For our fifth Holiday Gift Guide this year, we've picked out a few really lovely things for the children in your life, since we recently had a niece and a nephew born into our family. Among the very charming and whimsical things we've found is a wicker Strolley that converts from a pram to a shopping trolley...
A BEAUTIFUL VIGNETTE at home from the other morning, filled with a few of my favourite things—a limited edition grisaille fine art print by Annie Havlicek, impossibly romantic Baroque pearl earrings (perfect for holiday soirées) by Tomber Amoureaux, the Fitzgerald Travel Case and the Coquillage Notebook Cover by Belgrave Crescent and more...
WE HAVE BEEN BUSY with new designs at Belgrave Crescent over the past few months, include some new lightweight totes and small should/crossbody bags that we're really excited about...
“If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.” ―E.B. White
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.
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
"Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful." —Norman Vincent Peale
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...
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
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.
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...
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...
