I have been back in Switzerland for a while now but it is like I keep falling in love with my hometown. I had become almost insensitive to its beauty and now, after having been away for a while, I feel so lucky to live there. It is actually a very nice town to live in.
Sometimes in life we need to step back to be able to see the whole picture and start afresh. It is with this state of mind that I am starting off 2017.
One colour, different textures. Here is what I really love about minimalism: it seems so plain but is so sophisticated at the same time. One tip for you guys. When you are wearing a long skirt + high boots, you will pick a pair of boots with a heel, so the outfit won’t make you look short.
Yay or nay for all-black looks? 🙂
PS: You may have noticed that we changed the website completely. What do you think? 🙂
Ca fait déjà un bout de temps que je suis revenue en Suisse, mais ça fait tout drôle parce que j’ai l’impression de retomber amoureuse de ma ville encore et encore. J’étais devenue presque totalement insensible à son charme, et maintenant, après avoir vécu à l’étranger, je me sens si chanceuse de vivre ici. C’est en fait une ville très chouette.
Des fois, on doit prendre du recul dans la vie pour pouvoir avoir une vue d’ensemble et redémarrer du bon pied. C’est dans cet état d’esprit que je débute 2017.
Voici un look minimal que j’ai beaucoup aimé préparer. On ne le dira jamais assez: le noir est LA couleur classe et intemporelle.
Une couleur, différentes textures. Voilà pourquoi j’adore le minimalisme: cela semble si simple mais c’est en fait tellement sophistiqué en même temps.
Un petit conseil: si vous décidez de combiner une jupe longue + des bottes hautes, il est préférable de choisir une paire de bottes à talon, pour que votre silhouette ne paraisse pas “tassée”.Alors, que pensez-vous des tenues monochromes/achromes? 🙂
PS: Vous aurez certainement remarqué que nous avons complètement refait le site. Votre avis? 🙂

Thank you Gil!
Have a great week!
I know what you mean. Sometimes we take things for granted or fail to appreciate them because they become part of the decor, we don’t really see them anymore. After being away for a while I always feel like i find new things to appreciate at home.
You look great, Your skirt is really pretty. I like the all black look.
Also like the new design.
Have a lovely Sunday dear 🙂
