Summer
is reluctant to leave the South of France, and the days are still
beautiful and warm.. too warm for my autumn wardrobe additions though!
Instead of wearing them, I am playing in my wardrobe.. and planning
outfits for the cooler days to come.
Capsule pieces: wool skirt in mustard and black sweater
'Grand Apparat' enamel bracelet and 35 Birkin in black
Aix-en-Provence, Place des Prêcheurs
Capsule pieces: wool skirt in mustard and black sweater
Shoes: tri-color patent leather pumps
Accessories: Hermès 'Carré en Carré' 90 Carré (folded into the Brides de Gala section) 'Grand Apparat' enamel bracelet and 35 Birkin in black
Chère MAITAI votre bride de gala va divinement bien avec votre jupe moutarde qui s accorde avec vos souliers .Tout est divin;

MYRIAM
Merci pour le gentil compliment, chère Myriam. Il est toujours très satisfaisant si les anciens achats se marié bien avec les nouveaux! Un très beau week-end à vous, bises
DeleteSo elegant and perfect match as usual... Guess what I just saw some maxi-twillys that could suit perfectly well with your new wardrobe and especially with your nice little black Darel dress. But I'm sure you got an eye on these new beauties already ;-))
ReplyDeleteHave a nice evening my Dear MT
xx Catherine
Oh I have not seen any of the Maxi Twillys, other than in the catalogue! 'Maxi' seems to be almost an understatement, and how fun they come in oversized Twilly tubes. Wonder which ones you saw, and if any came home with you? Have a wonderful weekend xx
DeleteOf course, I could’nt resist… and brought two home with me. The first one is Brazil in Orange/Grey/ Pink and Cavalcadour in Bordeaux/Canard/Fuchsia. Both of them in Black are gorgeous too . I am sure that we are going to have fun with this new format (very very nice worn as a large belt or hanged around the neck, lighter than an scarf and sport chic bringing a touch of colours, perfect for this time of the year). During the week-end I’m planning to play with your scarf rings and anneau Infinity. I would love to have you around to have fun and I'm sure that you would do some spectacular and creative knots with these maxi-twillys !!! Have a wonderful weekend and week ahead.xx
DeleteMany thanks for reporting back, and congratulations on your new treasures! Would love to come by for a playtime, oh the fun we'd have... Enjoy a most wonderful Sunday xx
DeleteDear MaiTai,
ReplyDeleteLovely combo together with the carre, I bet you cant wait for the cooler weather to start wearing your new items.
Its a shame your new items are not available in the uk, but I do have a mustard top and black skirt so maybe a revers of you look?
Best Jane x
The Darel dress should become available in the UK, my dear Jane. A mustard top and black skirt is a lovely combination! All we need now are some crisp temperatures.. Happy autumn to you x
DeleteI've been in love with your shoes ever since you introduced them to us! The color combination of the clothes and accessories that go with it are ideal for the season and the yellow/gold make the sun shine :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a very HAPPY and sunny weekend! :-)
Already loved the shoes in spring, and yes, they could not be more perfect for autumn too! Agree with you on the yellow buckle, it’s such a happy and lovely detail. Have a great weekend!
DeleteHope it does not leave twice.
ReplyDeleteI was saying that I would like to be with you in the Café Riederer tasting this delicious tartelette, talking without end of all your "tresors" ... Of course, particularly the ones of Hermes and for sure of many
other subjects but please please in French...
My English is really too bad and when I read my former comments I am ashamed.
This mustard a d black colours are mine!
Amities
Monica
Oh wouldn’t it be fun to nous nous retrouver chez Riederer, et passer un super après-midi! La boutique Hermès n’est pas loin du café non plus... Your english is great though my dear Monica, and I think it is fantastic that you make the effort.. mille merci and bravo! <3 Amitiés
DeleteGorgeous!! One of my very favorite color palettes..love your Vivier shoes too....great looking. So rich, chic and elegant.
ReplyDeleteHappy you like the ensemble, many thanks! Agree with you on the RVs... you described them beautifully.
DeleteI like the skirt, some black tights would be nice to go with the ensemble!
ReplyDeleteYes, definitely black tights!
DeleteP.s. I have to go to Paris for RV because they have not in Gva !!! Isnt it stupid? We have all trades here.
