Summer survival guide :)

This is my ultimate summer survival guide, necessary for the islands, boats and all things sunny, sandy and salty :)

1. Frezyderm Sun Screen for the face +50, my partner in crime and the one Greek product that I will absolutely vouch for. It feels like velvet and it covers the skin without blocking the pores. Try the one for the body as well - no more burns or spots guaranteed!

2. Greek Sandals - you can never have enough and the rest of the world seems to have realised this as well! They are handmade out of authentic leather and crafted in Greece. My go-to pair right now is the little braided one by Grecian sandals, you can find a beautiful collection here.

3. Hat - both for style and protection I tend to collect hats like a crazy person! I adore this wide-brimmed hat from Nasty Gal with its leather detail, matching my sandals!

4. Shades - Celine for ever!

Art pieces

Art and fashion can very easily bleed into one another: runway shows can become art installations and presentations (see Alexander McQueen, Marc Jacobs at Louis Vuitton and Molly Goddard) and art is as much as a commodity as the latest handbag or pair of shoes. Sometimes, designers are much more explicit about the way in which art affects and impacts their aesthetic, splashing famous prints or paintings across their clothing to create dramatic statement looks. Here, we’ve looked at some of the most memorable recent amalgamations of art and fashion, providing new perspectives on the pieces whilst also bringing them to the market in a fun and refreshing way

Blues

What I love the most about this time of year is how easy it is to look nice and feel comfortable at the same time, a luxury that winter with it’s puffy coats and boots does not allow.. A pair of polished sandals and a jumpsuit can go a long way making you look pretty and you can wear them from day to night. Here I’m wearing a Warehouse lace detail jumpsuit (I have a soft spot for jumpsuits and rompers in the summer) with the two of the best additions to my summer accessories cabinet – Stamerra genuine exotic leather cuffs which seem to never leave my hands these days and which you can find here in all colours, shapes and skins and my pass-partout Aspiga Beach silver Luna sandals. What do you guys like to wear most in the summer?

Denmark: All the pretty castles

Before I went I had absolutely no idea how wonderful Denmark is. Not just Copenhagen, where I could easily see myself emigrating, but also the countryside, filled with cottages offering their inhabitants the highest possible quality of life and some of the most impressive castles I've ever seen. While in Denmark we took a day from shopping and playing tourists in Copenhagen and visited the magnificent danish countryside where I had one of the most fruitful days exploring castle after castle. Below you'll find some snapshots from the royal Fredensborg Palace, Hamlet's castle in Helsingor and Frederiksborg Slot with its breathtaking gardens as well as Amalienborg Palace in Copenhagen during the change of the guard.

For a day on the move I went for the cutest Monki sneakers, and ripped boyfriend jeans - kept me comfy all day!

Stockholm: Old town bound

My favourite place of all during my trip up north was Stockholm's picturesque old town, Gamla Stan, with the narrow cobblestone streets and colourful old buildings, taking up an entire island and waiting to be explored. So many traditional restaurants, cute tea places and lots of historical sites. It was breezy on the day so I wore a denim shirt with my Peter Pilotto x Target printed sweatshirt from the recent capsule. Soon to be sporting bikinis and sundresses from the same collection on my Croatian yacht week trip the following week - so excited!
