Shopping

You're eyeing your leather bomber jacket longingly but know that attempting to wear it when it's still "faux fall" weather will only lead to fashion misery.

Ease into the season with an autumn-leaning shade of sweet French espadrilles from new, local Atelier Aliénor. Designed by Parisian-turned-Houstonian Laurie Cazaux and handcrafted in the south of France, each pair is made using traditional techniques. Shop luxe options like the cognac leather lace-ups - also available in soft gray and khaki - or make it twice as nice with the two-toned lavender with a shimmery silver pop at the toe. For a subtle leap up a notch, slide on a duet of black leather with a delicate sparkling ankle strap. 

A fun oui to pass the time.
