For me, especially in autumn and winter it’s important to invest in high quality pieces. Maybe it’s because they have to stand all the rain and snow and really need to keep me warm and help me get over the terrible weather. This year I would love to wear a classic pea coat, preferably this … Read More
Metal tips
Seriously, how brilliant is this idea by Gianvito Rossi? Is it just me or do you also get stuck with your heels or scratch the tips every time you wear new shoes outside (especially when it’s suede)? The solution – as simple as it is ingenious – are metal tips and heels. I’d love … Read More
Autumn dressing – part 2
I have already shared some ideas for colder days but there’s something else that has been on my mind lately: the overknee boot. I own two pairs (both in suede) but now I am thinking about very tight leather and high heels. Paired with a classic look and a tailored men’s coat. I’d love to … Read More
Sale finds: Sandro and Proenza Schouler
Wanted: Isabel Marant Cleane Boots
As I said earlier, I am very sad I missed Isabel Marant’s Cleane boots when they were still in stores. You see, it’s not always love at first sight – sometimes it takes a while. 😉 Now they’re sold out, but I thought I have to give it a try. Maybe you know somebody who … Read More

Love: Vanities bracelets
Have you heard of the brand Vanities? Thomas Franc and Vincent Ribat founded it in 2009 and their bracelets, hand-carved bone skulls on fabric strips, made the brand rapidly popular in the fashion world. Colette sometimes has them in stock (currently there are some on sale). As you might know I love skull bracelets … Read More
Sale bargain
I love my turquoise Yves Saint Laurent “Arty ring” (it was still Yves Saint Laurent when I bought it – and it was sold out almost everywhere), my initial doubts wether it might merely be a temporary trend piece ended in smoke. It’s a modern classic! And, believe it or not, you can currently get … Read More
The world of diptyque
Maybe you can tell from my Instagrams that I’m a fan of the diptyque scented candles (but who isn’t? They’re so chic!), yet I only recently tried the diptyque perfumes and body care. There are three fragrances that I particularly like: “Philosykos”, “Ofrésia” and l’Ombre dans l’Eau. Sooo nice! Especially the first two. You have to go and … Read More
Back!
I am back from Thailand. More than three weeks of travelling were exciting, exhausting and relaxing at the same time. I will post some photos of my trip soon and share some recommendations for everybody who’s planning a visit. Above are some of the things I brought home: coconut oil (my new obsession for skin … Read More
