* biography.
yvette rochefort grew up among vineyards in alsace, france. her family owns a successful chain of wineries in the country ( a business that was started by her great grandfather ), but while that’s where the older generation’s career took off, her parents’ names are well known around the world for other reasons. her mother, a retired ballet dancer, has her own lingerie line called pixie while her father used to be a model in the united states.
she was never a spoiled kid. her parents were rather strict when it came to raising their only child, making sure she was never the center of attention or on the news. not only did it humble her, but it had also made it easier for her to make genuine relationships with people in high school, especially those who weren’t as aware of her family status. her parents also encouraged her dreams to pursue writing, although, like a true cliche, they do hope she will end up taking over their winery one day, much to yvette’s dismay.
after permanently settling into tribeca, new york at the age of sixteen, a lot of things changed. yvette ended up diving head first into the fashion world, enthralled by its history and future. then came music. then interior design ... travelling ... you name it. as a strongly opinionated woman, she had felt the need to express her feelings about the latest fleeting trends, and that’s how her blog—YVESFORT— came to be. it only took a couple years and a plethora of connections with celebrities through her parents for the blog to take off and become rather well known ( or, at the very least, somewhat known ) in almost every industry, both applauded or with shaking heads at her for her remarks, quips, and brutal honesty.
while her parents’ money was the reason she got a head start, all of yvette’s success can only be credited as her own doing. even with her family doting on her at times, she was always independent, striving to put a distance between herself and the status of her family wherever success and brand was concerned. to expand her horizons and become part of different circles, she had ended up dabbling in a little bit of everything, even sports, although writing remains to be her biggest passion.
while nowadays she continues to write about pretty much everything, she’s mostly known as a celebrity / gossip blogger — think perez hilton, but definitely less problematic, less petty and more likeable ( well, that’s actually up for debate ). maybe even lauren conrad ! it’s not a title she’s fond of, but she knows what gets her the most views ; however, she’s been trying to write less of that and engage in more honest reviews and get back to things that boosted her blog in the first place.
* character.
character inspiration: cleo ( the queen’s gambit ), darlene ( mr. robot ), yennefer of vengerberg ( the witcher ), malena scordia ( malena ), carla roson ( elite ), margo roth spiegelman ( paper towns ).
aesthetics: bare feet in the mornings, worn-out pages of poetry books, lies dripping with honey, shiny lip gloss, old-fashioned in champagne flutes, fur coats with sneakers, spontaneous subway rides at three am, ashes of cigarettes under covers, pink hues over glazed eyes, wigs in neon colors, stolen kisses & hearts, endless games of push and pull.
personality: if i had to describe her with just one word, i’d say she’s free-spirited. she lives her life by her own rules, unapologetically, and it does end up hurting a lot of people in the process. she’s not a mean girl — she won’t form opinions based on status or wealth & she’s not rude for the sake of being edgy. on the contrary, she would much rather stay in the shadows and observe other people. she does like being the center of attention, but only temporarily ; she’s not after fame or popularity, she just wants to live in the moment and satisfy her urges and desires. yvette is very stubborn, but self-aware. however, that doesn’t mean she’ll actually own up to her mistakes ( often times, she will hold other people accountable for that, but not herself ). a hypocrite, really. she’s not great with commitment because she’s rather fickle and gets bored very quickly, but if someone or something manages to hold her attention for over a year, then she’ll be very dedicated to it. don’t even get her started on romantic relationships — those usually end before they even start or they end tragically because she’s the type to move on from one to another. very very very private ! that’s another important aspect of her. it’s pretty difficult to get an interview with her where she’ll talk about her private life & she almost never engages with other blogs and nosy people. sure, they can easily catch her in the act, but she won’t mention or explain it. for that reason, when pushed, she’ll manipulate and lie a lot — she will also do that for the sake of entertainment because ... why not. her brutal honesty only appears in her writings or anything that doesn’t concern her in the slightest.
* other.
♡ well-versed in literature, art, languages, philosophy. ♡ if something is interesting enough, chances are that she’ll explore it, whatever it is. she’s always looking for stimulating hobbies, activities, and people — but she drops them almost as quickly as she picks them up. ♡ the perfect partner in crime. there are very little things she wouldn’t do. she’s a big believer in that she will try anything at least once. ♡ she loves baking. her grandmother taught her how to work in the kitchen when she was a young girl and it’s something she’s never strayed away from. ♡ although she’s known for the gossip column in her blog, it’s not boring petty gossip — she doesn’t care to write about things like celebrities getting out of rehab & she certainly doesn’t actively keep up with anyone she’s not interested in. basically, she’ll only write about huge things or very controversial opinions. ♡ two words: eccentric extravaganza. ♡ loves to flirt with people and lead them on. it’s just fun ! ♡ she drives a black classic vintage convertible. ♡ her taste in music is very diverse, but she loves some 70s classics & she has a pretty impressive collection of vinyl records. ♡ in the process of writing a thriller / mystery book that she plans to release under a pseudonym. ♡ there’s a little greenhouse in the balcony of her loft because plants are the only living things she’s actually capable of taking care of.
