FOUR PARIS PITSTOPS

Paris Guide

paris stops

Bob’s Juice Bar – best way to start the morning (the only place I know that actually opens @7.30 am here in Paris) or if you need a detox after the weekend.

Fondation Café – Australian/Swedish owners. Do I need to say more? Well the coffee can’t get much better than that. Fanastic little pit stop in Le Marais with stylistic Scandinavian interior.

Le Perchoir – As an X New Yorker you sure do miss the rooftops. This roof is smaller and more intimate than Nuba, which I really like. Also if you get hungry do get a table downstairs and order the “surprise menu”.

Frenchie – My local resto that actaully consists of four different hotspots. My favorite one is the small Bar À Vins resto. Food is delicious and the crew is great.

CANAL SAINT-MARTIN

image(1)Happy Monday to you all! Tired as always when kick-starting the week with a workout (why do I do this to myself?). Anyway feels much better now that I had my coffee and smoothie. Yesterday we were hanging out by the Canal and embrassing the +20C sun – can’t believe it’s only March! I was wearing a vintage tweed blazer, H&M cropped high rise denim, Ray-Ban folding sunnies, quilted handbag by Marc Jacobs and ballerinas by Kenzo.

SAMEDI SWEETS

Kate Moss

Paris spring is sweet as summerday at Capri! After strolling the streets of Saint-Germain-des-Près in the sun I did some shopping at my favorite bookshop L’Ecume des Pages. It’s just the best – if you haven’t been go! Afterwards I passed by Zara and accidently started trying summer shorts (?) looking like the ones Kate is wearing above… And to it there’s a matching blazer… Is it silly? I guess I would look like a preppy sailor… Alright foks it’s time for dinner with friends. Hope you’re having a lovely day too. Bon weekend! xx

ELIE SAAB AW14

PFW

Elie Saab AW14

Bonjour! One of my favorite show during PFW (after only been twice) is Elie Saab in the tents of Jardin des Tuileries. Going there is simply a wanderlust for the eyes. Speaking of the show the color alert was obvious: emerald, powder pink, burgundy and flower prints on black – something that entered the collection last season which I really like since it gives the collections a natural overlap from one season to another. Besides from the drop dead gorgeous gowns with their super high slits and sequin parade we could definitely hint a more cocky grown up woman in her power fur and dress pants. I wouldn’t mind the pink fur cape on the collage.

BEST OF PFW

PFW

PFW

A month of fashion weeks and parades of street styles I have to say the all in craziness got me. Maybe I’m a bit Swedish and minimalistic but I can help liking the more simple effortless outfits and preferably a more feminine touch to it. My two favorite looks from Paris Fashion Week are our Swedish beauty Alicia Vikander and Elisa Sednaoui from Chanel’s fashion show.  Preppy nonchalant meets pilgrim bohemian hipster. J’adore!

WEEKLY STYLE NOTES

Weekly Style Notes

Suddenly spring hits Paris and all you want to do is to undress. Off you go layers! How do I stay chic but still comfy in the wondering streets of Paris? Well I go for a city sandal – perfect to your jeans or skirt together with a fine knit sweater. I’m falling in love with Chloé’s super basic sandal and the more festive one from Sergio Rossi. This week I’ll give you both. Available @net-a-porter.com.
