Highlights from the new issue of the Double. Walks in the woods, heavy reading and some stiff drinks. Sounds like winter to me.

Cold weather causes the need for the celebration of staying in..

This weekend my friend Clarisse from Ensuite organized a workshop with Ana Kras at the beautiful new restaurant project Clarisse is working on. It was such a nice way to spend a rainy Sunday, arts and crafts and eating cakes with tea. The beautiful colorful lamps designed by Ana will be part of the restaurant opening up soon here in Paris.

The other night I went to a BLESS event where they were asking Parisians to give their best plea for fashion. It was a night of competition for giving your best plea as to why you liked a certain piece of theirs that was on display. For the best pleas for each piece that person won the item! A pretty cool game with nothing to lose. I didn’t capture the evening early on, so many of the outfits and items on the walls were in use being plead for but you get the idea. If only other brands were as cool as BLESS and did events like this.

I love these images I found on the incredible Hui Hui blog of artwork by Benjamin Verdonck, and part of the spring collection preparation.

This was too funny and well styled not to love. This article from the New York Times Style Magazine features a couple great recipes from Kaori Endo of Rose Bakery and Nigel Slater.

This line of sunglasses by Janz & Cooper is unbelievable! Only 3 styles but in a variety of great colors and prints. There is not much on their site but what is there is perfection! I’m now torn between these and the Dries glasses (even if buying either of them is purely only in my imagination, my imagination is torn).
