5 Days, 5 Looks, 1 Girl: Camille Rowe

DAY ONE “Stripes are very French—who doesn’t love a good stripe? Cross-body bags are my favorite, because if something isn’t across my body or in a pocket, I’ll put it down and forget it forever.”

DAY TWO “I’ve been living in L.A. for a little over a year. I don’t own a car, and because it’s so spread out there, I find myself carrying a larger bag, because I need all my things at all times. I don’t have that ‘my second house is my car’ thing.”

DAY THREE “My dad is the Frenchest man alive, but totally dresses like a cowboy and is obsessed with vintage. As a kid, I would wear his stuff a lot, and I still to this day kind of want to be my father—I steal all of his clothes and even his reading glasses.”

DAY FOUR “I love this bag because it’s like a cross between a purse and a jewelry box, and you can leave it out on a table or shelf as decoration.”

DAY FIVE “I’m half-French and grew up in Paris, and my style is pretty French in the sense that I have a bit of a uniform and it’s pretty classic.”

Emily Marant in À Paris 

There are many reasons as to why you should read À Paris. Not only does the book provide insight to Paris through the eyes of Jeanne Damas & Lauren Bastide, it is also a remarkable Ode to the city, celebrating the stories and lives of women in the city. It is admittedly not what most people would expect from reading it, with its goodwill and wholesome quality. Without spoiling anything, I will state how much it can change your perspective and expectations on the city of Paris. Not only will you feel like you get it, you will feel like you got keys how to experience Paris. Not to mention how Jeanne follow-up release, La Vie en Rouje does not disappoint either, we can be assured how much pleasure we take from being a part of this Histoire.
