The girl with the straw basket is the new domestic goddess: one part homely and relatable, one part glamorous and aspirational
There is only one place to be seen on a weekend morning, and it is not at a yoga class or brunch – 2017 and 2016, respectively – but at the market.

You may be going to buy potatoes and an overpriced pain au chocolat at a farmers’ market in a primary school playground, but should look as if you’re in Provence, browsing brocante in L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, or handing over your euros for waxed paper parcels of pissaladière to take home for lunch in Lourmarin.
