The butter yellow Jacquemus dress I can’t wait to wear, aviator sunglasses straight from the runway (I’m predicting to be the shape of the season) & the perfect black strappy heels.

vertigo silver-plated centrepiece christolfe
I’m always drawn to chrome or silver homewares and the Vertigo collection is both modern and timeless. Don’t wait for a special occasion to use this butter dish or water jug. The silver plated centrepiece is at the top of my Wishlist for our home.
murano glass pillar lamp stories of italy
This special piece was handmade to order and arrived last week. The glossy black and white Murano glass base with the white linen lampshade complements the warm, neutral tones of our Haussmann apartment so well. We usually like to source vintage lamps, but I knew immediately when I saw this one that it would be the perfect focal point for our living room, adding texture and interest. We love investing in and collecting art — and this lamp is no different. A truly original piece.
sl editions : juergen teller book saint laurent
Sammy and I got a takeaway coffee, sat in a nearby park, and then wandered to one of our favourite independent bookstores & galleries (which will be featured in my upcoming Paris guide) and came across this newly released coffee table book. Initiated by Anthony Vaccarello, it celebrates his long-standing work and personal relationship with photographer Juergen Teller and brings together all Saint Laurent campaigns and key editorials created together since 2019. Unforgettable.
sl 662 sunglasses saint laurent
I really shouldn’t go into Saint Laurent, it’s my weakness. I fell in love with these aviator frames for spring/summer and of course I couldn’t stop thinking of them. The Havana colourway were only available at one store in Paris, and they had to search out the back as they’d only just arrived. I’ve found them online here for you so you don’t need to run around Paris looking for them too. The black ones are also très chic.
heaven can wait fragrance frederic malle
Sammy has been wearing this all week and I haven’t stopped commenting on how good this fragrance is on him. It’s warm and sophisticated. Top notes: clove, ambrette, carrot seed. Middle notes: iris, vetiver. Base notes: vanilla, peach, musk. I’ll leave you with the description as I can’t describe it better:
“Inspired in part by the intimacy of private worlds, the result is a modern rendering of a Parisian classic: understated, discreet and noble–an eternal seduction, simultaneously exotic and comforting. It subtly draws one in irresistibly and invites embrace.”
la robe cubo jacquemus
Les Sculptures presented at La Foundation Maeght was my favourite collection to date from Jacquemus. I’ve been wearing so much black recently and looking forward to some colour again. I’m packing this one for my upcoming trip to Sydney this month. The cut of the dress is perfect — minimalist, a little 80s with strong shoulders, and feels very timeless.
wishbone 90 heel studio amelia
Studio Amelia always have such great designs and I have just ordered these. I was missing a pair of black strappy heels in my wardrobe, that felt effortless and modern underneath a pair of trousers or styled with a summer dress. The 9cm heel feels just right.
kalimero cha-cha bottega veneta
The Cha-Cha has stolen my heart. I really don’t need any more bags. Or do I. I don’t. I do. I don’t. But it’s classic Bottega with their signature intrecciato leather. I love a good top handle bag, but the over the shoulder style is oh so practical. The Jodie has been overdone, but the Cha-Cha…
georgette body saint laurent
Ok, this one is just in my cart waiting for the sun to come out in Paris. Or maybe I just need to fly to Greece. You can’t go wrong with a slightly sheer, backless black bodysuit.
zona earrings silver louis abel
These arrived last week and I can’t wait to wear them. I love silver and gold jewellery equally, but have been wearing more gold recently. For some reason, these remind me of the controversial 2003 Gucci ad shot by Mario Testino published in Vogue’s February edition — but in a fun way. I’ll leave you to google it.
signature poplin button up shirt & pant woera
I wore this exact set on repeat all last summer and can’t wait to wear it again. It’s a signature style from Woera and I love the oversized sleeves. Wear over the top of a one-piece and head down to the hotel breakfast before going for a swim and spending the day relaxing in the sun. The pink set is also on my mind.
