May I introduce you to one of my biggest closet treasures? This beautiful beige Céline clutch is an original from the 70’s and luckily found its way into my closet:-). I own very few vintage pieces but the few ones are truly loved! If you should be in Paris anytime soon, try Kiliwatch! They have a great selection of stuff from past decades at affordable prices – even the French Voguettes shop there!
Happy Tuesday everyone!

I love the idea of spicing up last year’s simple dark coat with all kinds of military inspired embellishments.
But it also works on the new season’s key piece the Camel coat!
So, better start searching your favourite vintage stores or local flea markets for old brooches and medals to create your very unique military look for this fall.

One of the most versatile and simple pieces to wear right now is definitely a powder toned chemise en soie. To me, silk shirts are the surprise hit of the season yet totally season-less.
For the très Parisiènne look wear it all buttoned up with fine gold jewelry and a vintage belt (this one’s from Kiliwatch, Nati’s favourite vintage destination!).

A classic silk blouse will soften summer’s utility trend (perfect with khaki shorts!) and solve any pre-fall outfit dilemma while it leaves the floor to statement accessories and fine jewelry. The best brand? Equipment offers classic-cut silk blouses in creamy white or powdery beige at a reasonable price point.
Very ’summer in the city-ish’! The soft shade enhances a summer tan (working on mine right now!) and looks completely effortless when left unbuttoned.

Leave it to Carine & Co to push the limits of aesthetics…Among the recent overflow of too pretty, military inspired editorials, this is the first one I really like, cause it dares to be different and truely fierce.
Can’t wait to hold the actual new issue of Vogue Paris in my hands.

KASIA SMUTNIAK is the face of Armani’s new fragrance IDOLE d’ ARMANI. Just another blonde model from Eastern Europe who landed a fragrance campaign? Certainly more than that! In the current French VOGUE issue she shows us how to pull off a red Armani-leather blazer (used to be on top of my personal list of pieces that can never possibly look good on anyone!): Mix it with a simple Acne tee plus vintage jeans & jewelry et VOILÀ!
The biggest shopping event of the year Fashion’s Night Out is approaching and we can’t wait to get our hands on these fabulous tees, which were especially designed for this occasion…
