“Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better”. Albert Einstein
The Alps boast some of the most magnificent natural scenery in Europe.
For nature lovers like myself, the French Alps is the ultimate destination in France. We tend to associate the Alps mainly with winter sports however, contrary to common perceptions, the Alps is also the perfect summer holiday spot!
“Fashion you can buy, but style you possess. The key to style is learning who you are, which takes years. There’s no how-to road map to style. It’s about self expression and, above all, attitude”. Iris Apfel
As we start mourning the last days of summer now is the time to get ahead and start investing in some key pieces that will work hard in your A/W wardrobe.
All hail the midi, the most sophisticated dress trend for A/W19. Back for another season, the midi dress is top of my wish-list when it comes to shopping.
“Accessories are what makes or marks a woman”. Coco Chanel
Brooches … forgotten for decades. There’s a common misconception that a brooch is an accessory worn by someone 60+, the Queen of England, aged Park Avenue Socialites, you get the picture.
It’s unfortunate that brooches have gotten such a stodgy reputation, considering they’re one of the most versatile accessories out there. The styling possibilities for brooches are much wider as oppose to most other jewellery that can be worn only the way it’s intended
“The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step”. Lao Tzu
Surrounded by the glistening Aegean Sea and the resting place of one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, Rhodes boasts a rich culinary heritage. A trip to Greece equals an exciting journey through Greek gastronomy.
“The dress must follow the body of a woman, not the body following the shape of the dress.” Hubert de Givenchy
Whether you like it or not, the way you look plays a role in your success in the modern workplace.
It only takes a few seconds for someone to make an impression of you and a handful of others to change it.
A midi length dress is always a great work appropriate option for when the heat is just too warm to bear. It is such a classic cut that looks feminine and put together.
“Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened”. Ludwig Jacobowski
One of the (many) things I struggled with when I first started my fashion and lifestyle diary was getting the right background for my photos.
How about those perfect blogger photos with a laptop and glossy magazines laid out perfectly on the white table? Where to get that immaculate aesthetic white background that just don’t exist in my house?
It took me a while to understand a few tricks in the blogger’s world but Guys do not underestimate the power of props. They are fantastic if you want to enhance your photos.
“Elegance is elimination.” Cristóbal Balenciaga
Some fashion trends come and go, very few have staying power. The two trends I don’t seem to have enough of, jumpsuit and leo print have evolved and adapted over the years and are now are iconic pieces of clothing. For fashionistas like myself who like versatility and outfits that last longer than one season a leo jumpsuit is a must. They are cool, chic and yet timeless.
“Elegance is not standing out, but being remembered”. Giorgio Armani
Dressing during soaring summer temperatures can be quite a challenge, with very few pieces of clothing seemingly able to balance being both fashionable and comfortable.
As the summer has progressed, a number of items have surged in popularity, including pearl hair clips, mesh body suits, statement earrings and my favourite playsuits.
