breathless







Paris!

Rohan and I spent an amazing afternoon shopping when we first arrived and we managed to make it to Saint-Germain, Le Marais and Canal Saint-Martin. I kept seeing so many beautiful apartment blocks and ended up taking hundreds of photos (window boxes with red flowers are my favourite).
The first stop was the Dries Van Noten store right by the Seine. Dries is one of my favourite designers and the store certainly didn't disappoint, the interior was every bit as lovely as the clothes.
A few other favourites (more on this later) were Carven, Celine, A.P.C, Isabel Marant, Merci, COS and Saint James. 

The second photo is what I wore today (happy Easter everyone!), my Saint James Meriden top and Dress Up pants. I missed out on a pair of burgundy pants from Dress Up's AW11 collection and was so happy when I heard there would be a similar pair out this season. All I have been wearing for the past few weeks are stripey tops or button down shirts with jeans or tapered pants. I'm looking forward to the weather getting a bit cooler so I can dress for winter again.

One of my favourite outfits I wore while away was my Isabel Marant Azuli coat (found this on sale) with Acne jeans and pistol boots.
I miss Paris so much!
