I wish you all a very merry Christmas !
Here’s the outfit I’m wearing today to celebrate this lovely family holiday.
Beware, another cuddly sweater. After the khaki mohair sweater, I fell for its navy version.
Still from COS, I thank them so much for making these oversized pieces, I’m a huge fan. I would want more, and more, and more.
A little Sunday afternoon outfit for a little walk along the Seine with my son.
By the way, I really like the layout they did by the Musée d’Orsay, I have fulminated against it at first because of the traffic but in the end it’s so much more pleasant to be able to access the Seine.
It’s time for my second Style Council with navabi !
navabi’s laid down a challenge for a few bloggers like Nicolette, Fluvia and myself : find a perfect holiday outfit using a simple little black dress.
I love this kind of exercise, all the more so with a piece that we all have at home.
Let’s start the week with an outfit that was inspired to me by a piece from Zara.
I saw this lovely sweater over a leatherette skirt, almost tone on tone. And because I had just received my Dorothy Perkins skirt which was exactly the same shade, so I figured I was going to try it. And I really like the result.
Mayday ! Mayday !
If you’re following the US blogs, you already know that the brand Missguided launched its PlusSize collection not long ago !
Well the brand is also landing on their French website with a brand new PlusSize collection you should like.
A nice and warm little outfit today !
I’m wearing a navy blue and green leopard woolen dress. I love this association.
Incidentally, I went all the way until the shoes with a blue pair.
A word about my Violeta by Mango coat, the Mango collection that offers sizing expansion until (french) size 52.
With this cold, I took refuge inside to shoot a few outfits.
Today, let me share with you a lovely dress by a designer I like very much, Manon Baptiste.
These pieces are available on the Navabi website, incidentally that is where I found them.
I particularly like this dress with its plumetis tulle yoke that uncovers the shoulders and the arms.
On that day, I was wearing my big Oliver Jung coat to keep me nice and warm.
A nice hat and ankle boots for a folk look.
A word about the hat, many of you have asked me if it was still available.
This version, which was made for the 100th anniversary of Filippo Cartazi, is not. But good news, Asos has recently re-stocked an identical piece. I’ve put the link down below the pictures as ususal (plus, it’s on sale at €30 and a bit, but shhh, you did not hear it from me)
Have a good day !

ps: Thanks to ShowroomM for welcoming me and letting me shoot a few pictures in their showroom in the center of the Marais. And thanks to Tode, my friend, agent and photographer.

I’m sustaining the momentum with BALSAMIK.
Many of you were pleasantly surprised, and know that the brand has paid close attention to your comments and observations.
Today, let me share with you a new outfit I put together using pieces by BALSAMIK.
I first fell for these super cute polka dot pants. I had the option to choose between 2 hip width, and I have to admit it’s very convenient.
I matched these cute pants with an absolutely perfect loose blouse with a shawl collar and a wrap-over cleavage. It’s so crazy perfect that I’m considering ordering more in several colors. However be careful, I had the good intuition to order it in (french) size 52 even if I’m a 50, this piece has a tendency to run slightly small.
I didn’t particularly want to add color to my outfit and wanted to stay on something sober and rather minimalist. And I realized I didn’t have a little black coat, simple but well cut.
And the coat I chose is exactly what I needed. In the end I didn’t have a piece like that in my closet because this kind of coat often gape at chest level or completely squash my breasts. With BALSAMIK, I solved this problem by choosing the depth of the breasts. Once again, bingo !
Obviously, BALSAMIK have more than one surprise up their sleeve and I appreciate greatly their tricks adapted to every morphology.
What about you, have you had the chance to try the brand since my first post about it ?
What do you think ?

After my little sheepskin coat last year, I was desperately looking for a black version this season.
And bam ! My heart went boom for this sheepskin-like coat. It’s exactly what I was looking for, warm, wide, comfortable, and frankly as chic as rock’n’roll. This little coat I found at Oliver Jung is just what I needed.
