Do you know La Plonche? It is one of my favorite parts of Saint Tropez, hidden away from the masses at the port. Sitting close into the buildings of the old town, the small beach is fronting the oldest part of the French village and offers stunning sea views. You need to walk round a small coastal path to reach it. It is a legendary, fairytale place. Brigitte Bardot was a regular at the iconic Hôtel de la Ponche around the corner.
I absolutely love to wear Zimmermann dresses in Saint Tropez. It is the perfect brand for the Riviera.
My look: Estelle belted paisley-print linen and ramie midi dress
by Zimmermann, yellow and orange Deauville beach tote by CHANEL, Naomi buckled leather mules by The Attico, yellow beaded earrings by Oscar de la Renta, and Clash de Cartier ring in 18K rose gold with amazonite by Cartier.

The new month of April is here! This should mean warm weather, beautiful flowers and Easter! However, everything you love about April is not here yet. I was in Zurich for a quick stopover to repack my suitcases as I am off to Boston and it is snowing like crazy. I cannot stand it. Therefore I am posting a vibrant summery look that I cannot wait to wear soon again. Feathers are trending this summer, so get ready to adorn yourself with borrowed plumes.
My look: Ostrich feather embellished mini dress in blue, and ostrich feather pouch, both by The Attico, royal blue silk satin bow tie pumps by Aquazzura, crystal-embellished cuff and vintage blue sapphire earrings by CHANEL, and Tank Française 25.05mm medium 18-karat gold and stainless steel watch by Cartier.

My house is still a big construction site, therefore I moved a few days to Baur au Lac to enjoy some dust-free time. However, it is coming along and I cannot wait to see the final result.

A trend borrowed from Lady Di’s iconic off-duty style, pants tucked into knee-high boots, has already made the leap from the runway to the streets, and is sported today also on my legs. It gives your outfit such a cool and relaxed take on luxury. It is my styling trick if the pants are too long…
My look: Vichy embellished houndstooth tweed bomber jacket, and matching Vichy embellished houndstooth tweed tapered pants, both by Alessandra Rich, intarsia wool-blend turtleneck sweater by Dolce & Gabbana, grosgrain-trimmed wool-blend felt cap and grooved cabochon clip earrings, both by Saint Laurent, camellia brooch by CHANEL, black suede knee boots by The Attico, and Cassette chain-embellished padded intrecciato suede shoulder bag in dark brown by Bottega Veneta.

In January I told you about this must-have sweater for fall the first time (click here for the previous post). Rosie Assoulin‘s «Thousand In One Ways» sweater is named for its seemingly endless styling options – the sleeves can be shrugged off your shoulders, knotted neatly around your waist or detached completely, which turns it into a cropped camisole. It’s been cable-knitted in Italy from a luxuriously soft blend of wool and cotton and has a relaxed fit.
To shop click on the highlighted product description.
My look: Thousand in One Ways convertible cropped cable-knit wool and cotton-blend sweater by Rosie Assoulin, Albi ribbed-knit stirrup leggings by Jacquemus, Fiona sandals by The Attico, Diana leather-trimmed printed suede tote by Gabriela Hearst, GG jacquard pastel shawl by Gucci, and cat eye frame glasses a tortoiseshell effect by Tom Ford.

With all the safety precautions I am honestly so not in the mood for traveling somewhere. And to be honest, there is no need to with these beautiful sunny temperatures in Switzerland at the moment. I love my pool and garden so much. It is the best place to chill, relax and work. Dressing up at home is also fun … in this sense, I hope you are enjoying your Sunday!
My look: Silk coat with feathers by Prada, Super Eight embroidered lace-trimmed bandeau bikini by Zimmermann, Paris white leather sandals by The Attico, pearl necklace by CHANEL, crystal-embellished cat-eye sunglasses by Celine, and embroidered book clutch by Olympia Le-Tan for Cabana x Eden Being.

I love CHANEL. Since I was a teenager, I have been crazy for the French Maison with its extremely eye-caring and sophisticated logo. CHANEL, one of the most luxurious and influential fashion brands, is with no doubt timeless. For my 18th birthday I got a CHANEL ensemble that I still wear and adore. It was Karl Lagerfeld expanding on the prestige and history of Coco’s achievements that made women around the globe crave for a piece of CHANEL. Now, with Virginie Viard at the helmet, the beautiful story continues… here you see me wearing some of my favorite Cruise 2020 pieces.
My look: Tweed jacket in lilac, light blue cotton top with bow, embellished leggings, brooch, multicolored shopper, classic violet flap bag, chain belt, all by CHANEL (Cruise 2020), Venus satin pumps, both by The Attico and Croco Tail sunglasses by Fendi, bracelets and heart necklace with diamond pavé in yellow gold by Cartier, Rose Céleste necklace in 18k yellow and white gold, diamond, onyx and mother-of-pearl, and Astro Dior aquarius necklace, both by Dior Fine Jewellery.

OMG! Lilac – the shade, that interestingly enough, made a resurgence in winter, has been seen everywhere this season. If you don’t want to go for the head-to-toe look, combine the pastel hue with khaki for the ultimate sophistication. Put on a turban and you are ready to turn heads…
My look: Sequin-embellished mohair-blend cardigan by Alessandra Rich, leopard-print stretch-cady turban by Dolce & Gabbana, leather tapered pants, and Venus satin pumps, both by The Attico, Multi Pochette Accessories in monogram canvas by Louis Vuitton, sunglasses by Fendi, Love bracelets, and Tortue 18-karat rose gold, alligator and diamond watch, both by Cartier, Diorette ring and earrings, both by Dior Haute Joaillerie.
