NYE Outfit Inspiration - Take that Glitter into the woods

Dear Readers 

For tomorrow's New Years Eve Party I've got a little outfit inspiration for you.

The shooting location is a bit unconventional for a sparkling dress but expresses exactly how I feel right now. The time around Christmas gave me some moments to unwind and relax in the nature. 

But there still needs to be some glitter to celebrate the beginning of a new chapter. I am looking forward to 2017.

Tomorrow there will follow a review of my blog year and for you some sweet surprises to win.

Don't miss it!

I'm wearing: 

Dress: Ines Olympe Mercadal for La Redoute

Boots: Vintage

Last Minute Xmas Giftguide

Christmas is slowly approaching and for those of you who still haven't found the perfect gift for their beloved ones, I have a little selection for you. 

Something for bookworms, film lovers, star wars fans, your BFF, your roomie. 

I really love the jewelry collection of Malaika Raiss. I definitely could buy all of her pendant necklaces. But my favorites are from the dinolove series, the T Rex and from the Star Wars series the Darth Vader or the AT AT. You can add the jewelry to your fan sweater to be ready to watch Rogue One, the newest part of the Star Wars movies which is out since some days. 

For the ones who love to just sit at home and browse through your book collection I have some wonderful suggestions. I admire the pictures of Slim Aarons and Peter Lindbergh or the Honey Ryder  book from Swiss photographer Silvano Zeiter about Snowboard Pro Nicolas Müller. These photo books are a beauty on your coffee table. 

And for the guys - or the girls among us who love this fantastic classic - the James Bond Archives book gives you a detailed overview about every James Bond movie with lots of film stills. 

And if you get in the mood to watch the movies you can get the James Bond DVD Collection on top. 

To relax and take care of your skin I've got some beautiful natural products in my selection.

For the ones who love decoration the sweet home this little cactus lamp seems perfect to me to bring some summer feelings into the winter. As well as the lovely little ballon dog in Jeff Koons style will bring some fun into your flat. And if you want to add the soundtrack you can get an UE Boom 2 which is not only super stylish but also delivers the perfect sound.

You have the chance to win one of the UE Boom Boxes in my recent entry - don't forget to take part!

Have a happy Sunday!

They offer delicious bagels and typical french dishes and a perfect Cappuchino.

Enjoy the upcoming weekend!

Black Bikerlook - Styles for Winter

Another day, another look. I am back from my short weekend escape to Paris and behind the laptop to edit some pictures we recently shot. Long train rides are the perfect moment to spend on blog entries. As you will see as well in upcoming posts, I am totally into the "all black" look right now. I am completely in love with that sweater jacket with leather sleeves from Diesel. It has an amazing detail on the end of the sleeves, such a nice mix of textures. And the hoodie makes it perfect. The fact that I'm actually allowed to wear such a look at work is definitely one of the perks of working in the fashion industry.

I'll be back on the blog with some X-mas surprises for you very soon- so  don't forget to check out my page the next days. If you follow my instagram @bonsoircherieblog  you won't miss it.

Urban Boho - how to combine knits in winter

Even if I don't like the cold I love to be able to wear knits again. If the knit is in good quality - here I mean natural material like cotton or mohair or even cashmere it will keep you warm. Like this you can still wear your leatherjackets in colder temperatures. With adding some accessories the look gets fashionable. I still take out the same hat season after season because somehow it seems to stay trendy. How to you handle the colder season in terms of fashion? 

I'm wearing: 

Knit: Vintage

Fouldard: Stradivarius

Hat: H&M 

Leather Jacket with Shearling Collar: Diesel 

Belt: Mango

Ripped Denims: Mango

Biker Boots: Diesel 

Interior Crush - Evian x Christian Lacroix

I am very happy to share a special project I've been working on some weeks ago. 

To celebrate the ten years anniversary of the evian limited editions the initiators of the project, Christian Lacroix and evian united for a second time. The characteristic Paseo design was newly interpreted according to the "Live Young" philosophy of evian.

I had the pleasure to work together with evian to put the bottles in scene. So this is actually how our dinner table looks every night - or maybe not. But the cozy winter edition is very true to the style of our flat. So you get a little insight of how we live. 

And of course the cookies on the table are a must next to the beautiful evian glass bottles. 

They are an eyecatcher on every festive table. And of course also to enlighten your daily water moments.  I love the fact that you can also use the bottles for decoration once they are empty.

In Switzerland you can get the bottles in selected warehouses, restaurants and hotels.

I'm happy I've got some at my place already.

Surfing in November - Surferslodge Peniche with Surfzurich

If you follow my instagram account you will probably have realized that I am still indulging in the memories of the trip we did with surfzurich. We had just the perfect conditions. With some lovely friends we stayed at the Surfers Lodge in Peniche, Portugal. They offered everything you could wish for. Even an amazing rooftop with pool and jacuzzi and a lot of space to do morning Yoga with a view. The food they served (we had burgers and fresh fish) was really delicious. 

The surf breaks are a 10minutes walk further down the street and you can get bikes or skates for free to get down there. We mostly surfed Lagide. 

Together with two friends I booked some surf lessons there to improve.

We were very lucky with our guide. Always looking for the right spot for us, nice waves, not too crowded and according to our level. After some bigger waves in Bali in October I was a bit blocked and had to overcome the fear of waves. Felt pretty stupid and you know all the time it is only mental but hesitation in the water will only bring you wipeouts. So I was insisting on small waves to get the confidence back. Surfing is an amazing sport but you need a lot of patience. And I always have a lot of respect of the ocean. Especially if I don't now the spot I want to learn first about current or the underground and of course check tides before going out. There are days were everything is perfect and even bigger waves are easy to take, but then it happens that nothing goes right and you feel like you never surfed before. 

So for me it is the best to take lessons again from time to time. The nice thing here is as well, that almost every guide will teach you something on top you haven't known before. 

So the surf experience will go on. Check out this  article about some things to consider if you want to start surfing. 

To not shorten the fashion part of this blog I am sharing a Peniche style with you. 

Most important was to stay comfy and warm. Temperatures were mild this time, but after you've been in the water you get cold pretty quick. Our bags contained warm sweaters, down jackes, beanies and ugg boots to be safe. The day these pictures were taken was actually the warmest one.

I am wearing: 

Military Jacket: Stradivarus

Blondie Shirt: Stradivarius

Shoes: Adidas Gazelle

Ripped Skinny Jeans: Mango
