I love Sonia Rykiel, and her diffusion line Sonia by Sonia Rykiel. She set up her first boutique on the Parisian left bank in 1968 and has been designing perfectly chic and french-inspired clothes ever since. I love how playful her clothes seem, yet not too childish either. When I was in Paris, I visited Printemps and drooled over her clothes and wished that I had enough money to buy something so that I could say I bought some Sonia Rykiel from Paris. I didn't, but I still get really excited when I see her new season stuff. One of the great things about her is that it doesn't seem out of reach - you can be inspired by her and appliqué your own old sweater, add a lot of bows to a stripy t-shirt, or some sequins to an old sweater, for your own slice of Parisian chic.
she makes some amazing stuff - simple, but cool and chic and very paris... love it.

definitely some staple items here, the black skirt and the cardigan with flower buttons are so cute!
ReplyDeleteI love these simple, but chic stripes
ReplyDeleteI like the skirt and 6 tops!!!
ReplyDeleteJudging by how many stripes there are from this little peek, I'm sure to love the entire collection.
ReplyDeleteI love the nautical theme, it's not too much and it's very chic.
ReplyDeleteyou have a fantastic blog!
ReplyDeleteI am so lucky to have found it.
I'm liking the whole sailor-themed collection. I've been dying to buy striped shirts but haven't seen the perfect shirt so far. =(
ReplyDeleteThanks for this post!

Her stuff is amazing and always instantly recognisable. She's also H&M's next collab which is out on the 20th.x
ReplyDeleteDefinately very parisian! :) I love stripes...
ReplyDeleteHer stuff are always lovely. i love the blue stripes top with the faux sailor collar. So cute!
ReplyDeleteMy love for stripes is coming back strong (it has been slightly eclipsed by my new found adoration of polka dots. All of these pieces are adorable...

I agree, one of my favourite designers!
ReplyDeleteMy gosh, I love these, especially all the stripes.
ReplyDeleteI get more enthused for her all the time! Especially after I went to the Paris store which I thought was SO much better than the New York store.
ReplyDeleteSonia Rykiel is great, her stripes are truly the best.
ReplyDeleteoh, i am so with you on this! i have one sonia piece, a peach & black striped sweater with a bow on the shoulder. i think i could easily buy one of everything if only i had the cash :)
ReplyDeleteI love stripes!!! And, I love your blog!! xo
ReplyDeleteHer range for H&M isn't bad - definitely some hints of classic Sonia and from what I've seen, not too badly priced. It comes out this month I think, so one to keep an eye out for! :)

ReplyDeleteI really love the sailboat sweater. I wish I could afford it, so lovely.

the little bows add a really sweet detail.
ReplyDeleteOh how I would love to get my hands on some Sonia Rykiel. I've been craving a cute striped cardigan for ages and that blue one with the bow detail would be so perfect, if only I could afford it!
