Laëtitia is an Architect, an Instagram lover (with an aesthetic feed), and a follower of the “Effortless Cool” trend. Don’t miss her idea of versatility, minimalism, and timelessness!
Nice to Meet You, I am: I am Laëtitia, I have a master’s degree in Architecture and I have always been passionate about fashion and photography. I found on Instagram a way of expressing myself through my looks, travel and such, in a desire to inspire people and make them identify themselves with me in some way. It is also a kind of a professional escape, where I can do what I like, in a sharing relationship with other people.
Location: Porto, Portugal.
Trend: I do not follow any particular trend precisely because I use what I like and what makes me feel good. I’ve always been a fan of hats: I use and abuse them mostly during fall/winter. When I’m on a bad hair day, it’s the perfect accessory to hide the mess 😉 I love oversized parts, which bring some freshness to the look! The “Effortless Cool” is really what I identify with the most! The idea that nothing was thought but that the pieces all combine ideally with each other, all in a relaxed but classy outfit.

#Inspo: The minimalist style is one of my great inspirations because it allows you to build a good and versatile wardrobe. It makes it harder to have outdated sets because the lines are simple and clean. As far as color is concerned, beige is the new black for me, it combines with everything, and it’s perfect as a base for any look.
Styling Tip: Playing with the proportions, tight clothing with an oversized coat, or flowing clothing with a chic bag.
My Favorite Way to Wear it: A basic look with a trendy and oversized piece giving a complete touch to the outfit.
Trendspotting: Not wanting to make it personal, the Kardashians, for example, personify their style too much. In my opinion, they would gain class and elegance by choosing minimalist and neutral pieces without great exuberance contrasting with a glamorous outstanding purse or necklace.

Epic Fail while Shopping: Each person has his/her own style, body type, and we should not be guided by what’s good for others, because it may not be suitable for you. To know yourself and above all what suits you the best.
Your Favorite Fashion Book: “How to Be Parisian Wherever You Are,” because I identify a lot with the Parisian style. I admire the way the basics are valued and a good cut always cherish. Pieces like the blazer or a good pair of jeans are a constant in the wardrobe of a proper Parisian. Elegance and timelessness are the main characteristics.
Steal Style: Emmanuelle Alt, Jeanne Damas, Victoria Beckham.
Your Fashion Superpower: My best outfit is feeling good in my skin, from there on, the sky is the limit.
