My friends, they get me higher and higher...Remember how Blair and Chuck destroyed some silk sheets to the sound of this The Ting Tings song? ;) It was the last season premier, and where was it? In Monte Carlo! We all remember the legendary casino scene and this untamable feeling screaming 'I wish I was there!' (although it was technically shot at the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City). Well this year I made it. ;)
The magical principality is famous for many things including its glamour, the billionaires, the yachting, being the Nr.1 European tax heaven and obviously the countless tales and stories surrounding the rich and famous. For those of you who never visited the world's second smallest sovereign state here's what's going on: It's super unspectacular (sorry dear Monégasques)! France and Italy have so much to offer, why would you visit this super crowded built up 'city'? That was my first thought... but then we drove to this tunnel above the Twiga club (epic place btw!) and went up stairs - And there it was, the most amazing place in the world: MONTE CARLO. Nobu, Buddha Bar, Hôtel de Paris, Valentino, Chanel... I didn't even know what to look at first! The sun was shining, it was so incredibly hot and magical and thinking back it still feels like a dream. Guys, you have to see this! It's everything. We had the best time ever and I finally got to act out my gambling addiction. Lol, at least a little bit. Here are some snaps from the trip, I can't wait to go back... in a long Dolce & Gabbana lace dress... obviously. ;)

Good Night! Lots of love & sweet dreams
See you in Monaco ;)

Welcome to St. Tropez! The legendary Timati song made my summer (the original Russian version is far more amazing btw). Nothing screams more Cote d'Azur than a Russian guy in a Philipp Plein leather jacket driving around in a white Ferrari. ;) We didn't go to St. Tropez but Cannes and Monaco turned out to be even better. For centuries aristocrats visited the French Riviera dedicating poems, songs and art works to its incomparable beauty and elegance. It is the most breathtaking place in the world, so epic and sensational!
Nothing in the world will make you feel more like Blair Waldorf than a round of blackjack at Casino Monte Carlo (followed by dinner at Nobu.) ;) Guys, it is so worth a visit! We traveled around the entire coast and experienced the most unforgettable vacation ever! But let's take one at a time... ;) Today I will share my favourite snaps from Cannes and tomorrow we will go for Monte Carlo.
Taken at: InterContinental Carlton, Martinez, Baoli Beach, Galerie Bartoux, La Croisette
CANNES: The film festival, the celebrities, the red carpet, the hotels, la Croisette, the glamour - This is undeniably the most vivid city of Southern France. There are millions of ways to entertain yourself. Shopping, clubbing, most importantly swimming and just chilling all day long at Bâoli beach - It's paradise on earth! What surprised me most was this feeling of home. I could totally see myself moving to Cannes. When you drink coffee at the Carlton Cafe, overlooking the sea, feeling the breeze, surrounded by billionaires and Arabian princesses and princes you're just like: LIFE IS GOOD! ;) I am so thankful. What is your ultimate Cannes hotspot? Let me know! One thing is for sure, I'll be back! Promis... ;)
