What to wear for a night out in Paris?
I am going to say, lace.
Carla captured this evocative Parisian night in the Place Vendôme.
The street lights, the two looking out from the balcony at the Christmas decorations and Boucheron, one of the most beautiful jewellery houses in the world.
How glamorous and romantic Paris looks?
It’s Cyber Monday, I promised shopping edits and my inspiration came from Carla’s photograph.
There is one thought in my mind today after thinking of Paris and that is lace.
I will be in Paris next week and lace is definitely going in the suitcase beside the leather and the cashmere.
Lace is one of my most favourite “extras” in the wardrobe. I love it dressed up and I wear it dressed down.
Lace is feminine, elegant and ageless. Lace looks wonderful worn with jeans, with sneakers or with heels and an elegant coat.
I have been adding lace pieces to my wardrobe for twenty years and I don’t plan on stopping anytime soon.
Paris and lace… a very pretty pair. Don’t you think? xv
