Paris memories: Hotel Amour

Hotel Amour

Hotel Amour, Paris on a Sunday in May.

Have you ever been? If not, this is definitely one of the must-see places for your next Paris trip! It’s a very special place. In every sense.

Et voilà! The best-ever breakfast I had in Paris / France in general. They even have a terrace with a little garden (which TRUST ME can be very calming after a weekend packed with shopping, running around town and partying!). I remember that I loved the atmosphere at Hotel Amour. And the delicious croissants :-).

More Paris pics coming soon! I am so ready to go and search for new inspirations.

Have a wonderful Thursday everyone!

Summer mood

After weeks of terrible weather and rain, summer seems to be back in Paris!

The weather forecasts for the weekend look perfect and with Bagatelle re-opening after summer break and a great open air party tomorrow evening by the Eifel tower, things are indeed brightening up.

Enjoy the weekend and this little, oh-so romantic video by Zoe Cassavetas, featuring Louis Vuitton Spring10 pieces. Instant summer mood guaranteed! xx

Last week I modeled for a little project of my friend Luisa, who is studying at ESMOD in Paris.

She created the cutest outfit ever, with a perfectly fitting tweed blazer, cropped pants and a little oh-so Parisian hat. Louisa drew her inspirations from men’s wear pieces, in particular the style of our all time favourite beau Chuck Bass.

Petite Palermo

Olivia Palermo at Markus Lupfer Berlin_I

Olivia Palermo attending the Markus Lupfer presentation at Soho House Berlin today.

Olivia Palermo with a tan Hermès Birkin bagActually Olivia is real petite. I didn’t even recognize her at first sight when she walked into the lobby of Soho House. She was wearing this white draped dress which she tucked into a Markus Lupfer fringy skirt and belted it with a signature silk scarf. Oh and she was standing on her toes the entire time for the pictures:-). So cute!

Olivia Palermo at Markus Lupfer Berlin

It was a really hot day in Berlin and I wonder how she managed to look so fresh! I’d love to see a make-up tutorial of Olivia Palermo – her complexion was really flawless and evenly tanned.

UK based designer Markus Lupfer and Olivia Palermo posing for the photographers. By the way his collections are really great! I hope to see more of him over here.

Now off for an iced caffe latte!

…unfortunatelly, I did not quite manage to keep my ideal regatta dresscode, but I tried to keep it at least a bit fashionable by wearing this vintage marine scarf from Kiliwatch

Parisian Love

After visiting home for a few days, I am finally back to my beloved city!!

 

So, I just had to share with you this incredibly cute ad about going to Paris. It was first shown during this year’s superbowl and I have to say that Google did a great job in creating such a simple ad with such a strong message.

Dreaming of Spring…

I’ve waited so long for this, so lets hope that the mild temperatures stay around…

Yesterday, we finally went to les Plastiscines concert and it was FUN!!

After the show we had the chance to meet the girls and they are trop cool and really sweet. Plus, they have a great style!

Note to myself: I NEED NEED NEED a hat similar to the one of Louise on the picture above. All the cool kids in Paris wear one (but more about this later)!

I’m off to Germany for a few days, already miss Paris!

Last week the first retrospective ever on the whole work of YSL opened in Paris. The exhibit is presented by the Pierre Berge – Yves Saint Laurent Foundation and le Petit Palais in Paris. It comprises over 300 creations and is a true hommage to the master of fashion. A MUST SEE for all fashionistas!

So, if you come to Paris before the end of August make sure you don’t miss it! As for me, its already on my agenda for next week!

Have a great weekend everyone,

love from Paris, Nati

at Chloe: Clemence Poesy

Today, at the Chloe show, I tried to snap some pics of lovely Clemence Poesy

She was literally running away from the crowd of photographers, so that’s the best I could get:

p.s: Don’t miss out on the Louis Vuitton lifestream today!! Watch it at 2.30 pm CET, either on the facebook fanpage or on the i-phone.

at Dior: fooling around

Apart from stalking fashion people at the Dior show, I also had lots of fun fooling around in sunny Jardin des Tuileries. This was mostly due to the totaly lovely baloon dog, which the Grazia team distributed in front of the show…
