Y2k-esque body chains that popped up last season are still reigning supreme.
Stack it! The more the merrier. Let your arm candy do the talking!
But pearls are for tears, the old legend says. Hopefully this is not true as this winter, there will be lots of drama otherwise.
Stones and seashells are not only for summer, those natural elements are taking over in a big way in winter.
E-girl chokers add to the season’s list of new must-haves accessories.
Get ready to see over-the-top florals paired with classic jewelry pieces—including chokers, bracelets, rings and so much more.
The beloved classic is updated with new textures and colors for fall.
F/W 2022 is filled with many statement-making sparkles. Nothing for the shy…

When it comes to trending looks, these are the F/W 2022 accessories trends you need to know about. According to the runways, the balaclava certainly takes home the cake as trendiest accessories with multiple designers across the big four fashion capitals featuring the cozy headpiece in their collections. From Kim Kardashian to Alaïa (who has always featured them, just saying) to fast fashion brands, you can find countless ski-mask-like hoods, now it is certain that this trend has entered the mainstream.

One leather belt simply will not be enough. The double belt is a must – the strappier the better.
The emancipation is in full bloom as we wear the ties next season as well.
The neck scarf is back to keep you warm this winter.
Dior built gemstones and Simone Rocha ribbon details right into knee-highs. Those kind of socks are a must this winter season.
Many designers showed the all-American baseball cap on the catwalks.
The bigger the better – with these fluffy hats your ears will definitely stay warm.
Tulle netting isn’t just for weddings. Veiled caps are the modern way of coverage.
The fashion for tight-covering headgear has been hailed by style writers as one of the key trends for 2022.

Hello from Crete! Finally I am on «real» vacation, which means for me, no make-up, curly hair, lots of sports, reading and sleeping. I am staying at the Blue Palace Resort, located between the small fishing village of Plaka and the increasingly chic port of Elounda in one of their Island Luxury Suites, that features a private pool, and a beautiful spacious outdoor area. I have barely left my room so far and exercised on my terrace in this fucking fanastic outfit!
My look: Pralù cropped embellished ribbed-knit cardigan, Valensole ribbed-knit bralette
, and Arancia ribbed-knit shorts, all by Jacquemus, Double-Up hat, and Fucking Fantastic socks, all by Ayda, and Balenciaga Triple S sneaker by Balenciaga x adidas.

Grab hold. These are the handbags to get excited about. The F/W 2022 trends have spoken, and there will be a lot of practical types of handbags for the season. My favorite is the return of the hobo bag!
LoL, Sandra
00’s nostalgia has brought the hobo bag back, and designers add some great details to modernize it.
This S/S 2022 trend is here to stay, only in a more delicate way. Tender, heart-shaped bags appeared at Chanel, Simone Rocha, and Jil Sander, on time for Valentine’s Day 2023.
Oversized cozy fluffy bags are all the rage. It is your choice if you go real or fake fur.
When one purse is not enough, Bottega Veneta’s Intrecciato rope bag or Proenza Schouler’s layered double bags are called for.
Studs and beads were scattered across clutches, slouchy shoulder bags and pouches.
Those slim bags feel so modern. They’re ideal for storing small items—for those who prefer to leave their whole kit and kaboodle at home.
With geometric designs and all-over prints, these bags crave to see and be seen.
Those classic bags have their momentum again. Store your personals in boxy style this season.

With the new season arriving in stores, there’s no doubt we’re getting all excited about the newest must-haves footwear. Platforms and overknee boots are still on top of the list. Label of the moment for a shoe investment? Loewe! Jonathan Anderson created many trendy styles for the Spanish house that fashionistas around the globe will try to get their hands on. Don’t forget to put yourself on the waitlist for the CHANEL wellington boots. A must!

