A post-Happy Valentine’s Day from me to you! My boyfriend gave me this fantastic KENZO dress on Saturday, isn’t she dramatic? I will get you a photo in color soon but for now imagine strong yellow with hints of black and white, which I paired with pointy PRADA pumps and an envelope clutch from GIVENCHY. Probably the nicest gift ever. Still touched. Hope you had a fantastic heart-weekend too!

Let the weekend begin! I’m in the office prepping to this track and then off to Paris for Valentine’s Day. What about you? Cheesy romantic or fun with the friends?

In the homage of the 70’s, FRAME DENIM presented their Fall 2015 collection earlier today in New York. A collection that not only consisted of jeans this time but a full wardrobe. It echoes minimalism with its clean lines, 70’s shapes and cuts, natural color palette and accessories. Besides the collection the model herself actually kind of remind me of Vanessa Paradise, which brings me to Paris and the peak era of Jane Birkin. Vibes I don’t mind at all, but who would? Regarding bringing back the flared denim, I haven’t been back since 1997 when I use to wear my GUL & BLÅ jean day and night, I welcome them with open arms. Love the high waist too. My only concern, however, is that I have to wait an entire semester to have what Grede and Torstensson referred to as “chic essentials”…

GIANVITO ROSSI’s strappy sandals in camel are the perfect complement to the season’s 70’s mood. I like them with everything from cropped jeans to midi skirts. So let the spring come!

I’m having a bit of shoe slash spring moment right now. Simply can’t wait to pop into my sandals and stroll the streets. Here’s few favorites from my shoe collection. Hope you enjoy it!

Speaking about coffee shops and perfect brewed coffee there’s always Frenchie-to-Go, also in the 2nd arrondissement. Actually, this is my first place I popped by when moving to Paris in the summer of 2013. Still going strong. Alright back to work! Hope you’re having a good Tuesday so far.

Happy Monday! Let’s celebrate this day with PORTER’S latest photoshoot with Natalia Vodianova photographed by Ryan McGinley. I literally have no words. It’s perfection.
The hunt for a perfect coffee is always on my mind, especially when in Paris since there’s so few of them. A recent new-opened coffee shop around the corner from me in the 2nd arrondissement is Matamata. Here you get perfect brewed coffee and a cute brunch like this.
A quick bonjour from a sunny Paris!

Somewhere in my mind I will always be playing with the idea that I lived during the 60’s and 70’s, which isn’t really the reality being a true 80’s kid. However, I love glorifying the eras of Woodstock and Dallas. Lucky me this seems to be exactly what this Spring/Summer 2015 is all about. Speaking color palettes, romantic over volumed blouses, mini-dresses, flared pants, luggage-colored leather goods and gold jewelry – I’m game. For my February List (you find my other LISTS here) my major inspiration comes not too unexpected from LOUIS VUITTON, SAINT LAURENT, ACNE STUDIOS, GUCCI and EMILIO PUCCI.
