Like a boy

In honour of Tempest Worksmy friends' menswear store Leah et Alejandro in Amsterdam, which will close its doors for good at the end of the month, today I have the pleasure of sharing with you images of a unisex outfit that we put together this fall – and a little exclusive surprise!

You probably know this if you follow me regularly: I LOVE incorporating more masculine pieces into my outfits. I'm a big fan of loose fits, men's jackets and even boyish shoes – probably because I never feel better than when my femininity is balanced with a healthy dose of comfort and cool. This looks more like me than mini-skirts and heels, period!

Since opening Tempest Works two years ago, I have drawn a lot of inspiration from the departments carefully selected by my friends: the perfect casual cuts of Sunray, the British country chic spirit of Barbour, the utilitarian touch by Arpenteur or A. Vontage, the beautiful materials of Kestin or Merz b. Schwanen, the ultra timeless designs of Paraboot or Kleman… And their selection of small sizes always catches my eye!

This project that they carried out with so much passion and talent will have had a profound impact on my sense of style, and I am very grateful to them. The look we are sharing today, shot by Alejandro, is a beautiful testimony to this. I love these colors, these materials, the sublime Paraboot moccasins, the layering of several layers which are subtly revealed… and of course my darling Barbour cap, perfect in the rain thanks to its waxed cotton canvas. You've seen her so often on Instagram, she deserved her place here!

I also recommend many of these premium brands, for you or for the men in your life, because of their responsible production, their impeccable cuts and their quality.

This is good: the best way to support Alejandro and Leah to close this chapter in style is to take advantage of their great closing sales on the website Tempest Works. The discounts are really excellent, so don't hesitate to check it out. They slip me into the headset so that there are one or two left Barbour caps in stock at -20%…
