"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...
I have been obsessing (perhaps a bit too much lately) over perfect skin. I have drastically changed my lifestyle lately and I have seen only good results. Starting in September, I began a strict sleeping schedule.
If you've been thinking about adding art to your space and aren't sure where to begin, then this article is for you. To begin, while it may be tempting to follow trends, in the end, it's best to simply buy what you love.
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.
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.
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.
Every year Nadia Candet opens up the doors at Private Choice and invites everyone to feel « comme chez soi »
This is my third time visiting Private Choice, where Nadia Candet has once again asserted her curatorial taste and displayed everything in an Haussmannien apartment. This year the event is unfolding over two appartements.
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...
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.
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.
EVERY YEAR around this time, we round up the essence of summer in a moodboard we like to call The Last of the Summer Whites. It's a bittersweet time, for we know that nothing lasts forever, but even still, we wish that time would slow down just a little, so that summertime could stay just a little while longer...
THIS WEEK'S MINI TREND features the unlikely pairing of gold jewellery and swimwear. It may seem counterintuitive, but really, upon carefully inspection, is actually chic, chic... Here are a few favourite examples for your Style File.
