For my Swiss and German based readers: My new column in the SI Style magazine is available now. This time, I am telling you more about La Nuit Monégasque and the Versace for H&M launch party in NYC.

Moreover, the Swiss Peach Paper is featuring two pages of my must-haves in their recent edition.

I was really excited that Elle Bélgique featured me and my post about the amazing decor for Chanel’s Paris-Bombay show.

Thank you!

The Balenciaga.Leather Biker Jacket

Balenciaga Biker

Spotted on many celebrities, the Balenciaga.Leather biker jacket can be named a true classic. Each season, the French fashion house is launching it in new tempting colours.  The jacket has long sleeves, zip up detail and is made of 100% lamb skin.

While the classic black version never goes out of style, your daydream calls probably for a slightly more whimsical iteration of the biker look.

I am having it in a bright orange and I am loving it! Below I am wearing it with leather pants by Balenciaga, a top by Miu Miu, shoes by YSL and a daisy necklace by Dior Haute Joaillerie.

Advent Calendar Day 16

This revolutionary magnetic nail lacquer by nails inc. London used to create stunning 3D nail art designs in chic metallic shades is a lovely gift for a nail polish devotee or for yourself to wow during X-mas time.

Choose from three magnetic polishes named after iconic London attractions: Trafalgar Square (chrome), Houses of Parliament (purple), and Whitehall Teal (teal). I am using Houses of Parliament in the pictures.

This unique formula has been specially developed with metallic particles to create a pattern on the nail using magnetic forces. As the magnet is held over the nail, the iron powder in the formulation gravitates toward the magnet forming the pattern secretly hidden in the magnet for an astonishing finish. The magnet is included in the cap of the nail polish.

Those nail polishes are available at  Sephora. For a tutorial, I recommend this video:

Now it is time to marvel about the amazing nail designs that you have created!
