Favorite item : Givenchy Pandora bag
Amazing leather. Light as feather. No "G" logo all over the bag handles. Enough said.
Favorite book : Allure by Diana Vreeland and Christopher Hemphill
Beautiful book, really inspiring photos, carefully curated by one of the most talented woman of the 20th century.
Favorite art movement: Orientalist art
Winter months always make me think of warmer ones...
Royal Museum of Fine Arts, Brussels
Until January 9th, then in Munich.
Favorite Accessory: Gavilane jewelry
Gavilane, based in the Marais, might well be the only designer who still creates all his pieces in Paris.
He used to work for Christian Lacroix, but he's also a musician.
His jewelry is all made of Swarovski crystals, and it's truly amazing.
Favorite Place: Hotel de Paris, Monte Carlo
*sight*
The Hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo is the kind of places where you feel just right. Once you're inside, it feels like time has stopped in the 1930s, everyone is polite and elegantly dressed (from fur coats to Hermes' Birkin) for pre dinner drinks.
Monte Carlo is a place out of time, where everyone is safe & secure, there's almost no criminality, and every sidewalk is immaculate.
