The historic luxury hotel, located at the foot of the Champs-Élysées, opened in 1909 in a building that dates back to 1758. The Crillon is one of two identical stone palaces on the Place de la Concorde and has been listed since 1900 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture. Today it is a grand space with 78 guest rooms and 46 suites, along with three restaurants, a bar, outdoor terrace, gym and health club.

Old-school hair accessories have really been making a comeback. Scrunchies, hairbands, clips, barrettes and slides have been seen on fashionistas and Instagrammers everywhere, but none so ubiquitous as the Gucci barrettes and hair slides. Made of crystal-embellished tortoiseshell resin emblazoned with the brand's name, it's encrusted with crystals and mini gold studs and perfectly dresses up an everyday look. The brand also makes an alternative barrette encrusted with the word "Amour" (shop here). Apart from Gucci, there are also other styles to choose from as well, including pearl clips and gold-plated hairpins...
“Past and Present I know well; each is a friend and sometimes an enemy to me. But it is the quiet, beckoning Future, an absolute stranger, with whom I have fallen madly in love.” —Richelle E. Goodrich
A waifish figure and large, brown, doe-like eyes; a tiny, cinched in waist and sweet, elfin features; a willowy dancer’s body, slight but strong from years of ballet training—always graceful and ever ladylike—it is difficult to believe that this beautiful woman, both inside and out, would wait almost her entire life to find true love but—when she did find it, it was truly great . . .

German style blogger Livia Auder's casual cool style caught our eye on Instagram (@livia_auer). There are camel coats, and leather and lace, plaids and animal prints and many hats (not an easy look to pull off). But most of all, the perfect recipe for looking chic in winter weather and pretty lacy tops and little white dresses to bring you back to spring again...
THERE IS SOMETHING utterly charming about John Derian's eclectic Manhattan apartment. It is one of those fascinating spaces where one could get lost for hours in another world—a world where French armchairs and Italian armoires co-exist, where a Swedish wall and Transylvanian linens intermingle comfortably side by side. There is a 19th-century canopy bed, open shelves filled with 18th-21st-century dishware, scatterings of area rugs and a well-worn chesterfield, oil paintings and other artwork, moody grey walls and plenty of wood, all bathed in a smokey, dusky light...
