FOR THE SECOND YEAR in a row, Giambattista Valli did not stage an haute couture show, opting instead for an exhibition of his spring collection, open to the public. “Sometimes the fashion world is too exclusive and sometimes it’s nice to be inclusive,” the designer told Vogue. An open presentation was held at the National Gallery de Jeux Pom in Paris.

IN DECEMBER we wrote about the Fluffy White Coat Mini Trend, and now we're bringing you a parallel trend this winter season: the Teddy Bear Coat. Oversized and cosy, it's not only a favourite of fashionistas and influencers everywhere, but also of celebrities like Katie Holmes and models Elsa Hosk and Rosie Huntington Whiteley ...
IT'S OFFICIALLY WINTER and after the solstice, the days are happily beginning to get longer again. Of course, that doesn't mean there won't be dark mornings and chilly nights for the next few months, and after the holidays are over...
Mereces un amor que te
quiera despeinada, con todo
y las razones que te levantan
de prisa, con todo y los demonios
que no te dejan dormir.
WHILE WE MAY not be the biggest fans of Kanye and Kim Kardashian West, we are very much longtime fans of Axel Vervoordt. In fact, we once wrote a piece about how the Belgian designer and the musician met (How Kanye West met Axel Vervoordt, This Is Glamorous, April 26, 2018) ...
LAST YEAR KATIE Holmes created a stir when she stepped out in a matching cashmere bra and cardigan set by New York-based KHAITE. Since then, it has been sold out non-stop, but we recently found something similar that may work as well. Shop the actual pieces that Katie Holmes wore below, as well as a similar set we've just discovered...
DEEP, MOODY BLUES always seem to go well with winter days, especially after the holidays are over and things begin to settle back into normal routines again. The winter blues can sometimes get you down, but not when they're used for perfect table setting inspiration ...
WINTER IS NOT OUR favourite time of year. Sure we love Christmas and in February we're into Valentine's Day, but we do not love the cold at all. And on this Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year, we're optimistically looking at ways to make the best of this season by keeping cosy in Down Puffer Trench Coats, V-neck jumpers and Merino wool pullovers, hoodies, faux shearling and wool blend trousers...
WE HAPPENED UPON a lilac-coloured faux leather halter top with matching trousers, and from that moment on, all we could think about were spring things and pretty, pretty pastels. And so, we've gathered up a few of our current favourites, from soft hotel bed linens to rose-coloured wine glasses and more ...
JUST A FEW THINGS in celebration of love (and spring for that matter) on our list in these weeks before Valentine's Day, the highlight of the chilly month that is February ...
IT'S THE FIRST WEEK of January, it's cold, blustery and the holidays are over. Some may find the first two months of the new year to feel rather long despite the days staying lighter a little longer each day. To help those who may find these months a little difficult, here are a few light and lovely things with pretty details that have been on our shopping list for a while now ...
As you know, we have been fans of Axel Vervoordt for a while now and featured a few of our favourite projects of his in April of 2018. Known for his incredibly calm, grand, sun-dappled, plant-filled and zen-like spaces in tones of whites and neutrals, this space, the home of Dallas-based antiques dealer Betty Gertz ...
ONE OF OUR VERY favourite things to do during the holidays is to spend an evening by the fire with a glass of cava, wrapping presents with Christmas music on and a mess of kraft paper, rolls of satin, velvet and grosgrain ribbon spread all over the living room floor.
