I love everything about these stylish women. I’m tempted to add more sneakers to my growing collection, tempted to invest in another designer handbag. Wistful for a piece of leopard. If I had a mood board, these photos would be on it. Here’s to running around chic…..

What Have You Bought, Lately?
I’ve been adding pieces to my wardrobe, items I can wear with my leggings and boots. These are just a few of the additions to my closet.

The Straw Bag

It’s Still Cold Outside
I’m glad it’s still cold outside, it justifies my most recent purchase, a Faux Fur by Milano Furs. I first heard of this brand because of @Danividas. She posted an Insta-story where she was dressing, using this gorgeous fur gilet. I of course had to have one as well, but I ordered a black gilet,Continue reading “It’s Still Cold Outside”

Getting Organized
One of my goals is to get organized, to detox and to be organized. I want the life I had before the pandemic, where I had a sense of order. It didn’t feel like it at the time, but now in hindsight I was more organized. In order to help myself I purchased a dailyContinue reading “Getting Organized”

The Ritz Paris Madeleines
Since the closed borders have changed the world’s behavior with travel, Europe might seem more difficult to reach than before the pandemic, many people had to cancel their Parisian travels and regretfully not being able to try the French favorite cake, the Madeleine at The Ritz, so I obliged. The Ritz is famous for manyContinue reading “The Ritz Paris Madeleines”

Instead ofContinue reading “Indulgences”
It’s a Parisian Winter
