Perfect V-day

This year, I had the most perfect V-day with the girls in Paris!

We checked out all the right places for the occasion (definitely worth a visit when in Paris!):

It all started with dinner Saturday evening at this trendy Italian place in le Marais: Cafe Baci. Sunday morning we then had the most girly champagne brunch at les Philosophes. They really have the best breakfast, celebrity spotting included! We rounded it all up with a little stroll through le Marais, where we came across this lovely Valentine’s pop-up store, which distributed Kusmi Sweet Love tea for free!

Thank you so much girls, for making this happen!!

Lots of love, xx

To all the hot couples out there…

On this Valentines’s day it seems the right time to pay homage to all of those hot and cute couples out there. They seem to be very en vogue lately, especially in Paris. Some of the most hip Parisian labels, Zadig & Voltaire and the Kooples have been using the theme for their ad campaigns several seasons in a row.

For the coming season, Mark Ronson and Josephine de la Baume are starring in the new Zadig & Voltaire ads. Last season the choice was for the couple du jour Sean Lennon and Charlotte Kemp, defenitely the hottest duo out there, as proven by the latest issue of Jalouse Magazine.

And voila, some of the super hip couples appearing in the new the Kooples ad series:

So, even as the most notorious single, you cannot help but love them, right?!

Happy V-day to all of you hot couples and hot singles out there!

Rag & Bone

Rag & Bone has all the right ingredients for the ultimate cool gal look: chunky knits, plaids, tweed, stack-heel hiking boots and lots of layering. Especially, during these days of big freeze, I wish I had every single piece of this collection to keep me warm and still incredibly stylish.

I just love all the small, well conceived details in the collection!

Alexa’s style diary

Alexa Chung is one of our favourite it-girls and always a source of inspiration when it comes to quirky and creative dressing. Now, thanks to Vogue UK, we have the possibility to follow Alexa’s style choices every day for a whole month. Unfortunatelly, the quality of the pics is not the best, yet they offer us a little glimpse into Alexa’s daily fashion choices. We wanna see more of that!

Valentine’s countdown

It’s one week until Valentine’s and here are some of the best picks for our all time favourite holiday:

1.+2.: If you wanna go truely luxe for Valentine’s don’t miss out on Miu Miu’s capsule collection for this special occasion. I love the little embalished patent-leather pochette and the plain tee with puffy heart-shaped sleeves.

3. (Diptyque) Red special edition candle. Its vanilla/ rooibos fragrance is just delicious, plus it helps a good cause!

4. Marc by Marc Jacobs Electro Pop cosmetic case. Seen at MyTheresa.

5. If you wanna go sweet on Valentine’s , there is no way around some Laduree macaroons. Get them in this most girly gift box by Yazbukey.

6. Carlota’s heart-shaped biscuits. Seen at Colette Paris.

Finally, if you’re looking for a more personal and creative gesture for Valentine’s day, get inspired by this super cute Garance Dore story!!

Last days of soldes

The last days of sales in Paris have arrived and usually around this time, there is nothing good left anymore…so I was totally excited when I came across this amazing the Kooples necklace yesterday for 50% off. I have been searching all winter for this kind of necklace…it’s the perfect piece to spice up a basic jeans/tee combi and adds the right amount of rock’n'roll to each look.

Well, I have to admit that apart from checking out their sales, I had a look at the new spring pieces. The collection is gonna be super hot, but more on this later. In the mean time, I suggest you check out the Kooples site, they have a really good music player, to which I have been rockin all moring.

I wish you a great weekend, xx

Love from Paris

First of all, I owe you a huge apology for my way too long blogging absence..it feels like forever and I missed you guys!!  But now I’m finally in Paris, settled a bit and I’m back for good! So stay tuned for lots of exciting Paris stories!
