Romance, rich history, even richer food, and non stop fashion. And rain, so bring an unbrella. Parisian women are always flawless  and put together in that ” I just rolled out of bed, put  on some lipstick and whatever was handy, and look like I stepped out of a magazine” way. The parisienne’s  insouciant approach to beauty is admired by women the world over, but how to create the look seems a closely guarded secret. It encapsulates the  idea of cool French glamour we all aspire to.

This is the birthplace of Coco Chanel and Christian Dior. Both of whom reinvented the woman’s suit. Honor them both with impeccable style. Life is about diversity so I make like the locals. While in Paris  I then tend to wear more black and white, translated into  crisp white shirts with black skirts or a combination of white and black such as in the Bebe blouse which is more graphic. And you just can not leave Paris empty- handed, so set aside a corner of your suitcase for new clothes. Trust me, you’ll wish you had more space !
