Knowing – Knowledge is everything. Knowledge sets you free. Knowledge is sexy. Knowledge is power. And so is the perfect scent. Just as knowledge can be enticing and powerful, so too can a fragrance leave a memorable impression. It speaks to how certain qualities – whether intellectual or sensory – have the ability to command attention, evoke emotion, and convey a sense of confidence or charisma. I have fallen in love with Knowing Legacy from the first spritz. Created by Frédéric Malle for the self-assured woman who knows who she is and what she wants, it is a sophisticated, luxurious and confident scent.
«Knowing Legacy is all about skin, fire and a long night.» – Frédéric Malle
Knowing Legacy expands the original rich and luxurious essence of smouldering amber and sandalwood, while notes of black currant and lavish orris push the sensual fragrance even further. It is seductive, full of feminine energy, for the «Eve» within you!
My look: Eve belted crystal-embellished crepe jumpsuit, and matching Eve embellished velvet tote, both by Clio Peppiatt, Angel leather platform sandals by Gucci, and crystal-embellished snake necklace by Alessandra Rich.
My scent: KNOWING LEGACY by Estée Lauder

As promised, here is my outfit that I wore to the radiant dinner with Clé de Peau Beauté in Cannes. We went on a sunset cruise and had a beautiful evening in the gardens of Château de la Napoule. The dress code said «black tie» and as we were unlocking a new radiance, I thought putting on a lot of sparkles is the perfect match!
My look: Sequin tuxedo blazer with feathers, and purple sequin halter gown, both by Michael Kors Collection, crystal-embellished Tan-Go pumps and small VSLING crystal-embellished crossbody bag, both by Valentino, sunglasses by CHANEL, and crystal-embellished snake necklace by Alessandra Rich.

For the Loubishow, that took place during Paris Fashion Week, I stepped into the spotlight with these amazing fringed overknee boots. Commanding attention with every step, they make a bold statement. With so many western style boots on display for the new season, I couldn’t have chosen a better pair to wear that night.
My look: Cropped wool jacket with gold buttons by Saint Laurent, crystal-embellished cotton collar by Area, knitted denim leggings, and denim knit hood, both by Alaïa, crystal-embellished cotton collar by Area, Bolcheva 120 fringed suede over-the-knee boots, and Palmette crystal-embellished suede cross-body bag, both by Christian Louboutin, crystal-embellished snake necklace by Alessandra Rich, mirrored sunglasses by Balenciaga, Maillon de Cartier 16mm 18-karat white gold diamond watch, and Clash de Cartier bracelet MM in white gold, both by Cartier.

Finally after three years, the Kispiball (Kispi is an abbreviation for Kinderspital which means children’s hospital in German) took place again at the wonderful Baur au Lac hotel in Zurich. It is one of my favorite charity events of the Swiss social calendar that raises money for the city’s children’s hospital. I danced all night long in my Dolce & Gabbana gown and enjoyed being among my dear friends.
My look: Strapless polka-dot silk-organza gown, and «’L’Amore È Bellezza» ribbon belt, both by Dolce & Gabbana, pink double bow satin pumps by Mach & Mach, Tro crystal-embellished leather shoulder bag by Oscar de la Renta, and crystal-embellished snake necklace by Alessandra Rich.

My house is still a big construction site, therefore I moved a few days to Baur au Lac to enjoy some dust-free time. However, it is coming along and I cannot wait to see the final result.
My look: Single-breasted jacket with floral pin by Louis Vuitton, zebra-print chiffon wrap mini dress, matching Alma zebra-print satin clutch, and black sandals, all by The Attico, heart shaped earrings, and crystal-embellished snake necklace, both by Alessandra Rich.

I celebrated New Year’s Eve in grand style at the beautiful Gstaad Place hotel with friends. Towering over the village of Gstaad, the address offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding Swiss Alps, and always the best parties with unique service. Even if we weren’t allowed to dance, the celebration was great and we still managed to move on our seats.
I wore this beautiful black Monique Lhuillier gown inspired by classic ’50s couture. It has a guipure lace bodice trimmed with a waist-cinching satin sash and a frothy tulle skirt that’s discreetly padded to create all that volume.
My Look: Satin-trimmed guipure lace and tulle gown by Monique Lhuillier, zodiac embroidered appliquéd canvas clutch by Olympia Le-Tan, Kate 100 suede pumps by Christian Louboutin, crystal-embellished snake necklace, and silver-tone crystal clip earrings, both by Alessandra Rich, bracelets and Panthère de Cartier Manchette 22mm 18-karat rose gold and diamond watch, all by Cartier.
