PARIS WITH LOVE

October 7th, 2016 Comments off

Paris has always held a special place in my heart. Paris is electric in too many ways to count. The architecture, the wonderful restaurants and bakeries, the innate fashion sense of the locals-everything here-is so lively and different from our life in the US. This is where Loc and I went for our honeymoon 6 years ago and I’m so happy to be back in Paris with our baby, Sage and Loc’s Mom, Nội.

We attended some shows but mostly spent our time sight seeing, wandering through the city, exploring, eating and drinking. We wanted to bring Sage to all of the places that we love here and she seemed to love them just as much. I’m so grateful to have this experience and share it with our growing family.

This is what I wore to the Esteban Cortazar show: a long maxi pencil skirt, a cropped crisp white blouse and netting on my hair. I feel like this is the city where you can push your boundaries, get out of your comfort zone and try something different with your make-up, hair, and clothes.

Wearing: Haider Ackermann skirt, Alaia top, Fendi booties, and Chanel vintage belt

PACKING LIGHT, WHAT TO BRING TO MEXICO

March 31st, 2016 4 comments

There isn’t much more I love than a good jumpsuits for my summer getaway. They don’t take up much space in your luggage, you can wear them with flats for daytimes and add on espadrilles for nighttime. When I travel, I’m all about packing light.  I always look for versatile items that can do the mix and match magic and cotton is my go to. Cotton feels wonderful next to your skin and breaths better in the hot climate.  I only pack a few silk items for nicer dinner, they’re too fragile, and only look good when you steam it out nicely.

Tulum is extremely casual, the entire trip I didn’t wear make up and have on flats, I brought a pairs of wedges with me and wore it once. Here is a little idea of what to pack for 7 days in Tulum. Life on the beach is causal, most of the time you will be in your swimsuits and a little cute cover up. Everyone dressed really neat and chic in Tulum! Get your gears ready.

2 rompers can wear both day and night

2 dresses

2 sarongs for swimsuits coverup

2 kaftans for swimsuits coverup

2  tee shirts

2 cute tops that can be worn with shorts or pants at night

3 shorts, 1 linen long pants

7 swimsuits

3 pajamas sets.

1 beach bag for day time and one for night time.

1 straw hat. The one I have is vintage boater hat and I LOVE IT. You can find them on Etsy.

1 cotton scarf or lightweight sweater  to wear over your shoulder if you have dinner on the beach, the ocean breeze can be chilly at night.

for shoes: 1 flip flops for the beach, 1 nicer slides for dinner, 1 tennis shoes for going to the ruins, and 1 wedges for night time

for jewelries: I wear my two small gold necklaces all day, great for the beach and looks beautiful at night, and a few layering rings.

3 sunglasses, it always change up your look with different sunnies and they don’t take up much space.

Wearing: Sonia by Sonia Rykiel jumpsuits, Rochas slides, Celine

Sonia rykiel green cotton jumpsuits

Kaan Luum Lagoon, Tulum

March 30th, 2016 1 comment

It was our first time in Tulum, Mexico for Loc’s Birthday and we are in love with the rawest of this town. We dipped into this beautiful lagoon with turquoise green water, shallow all around with a deep sink hole for diving in the middle. The lagoon is 10mins by car from Tulum town. We loved it so much that we made another trip back for baby Sage to play and having a little picnic with tropical fruits and coconuts water. It’s hidden, be sure to ask your concierge for direction before you head out. And don’t forget your sunscreen.

Wearing: She Made Me crochet swimsuits, Warby Parker sunnies, and vintage boater hat that I found on Easy.

Cozumel

August 28th, 2015 1 comment

It’s our first time in Cozumel and we really enjoyed this island. The water is crystal clear, great for snorkeling and swimming. Sage loved the sand and the beach as much as we do. Traveling with small babies can be a challenge, for that reason I packed super light for myself. I brought lots of lightweight layering pieces such as caftans, shorts and lightweight dresses. Wearing: Miguelina Rachel caftan, Free People sunnies, Saint Laurent stars sneakers, and vintage straw bag. Have a great day to all! xo Nini
