31Million Part Deux

Please welcome Nicky Adle back to hear more about “The French Touch” and how 31 Million women manage and maintain effortless chic and the decadence of French cuisine – without twisting their ankles or gaining a gram.

In the first workshop, we learned the secrets of switching from flip-flops to heels and how to accentuate our assets with accessories and “standard items” in our wardrobe.

Today we will extend our foray into the “French Touch” by discovering The Secrets of French Nutrition. In this workshop you will learn:

-       French women’s approach to weight, satisfaction, pleasure, etc.

-       The tradeoffs they face and decisions they make, the mindset they use regarding food

-       Social norms on dieting and guilt, but also snacking, junk food as well as alcohol

-       The tricks they use on a regular basis

-       Typical meals and recipes for you and your family

-       And finally, the secret, the one and only rule you’ll need to apply, like 31 Million French women do

31 Million is a personal style consultancy that trains women on the ins and outs of French fashion whilst exposing them to the secrets of French style and nutrition. Our focus is to offer women in their 20’s to 50’s French style and nutrition lessons, organize for personal wardrobe consultations, arrange exclusive and fun Paris shopping trips, as well as provide a rental platform where women can gain access to French-styled clothing and accessories for any occasion.

31 Million started as a fun venture in Amsterdam, where Franco-Iranian Nicky Adle was missing the action of Paris shopping and decided to spread the word that French women don’t have more taste than others but simply dress and eat according to implicit rules that together constitute the French Touch. Raised in Paris, Nicky has been living in and out of France for the past 15 years, has never (ever!) shopped outside her hometown, or given up on her French eating habits. Like most Parisians, she knows the capital’s shops, current styles and future trends.

On weekdays Nicky is an INSEAD MBA graduate and internet entrepreneur, currently launching wondersale.nl, a promotions and discounts webshop that activates on key calendar dates such as Sinterklaas, Christmas, Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day.
