Sandra‘s Closet

«Some days you’re the pigeon, some days you’re the statue.»

Lately, I’ve been living in the space between those two, standing still while life leaves its marks, yet still refusing to lose my grace. Fashion has always been my quiet form of resilience, a language beyond words. Today I wear Tom Ford, a silhouette sculpted with the kind of strength I need right now. Haider Ackermann’s vision for the house speaks of poetry and precision, softness wrapped around steel and I love how he translates that into something as simple yet refined as a cashmere jogging pant: effortless, elegant, and impossibly comfortable. And in my hand, a pigeon clutch by JW Anderson, a symbol of both peace and fragility, and a reminder that even stillness can have wings.

My look: Wool-blend sweater, jersey tapered trackpants, gold-tone choker, and gold-tone cuff, all by Tom Ford, pigeon resin clutch by JW Anderson, Torchon gold-tone crystal clip earrings by Alessandra Rich, LV Link square sunglasses by Louis Vuitton, and Jeanne embellished glossed-leather slingback pumps by Saint Laurent.

They say black never goes out of style, but this F/W 2025 season, brown is redefining elegance. In Boston, I embraced a head-to-toe brown look that feels effortlessly chic, warm, and sophisticated. To break the monotony and add a playful twist, I styled it with a vibrant Christian Louboutin bag, the perfect pop of color that turns the entire outfit into a true statement. Sometimes, it only takes one bold accessory to elevate a monochrome look from classic to unforgettable.

My look: Cable-knit wool and cashmere puffer jacket, and cotton midi dress, both by Polo Ralph Lauren, Torchon gold-tone crystal clip earrings by Alessandra Rich, Frankie 85 snake-effect leather ankle boots by Jimmy Choo, and Breizcaba embellished embroidered felt and leather-trimmed canvas tote by Christian Louboutin.

My flight to Zurich is canceled tonight, so I get to enjoy one more evening in Boston. Against the city’s skyline in the golden sun, I’m wearing a seductive yet cool look: denim with lace cut-outs at the legs, paired with a matching lace top. A clutch with New York’s skyline adds a playful twist across borders.

Fashion always comes full circle, and brands from the ’90s and 2000s, think Blumarine, are experiencing a powerful revival. Today, I’m celebrating that spirit in my own way.

My Look: Floral Chantilly lace top, and lace-trimmed low-rise wide-leg jeans, both by Blumarine, Carmella NYC Skyline beaded clutch by Staud, embellished leather necklace by Alessandra Rich, sunglasses by CHANEL, and Jodie suede platform sandals by Saint Laurent.

For this MY STYLE ROCKS gala evening, inspired by the theme «My Best Friend’s Wedding,» I envisioned the moment at the registry office, intimate, elegant, and full of emotion.
I chose a structured pink ensemble that merges classic romance with contemporary tailoring, a statement of joyful sophistication and modern femininity. The belt reads «L’amore è bellezza»,  a subtle detail that captures the spirit of the day.

Sometimes, fashion says yes long before the vows are spoken.

Worn in gala episode 124 of MY STYLE ROCKS Season 2.

My look: Pink lace dress and «’L’Amore È Bellezza» ribbon belt, both by Dolce & Gabbana, vintage pink fascinator by Dior, Greca embellished platform sandals by Versace, vintage silk satin clutch with colorful stones by Prada, white butterfly tinted sunglasses by Valentino, and metal bow earrings with crystal embellishment by Alessandra Rich.

For our «City Girl» theme on MY STYLE ROCKS, where we asked contestants to create a look inspired by their favorite city, I simply couldn’t choose just one, so I wore them all.

I chose a fabulous Balenciaga dress printed with iconic skylines from Paris, London, Tokyo, and Berlin, paired with heels featuring the Big Ben and Eiffel Tower sculpted into the heels. To top it off, I carried a sparkling Eiffel Tower clutch bag, because every city girl deserves a little extra shine.

I was in Germany, wrapped in the tenderness and sorrow of visiting my seriously ill parents. In the midst of it all, I chose to wear an outfit that felt like armor and poetry at once. Sometimes, dressing up isn’t about the world seeing you. It’s about feeling like yourself again, if only for a moment.

Elegance can be quiet, almost healing. That day, it gave me a sense of calm, strength, and a whisper of beauty when I needed it most.

My look: Floral-appliqué ruched top in beige, and matching floral-appliqué ruched midi skirt, both by Magda Butrym, crystal-embellished gold-tone necklace by Versace, bi-color heart-shaped earrings by Alessandra Rich, 30 Montaigne SU oversized ivory square sunglasses by Dior, and Opera 105 leather sandals by Gianvito Rossi.
