I arrived in Paris yesterday, and the weather was divine! After dropping my bags at the hotel, I took a quick stroll over to the Jardin du Luxembourg to find half of Paris already there enjoying the sunshine and mild temperatures.
There’s a definite feel of fall in the air here, and some of the trees have already begun changing color for the season. I’ll be out the door shortly to go exploring and take lots more photos, and (of course) style notes.
J.Crew is having an excellent sale…
You can save 30% off full-price styles with code SHOPNOW, and that includes some of our favorites, and travel-friendly pieces!
I’ve been told this pleated slip skirt packs well for travel. It’s available in several neutral colors.
Cliché or not, while out and about yesterday I spotted a notable number of French women wearing some version of a marinière, usually white with navy stripes.
J.Crew Going Out Stretch Twill Blazer
If you’re looking for a simple blazer that can dress up or down, this one might fill that gap. It’s available in Regular, Petite, and Tall sizes, and currently 50% off! (Also in Charcoal and Black.)
Even in cooler months, I prefer lighter weight (and breathable!) pajamas, and am tempted by these. Also in black.
Well, it looks like it’s going to be another gorgeous day here, and Paris awaits, so I’ll keep it short and will be back soon with more travel and style updates.
À bientôt!
