The black leather jacket

//WEARING// Zara jacket and trousers (old) Zara hells and jumper (F/W 2011) Philippe Audibert silver cuff Mono red bracelet (from Colette) Chanel purse/wallet

I have noticed that lately I have, unconsciously, started to be more drawn to more classic and tailored looks. I start work in less than three weeks and I really don't want to be going to work everyday in a boring suit or all in black. So hopefully, I will find some more colourful combination by then.

And now for the important stuff, the winner of the big giveaway, the lucky person who has won $200 to spend at Shopbop is ... (drum roll please) @Parmie Thank you all for your participation, but also a warm thank you for making the launch of The FashionCloud Weekly a huge success. Keep an eye out for the next one, as there will be more things to win, new DIYs and more promo codes to grab. If you haven't signed up yet, please feel free to do so HERE.

Le Marais/Paris

View this map in Google Map

When I am in Paris, Le Marais is by far one of my favourite shopping and eating destinations. I love getting lost in the small streets in this neigbourhood, there is always a new place to discover. It has great places to eat, snack the best falafel and/or hot dogs, great vintage shops, small fantastic jewelry shops... plus the best frozen yogourt place in Paris :) It is also a great place to have brunch on a Sunday afternoon (many choices, and all the shops are open). I thought that the best way to share my favourite spots in Le Marais would be do make you an interactive map of all my go-to places. Hope you enjoy and find it useful for your next trip to Paris.

I am currently getting increasingly worried about tomorrow, I was chosen amongst more than 13.000 candidates to participate in the world's biggest fashion show organised by the Galleries Lafayette. Don't ask me what I was thinking when I agreed to this - it sounded like fun at the time - because I am now thinking it was a very bad idea. I am the clumsy girl that will either missed a step and tumbled or walk on somebody else :/ Anyway I am sure it will be great fun and a good experience. So wish me luck and I will keep you updated throughout the day. Also, I have no idea what I am going to wear, as I really don't have that much to wear with me at the moment.
