I am often asked what kind of style I prefer when doing personal styling for men. And the truth is I don’t know. I could call it a mix of sporty and office, or what the French call habillé mais décontracté.
IT TOOK THREE separate home deliveries of puffy winter coats to finally find the right one and it was of course, the warmest one I could find, for it looks like it might be a very long cold winter. The final selection, was not, however, a quilted one, as the quilted one I really liked was forever out of stock ...
These past few days I walked into the November sunset, into a marvelous light that bewitches, for Paris has a certain energy, an energy that feels like being plugged in to electricity.

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. To me, September, with one foot still in summer, feels more like neutrals--cream and ecru and rust and sand. September to me, is tall leather boots and cloudy Parisian skies, coffee and cosy knits and floods of morning light...
There are myriad trends for this autumn: extravagant volume; ballooning sleeves; cardigans worn with everything; seventies-hued denim; trouser suits and pencil skirts; check tights; skirts, coats, and headscarves where checks were worn altogether such as at Burberry; wild fringes on coats, bags and dresses; and so on ...
THESE DAYS I feel softly and almost imperceptibly, the transition between summertime and autumn. One moment, it feels like summer is endless and the next moment, the Parisian sky is covered with dark grey clouds and a chilly wind. Most Parisians are already back from holidays ...
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...