Summer season’s popular platform pumps have birthed a movement of sky-high, vampy-sweet shoes that will take us to new heights in winter.
From Loewe’s artsy metallic sandals to Jil Sander’s shimmering gold mules, metallic shine was everywhere this season.
The overknee boot is still holding very strong. However, you might need extra-long legs to wear this season’s best boots.
Designers went big on details with buckles going to the extreme.
Sneakers have gone from chunky dad styles to sophisticated styles. Be it a 3D-printed morph shoe at Stella McCartney, to a mule sneaker at Vuitton or a skate style at Loewe.
This boots are made for walking. Chloé, Dior, and others are betting on outdoorsy, walkable boots.
Designer are getting some fluffy action with footwear in soft textures and oversized volumes.

When Parisian chic takes up summer residence in the sun, a spirit of luxury and refinement pervades the Riviera. The Dior summer escape in the couture colors of blue, pink and orange, taking on the iconic toile de Jouy motif, adorn a selection of ready-to-wear, accessories and lifestyle summer essentials, such as deckchairs, parasols, and cushions, to be discovered in several pop-up and resort stores around the world.
DIORIVIERA – A celebration of the dolce vita so dear to Christian Dior, that is only available in the respective Dior resort shops. I resisted in Saint Tropez, but hold back in Mykonos where I took all of these photos … see for yourself. I hope that you will like it as much as I do.
If you buy something, you will get a shopping bag in blue or pink that is reminiscent of the iconic DIOR Book Tote. It is perfect for the beach.

Beach please! This has definitely been «My Big Fat Greek Summer» so far. After being in the South of France for the month of July, I have spent August on several Greek islands. Santorini, Mykonos and now I am in Crete, on holidays from the holidays. I know it sounds bad but St. Tropez and Mykonos are all about the good life and party. Therefore I am happy to finally have some quiet and relaxing time with my daughter.
This outfit has become one of my favorites for the beach as you can easily transform it into an evening dinner look.

If you are looking for a more quiet dinner place with great food and a beautiful ambiance in Mykonos (there will still be music, but not as loud as at other places), I recommend BEEFBAR MYKONOS. Located in the Bill & Coo Coast Hotel on Agios Ioannis beach, you can find a wide selections of the finest quality meat cuts and contemporary Mediterranean cuisine. The menu offers also grilled fresh fish caught by local fisherman, ceviche, tataki and Kobe beef gyros. Don’t miss the amazing display of fresh vegetables inside the restaurant, it is a real foodie’s paradise.
The interior is beautiful and I enjoyed watching the enchanting view under the shade of the mulberry trees as the sun sank into the Aegean sea.
It is an all-day seaside restaurant that also has the Bill & Coo Beach Club next to it. I have not been during the day but got a lot of positive feedback from friends who went.
The plates are so cute. Designed in collaboration with French porcelain manufacturer Bernardaud, there is a broad selection of different starter plates that you can also order online here for your home.
Beefbar Mykonos is open for lunch between 1PM – 6PM, for dinner 7PM – midnight.
Bill & Coo Beach Club is open between 11AM – 8PM

You know that I am in the process of furnishing my new house and am always on the hunt for special designer pieces as I dedicated each room to a fashion designer. Recently I came along the Maison Christian Lacroix collection for TohaaDesign, the brand that is revolutionizing the decor of your toilets and bathrooms by imagining «new generation» toilet seats through cutting-edge collaborations with renowned street artists.
To personalize this intimate zone with a touch of excellence, TohaaDesign joined forces with Maison Christian Lacroix, which is famous for its unique, exuberant and colorful style. For the collaboration, the iconic «Birds Sinfonia» motif that features the exotic hyacinth macaw, hummingbirds, and exotic flowers, served as the canvas. This figurative drawing comes alive with a flock of birds with shimmering plumage retracing the musical staves of their own song. This design is highlighted by an intense black background, for a chic and elegant look. One toilet seat costs around CHF 140.00. A great price for a fun design!
Located in Paris, TohaaDesign continues to diversify its offerings while remaining faithful to its mission, by glamorizing another poor relation of design, the shower curtain. The «Birds Sinfonia» motif is also available as a wallpaper design.
