Little did I know about the versatility of a long puffer jacket but I can declare this is a true winter staple. I always thought it a cosy piece, but had a hard time styling it in a street-style context.
LIKE THE SWEATER VEST (or grandpa trend), the last Mini Trend we featured, the knit or sweater dress is perfect for autumn days. Whether with a crew neck or roll neck, worn belted or loose, it's simple and chic and cosy all at once. Here are a few of our favourites...
Walking around the glamorous and chic corners of Bon Marché, I came across two mannequins styled with knitted sweater vests, while salesperson was dressing, at the exact moment that I was passing by, another mannequin with a cream knitted vest over a striped shirt.
It’s funny how it happens every year at exactly the same time: the moment the autumnal equinox occurs, instantly the temperatures drop and the rain takes over the city. There's a slow pace in Paris now, the parks are empty and peaceful, the golden light is fleeting.
THIS WEEK’S Blogger Style features the utterly charming Instagram photos of Lovisa Barkman (@lovisabarkman). Based in Stockholm, Sweden, Barkman's life in pictures includes chunky knits on a sandy beach and a tiny puppy in a wicker handbag ...
You may have seen this list here or maybe somewhere else, maybe not in the same format, or maybe some pieces have changed, but one thing for sure: there are a few items in my wardrobe that are the most essential, pieces that I rotate all my outfits around, pieces that create endless variety for styling. Here is this season's new essentials shopping list...
TO SOME PEOPLE, orange and brown are the colours of autumn. And perhaps they are, in October or November.

September to me, is tall leather boots and cloudy Parisian skies, coffee and cosy knits and floods of morning light...
Timeless bags, such as Hermès Kelly bag, are an endless source of inspiration for styling. Classics such as this have no need for publicity, but there is a Mini Trend on Instagram lately of this beautiful bag ...

A LITTLE NINETIES, a little rock 'n roll―the padded shoulder t-shirt Mini Trend has been around for a little while now, but it's a perfect way to transition from late-summer into autumn. Worn with pleated trousers and heels or with blue jeans, it adds a little extra to any outfit...
The Dior Bobby is everywhere. The new Dior icon bag is called Bobby, after Monsieur Dior’s beloved canine companion, and the design is very classic and curated, with its clean lines and strict colour palette of black, cream, camel and blue Dior Oblique canvas.
This summer I have been mostly wearing earthy tones, linens and lighter shades, and effortless pieces―not following trends, but always choosing wearable pieces every season. As I've been spending hours going through the most popular and mentioned brands this season, I wanted to share with you a few pieces that I currently have on my mid-summer wishlist...
