EDELWEISS LOVES LA REDOUTE

Hello Stradi Girls & Boys !

We're here today with another contest in collaboration with Edelweiss Magazine and La Redoute. We had the opportunity to choose and style an outfit to celebrate Fall fashion. Here we have two completely opposite looks, both enjoyable in autumn, depending if it's a bright sunny day or a grey colder day. Summy is wearing a coat and dress by Soft Grey and slippers by La Redoute Edition. Autumn is wearing a maxi dress, a bag and a denim jacket by Soft Grey, and accessorized the bag with a Cyrillus scarf which is so delicate and pretty.

If you want to take a few seconds and click here to vote for us (you can even vote for both of us !) and you'll automatically qualify to try and win a 100 CHF gift voucher to spend at La Redoute :)

Hope you guys will be riots ♥

Easy as 1, 2, 3 !

 

Dear Stradi Girls and Boys !

Summer doesn't seem to go away, what a pleasure for us to enjoy this beautiful weather. Even if it's sunny, there's always a little wind that reminds you that Autumn has begun. I decided to please the sun with a colorful coat that I paired with other neutral color clothes.  The accessories are more on a romantic mood that you can totally adjust with some urban shoes.

This complete look comes from LA HALLE:

Coat - N by NafNaf

Shirt - Modavista

Jacket - 27 Quai de Seine

Leggings - La Halle

Shoes - K by Kookai

Accessories - La Halle

Bag - N by NafNaf

I definitely love shopping by La Halle, they offer a lot of trend with very affordable prices. Plus, they make amazing clothes for plus size, most of the time, the same clothes that you can find in regular size. CRAZY !

Topic : The bag is an extension of women's arm

Drawing : Learn Something Every Day

Boys don't understand why women need to have a bag... or two, maybe three...

They don't even notice that they keep asking us to put their things in our bag !

Women and their bag, yeah, it really sounds like Mary Poppins syndrom to me and we're more than happy to agree : the bigger the bag the more we can stuff into, everything ! Make-up case, tissues, purse, keyes, medecine, cell phone, iPad, workout outfit, magazines... And we can go and on... Because everything always seems essential to women. But sometimes, once in a while, when we find ourselves with a bag full of random useless stuff, we know it's time to declutter. Maybe just a tiny bit ? And how weird does it feel when we go outside without a bag ? We feel like, incomplete. Does a bag define a woman ? Or is it just some random accessory ? Because when you think about it, it's more than that, more than a fashion statement, it's the trust we put into a simple object, a bag, we bring it everywhere we go, we use it to safely stock our most practical gadgets and stuff. So we think it's great to cherish bags and collect them (because you know, us girls like to replace last-season stuff, right ?)

What are your thoughts about bags ? How do you feel without a bag ? How does your bag look and what's inside ?

Autumn Leaves

Every year, it's the same old thing : I wait and wait for summer and it goes by in a flash, giving me the feeling I didn't enjoy it to the fullest. Then comes fall, with all these pretty colors, grass covered with leaves. The day goes by quicker but very often we have the chance to enjoy the indian summer for a bit longer, so it's always nice !

When the days are getting a bit windy, I like to dress up and snuggle myself into a cosy jacket or sweater. This black and white knitted number is from K by Kookai (available at La Halle) worn with a casual dark grey skater dress from LH by La Halle. I love how the jacket can totally be thrown on to go get groceries and added to a girly dress to tone it down a notch. Look at this necklace, oh gosh, I guess it's a love/hate situation so don't hesitate to share your opinion ;) I, personaly, like it a lot as it totally dresses up a simple outfit. It comes from the accessory range at La Halle as well as the mustard envelope clutch which is, the most awesome bag I ever owned. It's simple but chic, funny and quirky, with lots of space and a nice touch to it... and it just gives lots of personality to a look ! Love, love, love it :) Oh and let me tell you about the shoes, because I just had a huge crush ! I love their lenght and suede material and also the ankle details with these little silver rings on the buckles. They're so comfortable I should just go and stock up on another pair ;-)

Stradivariusisters @ Edelweiss Style Lab 2014 - Outfit 2

Hi everyone ! Here we are with another look shot at the Edelweiss Style-Lab (and our Showroom Edelweiss review is coming soon) ! We had lots of fun as we said in our previous post, and chose to wear some cool, edgy pieces for our second look.

Autumn is wearing two mystical-enchanted-forest-piece-of-art scarves with so much detailing it's pretty insane. They are made by Julie Blaive from the HEAD and they're just one of a kind. On her wrist is a beautiful leather bracelet by Royal Blush, we really loved this chic collection. Summy is wearing a cool sweater by Laboratoire, bracelet and ring by Baies d'Erelle, and some earrings by Nathalie Briner from the HEAD. In the accessories department, Summy chose a cute little round bag by Julie Eglie. It made us thought of old camera bags with its timeless look.

We hope you were as blown away as we were by all those swiss designers, trying to emerge from the crowded fashion scene. We bet there's a space for everyone, everyone with ideas and quality in mind and we just can't wait to discover more.

Hey it's ok...

... to have a favorite mug that you have to have your tea in
... to think that pavements should have fast and slow lanes
... to panic when someone goes on your phone (even if there's absolutely nothing incriminating on it)
... to factor an hour of duty-free shopping into every pre-flight arrival time
... to be outraged if your partner goes a few episodes ahead on the box-set you were watching together

... to turn down plans so you can be tucked up in bed at 10pm

... to stop apologising for things that aren't your fault, they bumped into you

... if you still manage to trip over in flats

... if that quick drink turns into a 2am confessional with your bestie
... if you've never, ever voted on a reality TV show and don't plan to
... if you're still saving that super-expensive scented candle for best, you'll light it one day... maybe

City guide: Café Plumber in Deauville

Hello Stradi girls and boys !

Recently I've been on a trip with my boyfriend to Deauville. It was such a dream for me to visit this city. I can't but help, Deauville really makes me feel vibrant. The view, the water, that peaceful ambiance and those cute houses. It's a bit expensive - comparing to the rest of France - but it worth it.

At night, we went to a restaurant near by the beach, called Le Brummel. It was DE-LI-CI-OUS ! Prices really okay.

But I fell in love with a cute little coffee shop called CAFE PLUMBER - Rue Désiré Le Hoc 11 - where we stopped by for lunch. We had tea, bubble one for me and Kusmi tea for my man. The bubbles were stuffed of a mango syrup and you can chose the exact taste of your tea. We ate bagels and waffles.

You must go there even if you're not hungry, but just to sip a coffee in this cute place :)
