CUTE FIND: THE OVERCOAT

I’m into loose coats that are light enough for spring and summer winds. Nothing too fancy, to take away from the outfit itself, just a little cover up that I can tuck over my handbag handles if it gets too warms and something I can easily throw on when it gets too cold. And I think I’ve found it, at Zara!

The STUDIO OVERCOAT

139 Euros online.

Very Simple, clean cut minimalism.

And it has pockets!

Hmm, it’s 12:30 am and I can’t sleep so that’s a great excuse to do an outfit post, right?

These photos are from weeks ago (before Paris fashion week) , but I should put it up – will post more looks in the days to come.

Hopefully my outfit can inspire you to rock something that’s just been hanging in your closet.

H&M Dress + Celine Belt + Zara Coat

I’ve been meaning to post this outfit for the last 5 days now! But I’ve been so busy freelancing. So please bear with me, pretty please.

Last week was still cold and a bit wet here in Paris, but I’m starting to feel the sunshine ( even if it was for only 1 hour today :) ) I know, I’m the eternal optimist, I can’t help myself!

We went to see Black Swan and I loved Natalie’s acting – you could tell she must have really immersed herself in the role – so yes, I think she deserve an award, Mila Kunis was great and Vinent Cassel was sexy. But I saw it on an afternoon – when I really wanted to watch something “light” and so I left the theatre feeling like ” that was a bit melodramatic”. Terrible I know! Go see it for yourself and let me know what you think.

Last week started off great with a bit of vintage shopping with friends - I bought this Celine belt and a small Dior purse – in sort of like an 1950 themed warehouse, with antique furniture, vintage jewelry and clothes, musicians and even a proper barber giving men haircut reminiscent of John Travolta in Grease. It was so cool! I’ll be back in March and I’ll share some photos then.

I usually wear my hair loose and out, but this “chignon”  hair bun thing is starting to grow on me.

Cute Fashion Find: PARKA COAT

Altuzarra parka new york fashion week garance dore

During New York Fashion Week Altuzarra showed us how to wear a parka with a slinky dress here.

And Garance Dore goes on on and on about parkas. Could it be that everyone is finally seeing that Green Parkas keep you warm and can be stylised with anything from denim to evening wear?

Here’s our cute find of the day: JUICY COUTURE Sonic parka coat available at Selfridges.

Oh Lanvin I love you

Can’t get enough shoe porn, can we? Lanvin chain ankle strap heels are always a delight to see off the runway. Here they are paired with some red pants.

Note to self: wear your red pants! Ladies you know how it is you see something in the store, you really want it, then you wear it for the summer, the winter comes around and you pack it up. Well, I’m going to try to successfully bring these out for the cold, perhaps with some booties. hmmm…
