearable. The skirt was custom-made by my mom of course and the top is by local brand, Lunah. My super comfy loafers are by Carvela at Spitz. I love how all of these items can be worn in a million different ways and each bring their own statement feel to any outfit, and in this case, they were even better together.
