Two of the season’s must-haves together at last: army green with flowers. Yet special flowers, all over the jacket in a very seventies-style cut and design. …

A very easy but far from ordinary look: a bottle green blouse flatters both brunettes and blondes, and the small, upturned collar is elegant and frames the face. Equally beautiful are the high-waisted, sand-colored pants by Zara. I feel perfect while staying budget-friendly, how about you? …

The cult piece: my beautiful Comme des Garcons trench coat. Underneath, a cool palette of greens and my precious brocade jacket by Mauro Grifoni. My personal touch: animal print booties! …

For the coming International Furniture Fair in April in Milan, I chose a very “graphic” outfit: a coat that looks like a design piece: little white marks on a black ground. The cropped pants are the coat’s negative: white with a black pattern. But the look as a whole really makes the difference: as well-balanced and striking as a painting by Capogrossi. …

I feel daring today and I’m letting my gipsy, colorful spirit out for a run. My look revolves around beautiful black vintage cowboy boots, paired with a floral skirt that I bought at Forte dei Marmi’s street market and reminds me that spring is around the corner, and with a lovely ethnic-style cherry-red coat! …
