Rifle Paper Co. for L'Occitane

L'Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream is one of my all time favourite products. With 20% Shea Butter and a blend of honey, almond and coconut oil this iconic hand cream deeply nourish and soften dry skin. My hands get so dry in winter that I make sure to always carry this hand cream with me. It penetrates rapidly without leaving any greay film behind so I can even apply it on the go. It is such a faboulous product and a true must-have for me. Could the Shea Butter Hand Cream get any better?

Well, with this limited edition I think it has! For this limited edition the Shea Butter range is adorned with an exclusive design by inspiring stationery and lifestyle brand Rifle Paper Co surely not to be missed! Rifle Paper Co. has really managed to bring its signature cheerful florals to this limited edition collection of shea products.

Nobis arrives in Switzerland!

Nobis arrives in Switzerland! Nobis, brand of chic outerwear finally arrives in Switzerland, after 10 years of existence and deployment in all corners of the globe. 

Nobis, Latin for "us", was founded in 2007 in Canada by RobinYates (known for having been vice-president of the Canada Goose).

 The brand was born following the observation made about the seasons, which today are constantly changing. That's why  Nobis  wants to offer clothes that are suitable for all temperatures, where functionality is combined with elegance. Based on the spirit of "trends will come and go but style, function and quality will remain forever timeless", the founders have developed a complete range of timeless and intergenerational pieces. Sustainability that goes hand in hand with a Nobis spirit of respect for natural elements and human adaptation to the hazards of nature.

The other night in Lausanne I was able to discover the AW collection for myself and I was really impressed by the quality and style of the high-tech fabrics. The avant-garde silhouettes take inspiration from the 50s couture while embracing contemporary streetwear. The color palette combines darker shades including concrete gray, navy blue and black but also Fall tones like green or cabernet red.

You can find Nobis in Lausanne at the luxury sports store TrendMania.

A pop of yellow!

This outfit to show how a pop of yellow can really cheer up any look this Winter. Some see yellow as a tricky colour to wear. I just think it can work on anyone depending of course on how you wear it. There are lots of ways to bring some yellow in your closet. As it is a statement colour it is important for me to pick a yellow item and keep the rest really basic and neutral by pairing it for example with beige, charcoal, white or grey. It is important also to find the right shade of yellow that works for you and make sure that it doesn't make you look washed out. If you are still afraid of wearing yellow then go for a yellow statement accessory: a yellow bag or a bag charm will surely make your outfit stand out!

News from Akyado: Fleur de Lait Body Products

During the Holiday it was a real pleasure to test some of the novelties that Akyado sent me. The products with my favourite scent Fleur de Lait were a real treat for my body and mind. Akyado Pure Helvetic Care offers professional quality products and expertise  for hands and body so that they are cared for as if you were with your professional therapist every day. Akyado product are natural and paraben free.

Akyado ranges includes fancy fragrances such as Frozen Yogurt, Chai, Mojito, Crumble, Limoncello but also includes more classic fragrances such as Fleur de Lait and Cup of Tea. The Fleur de Lait range which is a real treat for dry hands now also offers two products for the body with a peeling and a body cream.

The melting texture of the body cream soothes and calms skin while also providing for deep hydration. It penetrates quickly and doesn't leave any greasy residues. The sweet fragrance enhanced by a floral note is really comforting and pleasant. The Body Peeling is composed by grains in two different sizes that ensures for a deep exfoliation and cellular renewal while the delicate scent stays with you for several hours after application.

Fluffy coat love!

Who doesn't need a fluffy coat this Winter? I really do think is a must-have in any closet! It is soft, fashionable and really adorable! It works well with both casual and smart attire and if you opt for a light colour e.g. beige just like mine you will be sure to wear it often as it simply goes with everything. Mine is from H&M and I managed to find it in the sales just after Christmas so it was not only a great find but also a real deal! Of course with such an important coat I kept the accessories to the bare minimum to balance out the whole look.
