My Look: 80s

Last week’s gala episode of MY STYLE ROCKS was all about the 1980s. I love this era as it was all about bold, loud, and unapologetic fashion! Think big everything—from oversized shoulder pads to voluminous hair. Neon colors, metallics, and animal prints dominated wardrobes, while leg warmers and spandex became gym-to-street staples. Preppy looks with popped collars and designer logos contrasted with edgy punk styles, featuring ripped jeans and studded leather. Accessories were just as over-the-top, with chunky jewelry, gloves, and fanny packs stealing the spotlight. Whether inspired by Madonna, Michael Jackson, Dynasty or Wall Street’s power suits, the 80s were a decade where more was definitely more!

My look: Double-breasted wool-blend blazer with oversized shouldersicon, and matching green mini skirt, both by Balenciaga, black tulle gloves with GG motificon by Gucci, Mitza ring by Dior Fine Jewellery, wide chain bracelet by CHANELivory oyster enamel mother of pearl brooch by Burberry, hoop-drop clip earringsiconclassic Paris D’Orsay pumps with bow, metallic-trimmed leather clutchblack chiffon bow choker necklace, and wide-brimmed rabbit and cotton-blend felt fedora, all by Saint Laurent.

The Vanity Bag

There is no doubt that the vanity bag – preferably in burgundy – is the F/W 2024 staple in the wardrobes of those in the know. While the rich burgundy hue appears every fall and winter to replace summer’s brights and pastels, the shade has gotten new life.

Rising designer prices had been prompting Gen Z to repurpose vanity bags as clutches. I mean for a modest cost, you can buy beauty products and receive a complimentary designer vanity bag, enjoying the same luxury experience. High end designer brands transform these shapes now into the new must-have handbags, needless to say for a higher amount, as demonstrated by iconic designs such as the Loro Piana Pouch Bag and Bottega Veneta’s latest Bang Bang style.

This is how a trend is born, these bags perfectly combine style and utility. Below are the best ones available at the moment.

My Look: Color Blocking

One episode of My Style Rocks Germany was about «color blocking,» when two or more colors are combined or stacked in blocks in mostly bright colour. I pushed the accelerator on the provocation with this bold color palette of orange, yellow and blue, featuring new pieces and vintage ones from my closet. Those vibrant hues combined stimulate energy and happiness.

My look: Orange silk jacket, blue silk shirt, and matching bag with leather tassels, all by Gucci (S/S 2011 Collection), yellow pants by Moschinohoop-drop clip earringsicon by Saint Laurent, Aevitas Pointy satin platform pumps by Versace, and silk hair band by Prada (Resort 2019).

The IT-Sunglasses of Summer 2024

Celine is a brand synonymous with minimalist luxury. Under the creative direction of Hedi Slimane, the brand has embraced a refined aesthetic that resonates with fashion-forward individuals, making the Triomphe sunglasses a must-have item. Trending among all generations, many celebrities and influencers have been spotted wearing the IT-sunglasses of summer 2024, which has significantly boosted their popularity.

Featuring the iconic Celine Triomphe logo – a design inspired by the historic Arc de Triomphe in Paris – they come with an elegant crossbody bag in brown leather for elegant storage.

My Look: Street Parade 2024

Last weekend, nearly a million techno music fans came to Zurich for the 31st Street Parade. The world’s largest techno party always takes place on the second Saturday in August. More than 200 DJs took part in the festivities, letting the electronic and techno music fans dance around Zurich’s lake basin. In the evening, the event continues in the city’s clubs. The sun was shining and I enjoyed a fun time at the Baur au Lac hotel, my favorite place to be during the festivities. It is a great way to have a front row seat at the iconic music parade while enjoying the serenity and space of the hotel’s beautiful park.

The Most Expensive Happy Meal

Another designer who steps into the fast food trend this season is Saint Laurent with its latest bag that will capture the attention of It girls everywhere. As the name suggests, Saint Laurent’s Take-Away bag finds inspiration in takeaway containers. Mimicking the well-known box that comes bearing your favourite cuisine, this embossed piece promises to add some fun to your accessory rotation, while the logo hardware reinforces that it is the most expensive happy meal daily.


It’s a little more pricey than your average cheeseburger and french fries combo meal. The style comes in camel with gold hardware and black with silver hardware, engraved with the diamond-shaped YSL monogram.⁠

The Embossed Take-Away Box Bag by Saint Laurent is available here.

However, this style has been sported before by CHANEL (Paris – Shanghai Pre-fall 2010) and Moschino (F/W 2014). As I always say, keep your pieces, there will always be a time again!icon
