H&M STUDIO: THE RUFFLE DRESS
H&M just presented their new Spring & Summer 2017 Studio Collection yesterday in Paris. I had the chance to shoot some of the pre-released pieces from the collection in collaboration with H&M. I took advantage of the incredible atmosphere of the rooms at the wonderful Victoria-Jungfrau hotel in Interlaken. I love ruffle dress, top, and sweater, and I like to define those ruffle apparels as “Louis XIV Style”. So, no need to say that the dress matches perfectly the stunning room of the hotel. I especially love the combination of both romantic and sporty clothes that the collection #HMStudio does englobe this year. I think it is a perfect mixture of…

Gstaad la Classe!
Back to the incredible weekend in Gstaad with Parmigiani Fleurier. Naturally, I had to shoot some looks in between the events. But before talking about the look and share the pictures I wanted to talk about this bar. The Gstaad Palace Hotel is clearly one of the most beautiful I have ever been to. Very cosy I felt like in my chalet (OMG her chalet must be crazy) – No, I stop you right there. What I mean by that, is that Gstaad is a wealthy ski resort in Switzerland, and the hotel is sumptuous. Like a castle backed its hill overhanging the village. It seems like a very fancy place…

WHAT A PARMIGIANI FLIGHT IN HOT AIR BALLOON!
What a weekend in Gstaad and Château-d’Oex! Look at these colorful balloons flying smoothly in the sky. I had never been either to Château-d’Oex before or flown in hot air balloons. I was just bursting with excitement. It was the perfect day and weather conditions for an hour – way too short in my opinion, to fly over Swiss mountains. Hopefully, the snow had fallen a few days before in order to offer us an amazingly sunny and cold day – the kind of winter day that I LOVE; sunny, dry air and no wind. The international festival of hot air balloons happens once a year, and it was the first…

Attending the Famous SIHH 2K17
SIHH or Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie happens once a year (in January) in Geneva and is one of the most famous watches and jewelry fair next to BaselWolrd. If you are Swiss there is no need to precise how important is the watch industry in our country, but if you don’t really know about it, the SIHH is presenting the Richemont group that includes IWC, MontBlanc, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Parmigiani, Audemars Piguet, Cartier, Vacheron Constantin and many more stunning Maisons. It was such a privilege for me to be attending this year SIHH. I was very excited and quite stressed about it. The watch industry is unfortunately still a men’s…

May 2K17 be healthy
Again, on a detox cure? Yepyep, believe it or not, it is actually good. I did it to start this year on the right foot, I mean, after all, the feast I had during the holidays, I felt like my body will highly appreciate it. To sum up; three days, 21 cold pressed juices (vegetables and fruits) and me, including my very gourmand mind and my noisy belly. You do the math; yes, correct, 7 juices a day. Okay, I’m joking. The purpose was to clean my body, rest my stomach and liver, and detox from all ingurgitated toxins. A detox cure made by Fit’n’Tasty, a Swiss company. I only…

Yoga brings the best
Remember about the wannabe resolutions? Well, then guess what? Yoga is the best. You might feel raw, cold and inflexible (nobody cares), but this is what gets my mind free at its best. No kidding here. Yoga empties the mind and reinforces the body. I am not event talking about Bikram. Bikram yoga will kill you, even though you might think that you’ll manage it. For those who haven’t heard about it, it is practicing 26 postures – twice, in 40 degrees Celsius within 90 minutes… Lol right? It is the hardest sport I have ever done and I love it. It makes you feel hate yourself for making you…

Lovely Lunch at LaDurée
Not long ago I savored a delicious lunch at the new restaurant LaDurée in Geneva. As you know already from blogs, Instagram, and other newspapers, LaDurée just opened a tea-room and restaurant at the Four Season Hôtel des Bergues. The place is simply magical, it is like a fairy tale. The famous designer and architect, India Mahdavi, who also imagined the incredible pink restaurant and bar, Sketch in Mayfair, London, is the one to celebrate for the space. I am a big fan of her work, including the new Valentino showroom, and I couldn’t be happier to have such an amazing spot in Geneva. You can eat all day, taste…

DOUBLE DENIM
Remember Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears wearing denim on denim? I hated this combo for such a long time… ahahha but I recently re-discovered a double denim look, and trust me it can be very cute. Okay, the shooting is stating “welcome to Lucerne, what a beautiful city!” – sorry about the super tourist location, but the sun was out – for once, and the spot is pretty amazing though. If you will ever visit Lucerne, this is it. It is most definitely a postcard city, no kidding here, tiny, very very touristic and truly beautiful. I usually do not shoot in the middle of the sightseeing spots, but I…

Online and Offline on your wrist
Okay, a year ago I was thrilled by the new announcement of the TAG Heuer connected watch, after the Apple’s success story , I could not help myself wonder if I would one day have an electronic watch. I haven’t gotten a beautiful Swiss-made and traditional one, (yet – hopefully this will come with the years..haha) I did get some lovely ones and very practical but to be honest I am craving for the one watch to keep with me forever and never get tired of it. This one may cost a lot, so I’ll figure out about that one later on ;). For now, I am too curious…

Wear Confidence!
I have been blogging for a while and some people think that they can say if a look is or is not a fashion “faux pas”. I just find it stupid. Who exactly are you to say that? I believe that style is part of personality and it gets shaped with trends, experiences and years, just by living. I think you need to feel good in your clothes and that is all that matter. Who cares? We might in Switzerland, just go abroad to bigger cities and you will see that nobody is caring about what you are wearing. I don’t care to mix colors, styles or show a…
