As part of the 10th Zurich Film Festival (ZFF), Swiss luxury watch manufacturer IWC Schaffhausen invited me for the opening of the “Timeless Portofino” exhibition.
CEO Georges Kern was joined by Hollywood actress Cate Blanchett and renowned photographer Peter Lindbergh to present the amazing result of a photo shoot which involved a host of stars, such as Emily Blunt, Zhou Xun, Ewan McGregor, Christoph Waltz among others and was organized by IWC especially for the launch of its new Portofino Midsize collection. Before the exhibition set off around the world, IWC celebrated the world premiere with around 250 guests and invited them to a glamorous gala dinner (see yesterday’s post here). Enjoy my outfit post and the photos that I took from above upon the arrival of the famous guests as I was already inside the exhibition.
My look: Embroidered wrap-over mini-dress by Balmain, metallic and matte-leather pumps 
and Sac De Jour Nano leather shoulder bag
, both by Saint Laurent, sunglasses by Tom Ford, statement necklace by Dior, «Mitza» ring by Dior Haute Joaillerie and Portofino midsize watch with diamonds by IWC Schaffhausen.

Is it Friday yet? A question that seems to come up to my mind somehow too frequently, time just flies. I wore this look to the intimate lunch with Karolina Kurkova I co-hosted with IWC Schaffhausen last September and it has been one of my favorites during the last months. I hope that you will like it as much as I do!
My look: Leather biker jacket, ruffled leopard-print silk-georgette mini dress, Janis embellished suede ankle boots and Monogramme embellished shopper tote, all by Saint Laurent, diamond ring and diamond bracelet, both by Vainard Fine Jewellery and Portofino Midsize Automatic watch with diamonds and grey alligator bracelet by IWC Schaffhausen.

Sometimes when you are stressed and you only got five minutes to dress, the result turns out to be one of your favorite looks. This happened to me last week when I put together those pieces in a hurry and really liked the style. Isn’t the color of this long powder blue coat just divine?!
My look: Powder blue paneled wool-blend coat by Tibi, cropped hoodie with zipper and sequined Playboy bunny
by Marc Jacobs, grey wool mini dress with embroideries by Blumarine, Monogramme embellished shopper tote, both by Saint Laurent, boots by Gucci, chain and padlock necklace by Chanel, Portofino Midsize Automatic watch with diamonds by IWC, diamond ring by Vainard Fine Jewellery and Pure Matt 100 denier tights by Falke.
