On Saturday we celebrated Street Parade in Zurich, the most attended technoparade in Europe. I prefer leaving the streets to the ravers as I find it too crowded but I still enjoy the music very much. Therefore personally speaking the place to be is the Boum-Boum au Lac party in the exclusive garden of the Hotel Baur au Lac where I also stayed that day in a beautiful corner suite. As it rained the whole morning, it was tough to decide on the outfit. Finally the sun came out and I went for this bohemian style.
My look: Veneto cropped off-the-shoulder crinkled ramie and cotton-blend gauze top, Veneto shirred crinkled ramie and cotton-blend gauze maxi skirt and raffia belt bag, all by Zimmermann, suede and wooden clogs by Miu Miu, beaded bracelet by Saint Laurent, gold-tone necklace with shell charms, and gold-tone and shell choker, both by Isabel Marant, bohemian headpiece by Chanel.
LoL, Sandra

I just got back from Rio de Janeiro, where I was with Omega for the Olympic Games, filled with amazing memories that I cannot wait to share with you. But before that, I would like to show you my summer essentials which have been this season a white dress and an off-the-shoulder neckline. This flattering boho style has an elasticated waistband to balance the loose cut. I love wearing mine with sandals for the ultimate vacation feeling even in the city.
My look: Pallas off-the-shoulder embroidered cotton-blend dress by Peter Pilotto, beaded leather sandals and beaded bracelet, both by Saint Laurent, sky-blue Marcie hobo bag by Chloé, pearl earrings by Chanel, Horsebit blue topaz diamond white gold ring by Gucci Fine Jewellery and Tonda 1950 Set Clarity watch by Parmigiani Fleurier.

Generally speaking, sequins got a huge upgrade during the last seasons, they are definitely no longer for the night time party girls only, they look sophisticated for the office, your shopping trip or wherever you like to go. Sequins can easily transition from day and night and don’t forget they provide an instant light on your face! I wore this dress in Los Angeles during the day (for the previous post, please click here) and yesterday in Sardinia at Forte Village for a night out dancing.
My look: Daga sequined bandage dress (30% off now) by Hervé Léger, Bianca metallic elaphe sandals and beaded bracelet, both by Saint Laurent, patchwork clutch by Prada, Limelight Gala watch by Piaget and diamond ring by Vainard Fine Jewellery.
Don’t let anyone dull your sparkle! Shine on!
