As you might have already noticed luxury and bespoke works have always been a favorite of the Green Pebbles Girls, and we often go out of our way to showcase emerging and established designers and brands who we believe can offer a real difference and provide what in our minds is true luxury:
exquisite craftsmanship, innovation and exclusivity
As we were lucky enough to walk the streets of Paris enjoying the sights, the fashion and the general ambiance the city has to offer, (as well as rushing to press days - watch this space for great images) we realised what it is that makes Paris the Capital of Luxury and Fashion.

The city of Paris exudes luxury and ultimate decadence, from the buildings, to the furnishings, the fashion maisons, the streets and even their macarons.
Everything around us screams out style and elegance.
Luxury and Haute Couture find their home in Paris because they belong here like no where else in the world, and it is no surprise to us that even "aprés moi, le déluge" Il Maestro Valentino who set up his Head Office just around the corner from the Spanish steps in Rome, made Paris his home.

What we've always found incredible is the 'apparent ease' with which all this elegance and style is achieved, it nothing is forced.
A refined Renaissance author Castiglione would have described it as 'sprezzatura' in his 'guidebook' for Courtiers (Il Cortigiano). The ability to appear to do something complex with effortless ease, it is as if they are born with the knowledge, whilst in reality the achievement of perfection is reached through minute study down to the smallest detail, intense practice and devotion to the cause for 'the search of perfection' .
Centuries of this study, practice and tradition has resulted in what Paris is today, the centre of the luxury and fashion universe.

Nothing is rushed and everything has its raison d'être until the ultimate goal is reached, PERFECTION - proof, if one needed it, that Time is in fact Luxury.
