SIHH 2018 for the first time

Jan 21, 2018 by Valentina Voos No Comments
Some things in life you never forget and my first SIHH will be one of those… For those who don’t know, SIHH means Salon International de Haute Horlogerie, which in literal translation means International show of high end watch making. SHII started in 1991 when 5 prestigious watch brands decided do break off from Basel world show and make a venue in Geneva. The intention was to create more of an intimate and luxurious experience….whereas the Basel show was way too big to accomplish that. The attempt succeeded… Especially after the endorsement of the Richmond Group which comprises, under the… Read more

Sleeping like a Queen – Hotel D’Angleterre

Dec 14, 2017 by Valentina Voos No Comments
The Crown is back…. Elizabeth II is the Queen, but more than that, she has been the longest influential woman of all times… Inspired by her and watching the Crown, I spent the night in the iconic Hotel d’Angleterre in Geneva… Pure delight!!! The hotel is what you would expect for a English luxurious hotel… Loads of tapestry, wall paper, portraits and crystal chandeliers. Talking about crystal chandeliers, I had an amazing, enormous one on top of my bed… OMG, beautiful… A Royal piece… Royal was also the treatment the hotel gave to us… Champagne, muffins, nuts and candle lights…… Read more

What started as a mission to find one missing E.T. What started as a mission to find one missing E.T. poster turned into something I could never have planned…. Not in my best dreams… 

No valid ticket. Ten minutes before closing. One very kind Universal team member who decided to help me anyway. He let me enter the park with me to get the souvenir…

We searched. We didn’t find the poster. We stopped for a few minutes to watch the fireworks. And just when I thought the story was over, he surprised me with a Hello Kitty T-shirt as a gift.

The funny part? Sanrio’s philosophy has always been “Small Gift, Big Smile.”
I only discovered that afterwards.

Sometimes the best souvenirs are not the ones you were looking for — but the stories you never expected to bring home.

And yes… I am still looking for that E.T. poster.

Mission accomplished. We came to the US for one v Mission accomplished.

We came to the US for one very big reason: to leave my daughter here for high school. And now, somehow, it’s almost time for us to go home without her. My heart is racing fast in anticipation…

That sentence feels much bigger when I write it than it did when we were planning all of this.

So before the goodbyes, we did what we do best: we made memories. We laughed, we walked far too many steps, we took ridiculous amounts of photos… and yes, we went to Disney.

I know there are people who might look at a grown woman wearing Minnie ears and think, Really? Disney?

And my answer is: absolutely.

Because one of the privileges of getting older is realizing that you don’t have to defend the things that make you happy.

People will judge what you wear, what you love, how you parent, where you travel, how loudly you laugh, how seriously you take life — or how unseriously.
They’re going to judge anyway.

So you might as well give them something joyful to judge. 

Disney makes me ridiculously happy. Being silly with the people I love makes me happy. Creating memories before a difficult goodbye makes me happy.

And I’ve decided happiness doesn’t need to look sophisticated to be meaningful.

Soon, we’ll leave one of our greatest treasures here to build her own adventure. I know that’s exactly what we’re supposed to do as parents: give them roots, then somehow find the courage to let them use their wings.

My heart is full, proud, excited… and already a little broken.

But what a beautiful reason to have a broken heart. Right? 

Here’s to new chapters, brave daughters, emotional mothers, Mickey ears, animal print trousers and never becoming too grown-up for the things that make your soul light up.

CHIC OR SHABBY — WHO DECIDES? We like to think CHIC OR SHABBY — WHO DECIDES?

We like to think taste is personal.

But is it?

Change the person wearing something, the room they are wearing it in, the brand attached to it — and suddenly our perception changes too.

The interesting part isn’t that fashion changes.
It’s how quickly we change with it.

So I’m curious: what is something you once considered completely not chic… and now happily wear?

Charleston, you’re a whole mood. 🌴💗 A lit Charleston, you’re a whole mood. 🌴💗

A little Southern charm, horse-drawn carriages, hidden gardens, pink finds I definitely didn’t need but absolutely wanted… and me happily wandering through it all. Never imagined you were as nice as you are…

There’s something about this town — elegant, colourful, a little nostalgic and completely full of history that can be not so pretty…
Add Michael Brown playing in the background and it feels like the perfect soundtrack to a Charleston afternoon. 

Pink dress, palm trees, pretty streets and a little shopping along the way… Charleston, I think you suit me… and think now that I have met you I will need to be back!

WHY DO SOME PEOPLE THINK THEY’RE TOO GOOD FOR DI WHY DO SOME PEOPLE THINK THEY’RE TOO GOOD FOR DISNEY?

Maybe adulthood has made us a little too concerned with looking sophisticated.

We learn to be serious, efficient, rational—and somewhere along the way, we can become embarrassed by the things that simply make us happy.

I’m not.

Give me the ears, the pins, the ice cream, the rides and the screaming. 😂
For me, Disney is less about pretending the real world doesn’t exist and more about giving myself permission to leave it outside for a few hours.
And perhaps growing older shouldn’t mean becoming harder to impress.
What is something you absolutely refuse to “outgrow”?

A new chapter begins today. Until now, I have sha A new chapter begins today.

Until now, I have shared many beautiful places, experiences and encounters. From now on, I also want to share the stories, opinions and curiosities behind them.

Every Friday, a new conversation—from luxury and travel to fashion, relationships, business, watches, beauty, cars and, naturally, my three C’s: Coca-Cola Zero, coffee and chocolate.

Next Friday, from Disney: why adults still need magic.

Welcome to my world—this time, with a little more of what I really think.
