AUGUST REVIEW: BEACH FASHION!

Welcome back dolls! I had the most amazing summer and spent the whole month in my home country: The Ukraine. The cherry on top, was my 2 week trip to Yalta.

The American East Coast has the Hamptons. A place where the rich&famous relax and party. It's a known fact that the Russian/ Ukrainian oligarchy captured the Cote d'Azur a couple of years ago. But there's still a group of patriots who remain loyal to the pearl of Crimea: Yalta.

My family is visiting the Hotel Yalta Intourist regularly. My grandparents spent their honeymoon there and my mum enjoyed some crazy clubbing tours with her girlfriends in the wild eighties.))
This hotel is like my second home. I know every corner and administrator. When I was younger, I used to make some hilarious nonsense with my team. ;) But know I prefer a more relaxing kind of trip including spa and sauna sessions, swimming in the pool, healthy food and a delicate social get-together in the evening.))

What else can I say about this place? Oh, yeah hold on: The hotel was bought by a group of Russian billionaires... rumor has it... Roman the Great Abramovich is a part of it. Oh la la! This explains the change in the crowd this year. Where ever you look you see the typical Moscow Beau: Big gold cross, Denis Simachev swim shorts and a heavy Ulysse Nardin on the wrist. Their ladies? They wear Celine and Hermes to the beach, sip champagne in the early morning and change their outfits in two hour gaps. ;) Very interesting to observe for a fashion insterested girl, who grew up in Western European manners. I finally saw the most extravagant Haute Couture pieces of this season live in action! Do you know how many Celine bags I've seen this year in Munich? ONE, seriously only one. I mean, come on!)) It's the bag of the year, this is the weirdest thing ever. In Yalta the Celine It bag 2012 catched my eye approximately five times a day. It's such a pleasure for a fashionista's soul. ;)
The boys try to to stand out as well by wearing print Galliano, floral D&G and colourful Simachev. A 24h fashion show! I love it!
So obviously you have to go with the flow. ;) Which means that stunning beach fashion is a MUST. Maybe even more important than the evening fashion? Kind of... ;)
