A day in Paris
Paris is always a good idea, isn’t? I think it still is my favourite European city (ever since I was little) and I think I would definitely want to move there at some point. Traveling through Europe by car makes you want to discover and travel through as many places as possible. So we spent […]
Market Saturdays | Hermes Wanderland

Last weekend I went to the Duke of York Square market […]

I realised I had seen a picture of her earlier in the year at the V&A’s fashion photography exhibition (wrote a post about it as well!). A strong, elegant […]
