Outfits │ Two ways to Style your White Summer Broderie Dress
Jun 16, 2019
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday!
I'm very excited to share my outfit post this week because it is about a piece I absolutely ADORE: a white broderie dress for summer!! White cotton or linen dresses are the perfect choice for your summer event, outdoor party, BBQ party, beach party, a simple picnic with your significant other, any family reunion, you name it! (Except a wedding, please, don't wear a white dress as a guest to a wedding, that's usually the colour reserved to the bride).
I know for moms in general white is not the most practical option, but I've wanted a white summer dress for so long, I just had to give in! Finding the right one wasn't an easy task. I ordered 7 different dresses (was that 8?) from different shops until I found the one I wanted to keep. If you follow my Instagram Stories, you've seen and probably even voted for the dress I've finally kept, now I'm in love with it!! Were you wondering "how are you going to wear a white dress??", well, white goes practically with everything, you don't really need a tan to pull it off you just need the right white for you. Today, I am going to show you two of the many ways I style my white dress for different occasions and give you a few tips about finding the right dress for you!
Outfit of the day │ Mom wears a Paperbag skirt for Summer Outdoors
Jun 2, 2019
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday!
It's time for a new "Fashion" post. In summer we like going out more, especially with the children, and that involves some playing and other activities that require outfits that allow me to be comfortable and that are easy to wash (small fingers dirty with chocolate ice cream, mud, and other unidentified substances will definitely be all over the place, LOL). But this doesn't mean you have to abandon every bit of style!! As a mom of young children, you have many options of simple, yet cute, pieces that will allow you to enjoy your day with the kids and look put together at the same time. Today I show you how I style a trendy piece like the Paperbag skirt in a super comfortable outfit to spend a hot summer afternoon outdoors with the family!!
Outfit of the day │ Midi Pleated skirt for Spring/Summer
May 19, 2019
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday!
In today's "outfit" post, I'd like to talk about another trend that started last year and stays strong this year too: Pleated skirts! I hesitated to adopt this trend because pleated skirts are not the most flattering on my body shape. Until I saw this printed skirt in shades of blue and fell for it, especially for its flowy fabric. I thought it would be fresh and comfortable for the warm months ahead all while being quite chic, so I finally adopted it! Here is how I style my spring Pleated Skirt.
Outfit of the day │ Total black for a dinner date
May 12, 2019
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday! Happy Mother's day!
I hope all moms out there had a wonderful mother's day, I certainly did! You can check my Instagram stories for a few snaps of this lovely family Sunday ;)
Today, I'd like to share with you an outfit idea that may seem very banal, but it is waaaaay out of my comfort zone: a total black outfit. Well, of course, it is not completely black because my accessories are grey! But for a dinner date with the hubby in Rome, I thought it would look quite elegant to dress all in black, without losing my comfy side of course ;) Let's take a closer look to it!
Outfit of the day │ Paperbag pants Trend for Spring/Summer 2019
May 5, 2019
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday!
In today's "outfit" edition, I'd like to talk about a trend that started last Fall and stays strong this year! Paperbag pants! I've been repeating that I'm not one to follow trends blindly, but this is a trend that I adopted because it is so "me". Besides, this trend has been going strong for three seasons now, we can safely say it is here to stay, right? Let's take a look to my way to style my spring paperbag pants!
Outfit of the day │ Strolling through Rome in Colored jeans and Polkadots
Apr 28, 2019
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday!
Today's fashion Post is focused on comfort and practicality (well actually most of my outfits are, lol). Far behind are the days when I used to sport cute kitten heels and fancy outfits for visiting a city! Yes, I've done it in my 20's, but now visiting with two kids and stying all day out, a comfortable (and durable) outfit is a must. This doesn't mean your clothes need to be boring or not feminine!!
Check out my ideas to make your visiting day comfortable and chic ;)

