Hotel Missoni Edinburgh

As I mentioned yesterday, during our visit of Edinburgh, we stayed few nights in the Missoni Hotel. I can honestly say it's one of the best hotels I've stayed in and I stayed in quite a few. Not only it's super stylish, the attention to detail is second to none. From the amazing design, complimentary mini bar (which even contained designer diet coke) to the fluffy Missoni bath robes and lovely smelling toiletries, you're in for a treat.

The breakfast was not only delicious, but served with style like everything else. I could honestly fault nothing. You get free wifi (which surprisingly isn't free in many even more expensive hotels), lots of movies on demand and so much more. It's worth every penny.
The only thing that slightly upsets me it's the fact, that from what I've seen on their website, many rooms are full of pink and our room had none. I guess next time I have to try another one then ;)
Have a stylish day.

Highland fling

We couldn't get further away from Chelsea during our next getaway. We went all the way up north to Fort William - Scotland. The scenery was just breathtaking. We spent a relaxing week there, exploring the place.
But no matter where I am, I can't resist adding a pink lippy to my already massive collection.
I joined in in some local festivities, watching proper Scotsman playing the bag-pipes. I wore yet again my Valentino flats, Acne jeans, Mulberry Bayswater, Michael Kors leather jacket and Dior sunglasses.

From Fort William we drove three hours to Edinburgh. I couldn't get enough of the beautiful views on the way and fell in love with the scottish capital. For two nights we stayed in Waldorf Astoria (must be done) and then went to the Missoni hotel, which was one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in. More about that tomorrow.
I slept in some great beds. The one bellow was as good as it looked.
Have a stylish day.

More adventures plus LFW

During my adventures came the fashion month and even though I didn't do the whole London Fashion Week this season, I couldn't resist attending few events. Above is a dress I loved by Evmorfia.
LFW of course means full on make up. Here's few bits from my extensive collection.
Needles to say I've been wearing my Valentinos a lot. They seem to go so well with everything, including my Acne jeans.

When in Somerset House, I picked up a leaflet for the upcoming Valentino exhibition, which takes place there and starts in November. I can't wait to see it!
Also spending time in all these amazing hotels with numerous facilities I'd feel guilty not to take advantage. Hence I picked up a new sport. I have to admit I haven't been playing as much as I loved to, but I really enjoy tennis.
Have a stylish day.

Chelsea girl part 2

Wherever in London you are, there is so much to see. We went for numerous walks and countless of dinners ( the perfect occasion to wear my Donna Karan dress).

No matter what you do, you still have to find time to chill out with a glass of bubbly and catch up on your favourite magazines. And make sure to look up in the sky through your favourite sunglasses :)
Have a stylish day.

Chelsea girl

We stayed in Chelsea for quite a while, as it's such a great part of London. Plus the hotel was amazing. Can you believe the breakfasts they served?!
Needless to say my Valentino have become something of a uniform, here I am wearing them with Helmut Lang jeans, H&M peplum top, Dior sunglasses and YSL clutch.

Chelsea is just a stone throw away from Knightsbridge - I can never resist a little visit of Harrods or Harvey Nichols. That's where I picked my beloved new pink YSL clutch bag and Chanel nail polish in dark burgundy to get ready for autumn.
Have a stylish day.

I'm back!

After (not so) short break I am back and kind of excited. I have to admit I missed blogging but sometime you have to make priorities, meaning I took a step back from the online world for a while. That's not to say I ignored it completely. I have been instagraming the adventures of last few months and I'm going to share the (in my opinion) best bits in the upcoming posts.
And what I've been up to? The BF and I have been travelling a lot, shopping, eating out - trying new restaurants and bars and simply discovering what Britain has to offer. And it's been great!

We started in the Sofitel St. James hotel just off Picadilly Circus, which is absolutely amazing location and had some cool Hermes toiletries.
Then we moved onto The Windham Grand hotel in Chelsea Harbour, where the view was absolutely fantastic. Just below it looked like St. Tropez, but when you looked around you could see amazing London skyline.
When you're in Chelsea you simply have to visit Sloane Street - I love that road. I popped into Valentino store there and was treated by my BF to my dream pair of studded flats and discovered a new favourite perfume Valentina.
Have a stylish day.
