As promised, here is my outfit that I wore to the annabelle Prix de Beauté last week in Zurich. I couldn’t wait to take out some of my new Miu Miu S/S 2013 runway pieces:
Flared dress with puckered trim and wide belt by Yves Saint Laurent (F/W 2012), pearl necklace by Miu Miu, pumps in pale pink cracked leather and
caramel and raspberry handmade Shibori dip-dyed fur stole, both from the Miu Miu S/S 2013 runway and Kelly So Black bag by Hermès.

Last Wednesday, the 16th annabelle Prix de Beauté ceremony was held at the Dolder Grand Hotel in Zurich and I felt very honored to be in the jury like last year. Above you can see annabelle’s editor-in-chief Lisa Feldmann with me at the event.
For those of you who are not familiar with this trophy, the “Anna” is like the “Swiss Beauty Oscar”. Many products in different categories are tested among the jury members and the winner is analyzed with the help of an elaborate questionary.

Last week, I went to the presentation of the 15th annabelle Prix de Beauté which was held at the Dolder Grand in Zurich. The presentation could be best described as the “Swiss Beauty Oscars”. I felt very honoured because I was asked to be in the jury.

The highly coveted “Anna” trophy.

My task? Test 100 beauty products in the category facial care. No problem at all!
For my Swiss based readers: All the winners of the different categories will be published in the annabelle 04-2012 magazine which will be available starting February 22, 2012. From March 2-17, 2012 all the awarded products will be displayed at Manor in Zurich.
Some of the winners were already featured on Sandra’s Closet such as the Diorskin Forever Foundation or the Idealist Even Skintone Illuminator by Estée Lauder.
Below you can see what I wore to the event. I hope that you will like it.
LoL, Sandra
