Lunchtime buy: Equipment Brett Lava shirt

With the recent launch of her new book, Irreverent, we’re wishing that we could live a little bit of Carine Roitfield’s life.

The ex-editor of French Vogue has always been très cool in the style department, and her book documents the fashionable life that one might expect the editor of one of the biggest style publications to lead.

So, what better way to buy into the French Fashion Dream than to invest in a piece from Carine’s husband’s own label, Equipment? Christian Restoin founded the French label, which specializes in silk shirts, in 1976, and has been supplying style conscious Francophiles with beautiful shirts ever since.

This lava print shirt is an exciting take on the typical silk blouse. Its bold pattern will make you stand out from the crowd while its classic fit will undoubtedly provide you with that all important je ne sais quoi.

Yes, please!

Equipment Brett Lava Muliti shirt, £210, available at Oxygen Boutique.
