Charles de Gaulle


Here I am! Finally in Paris! Day 1 in Paris was unbearably cold but unsurprisingly full of emotions. The highlights of my day included spotting the Eiffel tower when I was on the airport shuttle bus (with a string of 'OMG's necessarily attached to the moment), a stroll along the Champs d'Elysees, as well as hanging out around the Arc de Triomphe.

I had been up since 4am in order to catch the early flight, and since I hadn't slept much the night before, I was quite tired last night. Hence why I chose to stay in planning the extremely busy days ahead. Don't forget to check out my vlogs from Paris as part of #boffismvlogmas,  should be up later today!

This is the outfit I travelled with as well as the look I sported during the entire day before retiring back to my apartment just off the Champs d'Elysees (pretty great location, right?). I wanted to be comfortable yet still fun and fresh, so I went for a jumper - denim jacket - acid wash jeggings combination, all paired with my warm H&M scarf and my staple buckle shoes.

OUTFIT: Jacket: Thrifted - Jumper: Thrifted - Jeggings: Pull & Bear - Scarf: H&M - Shoes: H&M - Bag: Bershka

Weekend Round Up Post #2

This has been a very busy week! After spending all my work breaks, flight hours and in-between errands time preparing for a new project starting December 1st - Vlogmas, y'all! - I'm trying to make the most of this weekend by pampering and resting before heading back to Belgium tomorrow for my last week of work before the highly anticipated trip to Paris next week! Here are this week's posts in case you want catch up!

Pink Fashion Show at the Malta Aviation Museum



Local fashion events have increased exponentially over the past year. In between store openings, blogger previews and fashion shows, our calendars can barely take all the enthusiasm around these fashion happenings. It is, however, a particular pleasure to attend one of the most well-organised fashion shows I've ever had the pleasure to sit for. Last night's Pink Fashion Show, at the impressive Malta Aviation Museum in Ta' Qali, was one of those events I would have regretted not being part of.

In a venue that could easily give some of the most prestigious international settings a run for their money, one of Malta's leading fashion publications brought together some of the biggest names in the sartorial scene for a show that was as jaw-dropping as it was enjoyable. The 1940s vibe could be felt everywhere even as the guests pranced in with their Sunday suits, albeit it being Wednesday!

The outfits I had the occasion to see yesterday included garments from Marks and Spencer, Max & Co. as well as pieces from Blumarine. I was particulary drawn to a number of items from the latest Tommy Hilfiger collection too. Other brands included high-street giant Guess and recently opened store Coccinelle.

The show was also a great example of inspirational styling! I will definitely be trying out some of the combinations that the models so gracefully showcased on the catwalk. A big well done to everyone, here's hoping for another one in Spring!
