Iconic style moments you've never seen, volume III
Bonjour! Did someone say they needed a spot of French sass to brighten their Monday morning? Well, even though no one has asked, I'm delivering. Under the new "Iconic style moments you've never seen" umbrella, I give you "Roller Girl," a technicolor blast from the rarely seen (in the U.S. anyway) and much coveted 1967 made-for-French TV musical "Anna." This is one of the pesky videos that YouTube won't let me embed, but it's worth a click to watch. The sparkling chestnut comes courtesy of Serge Gainsbourg and features French siren Anna Karina in the title role. The highlight of the film is a sexy technicolor number with Karina prancing about. I'm quite certain this is the definition of effortless style and the best use of orange I've ever seen. Get ready to Ra-ra-ra-roller girl.
