I’ve never believed that style should come with an expiration date. If you feel good in something, wear it. If it gives you confidence, even better. Fashion isn’t about age. It’s about attitude. That’s why I called this post Break the Stigma. We spend far too much time discussing what women should or shouldn’t wear at a certain age. I’ve never followed those rules and I’m not about to start now as you can see.
One of my favorite places in Saint-Tropez is Le Café. You can have dinner, dance, step outside for a quick game of pétanque, and then go straight back to the party. Effortless, joyful, and completely fun.
Wear the sparkles. Dance a little longer.
Also worn in Episode 71 of MY STYLE ROCKS SEASON 1.
My look: Crystal-embellished lace jumpsuit by Stella McCartney, feather-detail double-breasted blazer by Valentino, Hourglass crystal-embellished suede shoulder bag

Sparkle and oversized denim. With a broken heart.
These photos were taken on my daughter Anouk‘s terrace in Boston, a place she called home for six years and is now leaving behind. Moving back to Europe is the right decision. It is also an emotional one. And sometimes the only answer to big feelings is an even bigger look.
And yes, oversized is not exactly the silhouette I reach for first. But that is precisely the point. Because the moment you stop reinventing yourself is the moment you start standing still. In fashion as in life: keep moving forward. That is the real secret to staying young.
My look: Oversized crystal-embellished denim shirt, and matching crystal-embellished wide-leg jeans, both by Stella McCartney, Cassandre cotton T-shirt by Saint Laurent, silver-tone faux pearl necklace, and faux pearl-embellished silver-tone charm, both by Simone Rocha, Hourglass crystal-embellished suede shoulder bag, logo baseball cap, and kit charm key ring, all by Balenciaga, Triple S sneakers in white with black stripes by Balenciaga x adidas.

There are cities that dress you differently. Tbilisi is one of them. When I was planning what to wear for my first evening in Georgia, it felt only right to let the destination guide the choices, not just in mood, but in origin.
The bag I chose is Balenciaga from the Demna era. For those who don’t know: Demna Gvasalia, one of the most influential designers of his generation, is Georgian. His early work for the house carries something raw and architectural that, to me, has always felt deeply rooted in where he comes from. The necklace and the bodysuit are by David Koma, another Georgian talent who has built an international name while never losing that precise, almost sculptural approach to dressing.
Two pieces. Two Georgian designers. One city that made the connection feel inevitable.
More from this evening – and from Tbilisi – coming soon.
My look: Hooded wool mini dress by Alaïa, zebra macramé long sleeve bodysuit, and crocodile necklace, both by David Koma, Hourglass crystal-embellished suede shoulder bag by Balenciaga, patchwork belt with snake head buckle by Saint Laurent, and Kiki studded leather platform ankle boots by Marc Jacobs.
