Welcome!
Welcome to my little corner of curated chaos.
I’m Tess – a corporate girly by day and a rock & roll homemade chef by choice. When I’m not at a concert or planning my next trip, you’ll find me in my kitchen making dramatic bread, tending to 100+ houseplants, or styling outfits that mix edge with everyday wearability.
Allure by Tess began in the South of France as a luxury fashion blog, but like me, it’s evolved. Today, it’s a creative space where style, luxury, plants, homemade living, and travel collide… With a little rocker attitude sprinkled about.
🖤 Here you’ll find:
• Edgy, wearable outfit and style inspiration (corporate & everyday)
• Honest luxury insights from a former personal shopper and stylist
• Homemade, from scratch staples & recipes
• Botanical chaos, plant parent confessions & tips
• Travel reflections, metal concert reviews, and curated experiences
My goal? To inspire you to embrace your own version of soft chaos, where dark elegance meets cozy creativity.
Thank you for being here, and welcome to curated chaos.
Stay Chaotic,
Tess
