For my fellow scarf lovers, Hermès just launched a website called jaimemoncarre.com (I love my scarf). It is a fun site which offers instructions on how to wear and knot your scarf. Picture Credit: Hermès Have fun browsing and getting inspired.

Summer Outfit (7): Blue Breeze
July 22, 2010 – 1:31 pm
Couple of days ago a friend mentioned one of my beloved old carres which holds a special place in my heart: Le Jeu des Petits Bonheurs. It is something special for me not only because I adore the design, as its name says: Play of Life’s Little Treasures, but also because it was my very [...]
Summer Outfit (6): Feminine with a Hint of Heavy Industry
July 20, 2010 – 11:13 am
Inspired by the beautiful Gaia Repossi, I think I really should wear some beloved pieces from my wardrobe more often. This artistic skirt from Marni is one of them. I’d like to create an office outfit this time. Pairing it with a navy silk top from COS, Hermès belt and patent degrade sandals by Gianni [...]
Summer Outfit (5): Orange in our Hearts
July 16, 2010 – 5:25 pm
I so wish I could change the title of this post to something like “dress for success”, but unfortunately after 2 attempts in 1974 and 1978, the Dutch failed to collect the World Cup for the third time… Again. Many of my friends know that I started watching the World Cup games in 1994 and [...]
Style Inspiration: Gaia Repossi
July 15, 2010 – 7:35 pm
I mentioned in one of my previous posts a young jewelery designer who impressed me with her understated French chic style. Today I happen to come across the same set of picture I’ve seen on the Madame magazine, so I think I have to share them with you. Gaia Repossi, another Italian beauty with an [...]
Summer Outfit (4): Lagoon & White
July 11, 2010 – 2:27 pm
I actually wanted to try something more ethnic with this gorgeous Carré but end up with a simple white shirt and jeans shorts. A throw on ensemble is more comfy and maybe better for a hot summer day!
Carré Story – Cent Plis des Miao

I’ve heard months ago that there will be quite a few China related designs in the Fall/Winter Carré collection, so I was very curious how they will look like: The Rhythm of China Sichuan Cent Plis des Miao Now after seeing and trying these new season Carrés in store, I made my choice. The Rhythm [...]
Le Chic Parisien
July 7, 2010 – 12:01 pm
We were too lazy to take pictures while we were in Paris due to the hot weather, but I did notice how beautifully the Parisian dress themselves in Summer. Like their love for good food, fine wine, individual clothes form a part of their personality too. Talk about fashion, what inspired me most during this [...]
Summer Outfit (3): Travel in June
June 28, 2010 – 12:49 pm
We’ll fly to Paris tomorrow, so it’s time to post another travel outfit. I love the freshness of blue stripes and the tribal glamour of zebra print, putting them together with a half DIYed necklace. The bead-embellished bib was taken from an H&M tank top (the fashion against AIDS collection). The top itself is in [...]
Pink
June 24, 2010 – 10:46 am
Peony is my favorite flower in late spring/early summer. I am not a big fan of pink, but peonies in pink are just beyond gorgeous. Whenever I take a look at them they always put a smile on my face.
