A very Saint Yves

The new "Yves Saint Laurent" movie left me emotionally drunk. It was an explosive cocktail of emotions, love, desire, passion, fascination, devotion, beauty and fashion, fashion, fashion..
This movie is a must for all fashion victims and all other victims.. of a lifeless life..
Another must is reading Alicia Drake's "Beautiful People". Only this ensemble enables to understand the world of Yves Saint Laurent, Karl Lagerfeld, Jacques de Bascher, Thadée Klossowski or Loulou de la Falaise during the '80.. At that time Paris was undoubtedly absolutely fantastic to live. But when Paris wasn't so..? If you are part of the happy few of course..

My top quotes by "Beautiful People":

''It isn't the easy life that we want, it is just the life without problems."
"You had not to be rich or famous but you had to be beautiful."
"In fact, nobody of us was interested in reality."
"Be yourself, be individualist, express yourself,
 be free."
"We hated all that was normal, the real life."
"With Karl Lagerfeld, you had the permanent sensation that dreams are real."

Just one question: Which misery?!

The only misery is all that is not beautiful..

WHITE TURF ST. MORITZ #SpeedOnTop

Sunday. Sun. St. Moritz.  St. Moritz is a little paradise. No doubts. On 4th Feb '18 another great event took place  on THE frozen lake. #TheLakeToBe Me, personally I am a huge Polo fan, so the last weekend of January is always heaven for me, but the White Turf, well, you cannot miss it neither. Sure, the races are awesome. The horses my favourite top stars. But the White Turf is as well a beautiful meeting place for catching up with friends, horse lovers and good life addicts. It's a time when you can enjoy champagne for breakfast (Laurent-Perrier Rosé #SoOMG) and breath the wonderful world.  St.Moritz #AlwaysTheSun The car with a certain je ne sais quoi..  In Rolls-Royce I trust.. #TooMuchIsNeverEnough #RRWinterLounge @spiritofrollsroyce So see you on 11th or 18th February 2018 for the next White Turf St. Moritz #TopOfTheWorld..!