ReplyDeleteI have tried on them in NY but a little bit too hard for my feet I love yours and all of them but I need very soft leather unfortunately
Amities
Monica
I have to get them in Paris too, my dear Monica! RV does not have many boutiques worldwide, although they seem to be busy expanding.. Re the leather, perhaps the Gommette or Chips style in suede would work? Bonne chance!
DeleteDear MaiTai,
ReplyDeleteLove these fall colors for the prettiest time of year. All your pieces are so fine, especially your RV's. May I ask you how they run in size? I have heard they run a bit large, so size down by half a size. What's your experience?
Beautiful as always!
Simone x
Hmm, the size depends a little on the style... I have three different models (25 Belle Vivier, 45 Belle Vivier and a 45 Marlène) and they all size differently. In the higher heels (45) I wear my regular size, whereas in the 25 BVs I’m half a size down. Hope this helps! Have a lovely weekend ahead x
DeleteSo lovely, MaiTai!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteAutumn is my favourite time of the year, and I can imagine that you're longing for crisp weather, as well. These golden hues are just glorious!
ReplyDeleteYour RV shoes have proven to be such a versatile addition to your wardrobe...I'm completely head over "heels" for them!
I am sooo thrilled that the indigo fur collar is back in stock, and I'll be placing my order next week!!
Enjoy your weekend!
Barbara A
Here’s to the joys’s of autumn, my dear Barbara! It’s my favorite season too. Already the light has softened, and the grapes are getting harvested.. so much fun. The RVs were a good purchase, I am thrilled how beautifully they work in all seasons. The indigo collars are flying off rapidly, will make sure to hold one back for you :-) Bon week-end!
DeleteI love every piece - so classic and chic and the color palette...perfection. Thrilled to find and follow your blog!
ReplyDeleteA very warm welcome to my blog, designchic! Happy you also like the new additons :-)
DeleteA soft spot for my soul, this colour combo of CenC!
ReplyDeleteHope Hermes will do something similar like with MetM - and issue at least the similar colour combo (if not the same!).
Enjoy the autumn approaching us...looking forward to modelling pics.
(You will "forgive" some of us who will be copying you, I hope; it is not avoidable. If only the natural charm could be copied...I would be the first in line :)
Hugs, Lea
Would love to have this gorgeous scarf in some other CWs too, my dear Lea! Very much hoping it comes out one day again (but hope they’d leave it the way it is ;-) It is lovely to know that the posts are inspirational, and I'd be thrilled to have a few outfit sisters around the world! Hugs to you
DeleteOf course, leaving it the way it is would be absolutely best.
DeleteYour posts are not inspirational only, they are the greatest possible source of learning for me (and, I am sure, for other "outfit sisters" around the world :).
I "exploit" some details and ideas in my "daily life", I do not publish it anywhere on web - OMG, I would be terribly ashamed to steal the idea and present it as mine.
All my friends know who my inspiration is :) And love your style too. Why name of the teacher would be hidden?
Waiting for CenC - this time I will order all cws, if possible, for security reasons (with exception of one, which I already have).
Lea
My dear Lea, I am so touched by your gracious and kind sentiments, many thanks <3 Hope the posts will continue to bring fun and inspiration. Hugs to you, my sweet outfit sister!
DeleteLovely color combination, dearest MaiTai! The 'Grand Apparat', and the black MT shawl ring are perfect little touches that further put it all together so beautifully. Brava, dear.
ReplyDeleteI'm with DS on the tartelette au citron and chocolat chaud. :-)
Warm orange hugs,
CS
Thank you my dearest CS! DS has this everytime we go to Aix, it's his absolute favorite. The chocolate is the richest I've ever seen.. you get an extra pitcher of hot milk to 'water it down' (not really necessary in DS's view though!). Have a most wonderful weekend xx
DeleteThanks MT, lovely inspiration. Have a wonderful weekend..s
ReplyDeleteMany thanks, dear S. Have a wonderful weekend too!
DeleteChère Mai Tai, votre photo finish m'a fait envie, je viens de me l'offrir en rouge/orange... je l'adore! Gros bisous
ReplyDeleteOui, le PF est formidable, felicitation sur le votre! Bises
