Oh well, I have not done this in a while. If you don't know me well, I used to work in Fashion in Paris a decade ago and was very much into fashion. Yet my style was always very classic and demure. My permanent fashion gamble is always wearing timeless pieces that can last a lifetime and provide me with an intensive rewear. I know some people frown upon rewearing clothes but I do it every week. So my clothes need to stand the test of time and multiple washes. Here are a few looks I have used lately to the office and where I have purchased them.

A great dress from corporate day to evening wear

In all pictures, my bag is the Stella from Aspinal of London and yes! I use it everyday.

Doing this workwear summary was also very enlightening for me as I came to the conclusion I wear a bit of a uniform on the daily. It did feel repetitive describing what was I wearing picture to picture. Even if I rarely steer away from the blazer+blouse+tailored trousers look, I hope to incorporate a bit more colour from my usual palette and try to be a bit more risqué with my footwear. Watch this space for a few updates in my personal style!

This is it for today, hoping this newsletter inspired you to (re)think about your corporate style or... not at all but you still enjoyed looking at my grandma style!

Je t'embrasse fort,

Jess

Fashion | What I wore on our Spring Break holiday in Cape Town
The amount of feedback and clicks on my corporate wardrobe with 30 looks photographed through shameless elevator mirror selfies made me want to share more about my fashion choices with you. This time around, I am ditching the blazers and tailored trousers for sunnier dresses and shorter lengths.
