BY NOW YOU KNOW where we stand on leopard print here at TIG: it's a fashion classic that endures across the seasons, year after year and considered a neutral as far as we're concerned.

AFTER THE hair clips, barrettes and fasteners (see here) that were everywhere this past year, it was only a matter of time before hairbands made their way back into fashion
If you’re like us and thought anything puffy could only go with a chunky trainer, you’ll be as surprised as we were to see how well it can go with dangly earrings and a strappy sandal.
Next to trench coats and cosy knits, leopard print and silk, our favourite trend of Autumn 2019 is the return of checks and plaids. Always classic in our view, checks and plaids in tweeds and bouclé are the perfect way to layer on cool autumn days, whether in a blazer, trench or coat. Here are a few of our favourite ways to wear the trend along with a few shopping links...
EARLY OCTOBER and no one seems to be able to let go of whites just yet, pairing creamy silk slip skirts with cosy ecru turtlenecks or balloon sleeve maxi dresses with tall leather boots. Whether boiler suits or blazers, pleated dresses or cropped denim, autumn comes in shades of white...
Mornings are crisp and grey, often there is rain and lights on in the windows, and with my current sleep routine (early sleeping and early rising) I am often spending mornings sipping coffee and going through some books...
On the 1st of September I felt like someone pushed a button causing the weather to suddenly take a different turn: the mornings are brisk, the afternoons are hot, and by the time I leave work it’s chilly again. The mood on the streets of Paris is more beautiful than I have ever have seen before.
We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time. ―T. S. Eliot
IF YOU HAD THOUGHT that the athleisure trend wasn't going to last, you're probably beginning to realise, five years along, that not only is it here to stay, but it's only just beginning...
Season after season, there is always one trendy piece that Parisians are the most interested in investing in, and it is the shearling flight or aviator leather jacket.
Have been loving the weather lately: all the colour changing in the parks and watching the leaves turn during my strolls. The days are cooler already so we are in need of big cosy knits, warm coats and chic layering.
If you're as crazy for fall outfits as we are, you'll love that plaids and checks are back again, and this time, we're pairing the trend, in the form of a wool midi skirt, with a Georgia striped high-neck alpaca-blend sweater. Other items on our list include Byredo's Bibliothèque, newly available as an eau de parfum, an intoxicating scent of fruity peach and plum top notes, floral violet and peony accords, and an earthy base of patchouli, leather and vanilla that lingers on the skin and is perfect for autumn. There are also some beautiful new pieces of jewellery from The Shop―scroll down for our complete autumn shopping list...
Some might think that wicker is a summer thing, but the wicker items in The Shop have continued to be popular long after summer's end. If you're wondering how to take your wicker bag from summer to fall, a pair of blue jeans and a blazer are all it takes...
EVERY YEAR, when summer fades into fall, there is an ushering in of new trends, new patterns, fabrics and styles―knits and leopard print (which, are incidentally, "in" so often, they're considered a classic), smart suits and moody florals, athleisure (still) and denim.
