Rive Gauche

Yves Saint Laurent


Vintage YSL Rive Gauche skirt


Over the weekend I spent a wonderful, sunny morning with a dear friend in her neighborhood of Jamaica Plain in Boston. We had a delicious breakfast at City Feed and Supply and then strolled down Center Street, popping into a few shops. The shopping stars must have been aligned, because at a small and jam-packed thrift store I came across a vintage Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche wrap skirt that I think will look fantastic over black tights. The pleating detail at the hips carefully follows the vertical pattern of the fabric and the closures at the waist just scream 'Made in France'! Well, they actually do say Made in France, but I was speaking more about the attention to detail.

A good breakfast visit, a good find, a good day.
