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.…

Côté make-up & skin care
It’s been a long time since I have posted. For those who don’t know I’ve recently started videos more and more – let’s be honest here, it’s difficult but so interesting to explore! I love it while hating it at the same time – it’s like directing the mini vision you have in your head and turn it into reality – however editing take quite some time. Anyways, I am learning and I will keep on doing so as well as publishing this article. Beauty and skin care have taken a huge part into my daily life. I want to share here my (current) favorites. I put current in bracket cause…

Two fall obsessions
OMG! I have been super duper busy, and it’s not over at all! I mean it is great! I only had 4 days of post-New York depression. No! I’m kidding, but you know this feeling when you come back from holidays and get back to your routine and then you’re missing your holiday-life, now you see what I mean, right? So, since I just moved in with Forti and we got our dream apartment in the best neighborhood in Zürich, I’ve been busy with the blog slash videos, the move, university stuff (or mostly commuting time) and keep on being social (at least a bit ;) haha). As I love love…

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…

Does magic only happen during the night?
New York City might not be the City of Lights, but to me it is! Well, let me explain it to you. New York is an amazing and large metropolis famous for its energy and vibes that would bring you anywhere amongst many other things, but the big apple by night is definitely something else. It all starts by those burning evenings when the sun slides itself in between the big allées of skyscrapers, gets so hot onto your layers and bedazzles anyone who would dare to look at it. Usually called, sunset situations. The sky becomes truly orange and everybody opposite gets a bloody sanguine tan. It does not happen every…

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…

The chicest attire for a pool day
So, following my birthday chill day (article), I also wanted to do something special in order to mark the occasion. So, again with Laura and my friend Miranda, we booked a sunbed for three at the pool of the William Vale Hotel for the day. The hotel is located in Williamsburg almost in Greenpoint though..and the view is just superb – the whole Manhattan skyline! However, the pool is not as high as the Westlight, the rooftop bar at the top, but still, the place is a little heaven in Brooklyn. I’ve always wanted to chill one day by a pool on a rooftop in the middle of the city,…

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…
