My Look: Happy Fourth of July

To all my US readers, I am wishing you a very Happy 4th of July! When I lived in Chicago, it always felt so special since it’s a celebration of all things summer with backyard barbecues, beach days, and fireworks. To honor this memory, I am wearing stars and stripes, blue, red and white today. I added some rainbow colors as a symbol of LGBT pride and to remember the true meaning of Independence Day: «Home of the Free because of the Brave».

My look: Jacquard-knit mini dressicon by GivenchyPeggy striped platform sneakersicon by Gucci, embroidered denim clutch by Marc Jacobs, D-fence visor cap in white cotton by DiorHorsebit blue topaz diamond white gold ringicon by Gucci Fine Jewellery, and earrings by Chanel.

LoL, Sandra

My Look: Jurassic World

Sandra_Bauknecht_Jurassic_World_Saint_laurent_Dinosaur_Jacket_Gucci_Sandals

«Dino Cool» – the hype and success of Jurassic World hit the catwalk. Combined with one of the oldest dyeing techniques (with first traces found in ancient Egypt) that was popular in the 70’s, tie dye, it creates a cool look. The cherry on the cake is Marc Jacobs‘ eye-catching take on the American Flag. Perfect for me as I am leaving to New York today… stay tuned.

My look: Embellished striped wool and linen-blend and leather bomber jacket and tie-dyed cotton-jersey T-shirt, both by Saint Laurent, black jeans by Dolce & Gabbana,
embroidered denim clutch by Marc Jacobsicon, embellished metallic leather sandals and aviator-style metal sunglasses, both by Gucci.

LoL, Sandra
