October Essentiel




Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Hand Salve is my only essential product when October hits in with it's first frosty mornings. It's the only salve I've found that actually nurtures my skin without making them attrack all the dirt from the bottom of my bag when searching my phone. 
I enjoy it's simple packaging and straight to the point efficacity. I know France has some of the best pharmaceutical products in the world to offer but this one is really good. 
Their website is really good and full of information on their products : check it out here.

Textures


Autumn to me means textures, layers and scents.
Coton mixed with slow cachemire, the smell of cold leather, bergamot and jasmine. Hanging around in the parks, walking down the avenues and boulevards of a city on mute. Enjoying a cigarette and a glass of wine, alone on the terrass of a street-café, the crowd scared away by the cold.
It's definitely my favorite time of year.

On my feet




  On my feet, my old Birkenstock, so old they fit my feet perfectly. With the return of grunge and Phoebe Philo's high-end take on comfort, it's finally acceptable to wear them outside again ! I never stopped but feeling fashionable when going out in those is quite funny. A lot of people have been messing around with my Birk's for years but now they're loving it.  Some still have some problems with the combo Birken-Socks but hey, fall has hit Paris now and I don't want to stay home sick when my favorite season has finally decided to join the party. I love fall : falling leaves, gloomy shades of colors, hot beverages and a whole load of chocolate. And the best : afternoon walks in the parks ...
