Amandine @amandine.lw, Collab Spring - Summer 2018

Where did you find the inspiration for the Marsou x Amandine Collab ? 

I love traveling with my children and give them that freedom feeling when you travel the world or run barefoot on the sand. I have always loved the elegant but ultra-comfortable style in Australian fashion, bohemian chic that can be found for example in the charming & hippie Byron Bay and which fits perfectly with our "holiday lifestyle".

What's your favorite creation in the collab ?

I have a big crush on the AGAR jumpsuit which has a very simple cut. It's practical for children while being very elegant. The mini gray check print is also very understated but so chic.

Marsou in ONE word ?

Timeless.

What kind of decoration did you choose for your children's bedroom ?

We kept very sober tones for the children's bedrooms (grey for my daughter and blue for my son) to be able to adjust them as desired and make them evolve with them and according to their desires. For the storage units, I chose practical and simple from Verbaudet.
So I put a lot of emphasis on linen and accessories to add life: Le Petit Lucas du Tertre and Little Cabari bed linen for my son and Bonet and Bonet for my daughter. I really like the delicacy of Inspiration By la Girafe prints on cushions or Boutis. I also had a lot of bespoke accessories made for O's bedroom to coordinate everything with talented designers like Joanna from Fikoumikou.

What are your 3 favorite spots in your neighborhood?

I take my daughter to the Petit Paris Playgroup musical awakening class on Monday mornings where we both meet our friends over a homemade breakfast and lots of singing and dancing. We love going for brunch at Carette's on weekends, everyone is adorable, even with the kids and it's really delicious. My son follows the Swimstar Super Rescue Classes at the Molitor pool, to learn how to keep his head out the water and return to the edge of the pool in case of accident.
