Sandra‘s Closet

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.

The outfit: spontaneous, but make it Barbie. A pink tracksuit, worn with complete intention. The jacket silhouette is everywhere right now, and for good reason.

The real talking point: my new Moschino toilet paper roll bag, acquired as a special order ahead of its official launch. Camp and couture in equal measure. The perfect accessory to underscore the glorious kitsch of the Malibu Barbie Café. At home in my closet sits the actual Barbie outfit, still waiting for its debut. But this worked. Perfectly.

My look: Embroidered shell track jacket, and matching shell track pants, both by Givenchy, ribbed cotton tank by Brunello Cucinelli, silver-tone faux pearl necklace, and faux pearl-embellished silver-tone charm, both by Simone Rocha, toilet paper bag by Moschino, drip rose kidskin sandal with crystals 105mm by Valentino, aviator sunglasses with Swarovski crystals by CHANEL, and Oyster Perpetual 36 with a turquoise blue dial by Rolex.

Simone Rocha and Crocs introduce the fifth installment of their ongoing partnership, building on the success of past seasons with a collection that continues to blur the lines between romance and comfort‑driven design.

Simone Rocha does it again, the designer who single-handedly converted the most unlikely Crocs sceptic.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

My favorite are the Ballerina Platforms, that are also available in black …

… and the Soho Sandals in jade.

Marking the beginning of a new month and celebrating Switzerland’s National Day right where I am, in the heart of it. Dressed in Alaïa, inspired by the graceful spiral of the Guggenheim Museum in New York, curves, structure, and movement. Art and architecture translated into fashion.

A touch of lace, a whisper of dreams. For last week’s bridal-themed MY STYLE ROCKS episode, I stepped into a gown that once waited patiently for its moment. Today, it shines under a different kind of spotlight — one that celebrates style, strength, and a little bit of magic. Sometimes, dresses find their destiny in unexpected places.

As worn in Gala Episode 62 «Wedding» on MY STYLE ROCKS Season 2.

My look: Ruffled bridal dress and matching lace garter with blue bow, and veil with feathers, all by Christopher Kane, long daisy leaf clyster earrings by Simone Rocha, printed metallic leather box clutch by Dolce & Gabbana, and white silk pumps with crystals by Saint Laurent.

This collaboration explores the creative juxtaposition of femininity and utilitarianism, bringing to life new designs that combine Crocs’ practical DNA with Simone Rocha‘s signature aesthetic. The collaboration was shown alongside the S/S 2024 collection «The Dress Rehearsal» which explored notions of matrimony and ceremony. The styles reflect these ideas shown through tiered cake inspired embellishments in crystal and pearl that have become synonymous to the brand.

The collection includes three silhouettes – the Classic Clog, the Siren and the Quick Trail.

The Classic Clog was the signature starting point of the collaboration, exploring the idea of adorning the Crocs, pushing the style into a precious place in contrast to its practical nature.

The Siren is a new shape marrying the ideas of femininity and practicality.

The Quick Trail is rooted in Crocs’ authentic comfort, an archive style that has been reissued and reimagined.

The collection is available at Simone Rocha stores and online from April 2024.

Maybe it is not in the perfection of life that things make sense, but in the chaos. This can also apply to an outfit. Sometimes I like to mix and match unexpected things. The chaos can create perfection. With much love from Gstaad Palace.
