I am wearing Dolce & Gabbana bra, shorts, cardigan and shoes from AW 2012/2013 Collection.
I am heading to Florida for a shoot in couple of hours and I’m very excited about recharging my batteries with some sunshine. I am not gonna even start complaining about the NYC weather though (except what’s up with that wind today?), not only has it been very good this year, but my London mates would most likely shoot me as they’ve had two months of non-stop rain.
So where were we? Oh Florida, The Sunshine State.
Tonight I’ll be in Naples but as I usually spend a lot of time in Miami each year I thought I would share…you’re guessing right…some of my favorite eats in Miami Beach.
Here we go:
I opted for very comfy clothes today. I’ve got lots of appointments and castings and I also need to catch a flight tonight, so comfort was the way to go. I’m wearing Ray-Ban sunnies, Alexander McQueen pashmina scarf, Marc Jacobs blazer, Topshop Boutique silk top, J Brand jeans, Prada bag and my favorite’s, the most comfy shoes on the planet, Chanel pumps. Louboutins are hiding in my bag, of course, heels are needed for what I call ‘the elevator switch’. I am able to switch from flats to heels in an elevator in 5 seconds, oh yeah, I’m a PRO, I’ve had 11 years of practice!
Thinking about it, I wouldn’t want to see myself on those buildings security cameras, it must be hilarious. Add six thousand girls in town doing the same thing all day, I imagine security guards around NYC sitting down with a beer and some popcorn for some great theatre nights.
I finally got to take two and a half days off after a few crazy weeks in NYC (yeah!) and I decided to go on a little road trip adventure as it’s been ages since my last one, at least a million years it feels!
I’m a huge fan of road trips in general. You get to absorbe and enjoy all the sights properly as it takes a while to travel to and through places. You get to discover new and exciting locations that quite often do not even make it into the travel guide books, it lets you take one adventure after another with more deliberation and even getting lost can lead to a new adventure. When you have time it is so much more than traveling on a plane.
I especially like to take road trips in the US for it’s amazing and diverse scenery, not just because it’s so long since I’ve driven a stick or on the left and I actually can drive in the States! Route 66 is of course famous as one of the best scenic roads in the world, with good tunes to go with it, ‘Route 66’ radio plays perfect beats all the way. It has exciting cities and many more unmissable sights BUT… it is the tip of the iceberg. Just grab a car, do a little research and drive, either coast, up, down or across the middle, you will see things that amaze you.

The Standard hotel, NYC.
I am planning to redecorate my dining room soon… The Imperial No. 9 restaurant, Mondrian hotel, Soho, New York.
Forget the designers, the labels and the trends.
Forget the castings, the parties and the events.
When the occasion calls for it some things are just wardrobe essentials!
