My Look: Maybe

Maybe it is not in the perfection of life that things make sense, but in the chaos. This can also apply to an outfit. Sometimes I like to mix and match unexpected things. The chaos can create perfection. With much love from Gstaad Palace.

My look: Houndstooth long belted coat in blue and white, matching houndstooth shorts, dark blue cashmere sweater with logo (all from the Pre-Collection F/W 2019), suede boots with sleeve, patchwork classic flap shoulder bag (2012), and AirPods case in white caviar leather, all by CHANEL, Sabrina wool-felt and fishnet capicon by Eugenia Kim, silver-tone, faux pearl and crystal earringsicon by Simone Rocha, Double C diamond black lacquer white gold ring by Cartier, and Aquanaut Luce in khaki green by Patek Philippe.

My Look: Green with Purple

The color combination of green with purple might leave others green with envy. Personally speaking it is a match made in heaven and a beautiful alternative to the typical holiday colors, red and green. I wore this look for a night out in London.

My Look: Bahrain

I started the New Year well with an amazing trip to Bahrain. Situated on the Persian Gulf between Qatar and the northeastern coast of Saudi Arabia, to which it is connected by the King Fahd Causeway, it comprises a small archipelago made up of 50 natural islands and an additional 33 artificial islands, centered on Bahrain Island which makes up around 83 per cent of the country’s landmass. The capital and largest city is Manama. Here I took these pictures while strolling around. I love the juxtaposition of modernity and tradition.

In terms of dress code, it is respectful to cover your shoulders and knees. I recommend wearing a scarf in case you want to visit a religious place.

My look: Broderie anglaise belted top, and matching broderie anglaise linen flared pants, both by Zimmermann23P light blue quilted caviar leather small classic double flap bag, and matching 23P caviar quilted mini chain belt bag, and sunglasses, all by CHANEL, Chevaloscope scarf 90 in rose/blue/multicolore by Hermès, and Dellena 100 leather wedge sandals by Jimmy Choo.

My Look: Barbados

This weekend I went to Barbados and had the best time. It’s no secret that that the Caribbean island has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world with aquamarine waters and soft sands. The weather was changing between being sunny and light rain showers, providing a dramatic scenery. The perfect surrounding to sport this beautiful look.

My look: Colours Of Palccoyo jersey maxi dress by Johanna Ortiz, Bromelia 100 metallic canvas espadrille wedge sandals by Castañer, sunglasses with golden frame and burgundy lenses by Gucci, small messenger flap bag in Tiffany blue by CHANEL, Oscar seashell choker by Isabel Marant, Rose Céleste necklace, and Rose des Vents and Rose Céleste necklace, both by Dior Fine Jewellery, and coral earrings by Oscar de la Renta.
