Daniela and I often talk about Mini Trends, the most recent being tracksuits with blazers, and she noticed at the same time I did that everyone seemed to be wearing big, fluffy white coats lately. Whether faux fur or shearling, they look so warm and cosy and perfect for a winter's day. Here is a round-up of a few of our favourite long white winter coats and ways to style them...

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...
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...
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...
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.