Apr 7, 2019
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday!
Here I am, with a new "Fashion" post to share with you! Today I'd like to chat with you about another piece that I consider a wardrobe staple: The Biker Leather Jacket. I think it is a basic piece that never goes out of style and gives many styling possibilities, without mentioning that it is very practical during mid-season weather.
Keep reading to find out how I adapt the Biker leather Jacket to my feminine style with a romantic touch.
Wardrobe staples│ Trench Coat, your ally this Spring
Mar 24, 2019
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday!
We are having such beautiful sunny weather! But during the Spring the weather is very unstable here in Switzerland. Rain can happen any minute, mornings are cold and the temperatures rise fast during the day. The best way to brave all those weather changes is having some versatile clothing in your wardrobe and layering them!!
When you have a long day ahead, the Trench Coat is a great ally! It is formal enough for a smart working outfit, but also suitable for a date, or a more casual look, even with jeans. It is one of those clothing staples so versatile during Spring. Today I share with you how I style my Trench coat for a date night after work. I hope you like it!
Outfit of the day │ Romantic Blouse and Cosy Shawl for the Weekend
Mar 3, 2019
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday!
Finally, I came around to put together another outfit post for you. It's been a challenge for sure! We actually don't have time to set aside for doing proper "photo shootings"(we, meaning hubby "photographer" and me). But, somehow my fresh optimism thought we could just slip a couple of snaps into our normal life. You know, it is actually much harder than I would have imagined!
We will give it a try in a few days and see if we can manage to bring all our stuff with us. Yes, last time, we went out to take pics, only to find the camera memory card was missing and the battery was dying, LOL. Yeah, we need some fine tuning in the "planning section", haha.
Today I have a weekend casual comfy outfit, perfect for the strange transition weather we are having now. The winter is about to end, it's sunny, but still chilly at times for spring outfits. I hope you'll like it :)
Outfit of the day │ Oversized Knitted Scarf
Feb 17, 2019
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday!
I've been wanting to include some outfits post in my blog for a while, and I finally had the occasion to do so. Last weekend, my hubby and I were invited to the opening of the first boutique of Wildhorn Fine Cosmetics in Crans Montana. My hubby agreed to play the "photographer" role in my fashion shooting! It was fun, I think he did really well! What do you think of his pictures?
We are having such glorious weather these days. The sky has been bright blue and the days warmer since last Monday. But the truth is, winter is not completely over, we are only half way through February and while it can get over 10°C in the afternoons, the mornings can be quite chilly near 0°C. That is why I love styling my outfits with Oversized scarves like the one I'm wearing here! There are a few advantages about getting one of these, want to see?
Nail Art │ 1980's Fall Fashion Trend Inspired Manicure
Sep 9, 2018
Hello, sweeties! I hope you had a great weekend!
I've been feeling a little under the weather these past days, I caught a flu (the first of the season) but I didn't want to miss this appointment for the "Nail Crazies Unite" nail art Challenge because this week's theme is Fall Fashion Inspired nails. As we've seen in the catwalks, the upcoming season is very rich combining different trends but I'd say the most prominent ones are the heavy layering of different pieces and the strong reminiscence of the 1980's fashion.
I'm a child of the 1980' and I hated the fashion of those days with a passion, hahaha. I wasn't very happy in the 90's either so following these reminiscent trends is not really my cup of tea. However, for the nail art challenge purpose, I thought it could be fun to create a manicure combining the excess of colours and patterns that marked that decade. I hope you like it!
Swiss Made│ My time pieces collection
Mar 29, 2017
Watches are quite important for me, they are both a fashion accessory and a little piece of engineering, which is exactly what makes them so fascinating to my eye. I own a very eclectic ensemble of time pieces, a small watches collection I have amassed through my life, where each piece has a special meaning. Would you like to see it?

Oct 2, 2016
Hello sweeties! I hope you are having a great weekend, I'm having a great one, already counting the hours for our next vacation, which are starting on Tuesday! yay!!
talking of vacation... it was about time that I finished showing you what I shopped for during my summer vacation in Italy!

But this post will not be totally irrelevant, because most of the items I got are perfect for this period, transitioning from Summer to Fall. By this gorgeous sunny weather we are having in Switzerland! Starting by the beautiful Missoni Sunglasses ♥ ♥ ♥
Shall we look at the rest of the things I got?

Jun 16, 2016
(Scroll down for English)
Assister à un bal, un gala ou une soirée ou événement important, c’est quelque chose que je fais rarement mais quand j’ai l’occasion je prends un plaisir fou à choisir ma tenue. Le glamour, l'élégance d'une tenue de soirée, j’adore cela, mais côté porte-monnaie ce n'est pas toujours donné. A ce propos, je voulais partager avec vous ma récente découverte de la boutique Miaparis, où l'on peut trouver une robe de soirée pas cher parmi une séléction des robes les unes plus magnifiques que les autres!
Attending a bal, a gala or a cocktail party happens very rarely to me. But whenever I have the chance I take a blast choosing my outfit. I love glamourous and elegant cocktail dresses, but my wallet does not always agree. That is why today I want to share with you my recent discovery of Miaparis, an online store where you can find the dress of your dreams at a very reasonable price!
Jewelry │ Olive branch adjustable ring
Jun 9, 2016
I love jewellery, and have a few expensive pieces... that I NEVER wear!! I'm always afraid to lose them or ruin them (I have two small children always hanging from some part of my body). So I end up opting for affordable stuff. Yes, aaaaall the way! I can wear it daily without fear of bumping it, damaging it (yes, I'm also clumsy...) or losing it, because I know I can always replace it. You can hardly find jewelry that is more affordable than at Born Pretty Store, and with such cute designs as the Olive branch adjustable ring like the one I got!
Statement Necklace from Happiness Boutique
May 24, 2016
I don't know about you, but spring for me is always such a socially busy time of the year. Weddings, festivals, baptisms, communions and of course graduations parties! I'm not a fashionista, but I certainly want to look my best at every occasion. Accessorizing and wearing jewellery have become indispensable to me to achieve a polished look. So when Happiness Boutique offer me to send me a statement necklace of my choice for review, I accepted without thinking twice!
