Greeting from Mykonos where the Meltemi, a dry northern wind blows over the Aegean during summer strongly. A headscarf is then a great idea to keep hair in place and prevent it from tangling.
Shopping sustainably starts with investing in the right pieces and keeping them for many years to come. An Hermès silk carré is a great example for such an item. My grandmother gifted me with my first one when I was a kid. If you take good care of your collection, you can hand them over to the next generation. Making change together is all about making little transformations within your own behaviors toward a more beautiful and happier life. Trust me on that!
My look: Embellished tulle-trimmed stretch-jersey and open-knit maxi dress by PatBO, Tess small embossed two-tone leather shoulder bag by Chloé, bead-embellished flat sandals by Saint Laurent, «Caparacons de la France et de L’Inde» 90cm silk twill scarf (designed by Philippe Ledoux, first launched in 1959, re-editions in 1997 and 2008) by Hermès, leopard print lens sunglasses by Dolce & Gabbana, Ras Du Cou silver-tone, shell and beaded necklace, and gold-tone and shell earrings, both by Isabel Marant.

When it’s cold outside, your first thought isn’t about looking cool; it’s usually just about how to keep from freezing. However, style and practicability can go together very well. For its second season, the CHANEL Coco Neige F/W 2019 collection has continued to redefine an outdoor winter wardrobe with new techniques, volumes, textures and patterns. The snow shoes for example come with a tool to activate spikes on the bottom to grip the icy roads. Here you see me wearing a full look at Bagatelle Courchevel during «Lion’s Run» in the beginning of February 2020. Who would have thought that the world would be so different only a few weeks later…?!
My look: White and black printed canvas blouson, matching snow pants, pink and white striped cashmere and wool sweater, matching scarf, waist bag, and snow boots with spikes on the bottom, all by CHANEL (Coco Neige Collection F/W 2019), and leopard print lens sunglasses by Dolce & Gabbana.
