The bucket hat has perhaps had one of the biggest fashion glow-ups in the accessories market. Personally speaking, I love this relaxed style that has become a summer must-have for me, easy to pack and very lightweight, much easier than a big straw hat that hardly fits in your suitcase.
High-fashion brands, like Celine, Etro and Kate Spade took the bucket hat to the S/S 2021 runway, showing how trendy it is.
There’s no one way to wear a bucket hat anymore, as the style is as brilliant paired with a mesh beach cover-up as it is with a luxurious tropical print dress. Below you can find my favorites.
Happy Monday! To shop, just click on the highlighted product description.

Summer’s most unexpected wardrobe equation? Hoodie plus wide skirt. As a new variation of the tracksuit, this combination is definitely more presentable. Prada‘s S/S 2021 runway look has immediately become my favorite, a picture of cool.
My look: Triangle logo-plaque cotton hooded sweatshirt
, printed jersey cape, and matching Signaux printed cotton-jersey midi skirt, triangle logo-plaque high-neck jersey top, logo-plaque nylon-gabardine headband, pocket logo-strap crossbody bag, Synthesis high-top sneakers, and single triangle earring, all by Prada.

The ’90s are making a comeback. Like history, fashion has a tendency to repeat itself. From your ‘90s childhood you need to start wearing leggings and oversized denim shirts again. Personally speaking, it feels so bizarre seeing my own daughter sporting all those looks three decades later. However, I have always loved being a ’90s child and am indulging in this revival, mixing new and vintage pieces.
My look: Ribbed-knit crop top, logo-plaque leggings, oversized denim shirt, and white leather loafers, all by Prada, vintage sunglasses (GG 2418) by Gucci, fan leather earrings by Isabel Marant.

I know I got your attention at «cheesy». Fashion should be fun and not be taken too seriously! This yellow Prada sweater got the internet talking and let’s be frank, it resembles Swiss cheese that is known for its distinctive appearance with several holes. However, I find it very fashion-forward and extremely cool especially when worn together with the matching black open-knit sweater. Being proudly Swiss, I love cheese and I adore this Prada look so much. It was actually my favorite from the S/S 2021 collection and it is also very «Pantone Color of the Year 2021». With Central European weather going crazy at the moment, it is the perfect outfit at the moment.
In case your wondering about the placement of the bow brooch… one hole is placed a little unfortunate revealing a little too much in movement.
My look: Distressed logo-intarsia sweater in yellow, distressed open-weave wool sweater in black, belted pleated mohair-blend skirt, two-tone slingback pumps, and Re-Nylon scrunchie, all by Prada, Constance 24 in Evercolor Lime with palladium hardware by Hermès, satin bow brooch by CHANEL, rose diamond ring by Piaget, Carrera Automatic Chronograph by TAG Heuer, Cameo embellished earrings, and faux pearl and crystal barrette, both by Simone Rocha.

It is finally time to dress up and go out in style as restaurants are open again in Switzerland. One of my favorite spots to eat in Zurich is La Muña at La Réserve Eden au Lac Zurich that serves Japanese Peruvian specialties. Designed by Philippe Starck, it is a treasure chest, mingling imaginary memories of moments spent on the lake with extraordinary objects found in the city and around the world beneath the hotel’s spectacular dome.
As we have experienced lots of rain in Switzerland recently, my new wool-blend coat is the perfect cover-up for those chilly days. It works for going out as well as snuggling on the couch.
My look: Eliona belted hooded merino wool-blend coat by The Row, cutout striped pleated wool-blend midi dress by Gabriela Hearst, Birkin 30 in gold Epsom leather by Hermès, orange gold-tone and resin clip earrings, and flower pendant cable-chain necklace, both by Dolce & Gabbana, two-tone slingback pumps by Prada, and Carrera Automatic Chronograph by TAG Heuer.

I am wishing you a wonderful first day of May! It is the day to gift lilies of the valley as a symbol of springtime to someone whom you would like to wish happiness. I am wearing them as a beautiful print today.
It was also Christian Dior‘s favorite flower and his lucky charm. He would stitch a stem of lily of the valley into the seam of his dresses for good luck. To celebrate this beautiful tradition, I have been spoilt by the Dior team in Zurich today with a beautiful gift.
To find out more about the symbolism of lilies of the valley and the history behind it, I invite you to read a previous post by clicking here.
My look: Lily of the valley-print pussy-bow silk blouse and Lily of the Valley-print pleated silk skirt, both by Valentino, checked wool-blend tweed jacket and Jodie rose-embellished leather platform sandals, by Saint Laurent, silver-tone, crystal and faux pearl clip earrings by Alessandra Rich, Himalaya Niloticus crocodile Birkin bag by Hermès, and crystal embellished scrunchie by Prada, diamond ring and diamond bracelet, both by Vainard Fine Jewellery.
