I’m With The Band

These teased updos, photographed backstage at Clements Ribeiro, are right up my low maintenance alley. Give one half of a thick headband a full twist, slip it on over an unfussy pile, add some color to the lips, and you are good to go!

Olympia Le-Tan

Inspired by vibrant and old book covers, Olympia Le-Tan launched her You Cant Judge A Book By Its Cover collection in September 2009. Her love of literature was a passion she shared with her father, French illustrator Pierre Le-Tan, and her talent for embroidery was inherited from her grandmother. Each clutch is handmade in France, lined with beautiful Liberty of London fabric, and limited to only 16 pieces per design. I would love to own any of these incredible book bags –  it would look so lovely sitting on my bookshelf when I am not carrying it!
