La dernière minute

During the few days I have been in Paris, between the historical archives and the libraries, I have found the time to go to Musée Rodin. It's in Paris’s chic seventh arrondissement, hard by the beautiful Les Invalides with its gold topped dome and a short stroll from the Eifel Tower: both buildings are visible from the museum’s garden. And it is the three hectare garden that contributes so much to making the Musée Rodin such an enchanting place: the garden is beautiful in itself but made more so by the many Rodin sculptures placed there, including two of his most famous pieces: ‘The Thinker’ and the monumental six meter high doors ‘The Gates of Hell’. Inside the Hôtel Brion are galleries filled with: sculptures, paintings, drawings, prints, ceramics, and photographs. I really enjoyed the visit and the stroll in the garden despite the cold: thank to my Marant coat I wasn't freezing.

Bonjour Paris

That's nothing better way to start the new year that waking up in Paris with the sun shining in the sky and some macarons from Ladurée waiting for me in the kitchen. I'm going to stay here for just a couple of days since I have to study some documents for my thesis but I'll menage to enjoy my brief stay as much as I can.

The little black dress

The little black dress for me is not simply an item of clothing, is a concept. It's abstract, timeless, universal and one of my truly essential in my wardrobe. There isn't nothing more versatile, simple, classic and sexy than a little black dress. I usually prefer a pencil fit, with a short length, just on my knees. Mine is from Alexander Wang and I wore it yesterday night  with my Gianvito Rossi black suede heels: the perfect match.

The oversize coat

This Isabel Marant oversize coat is what I literally live in except when it's too cold outside. It's a mere simple, understated coat, with subtle and masculine details. My figure slithers naturally into it. Every time I put my coat on I feel like I am falling in love all over again, as though an infatuation is being relighted. This jacket imparts a perpetually effortless, off-the-cuff sophistication to my style. No words could possibly convey my fondness for it and it's just perfect with my Acne jeans and new Jimmy Choo suede boots.
