Do you know that you can design your own Converse sneakers? Style your ultimate pair of Converse shoes with this fun online application, available on their homepage. This interactive designer can be pretty addictive. You can even personalize your creation. Pretty cool, isn’t it?
The only problem is that they don’t ship to Europe. I got mine sent to my hotel in Maui while I was there.
And here they are… living up to the recent neon trend.

Something for my Swiss and German based readers: The newest issue of SI Style magazine featuring my monthly fashion column is available now.
This time, I am telling you more about my road trip through the US and the horrible hailstorm, that I hit on my way back from Mount Rushmore.

Many Marseille locals love their panoramic view of the Notre-Dame de la Garde basilica that majestically reigns over the Provençal city. But it is more than just a religious monument, it’s a participant in the life of the city: the inhabitants refer to it in everyday language as “La Bonne Mère”, or the “Good Mother” which is an expression of surprise, relief and joy. It is synomynous for the love of a mother and confers to the Virgin Mary.
L’Occitane, founded by Olivier Baussan in 1976 with the purpose to celebrate and preserve the traditions of his native Provence, continues with the traditions of soap masters with a tribute to the “Good Mother” through its Bonne Mère line of soaps and body products which are all-natural, hypoallergenic, made with a pure plant base and lightly scented. The only question you have to answer is if you prefer milk or honey?
Savon de Marseille 100g (CHF 6.-)
Douceur de Douche – Gentle Shower Gel – 600ml (CHF 24.-)
Crème Lavante Mains – Creamy Hand Wash – 300ml (CHF 16.-)
Crème Douceur – Gentle Cream – 75ml (CHF 22.-)
I love the retro-feel of the packaging that looks adorable on display. Transform your bathroom in a land of milk and honey.
