A Sunday lunch at the Royal Savoy
It was a lovely Sunday at the restaurant of the Royal Savoy Hotel, in Lausanne. A bunch of bloggers and journalists united for sharing a delicious meal altogether. I had the chance to seat with my beloved friend blogger Sofia Clara, and two gentlemen, both journalists. It was an interesting table with many subjects of discussions and of course, some incredible assiettes. We first went for four different entrees. We had some eggs with mushrooms, some quinoa salad including goat cheese and raspberries, knuckle terrine and seasonal asparagus with prosciutto. Each first meal were good and we shared every bite of those tasty plates. The concept is simple, served on Sundays,…

An Evening with Piaget
Remember the contest with Piaget? You probably have been harassed in order to vote on Facebook, right? I am not really into those Facebook contest. I don’t like when people keep asking me to like or vote something and guess how I felt when I had to ask my people to do so… I know and I am sorry if you have received more than one message from me. Anyway, I had the chance to be a Piaget Ambassadress and to attend a lovely evening – women only. It was great to finally meet other ambassadresses aka talented women with something to say. I feel that being in a community…

Did you say Bischou?
Do you know how much I love thrift shopping? This is a fact about me that you need to know. I love searching for old or vintage pieces. I never go to a thrift shop any expectation. I always go to second-hand stores with a free spirit in order to be open minded to any pieces of furniture or clothing. My favorite one around Lausanne is called Emmaus. I mostly find coats in winter, accessories and a lot of dishes. I love crystal and dinner services. I found this lovely oversized cream blazer. It’s from a Zebra store in France, I have no idea, but I love it. I…

City Bike, City Style
Here I go with a little springish outfit. I am not sure if it is appropriate to the Swiss weather, but I like it. First of all, you have to know, that I am usually never too dressed when it is sunny. I like wearing shorts or skirts in the summertime. As I am living in the city of Lucerne I wanted to have a bike. Not any bike, but a city one. I am not into mountain bikes anymore, not that I was once upon a time, but younger, I did use one. CommonI was young and kinda wanted to be like my older brothers, so I guess mountain…

My secret skin care
How should I start? Yes, I have read correctly, the name of my cream is called, skin caviar luxe cream from La Prairie. Okay, this must be (once again), a marketing strategy. It is obvious, I know it because I love marketing. Furthermore, I do not like eating caviar, I do not like its taste and texture, and no sir I am not posh. I tried and dislike this fancy comestible product, and the name does not make provoke any glamorous thing. So, when I have heard for the first time that a luxurious brand uses some caviar in their skin cream I could not believe it. I thought first, they use it as…

Seafood to die for
Not long ago, I was delightfully invited to a beautiful and famous Zürcher Hotel. Did you guess where? Yes, exactly, it was at The Dolder Grand, which overhangs the city of Zürich. This hotel is reaaaal. No kidding, I had heard so many incredible things about its architecture, interior design, service or the view. I swear everything is true. The view is simply breathtaking, you are over Zürich and its lake, surrounding by a green vegetation and the mountains at the horizons. I was invited to savor some Italian seafood. You already know…, I love good food, and when it comes to fresh and Italian one, I just cannot resist. Who…

À La Fourchette: Basel
You know how much I love pretty and authentic coffee shops and bars. This is an important thing to me. My friends keep asking me more and more about nice places to go for having brunch or lunch in different Swiss cities. If I am travelling I never go to tourist traps. This is the kind of things that I hate, I rather go away from the plotted trails. I just hate those restaurants with no comfiness, no personality, and normal or boring food. If the word “cute” does not come out of my mouth when I am entering or ready to enter in a restaurant, and this is an…

Turn, and the World is Yours!
I am very happy to finally share with you a project that I have been working on, since the end of April. First of all, I am proud to announce you that I am part of this year Piaget Possession Ambassadress. I grew up in Lausanne, the french-speaking part of Switzerland and I know the house Piaget since forever. I could not be happier to collaborate with the jewelry and watch brand by standing, starting from today until the end of the week, 28th of May, with other great and entrepreneurs women for this contest. The contest consists of sharing my photographs and a little Gif that we shot with the talented Emilie…

Classic & Elegant
You might have realised that I am totally into UBER. Okay, true, I am still waiting for UBER to come to Lucerne. Some people have told me that the whole concept and company is unfair to taximen and their profession, but I am not really okay with this statement. First of all, I am still a student. Paying more than the double price of an UBER course, by taking a normal taxi, does not make me hesitate. I doubt that many people would be willing the pay double or triple of their course if they could not. Plus, I am a digital person, I am so into apps, no need to…

Rose Pastel
You might have realized through my Insta feed that pink is quite au Rendez-Vous for this Spring. As if, we could call it springtime in Switzerland. Okay, not true, I just got back from a weekend in Tessin, and in Locarno it was warm and beautiful. The color pink is no longer synonym to this baby girl, but more and more associated with “babe” and her cute side. Pastel pink is simply THE color for this season. Of course, we are still loyal to black (black is everything, remember?), but admit that a rose skirt, detailed accessories or a little crop top are super lovely. Fitting so many colors wearing pink…
