THERE ARE five days left of August, and if you're one of those people who do not wear white past the first week of September, then you don't have much time left. End things on a high note with this ultra-chic outfit of high-waisted wide-leg pleated trousers, a sleeveless turtle neck and cosy knit jumper wrapped casually around your shoulders for when the temperature drops. We included our favourite selection of trousers to shop, and while we were unable to find many sleeveless turtlenecks (although this might work), we did find a number of perfect alternatives...

EVEN THOUGH there is only one week of August left, we're not ready to leave summer behind yet, but do feel that some transitional pieces are in order for these cool August nights, and the first piece on our shopping list is the crisp blue shirt. Wear it with white trousers to keep the summery vibe going, or with blue jeans for a monochrome look.

THERE IS only one bank holiday weekend left this summer, in the last week of August, so there feels like an urgency to wear all of our favourite summer outfits before it's too late. While the Double Denim trend can transition into autumn, this trend, a white top with cream-coloured pants definitely belongs to the warmer months. Whether tucked or untucked, a t-shirt or a blouse, ankle-length pants or long pleated trousers, here are a few ways we like to style this mini trend...
AS FAR AS TRENDS go, double denim is definitely one of our favourites⏤it's casual and comfortable and yet also très chic. Also referred to as denim-on-denim or a Canadian Tuxedo (which we previously thought referred to Canadians' love of the fabric, but actually has something to do with Bing Crosby and a hotel in Vancouver in 1951) ...

From long skirts and light-knit sweaters to white pantsuits and black halter dresses, here are a few of our favourite looks...
SPANISH retailer Zara has unveiled the campaign for their new capsule collection, Into the Night, and it stars none other than the ultimate supermodel, Kate Moss.

AFTER WEEKS of dismal weather, it has finally become summery and we've been spending all our days in the sun. Since we've been wearing jackets and trench coats during this time, now it's time to change up our wardrobes once again and switch to cooler things. From fancy little white dresses with mary janes to oversize white shirts over bicycle shorts and kitten heels, here are a few images we've put together to inspire your summer style...

We have always wanted to add a tote to our line but wanted to ensure that we had a product that was as practical and durable as it was stylish. When Roséline and I began working on our design, we focused on the size and construction.
NOW THAT WE are out of our trainers and tracksuit bottoms and back into actual clothing again, we've switched to living in blue jeans and haven't looked back. In fact, it's such a good alternative, we're looking to add denim shirts and blazers and dresses and skirts to the mix. Denim days may be here again, but that's because they've never really left ...
HAVE YOU EVER come across an editorial that is so good that you wondered how you missed it? This editorial, entitled, Ultra-Marine, is one of those. Published in Vogue Paris (before the name change), it features Luna Bijl, a Dutch fashion model who was one of the late designer Karl Lagerfeld’s muses ...
THEY SAY all good things must come to an end, and that is now true of our bestselling Windsor Bamboo Top Handle Wicker Handbag. Introduced in 2018 while we were living in Spain, and it has been a runaway bestseller ever since. Like many of our other wicker and rattan items, the Windsor is completely handmade by artisans in sunny Spain, about an hour by train outside of the city, past acres of sweet-scented orange groves and a castle ruin nestled high in the side of a mountain ...
WHETHER IT WAS due to the arrival of athleisure about six years ago or the arrival of the pandemic three years ago, we've been dressing up less for a long time now. And even as lockdown restrictions have been lifted and we're hoping to make our way out of this chapter in our lives, some of the habits we've developed over this time have remained, such as the casual way we've been dressing during this time ...
IF FEBRUARY IS a transitional month to spring, then March is its realisation: the daffodils and warm breezes, cherry blossoms and forsythia let us know for certain that springtime is on its way. And while it may still be a little bit too cool to wear a trench coat just yet, we know that trench season is also on its way and we couldn't be happier to leave our giant puffy coats behind ...
