Inspired By ... Jane Birkin in "La Piscine"

I'm loving this Topshop cream-colored crochet swing dress, as it totally reminds me of the crocheted cover-up that Jane Birkin's character Penelope wore in La Piscine. Penelope's white crochet dress, which she wears while sunning herself poolside in a villa in the South of France, is a perfect example of the innocent-sexy style that Jane has become iconic for.

I adore everything about 'La Piscine' and even made a movie trailer for it:

And Jane - well, I named one of my adorable cats after her ;)

Oh wow that's amazing! I wish I could do editing and stuff like that - yours is so professional looking!
Have you seen the remake of La Piscine? (creatively titled "Swimming Pool")
I haven't ... but I'm somewhat intrigued. Though I know it will be terribly oversensualized.

Aww, and a kitty Birkin sounds perfect! meoww
