• WHEN A COUCHE BECOMES THE TRAVEL REFERENCE

    LAST WEEK I VISITED PARIS WITH MY DEAR FRIEND MARIE. PARIS WAS CROWDED OR AT LEAST THE HOTELS WERE ALL BOOKED OUT. INDEED, THE FAMOUS FRENCH TENNIS TOURNAMENT ROLAND GARROS WAS HAPPENING ON THE SAME WEEK/WEEKEND AND THERE WERE OTHER FAIRS TAKING PLACE AROUND AND IN PARIS. AS I LOVE DESIGN, I THOUGHT OF BOOKING US AN HOTEL WITH A SPECIAL LOBBY, AT LEAST TO ME. THE NEW HOTEL LE VOLTAIRE LOCATED IN LE 11EME ARRONDISSEMENTS, A LOVELY NEIGHBORHOOD NORTHWEST FROM LE MARAIS AND VERY CLOSED TO THE PLACE DE LA BASTILLE, HAS A BEAUTIFUL COUCH IN ITS LOBBY. ONE OF MY FAVORITE SWISS BRAND, DE SEDE, DESIGNS INCREDIBLE SOFA.…

  • Un voyage à Bordeaux Aux Sources de Caudalie

      It has been a while that I have not been to a spa as splendid as Les Sources de Caudalie. Located in the countryside of Bordeaux you will fell in love with this place. Let me draw you the picture; drive 15 minutes away south from the city center of Bordeaux, and you will enter a magical scenery full of vineyards and castles. The region of Bordeaux (Gironde) is famous for their red wine. Almost every wine estate possesses its own castle, or vice versa. It’s a beautiful region where nature and wine will make you daydream. I highly recommend you to visit some wine estate to try some…

  • Took off to NYC one year ago

    I have not really shared more of my voyage in New York, I guess I wanted to keep it for myself. My Instagram feed also changed a bit and I was mostly working or discovering the city, then the blog was not a priority anymore. 14.05.17 was a decisive date for me, that was the day I took off for my internship in New York. Or in other words my dream internship in my dream city. Indeed, I was going to work at one of my favorite label of all time The Row. In addition, to enter the very closed Fashion circle, I was going to spend some time in…

  • Two weeks left

      I cannot believe it, or maybe I don’t want to believe it! I have two weeks left in NYC…what a drama! I don’t feel like leaving at all. Work is great, the team is amazing, the city has still so many places to be explored, and of course my friends here. I know.. what a bitch! Nooo, don’t get me wrong here, I’m happy to go back to my family friends and love Forti, as well as to be back in the comfort of Switzerland and to finally move in Zueeeeri. I mean this is New York City and The Row that I’m talking about! Just my Dream City and…

  • Brooklyn without Coney wouldn’t be Brooklyn

    If you feel like New York is not really Merica, go to Coney Island and you’ll see. Coney Island is located in Brooklyn by the sea where the attractions of the amusement park offer the best view of the beach and the city skyline. Coney Island is the place where Brooklynite would go on weekends to enjoy some hot dogs and roller coasters. Speaking of roller coasters, the ‘Cyclone’ which first opened in 1927 is still working…and believe me I’ve been on it and I was more than surprised by this old one – honestly, I freaked out. The sounds while you are riding literally scare you. I have a…

  • Come on and Fly!

    Here a special look that I wanted to share with you; a black and white look with golden details. I love wearing refine jewelry (thanks mommy) and mostly yellow gold…I guess the color fits my tan better. Especially with black outfits, gold accessories will level up the look and makes it a bit fancier..not that we want to be fancy. Concerning my black leather boots, I’m totally in love with those! I mean seeeeriously look at those satin ribbons! Who would not fall for these? I also got some black ones, which would create a very cute all black everything looks I believe… Anyways my boots are from Fly London issued from…

  • SPICE UP YOUR LOOK

    Here is a black everything look (except for the bag) with really exciting and interesting pieces. Let’s start, from head to toes. I received this super lovely hat from A Lack of Color, for those who don’t about this brand, it is a quite famous Aussie label who creates beautiful hats. A mixture of light bohemian vibes and inspirations from the Seventies.. their hats are the Bomb! I picked this black one (I hope you know me by now) probably because of my dark hair and its fresh and Mediterranean design style. It’s called ‘Spencer Noir‘ in case you are wondering. The next very interesting item of this look is my…

  • NoMo with my BFF

        New York is the city that gives so many opportunities and the energy within which would empower anyone.. it’s also a city where you are surrounded by people all the time..but believe me, you can feel also quite lonely sometimes. I guess it’s a weird thing that might be applied or happening in big cities. As I turned 25 (yes I did!)  my best friend Laura came to visit and this was the best birthday gift. We had time to catch up and enjoy ourselves in the big apple. Honestly, I’m so happy that she came, we had a great time and lots of laughs! See you in Zürich baby!…

  • Le panier en Osier

    Le panier en osier is THE one cute bag that you need to get this summer. Whether if you are on holiday by the Mediterranean sea or in a big metropolis as I am, this is the perfect acolyte to any outfits – I swear! So, you know.. I love thrift stores, and there is this famous one in here called, Beacon’s Closet which I used to go back in 2011. And you know what..? It’s still the same – simply great! If you are looking for cheap and renown designers or any vintage treasury you should definitely go. My bag has no tag from where it is unless that is…

  • PROUD BABY: JOIN VILLA NOMAD!

    So, I have been waiting for telling more about this Villa Nomad thing, you probably got spoiled all over my IG account and so on, but I really want to share this on my blog. To keep it short, you know.. Forti launched his start-up to bring the real bar experience including tasty cocktails to your own party with the laid-back philosophy of mixology and the pleasure of savoring great drinks made with heart. With the years I have seen him working so hard and put so much effort to create his brand and those unforgettable experiences to his party-enthusiasts, which I have been amazed by since then. I’ve been…
