Julia Restoin-Roitfeld In ELLE Finland

Huge thanks to a kind reader in Helsinki who sent me the clipping seen here from the July issue of ELLE Finland featuring the beautiful Julia Restoin-Roitfeld. Although she did not have time for a full translation, she offered the following summary of the article. Also note that she wished to remain anonymous, otherwise I would refer to her as other than "she" at some point.

In short it's about her, what she does, her work and campaigns, favourite clothes (Emilio de la Morena dress with polka dot tights and Miu Miu heels). She tells how Richard Nicoll found her on Facebook and sent her "a beautiful dress." She likes to wear dresses because they flatter her figure and wears jeans very rarely. She also likes designs by Canadian Mark Fast. She says that people in the fashion circle think it's strange when someone wears the same outfit twice but she doesn't care about such rules, if she likes something, she will wear it more than once. That's about it. Oh yes, and your blog is mentioned in red in the bottom left corner.

"Laadukas faniblogi Roitfeldien perheestä löytyy osoitteesta iwanttobearoitfeld.com" which translates roughly from the Finnish as "High quality Roitfeldien family fan blog can be found at iwanttobearoitfeld.com." How cute is that! They called us a "faniblogi"! Thanks again to my favorite reader in Finland and to ELLE Finland, what an honor! I would not have know if she had not bothered to send it to me so I am doubly touched. Kiitos!
