PEIL WINTER2020

STYLE

LA VIE EST BELLE!

T his issue’s style section has a very distinct inspiration: Parisian fashion. I’ll be completely honest and tell you it’s in part because I frivolously binged Emily in Paris in one afternoon, but also because it’s 100 per cent what’s happening right now. Paris’s “laissez faire” attitude is seen in a relaxed style of pretty ensembles. It’s precisely what we need in our lives right now. That combination of comfort and style is truly captured in each of this month’s fall looks. For those of you pining for a chic trip to Paris, I’ve brought a little Paris to you. We’re feeling extremely fortunate to be living so freely right now. It’s time to take advantage of that, and enjoy the little things. Wear the pretty dress. Add a new jacket to your repertoire. Try a fun accessory. Our local shops

are hitting it right on the mark this season. I often know my direction for the issue before I’ve chosen the looks. I’ve already got the style section partly written prior to venturing out to fill in the blanks. This season was the most seamless issue I’ve had to date. From the bishops sleeves to the flocked sheers fabrics, I quickly gathered everything I had on my list. Phew! In this issue’s interview about my role with the magazine I was reminded how my work as a stylist, as well as our readers’ feedback, propels each upcoming issue. It truly does. My hope this issue is that you’ll be inspired to create your own ode to French fashion, be it in the simplest of ways. Shop our local boutiques and I’m sure you’ll agree this is one of the loveliest seasons to be getting dressed in.
