This week, I flew to Paris for a great evening with Lancôme to celebrate their 80th anniversary and to interview Viktor & Rolf who were proud of the festivities for Flowerbomb, their iconic fragrance, that turned 10 this year.
I met the designer duo at the beautiful Peninsula Hotel Paris, that had opened its doors last year. The interview was absolutely amazing and I was so happy when I left to the airport that I sat down at the piano in the lobby. Playing my favorite instrument is something that gives me lots of relaxation and energy at once.
My look: Silk embellished top and black silk skirt, both by Viktor & Rolf (from a previous season), cutout leather platform pumps by Saint Laurent, Bamboo leather tote 
by Gucci, necklace and cuff, both by Chanel, ring by Vainard Fine Jewellery and Lady Excalibur watch by Roger Dubuis.
My piano dream life feels more like a fortissimo life but I adore my job and this gets me going! Next stop NYC and Florence, stay tuned for more…

If there is one thing I hate, it is packing. And for Fashion Week, it is even worse. But with my new diamanté-embellished silk top 
by Moschino Cheap and Chic the message is pretty clear “only front row” please!
Tomorrow, I will be leaving for Paris. In the evening, I am invited to a real fashion shower: Anna dello Russo’s paradise ball to celebrate her collaboration with H&M that will be launching on October 4, 2012. Totally excited!
Stay tuned for many photos to be posted!

Natalie Massenet, founder of Net-à-porter, looked so über-stylish at London’s V&A museum for the evening with Christian Louboutin that I had to share it with you.
Take inspiration from her amazing look with a printed top, statement heels and a standout skirt for outstanding evening chic.
Her look: Feather and sequin-embellished silk skirt by Matthew Williamson, printed silk-satin top by Theyskens’ Theory and Wales python lace-up pumps by Christian Louboutin.
