As I write this, I’m busy prepping for Paris Fashion Week. It’s also the first day of autumn, and rain is forecast tomorrow and for the rest of the week. I hate the rain and have spent my in-between-work moments googling raincoats and boots that might keep me dry as I trek from presentation to show to event. Whilst in search mode, I couldn’t help but spot a few other items I’m adding to my autumn wish list.

Every season, I go through my wardrobe and assess what can stay and what can be sold, given away or recycled to make way for a few new pieces that hopefully won’t be leaving my armoire any time soon. Over the years, I’ve been investing in more pieces that I know will stand the test of time, which is how my fellow Parisiennes tend to shop. But due to my line of work, I like to refresh items or add another investment or statement piece when the weather changes.

So here’s my shopping list that will get you through the new season and have you looking a little more Parisienne (but far from clichéd)…
