Since its inception in 1978, Versace stands for female sensuality for the modern woman. With a palette of fresh pastels and callbacks to previous collections, this season expands on the house’s iconic signatures, that I have always been a fan of like this beautiful ensemble in sky blue.
My look: 1978 Re-Edition logo-embroidered jumper, check-effect wool-blend tweed mini, La Medusa crystal-embellished mini bag, Medusa Aevitas embellished satin platform sandals, and Medusa-plaque satin headband, all by Versace, Horsebit blue topaz diamond white gold ring by Gucci Fine Jewellery, fishnet tights with Swarovski crystals by Calzedonia, and Oyster Perpetual 36 with turquoise dial by Rolex.

Now showing at Sandra’s Closet: «The back pack is back». At least this is what is written on the cassette sticker with DIY scrawl on my newest collector’s item: the Louis Vuitton S/S 2020 Video Tape Clutch.
Yesterday I had a quick stopover in Zurich to change my luggage as I am leaving today for Sylt. I have so many great things to show your from my travels, so please stay tuned. I tried to do a little digital detox for the past two weeks and it worked pretty well.
My look: Zinnia halterneck polka-dot linen and cotton-blend voile jumpsuit by Zimmermann, printed silk turban by Fendi, video tape clutch by Louis Vuitton, quilted leather mules by Bottega Veneta, cat-eye marbled-acetate sunglasses by Gucci, GG Running 18-karat white gold diamond hoop earrings, GG Running diamond X ring, and GG Running double diamond ring with chain, all by Gucci Fine Jewellery, and Pasha C chronograph in steel (2000) by Cartier.
The Pasha watch will be relaunched in September by Cartier, so I thought it is a great idea to dust mine and sport it again. To find out more, click here please.

Candy colors I love – we look cute together. Madame de Pompadour and Marie Antoinette would surely agree with me as they are best known for favoring hues such as baby blue and pale pink in particular. Those soft and sweet feminine shades represent a dramatic break with the dark and moody colors often favored in wintertime, which has long given pastels a strong affiliation with the spring and summer months. For me at the moment, they represent a new beginning and the association with holidays and escapism after those quarantine days.
My look: Stagno coat in light blue by Max Mara, single-breasted floral-lace jacket, partial-lined flared lace trousers, and crystal-embellished sunglasses, all by Gucci, white knitted polo shirt by CHANEL, Love 100 pumps by Jimmy Choo, crystal-embellished leather phone case by Prada, GG Running 18-karat white gold diamond ring and GG Running 18-karat white gold diamond double ring, both by Gucci Fine Jewellery.
Follow my rule: «Better wear candy than eat it… !»

Such a magic weekend … yesterday, I attended the Kispiball 2019 (Kispi is an abbreviation for Kinderspital which means children’s hospital in German) that always takes place at the 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 felt very honored to draw the four exclusive raffle prizes, such as a Chopard watch or a beautiful fine jewellery ring by Bucherer.
My look: Gena embroidered silk chiffon dress by Costarellos, Dionysus pink velvet super mini bag, and leather platform pumps, both by Gucci, silver-plated, Swarovski crystal and faux pearl clip earrings, both by Miu Miu and Horsebit blue topaz diamond white gold ring by Gucci Fine Jewellery.

To all my US readers, I am wishing you a very Happy 4th of July! When I lived in Chicago, it always felt so special since it’s a celebration of all things summer with backyard barbecues, beach days, and fireworks. To honor this memory, I am wearing stars and stripes, blue, red and white today. I added some rainbow colors as a symbol of LGBT pride and to remember the true meaning of Independence Day: «Home of the Free because of the Brave».
My look: Jacquard-knit mini dress by Givenchy, Peggy striped platform sneakers by Gucci, embroidered denim clutch by Marc Jacobs, D-fence visor cap in white cotton by Dior, Horsebit blue topaz diamond white gold ring by Gucci Fine Jewellery, and earrings by Chanel.
