On Instagram, she shared a video of herself in the fabulous look discussing her new book. A translation of the caption reads, "Like every parent I wish I had more time with my girls. Some days I just have minutes to connect with them. I love reading books with them to have my quality time...". Her followers were quick to show their appreciation of both the book, and her outfit in the comment section.
Our woman&home Digital Fashion Writer Amelia Yeomans comments on this look, "Despite their versatility, white jeans can often be tricky to style when you're after a relaxed, everyday look - but Eva has nailed it. By introducing different textures with her pointelle top and a slight variation in shades of white, she manages to make a sleek, monochromatic ensemble wearable for any occasion.".
