1. This week, sharing this chic crossbody bag, from Bottega Veneta.

I’ve liked this bag for what feels like ages. Ages! The strap was always too long for me however, even crossbody. It seems like they’ve reduced the length now, which would make it perfect – can anyone confirm? I love the small updates to the style and am a sucker for crossbodies still in general. There’s also a luscious steel gray version.

2. A nuanced, fascinating piece via The Washington Post: The Moral Calculations of a Billionaire.

3. I enjoyed this piece, via Who What Wear, on the mood boards of various stylists.

4. I really liked this video, via French Vogue, on what Jeanne Damas wears each day. Super stylish and quite accessible!

5. This week I read How To Be Parisian Wherever You Are, by Anne Berest, Audrey Diwan, Caroline de Maigret, and Sophie Mas.

This is another entry into the “how to be a chic Parisian” book category. It’s very charming, with some interesting insights and tips. It’s also a super quick read -I finished it in less than a day. I would say there is nothing earth shattering or life changing in it, but it’s a nice fun and easy read that gives you some thoughts for your own life. If you’re looking for a light stylish read, I recommend How To Be Parisian Wherever You Are.
