paris buys


I practically haven't taken off the Pierre Caron bracelet ever since buying it in Paris in September last year. It's very simple - no inscription on it, no nothing. Surprisingly enough, I have found simple, well-made jewellery at reasonable prices extremely hard to find, which is why I treasure the bracelet even more.

The plum-coloured ballerinas I also took back home from Paris. And now that Spring is finally here to stay, they are being worn for all their money's worth. Turns out plum lends itself to a lot of different colour combinations.

I like on the internet this week:
  1. A little spring poetry, presented by miss little lime.
  2. These pointed Tabitha Simmons loafer look-a-likes by H&M.
  3. 12hrs - a new kind of travel guide.

next time you're in paris

Delicate jewellery & perfectly manicured hands - what's not to love?!
Essie's All Tied Up has been a huge favorite of mine lately in the nail polish department.
In the jewellery department, I still wear this Oui ring a lot, as well as this watch by Seiko.
From Pierre Caron in Paris, I have a wonderful tiny pearl necklace & a very simple bracelet I practically never take off. Next time you're in Paris, definitely stop by there (52, rue des Archives) - it's the kind of place where you have to ring to be let in, but they are perfectly nice & helpful.

P.s. I discovered Pierre Caron thanks to Cecilia, who showed me the place when I met her in Paris last year.
