Garance!
Between being a student and my job, I don’t have any time whatsoever to work out. My calendar is so filled up that I can’t even squeeze one class in.
That, and Paris is the worst. The only gym that is anywhere near me is 12 metro stops away. And I’m not exaggerating.
How do you stay fit with such a crazy schedule?
xo Sophie.
I loved talking with Wes. He knows every single magazine, always tells me the best blogs to look at, the best people to meet, and we could talk for eight hours about an editorial or its mise en page.
We have the same passion for images.
(We have a person in common too, very dear to our hearts: his fiancée, Delphine, who’s also my friend and agent…)
His job is fascinating: he works at powerHouse, a New York publishing house and he oversees every book A to Z.
I wanted to ask him some questions to find out more about his job that he loves so much and his evolution in a world that is increasingly dominated by the internet…
What is your job title?
I’m an Associate Publisher at powerHouse books.
When it comes down to it, The Standard in Miami has a rather simple design.
Very 70s (which I love), its centered around the pool, the plant-life and the bay where motor-boats pass by in all their glory.
What’s so great actually, is that in like 30 seconds you feel right at home. That’s definitely what I love most about it. That and the spa (so great), the delicious restaurant and the potential yoga classes, none of which I attended, of course (except for that one I got burnt in a while back).
Enjoy the photos! Big hugs!

I met Laure during the exhausting fashion week circuit and I loved her energy right away. Plus, she’s French but lives in the States so in like ten seconds, we totally clicked!
Laure is the owner and buyer for an awesome store in Miami called The Webster (the kind of place that you just want to buy everything in the shop)(I ended up leaving with a skirt and a pair of shoes but there’s a whole day ahead for me to cave-in on so much other stuff!)(Help!).
Maryam opened her store a couple years ago, and since then it’s become a little bit of a cult.
Dianna was the first to tell me about it – and to take me there – but all the girls are talking about it. Why ?
For the atmosphere and the deco, for the shopping – Isabel Marant, Suno, Rochas and Jil Sander mixed with younger brands and treasures Maryam brings back from her travels… And of course for Maryam herself, but I’ll tell you more about her soon. Her blog is pretty cool if you’re interested in her aesthetic.
If you’re in New York for the holidays, what’s nice to do in the neighborhood is to go to Maryam’s, then go check Narnia, a really cool vintage store. Then you can make a stop at Schiller’s, a delicious yet a little bit over trendy restaurant (which is exactly what you want when you visit a city) that gets a little bit too crowded during the weekend (brunch nightmaaaare !), but is totally cool during the week !

Do you remember my friend Jessica Barensfeld ?
She lives in Brooklyn, works at home, has a looooot of green plants (I can’t personnaly keep one alive for more than two weeks), makes beautiful jewelry, has a cat (my dream), an Isabel Marant jumpsuit, wears clogs, surfs in Montauk in the summer with her boyfriend and in short, she kind of lives the Brooklyn dream life.
I love her appartment, all in volumes and light. Here are some pictures !!!

Have you ever had it happen where you’re about to walk into an interview with an audience and your boyfriend jeans lose a button? Not just any button, but THE MAIN button? And then without the button, the jeans don’t stay on your (slender) hips whatsoever?
And then you’re forced to discretely keep your jeans up by non-nonchalantly having your hands in your pockets at all times?
Even when you have to shake someone’s hand?
