Suddenly she came upon a little three-legged table, all made of solid glass; there was nothing on it except a tiny golden key



From the Chloe Édition Anniversaire (their 60th anniversary) in London, Selfridges. A few photos of the store’s windowshop (too bad the concept store indoors did not allow photography).

This is my second perfume feature, but this one is really worth the post.  L’Eau d’Hiver is a powdery iris & heliotrope fragrance that lingers on the skin with a surprising tenacity for such a light scent. It’s supposed to be a winter perfume, but frankly I see it  it easily blending into the springtime weather or on a rainy day like this (mind you, it’s been raining like mad in the East Midlands)

It’s a creation by Jean-Claude Ellena, who has worked for the likes of Hermès, Van Cleef & Arpels, Bulgari and many others.

Available at Liberty and Les Senteurs, London.

 

 



I was so excited to receive my order today from moo.com, since I wasn’t expecting it until the 13th of this month.

I’m impressed with the quality of the paper and finish, and I love how you can opt for rounded corners since I wouldn’t have them any other way out of practical reasons. I’ve designed them in a really simple and straightforward way, with one side showcasing one of my  photos and the other with my contact details written in a neoclassic  typeface. Fashion editorial-worthy too.
