Around lunchtime I spotted Sandra who was about to grab a sandwich with some friends. She's a desktop publisher (and aspiring webdesigner & photographer!) from Gouvieux. She moved to live in the Oise only 1 year ago and absolutely loves it! Her favorite place in the Oise is the forest of Gouvieux where she likes Read article…

Humanoid Arnhem
One of my favorite Dutch fashion brands is Humanoid. They have been around for over 30 years and their identity just feels familiar without screaming for attention. The fabrics they use are gorgeous, soft and easy to wear. It's a pity I cannot wear any wool (sooo itchy!), because in the winter they have the Read article…
Styloise: Guy
Impossible to miss this smiling man with the hat in the streets of Creil. Guy was coming home from his work as a swing manager at Mc Donalds in the Val d'Oise department. Even after more than 15 years at Mc Donalds, his favorite place to eat is still Mc Donalds (the one in Saint Read article…

LV & MJ at Les Arts Décoratifs
Only a few weeks after visiting the Jean Paul Goude exhibition, today I was back at Les Arts Décoratifs to see the Louis Vuitton x Marc Jacobs exhibition. Not that I'm very fond of either of them, but after the live broadcasted opening last night I was quite curious to see what all the buzz Read article…
Sunny Island
Sunshine really brings out the best in Londoners. I got to spend a few days in London last week and was lucky to meet lots of happy & polite people. The peak of enthusiasm was reached when I visited the Lush store on Regent Street. The sales girl and boy both (literally) jumped around to Read article…
Snow white without snow
With a particularly hot winter (sofar), we have to satisfy our cravings for snow somewhere else. What about a white Tyvek® bag by Maybe Bags? Super light, crumpled up in your suitcase of main bag, it carries everything and makes it a simple & beautiful everyday bag. Another great range of show white everyday products Read article…
