London calling.

London calling.

Another week, another outfit straight from London where I spent a few days 2 weeks ago for a special project with Jeff.
We stayed at our favorite Hotel, always, Sofitel London St James.
This outfit was shot by Morgane Lay, a lovely photographer I met in the city during my stay.
First time posing for her but definitely not the last.
Good spot to wear my Carolina Ritzler one piece and DeMellier SF bag for a 70’s London call….

Thank you Sofitel London St James

London Home is here.

London is always a good idea. And always too short. As you might know, I have a special love for a Hotel, located a few minutes away from Central Picadilly Circus and from many theaters, on Waterloo Place, the Sofitel London St James is my favorite spot for a getaway. The second you enter the place, you feel like home, with the very special welcome and home fragrance of Sofitel. I love the bedrooms (with the most famous and comfy bed. I even got one for ourselves at Home…)
The Balcon is a must for breakfast and you must raise a glass at the St James bar before heading out to dinner.
Make sure to send my love to Corinne when you check in. She always takes care perfectly of her guests.

Sweetest escape at the Number Sixteen I London

During my last trip to London, I wanted something different. This is why I chose another part of London, the cutest and french part of the city : South Kensington.
And in the heart of South Ken’ is a little hidden paradise called The Number Sixteen Hotel.
The Mid-Victorian Hotel has 41 bedrooms, all unique with its own deco and charm. The bathroom is lovely, full of Firmdale products that you can find here
I loved the RikRak beauty products and the adorable pencils and note book.
The most charming detail about the Number Sixteen is, definitely, the hidden and so dreamy garden that you face, while having your breakfast in the morning… As it was a few days before Halloween, the Hotel team was redecorating the garden with pumpkins which was perfect for the photos 🙂 Couldn’t sop myself to ask the concierge to take a picture of me !
It was truly, a delicate, charming and kind of vintage stay in London this time and I loved it. I’ll be back at the 16 Sumner Place.

24h in London just because you love Jo malone

What a short but unforgettable trip I made last week with Jo Malone.
Just because they wanted to celebrate the launch of their new offer – Just Because.
A few of us were invited for dinner at the Jo Malone TownHouse in London to meet the headquarters of the brand and love it even more.

Sofitel London Rituals.

Le week end dernier, je l’ai passé à Londres dans ma deuxième maison. Non, je n’ai pas encore gagné au vrai Monopoly mais je vous parle bien de mon Hotel préféré : Le Sofitel London St James.
Situé à 2 min à pieds de Picadilly Circus & Trafalgar Square, c’est le lieu parfait pour enchaîner les RDV et les ballades comme je l’ai fait.
L’hotel a un hall superbe, très accueillant. Le personnel bilingue est adorable. Le petit déjeuner au restaurant Le Balcon est somptueux et les chambres… on les connait bien chez Sofitel. Inutile de vous rappeler que ce sont mes lits préférés… au monde. Tout est réuni pour passer un excellent séjour à Londres, aussi bien pour le travail que pour le plaisir.
C’est vraiment ma maison anglaise oui.

Why London is a good idea.

London for the week end is always a good idea, especially when :

– you stay at your favorite hotel, the Sofitel London St James. I’ll make sure to tell you more about it on my next post!
– you spend the week end with your girlfriend Alix.
– you get to see all your london friends and you have the feeling you never left them.
– you get the wear actual summer clothes, which is almost a first in the UK for me!
– you get to try a very cool new spot, which is Cocotte Rotisserie, a healthy and delicious restaurant in Notting Hill.
– you spend some time with your daddy at the European championships of swimming…

That’s what I call a great weekend

Covent Garden.

Quoi de mieux que 3 jours à Londres franchement? Avec au programme un meeting hyper excitant avec Net-a-Porter pour le blog, des RDV artistiques, du cycling chez Psycle London, des bons restaurants (merci Capu) et un passage OBLIGE sur Oxford Street. J’ai quand même eu le temps de faire ma guide touristique et d’emmener Jeff à Covent Garden. Et sur le chemin, on a trouvé ce petit spot pour shooter.

What’s best than 3 days in London? On my To-do list, an exciting meeting with Net-a-Porter for the blog, artistic meetings, cycling class at Psycle London, great restaurants (thanks for the tips Capu) and an afternoon on Oxford Street. I even found some time to be a touristic guide for babe and took him to Covent Garden. While walking, we found this cool spot for the photos.

The World’s First Fabulous Fund Fair

L’enfant qui sommeille en moi est encore en train de sauter de joie après la soirée mis en œuvre par Natalia Vodianova et Karlie Kloss dans la tentative de collecter de fonds pour la Naked Heart Foundation, impliquant marques et célébrités à créer des stands excitant pour l’amusement de tous.
On a commencé notre soirée avec un bisous de Natalia dans le stand Guerlain, suivit par les Jeux olympiques Louboutin, pour ensuite essayé d’accrocher des canards avec Mariacarla Boscono dans l’espoir de gagner un sac Louis Vuitton.
Puis on a dégusté le “veggie hot dog” de Stella McCartney.Et après beaucoup de champagne, on a découvert Jax Coco, une eau de coco de lux dont Stella McCartney, Sienna Miller et Elton John raffole. Côté sucré Dior a fourni de délicieuses glaces au couleur de leur gloss acidulée, Moda Operandi de la barbe à papa, et Kloss distribuait ses fameux “Karlie’s Kookies” qui sont a tomber.

Dans l’ensemble un énorme succès avec 450 000 € rassemblé pour The Naked Heart Foundation

***

My inner child is still jumping around from all the excitement. Natalia Vodianova and Karlie Kloss put together one of the most exciting evening in the attempt of raising fund for the Naked Heart Foundation, involving brands and celebrities in creating exciting booth for the amusement of all.
We started our night with a kiss on the cheek from Natalia in the Guerlain Booth, followed by the Louboutin High Heel Olympics, then played hook-a-duck with Mariacarla Boscono in the attempt of winning a Louis Vuitton bag.Followed by an exquisite Stella McCartney veggie Hot Dog.
And after too many glass of champagne we discovered Jax Coco, the most fabulous coconut water, who counts Stella McCartney, Sienna Miller and Elton John in their fan club. On the sweet side Dior provided delicious ice cream, Moda Operandi Candy Floss, and Kloss herself was handing out Karlie’s Kookies that are to die for.Over all, a big success with €450 000 raised for The Naked Heart Foundation
