Style Friends in the Streets of Paris

You know what I like the most about chasing down people in the streets and take their picture of them?

Well, it’s an excuse for me to ask questions about them, sort of street speed dating. When I have a picture of a person and I know them a little bit, they will stay in some little nook of my brain and when I meet them again, mostly on Instagram, it can sometimes feel like we are old friends.

Meet some of my new people from the fashion streets of Paris during the fashion week in March 2024 where we did a street style reportage for Anna Magazine with fashion editor Liisa Kokko.

First person that caugth our style eyes served us breakfast in a café close to our living quarters in Marais. Meet Bashia Mbaye. Check him out on Instagram, style, art and activism. Separate post soon with a couple of Eat and Drink places in Paris. Stay tuned.

For extra impact bring your twin. Or friend. Outside the Stella McCarthny fashion show people were doubling up.

The Japanese DJ and model twins Amy and Aya are a common sight during Fashion Week all over the world and of course they are wearing Stella McCarthny vegan baseball jacket/coat. Ps Last time I saw them they had bright pink hair.

Hands free bag solution, great for walking in Paris. If you visit Lisbon make sure to visit Salted Books, an English bookstore founded and run by Brittish writer and journalist Alexandre Holder. A four week writing course in the bookshop coming up soon, for details visit this link.

Fashion friends forever. Buyer Sarah Lipton Lerer and creative director Caroline Huang Maquire , both from New York, getting a fresh dose of inspiration in Paris. Just love the Acne boots / John Rocha tulle skirt mix Caroline!

Yes, the Cowboy is always lurking in the shadows to jump back into trend. Might have to go and dig in my back room to look for the brown cowboy boots original American to see if they can be revived. The trend is all over… Netflix Yellowstone, Beyonce’s Texas Hold em and now strongly in fashion. Yippee-Ki-Yay!
