"You know the greatest thing is passion, without it what have you got? I mean if you love someone you can love them as much as you can love them but if it isn't a passion, it isn't burning, it isn't on fire, you haven't lived." --Diana Vreeland
There aren’t many new places that I've discovered lately here in Paris, but there is one in particular place that I love and always go back to: Kodawari Ramen.
Every year I try to humbly honour Brancusi’s work with a few words. The 19th of every February is marked by his anniversary: the birth of Romanian-born sculptor, painter and photographer Constantin Brâncuși (February 19, 1876 – March 16, 1957).
Started a new year today reflecting on the year we leave behind and happy to realise some of the resolutions were happily accomplished, while other will still be on the list this year as well.
This is the first time in the 6 years since I moved to France that I am really happy about Christmas coming because I’ll actually have family over for a few days and I am not going to be alone again.
Even if the internet is full of gift ideas, there is still some place left for more inspiration. This shopping list is dedicated to those who have a beloved one who really cares about skin.
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.
I have been conducting personal research on some beauty products and was reminded of growing up believing that there was only a single brand for skincare, and that it worked for every type of skin and issue. This single brand, of course, was the classic Nivea.
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.
It’s been a while since I've tried something other than my favourite places, but this new place has already become much loved. The design is exquisite and the menu so delicious: the super chic and stylish Loulou was designed by Joseph Dirand, one of the most talented designers in Paris...
My everyday style has changed throughout the past three years, and one of the things I learned from my job is that minimal pieces are the most important buys.
What makes Paris so amazing lately is definitely its style. I have been observing Parisians for a while now and what I realize is that there is a fine line between between formal and décontracté, as they call it, and they blend it quite effortlessly when achieving this great style so typical theirs.
Summer holidays is the best skincare that could possibly exist―not only are our bodies are more relaxed and rested, but spending these summer days with bare skin without any makeup (at least in my case) gets me to my best complexion.
Like many of you have already noticed, almost everyone on Instagram is on holiday, laying in the sun and doing nothing. In case you are still at work, as well, here is something that made me dream for a while this week and took my mind off of work.
There is something exciting about interior design, redecorating the living room and having the perfect set up. I think it’s more important to purchase, from time to time, statement pieces―perfect pieces―than rather spending frequently on little pieces that eventually will be hidden somewhere because they don’t fit the aesthetics of your space. I’ve waited months and months for a rug that will fit my little studio and I don’t regret the investment.
