PARIS COUTURE WEEK OUTFIT 2

PARIS COUTURE WEEK OUTFIT 2

Can Paris be more picture perfect? From residential homes to the main landmarks, the entire city is like a post card. I’ve been taking photos for the blog for a couple of years now, and if there is one thing that never fails is a good backdrop. There is no arguing that the Arc de Triomphe is both Instagrammable and surreal at the same time. Perfectly located at the edge to the Champs Eyssees, its size is both imposing and mesmerizing. Even though I have grown used to seeing it daily since our hotel was on the same street, it…

FARHAD RE SHOW

FARHAD RE SHOW

The first Paris Couture Week show I attended was Farhad Re and I knew I was in for a treat when I received the invitation in the mail, which was printed on a piece of fabric: a teal folded organza. The show took place in the stunning Embassy of Italy in France, which from the inside, looked a little bit like a castle. Gold ornate walls, gold chairs with red cushions, stunning mirrors all around – I truly felt like a princess. I sat front row and thus were able to enjoy the full splendour of this romantic collection. The…

PARIS COUTURE WEEK OUTFIT 1

Paris, je t’aime. There are a handful of cities in the world that I would visit over and over again and Paris is at the top of the list! I’ve been to Paris 5 times now and every time I go, I fall in love with this city more and more. I cannot pinpoint one single reason why I love this city so much, it’s a combination of everything: the effortlessly chic fashion & the amazing shopping, the food (cheese, fois gras & bread are my weaknesses), the stunning architecture at every single corner, the noise of the city…I just…

WHAT TO WEAR TO AN INTERVIEW

WHAT TO WEAR TO AN INTERVIEW

First impressions are everything! We can fool ourselves all we want that looks don’t matter and we’re not judgmental, but it’s part of our DNA & it’s human nature – pure and simple. According to Psychology Today: “In fact, first impressions snap into place in just seven seconds […] We tend to get attached to our initial impressions of people and find it difficult to change our opinion of them. As a result, it’s important to be aware of how we come across to others during a first meeting” As such, first impressions can make or break your interview, no…
