This summer has been treating me well so far. I had lots of magical encounters, discovered great places, and met a lot of amazing people. Grateful, adorable… happy.

Those photos dedicated to Louboutin‘s Greekaba collection have been taken last year in Crete. However, I have never posted them as they are pretty daring besides my natural curls (haha). This morning, I woke up and thought why am I hesitating? Why women always feel this need of being perfect, or are told that some things are not allowed for them at a certain age. Men never care, why do we?! So here you go … if you don’t like it, then better don’t scroll.
With full moon in aquarius on the first of August, it is time to set yourself free. It is your chance to activate your first house of self, identity, and personal goals and ambitions. This is your personal cosmic release. Let go of any ways of being that no longer feel aligned. Many things might come to you and will be revealed. Trust the process.
My look: La Chemise body stretch shirt bodysuit in white by Jacquemus, brown suede pleated mini skirt by Miu Miu, Cycladissimo 120 leather-trimmed embroidered canvas wedge sandals, and Carasky Loubi mini embroidered shoulder bag, both by Christian Louboutin, and faux-pearl tassel earrings by Oscar de la Renta.

Blended by the breathtaking beauty of Santorini and its amazing sunsets, I wore this vibrant look for a night out in Oia. It is an amazing destination to have your vacation with its Cycladian architecture, the picturesque scenery, and the volcanic landscape. Every corner offers a photo opportunity. Make sure to wear flat sandals or wedge platforms for exploring the stone paved alleys of the Greek island. Another thing to have in mind is that the stones might get really slippery, thus you must be careful and don’t risk your safety for a picture.
My look: GG diagonal silk kaftan, GG Multicolour platform espadrille, GG Marmont Multicolour small shoulder bag, and cat-eye marbled-acetate sunglasses, all by Gucci, faux-pearl tassel earrings by Oscar de la Renta, Oyster Perpetual 36 with turquoise dial by Rolex, and J’Adior bracelet set by Dior.

Today, I would like to show you my favorite comfy look this season. The photos were taken inside the beautiful Royal Suite at Clinique La Prairie. The perfect outfit for cozy days on the couch, zoom meetings and travelling. This week, it served me well as I got my COVID-19 vaccine (Moderna) which has completely knocked me out. It might be because I had the virus and I still have a high amount of antibodies. I have experienced chills, fever and a heavy headache. Thank God, I only need one shot.
My look: Artax tie-dyed cashmere wrap, and Miller tie-dyed cashmere sweater, both by Gabriela Hearst, Rachelle cashmere wide-leg pants by Khaite, logo-embossed leather espadrilles by Saint Laurent, Kelly Danse II in Verso Blush/Rose Jaipur Evercolor leather by Hermès, faux-pearl tassel earrings by Oscar de la Renta, bracelets by Cartier, and Royal Oak 37mm 18-karat frosted rose gold watch by Audemars Piguet.

I love going on vacation by car as you can pack as much as you like. On the other hand, with the right hand luggage, flying can be also very convenient. For me, there is nothing quite like my new chic Lexicon Hardside Global Carry-On by Victorinox to induce that sense of wanderlust. The champagne coloured trolley is not just impossibly pretty, but also unbreakable and packed with lots of smart features. These include an interior compression system which allows you to make the most of the space inside, TSA-approved lock, built-in battery pocket for charging your USB devices, as well as premium 360° wheels for a smooth, easy roll.
My look: Appliquéd cotton-twill jumpsuit by Mira Mikati, pink satin bow hairband
by Prada, vintage white black rasoir cut-off cat-eye sunglasses by Miu Miu, faux-pearl tassel earrings by Oscar de la Renta, silver-tone beaded choker by Isabel Marant, Ace sneaker with crystals by Gucci, and Shopper Bistrot Panier S straw tote by Balenciaga.

Last night, I was invited by JELMOLI to celebrate the opening of their contemporary fashion department on the second floor that features brands like Peter Pilotto, Jonathan Simkhai, Diane von Furstenberg, Rochas, Alexandre Vauthier and Koché among others.
The event was very unexpected and a real experience. Check-in began on the street in front of the department store (queue was shockingly long), then we boarded open-air buses and were driven to the underground delivery station below JELMOLI where the fashion show and party took place. A very successful and fun night.
Quick stop at the LA MER counter at JELMOLI before the event with a friend for a luxury treatment session that I can only recommend.
My look: Fringed printed cotton and silk-blend jersey dress by Loewe, embellished woven straw tote by Rosie Assoulin, ankle boots Kole by Chloé, bi-colour chain necklace by Prada, cuff by Stella McCartney, rose diamond ring by Piaget and faux-pearl tassel earrings by Oscar de la Renta.

A trip into the blue… from one location to the other. This is what I love – finding unexpected little places, beautiful hotels and exploring new territories. Here you see me on the rooftop terrace of the Hotel de Tourrel in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence in the South of France. With only 7 rooms, it is a real treasure in the city center.
My look: Patchwork cotton top and patchwork asymmetrical-hem skirt, both by Loewe, DiorClub2 D-frame acetate sunglasses by Dior, Pixie small suede and textured-leather shoulder bag by Chloé, beaded leather sandals by Saint Laurent, faux-pearl tassel earrings by Oscar de la Renta, daisy necklace by Dior Fine Jewellery, Amulette necklace by Cartier, cuff by Chanel, Tonda 1950 Clarity watch by Parmigiani Fleurier and diamond ring by Vainard Fine Jewellery.

I am really in love with Natacha Ramsay-Levi‘s designs for Chloé. For her S/S 2018 debut collection for the French Maison, she collaborated with an artist to develop prints and patterns that symbolizes nature, rebirth, the human body and new beginnings.
In general, Chloé used to be too big on me. Since Natacha took over the helmet, everything fits me perfectly and flatters the body. To a beautiful Chloé summer…
My look: Ruffled printed silk mini dress, Pixie small suede and textured-leather shoulder bag and Rylee pointy toe boots, all by Chloé, faux-pearl tassel earrings by Oscar de la Renta, cuff by Céline and Mitza ring by Dior Haute Joaillerie.
