That ‘je ne sais quoi’

MANILA, Philippines - Everyone loves Paris, and really, what’s not to love? Nestled amid the Eiffel Tower, little boutiques and charming street cafés is, of course, the Parisian woman: a graceful and mysterious creature synonymous with, well, that certain something. The enviable, covetable X-factor that no one can really pinpoint; a je ne sais quoi, as the French themselves would say. Elegance and charm, an understated sexiness and a sense of always being a little undone, she is très chic and completely irresistible. And while we all (obviously) can’t be French, now we can finally try. It’s been hush-hush for a while, but the arrival of Carven, one of our favorite French brands, has us absolument ravis, and we simply can’t keep it in any longer. In this editorial, we show you just how a la mode YStyle can be, and give you the first look at Carven’s latest collection.

Carven is opening next Wednesday at the East Wing of the Shangri-La Plaza.
