Summer in the city

When you spend your summer in a beautiful city, you need a lovely summer collection of daily luxuries to keep you cool in the streets. A lovely outfit in white, beige and peach will delight your summer soul. A beautiful Liu jo jeans with an off shoulder top in white or beige or a macramΓ© top is a perfect summer ensemble for chique days in town (Liu jo, Twin-set, Mango, Patrizia pepe). A little lace is beautiful for summer, too (Liu jo, Twin-set, Intimissimi, Isabel MarantMaje) πŸ’™. Don’t forget to wear romantic earrings and bracelets in the shape of hearts or butterflies to make you look as sweet as a macaron (Tiffany’s, Patrizia pepe). A beige leather bucket bag (Mansur Gavriel) and a pair of heels or slippers (Choo) will complement your classy look. A fresh summer hair cut with a dewy make up is all you need for your beautiful summer style (Dior nude). Dressed in white and beige cashmere, cotton, lace and denim, you will feel like a summer breeze in the city πŸ’™.

Summer luxury_ June πŸ’™

This summer you need a few daily luxuries for those beautiful days in the city and on the beach. To begin with you need a beautiful bikini in white, turquoise blue or jade green. The lovely summer bikinis in the colours of the ocean will give you a goddess of the sea-look, when dressed with beautiful golden, jade and turquoise jewelry. The bikinis come in beautiful designs and textures this summer, for example the romantic white lace bikinis, triangle or off shoulder, and the beautiful embellished or soft toned bikinis in coral, mint or turquoise (Liu Jo, Twin-Set, Victoria’s Secret). 

And when you go to town after a lovely summer day on the beach, you can wear your beautiful tan with a white summer dress or casual denim skirt ( I love the one from Liu Jo!) with a white, striped or turquoise tee or top. Accentuate your beautiful tan with a dewy, natural glow on the cheeks (Dior sorbet, Dior Bronze), coco lipbalm (Kiko spf 15), and beautiful eyes (Dior addict eyeliner, Chanel inimitable mascara). Havaianas is all you need really for the city and the beach, but you can also choose one of the beautiful heels and slippers from Choo’s and Valentino for example. Beautiful beige or turquoise slippers or heels are perfect with jeans and a top. Now you only need an icecream and watermelon to cool off on a beautiful summer day πŸ’™πŸ‰ xx

Barca: city on the beach πŸ’™

Barcelona is a beautiful city on the beach. One day you can explore the beautiful architecture of the city and the Mediterranean culture, and the other day you can have a lovely day on the beach. The city is divided in several barrios or districts, from the chique and beautiful Eixample, the little and authentic streets of Borne and Gracia to the beaches and chirrinquitos of Barcelonetta. 

To begin with, you need to go to the Passeig de Gracia to shop, where you will find beautiful boutiques and little bakeries for macarons with caffe con leche (don’t miss the dolci at Γ‰picerie in Via Pau Claris). In the Passeig de Gracia you will find beautiful architecture and the fairytale buildings from GaudΓ­ (Casa Batillo and la Pedrera). In the little streets of Gracia you will find many authentic tapas restaurants, while in Borne  there is a mix of Mediterranean and international restaurants and local boutiques. A beautiful example is the delicious fusion restaurant named Ikibana with Japanese and Brazilian dishes (urumaki sushi with strawberry and palmhearts mm). While it is much fun to go stand up paddle surfing in Barcelonetta, and to chill in one of the chirrinquitos on the beach (try the french toast and fresh juices at Surf House BCN and the sweets and juices at Rosaria’s), the beach in Mar bella is more beautiful to swim and chill.
