How wiiide can you go?!!
I do appreciate an oversized take on a hot trend - it's funny how a look can start looking too comfortable or even a bit staid when we get used to seeing everyone in the same thing 🥱 but hey, that's human nature for you 🤷♀️
And then someone goes XXL on it & it's like yeaaaah!! Bring on the mid-week glamour 🪄 ↔️👖💙

Nothing says summer quite like a straw bag! 🌞
So I'm kicking off the week with some holiday capsule inspo - I love all these shapes but for sheer practicality the tote (with perhaps a clutch popped inside to hold those small but essential items & make the transition to evening?😎) would likely be my pick...💚🍋🧡

Ok so it's been too long between pastry posts, and after seeing these shots this pâtisserie is obviously a must try for this pistachio lover! 🎂
Will report back...🕵♀️

Thursday is traditionally vernissage – or exhibition opening – day in France, so you can quite often find yourself criss-crossing town during the evening, attending multiple events at different art galleries! 👩🏻🎨👨🏼🎨
The advantage of going on opening night is that the artist is usually there, the welcome is warm, and you can invariable admire their creative endeavours with a glass of something in hand…🥂🖼
So last week I set myself a style challenge – no jeans! To get into the creative/design icon mood I reached for one of my dad’s vintage ties (a floral Liberty print from, I am guessing, the 1960s), and was chuffed to be praised for my colour choices by one the artists – a mistress of colours herself! 🎨

Now who doesn’t love a good Liberty print?! 🌸🌼🪻🏵🌷
I'm lucky enough have two Liberty ties in my dad's collection - a gorgeous floral one in cotton from the 50s or 60s, not dissimilar to this one in spirit, and a silk version in an abstract pattern that I bought him on a trip to London in 1987!
I styled up the older one last week for an evening of gallery hopping across Paris - style-on-the-fly segment up soon! 👔
Meanwhile this lovely example was designed in 1933 & 🩷🩵💛🧡

Been obsessed with coloured gemstones all my life, they just feel so deliciously joyful to me 🩵🩷💜🤎
I've gifted myself a couple of modest pieces over the years (my 19th & 50th - hmm that's quite a big gap there actually! Ithink Ineed to spoil myself more) but my dream is to one day hit the big time with something from one of my coveted jewellers or
So in case anyone ever asks, you know where to send them! 💎😝💎🤩

Sunday shiny sandal inspo! 🪄🩴🤎
Not Greece this time, but St Tropez, where they also know a thing or two about summer style...⛱️

Hola!
Sometimes, you come across a thrifted gem that is perhaps not as pre-loved as others, because the tags are still on and it clearly hasn’t been worn – as was the case with the subject of today’s style tutorial – Spanish style! 🪭
One dress with personality by Amatrichi and 3 + 1 shoe options to take me across the seasons – make sure you stay to the end for the bonus one! 👗👢👟👠🩴
Which version is your favourite? I love them all, but now I’m leaning towards 3 for winter & 4 for summer…

Let's talk little black dresses & embroidery 🪡
Can a touch of decoration - be it embroidery, fringeing, tulle for example - restrict or actually expand your wearability options? 🕵️♀️
It's a question I explore in my upcoming style tutorial, so stay tuned for the results! 🖤
Meanwhile of course you can weigh in with your own opinion - or try & guess the answer!

Kalo mina & welcome June style adventurers!!
May the summer season bring more bounty, joy & sun-drenched special times than our outstretched arms can ever hope to manage 🌞🌞🌞
(Speaking of bounty, I'm keeping a close eye on these fig trees in my local jardin, where I have it on good authority that when the time comes, a spot of discrete harvesting is not frowned upon in the slightest 🪄🌿😉)
