L'Île Maurice

July 5, 2017

La semaine dernière, j'ai eu la chance de m'envoler vers l'île Maurice, invitée par Beachcombers Hotels & Resorts, pour découvrir leur tout nouveau concept de spa " The Art of Wellness".

En ligne avec une prise de conscience globale et un besoin de redonner du sens à notre manière de vivre, The Art of Wellness propose une approche holistique avec des massages ancestraux, des programmes personnalisés, et une gamme de produits 100 % naturels puisée au cœur du terroir Mauricien.

Les artisans thérapeutes offrent un véritable bilan bien-être à leurs clients ainsi que des programmes personnalisés répondant aux besoins de chacun. Les programmes sur mesure se composent de massages et peuvent aller plus loin grâce à la pratique d’Arts Affinitaires (SantaYoga, Qi-gong et autres techniques de mieux-être ancestrales) ou encore de conseils en hygiène de vie.

L'île Maurice offre un tableau idyllique, propice à la détente et au bien être. Au programme : Plages de sable blanc bordées de cocotiers, baignade dans les eaux calmes du lagon, escapade en bateau,...

Ayant plutôt l'habitude des voyages rimant avec aventure, sac à dos et découverte, j'ai tendance à rentrer encore plus fatiguée qu'au départ. J'ai apprécié pour une fois ces vacances au calme dont je suis rentrée revitalisé. L'île Maurice est une destination parfaite pour ceux qui recherchent repos et depaysement. Le maigre décalage horaire et le vol direct Paris-Maurice en font une destination idéale pour partir en famille.

Thanks to Beachcomber Resorts & Hotels and Corsair for making this trip possible.

Bryr Clogs

May 17, 2017

Have you heard of Bryr ? Bryr is a clog brand founded by Isobel Schofield and based in San Francisco. Bryr believe in slow fashion and in making things that last. Each pair of Bryr clogs are made-to-order in their workshop in San Francisco using US leather and eco processes.

I recently acquire a second pair of Bryr, the Hannah spanish toes in blush nubuck and Isobel is so kind she sent me pictures of the making of my clogs taken by her friend Annie Martin. Hope you'll enjoy this little peak into Bryr Studio and if you wish to learn more about Bryr you can head over to their website to watch the video of behind the scenes made by Vanessa Hellmann.

Enjoy worldwide free shipping on Bryr until the end of May with the code "WorldShipFreeYay!#!"

Garden party

May 6, 2017

This weekend getaway to the Villa Lena in Tuscany was the perfect occasion to wear my new dress and accessories from Tory Burch SS17.

With its pretty green and pink floral print, the Asilomar dress recalls hostess style and the prep spirit of the American East Coast in the 1960s. Its print is call Garden Party and was really appropriate for my Tuscan weekend as you can see!

I’m really into mules this season and the Tatiana Slides are the chicest! Wear them with the Asilomar dress for an elegant 60's look or with a white t-shirt and a pair of jeans to twist a casual look. The low height makes it great for daylong wear.

Chain bags are so feminine, they add elegance to the silhouette. With its navy glossy leather, the Gemini Link Patent Shoulder Bag instantly elevate your look, no matter the occasion.

Dakhla, Morocco.

March 16, 2017

Located on the Atlantic coast of the Sahara and in the extreme south of Morocco, Dakhla (formerly Villa Cisneros, capital of Spain’s Rio de Oro colony), is a city located between gigantic sand dunes on the edge of a beautiful lagoon with turquoise waters. In 1884 Dakhla is one of the international bases of airmail and transatlantic flights. Before crossing the ocean, explorer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry had stayed there and he probably wrote part of his book "Le Petit Prince".

The Bay of Dakhla is considered one of the best kite-surfing spots in the world.

The Caspian Dress by Tory Burch

Metallic dreams comes true with the Caspian dress by Tory Burch. This fluid, feminine and sophisticated piece is perfect for the evening. I also love to wear it during the day with a denim jacket and a pair of converse to twist a casual look.

The Alastair bag by Tory Burch

October 25, 2016

Horse riding has been a huge part of the Tory Burch‘s world; so it’s no surprise this little bag was named after Tory’s childhood horse, Alastair. You can adjust the straps to wear it on the shoulder or cross-body, or detach them altogether to carry the bag as a clutch. It suits pretty much any style and any occasion! It’s so handy for me as I don’t like switching bags every day. Its pebbled leather is really gorgeous. I find the red one so chic—I love to pair it with a vest top and jeans. It brings a sophisticated touch to any outfit. I used to be a lover of big totes but I truly adore the elegance and lightness it brings to the figure. A classic that I am now totally hooked on !

The Gemini link shoulder bag by Tory Burch

September 2, 2016

Olivia Thébaut x Tory Burch - Chateau La Coste

Meet the new Gemini Link Shoulder Bag from the Tory Burch Fall/Winter 2016 collection. With its new double-link design motif, the Gemini Link celebrate life's dualities and the two sides to every story.

An instant classic, practical by its size and yet stylish, the Gemini Link Shoulder Bag adds chic to my casual day outfits. It also easily follows me through the evening with a shirt or a simple black dress.

I love the subtle detail at the center of the double link, a graphic abstraction of the original Tory Burch double ’T’ and a subtle reference to the number two (the designer is the mother of twins and her zodiac sign is Gemini).

I can't wait for autumn days to mix its soft leather with cosy knits and warm tones.
