Have been working on my wardrobe for a while know, re-editing my closet and the pieces I am buying and it’s still a work in progress to create the ideal capsule wardrobe ...
LAST YEAR KATIE Holmes created a stir when she stepped out in a matching cashmere bra and cardigan set by New York-based KHAITE. Since then, it has been sold out non-stop, but we recently found something similar that may work as well. Shop the actual pieces that Katie Holmes wore below, as well as a similar set we've just discovered...
WHILE WE'RE NOT adversed to a tracksuit and blazer combo or trainers with everything, one Mini Trend we're really excited about is the return to MODERN ROMANCE. A return to pretty, more feminine pieces such as ruffled-collared blouses under soft mohair sweaters and very puffy sleeves on strapless dresses and cosy knit sweaters; bows on everything and the return of classic fabrics such as silk and satin and chiffon ...
With the sales starting today and with the fresh fashion resolutions that I just set out for this new year, it may seem difficult to choose not only what and how to buy. This year is the year where I will invest in more quality pieces, timeless wardrobe staples, and versatile, wear-anywhere style ...
IT'S THE FIRST WEEK of January, it's cold, blustery and the holidays are over. Some may find the first two months of the new year to feel rather long despite the days staying lighter a little longer each day. To help those who may find these months a little difficult, here are a few light and lovely things with pretty details that have been on our shopping list for a while now ...
IT'S OFFICIALLY WINTER and after the solstice, the days are happily beginning to get longer again. Of course, that doesn't mean there won't be dark mornings and chilly nights for the next few months, and after the holidays are over...
WINTER IS NOT OUR favourite time of year. Sure we love Christmas and in February we're into Valentine's Day, but we do not love the cold at all. And on this Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year, we're optimistically looking at ways to make the best of this season by keeping cosy in Down Puffer Trench Coats, V-neck jumpers and Merino wool pullovers, hoodies, faux shearling and wool blend trousers...
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.
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...
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.
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...
