I took another quick trip to St.Maarten to celebrate my dear friend Ania‘s birthday, but this time with my girl WInny & a crew of girls from Toronto, Miami & New York. I love traveling but I’m a horrible packer, so I’m always trying to find efficient ways to pack and in the process have managed to collect a ton of various travel accessories to help keep me organized. My favourite is the Louis Vuitton Monogram Pegase 55 Business Rolling Luggage. It’s the perfect carry-on size, fits everything I need in case my suitcase gets lost, has an outside pocket to fit my computer (and wires) and rolls effortlessly. I brought this with me to SXM along with my super convenient little Louis Vuitton Eva cross-body clutch & vintage Chanel black quilted duffel bag…all timeless, durable & stylish. Be sure to check out Fashionably Yours.com for a great selection of authentic Louis Vuitton luggage, discounted from 30% – 70% off retail prices. Stay tuned for my SXM Photo Diary…xo

I’ve always been a fan of the Celine Luggage Tote but was never so inclined to buy one until a recent visit to Barney’s in NYC. I stopped dead in my tracks when I first laid eyes on this stunning bag. The sales associate advised me that the bag had only been sitting on the shelf for 30 minutes before low and behold, I walked through those doors. Whether or not that was true, I couldn’t stand the thought of the sleepless nights I would have without this beautiful new found Celine Leopard Luggage Tote. I proceeded to dish out the $3500 so we could be together forever, then took a couple memorable photos from my hotel room in NYC. You’ll probably be seeing a lot of this bag around here. xoxo

I brought my little puppy CC (aka Chloe Chanel) along with us on a road trip to NYC. I wasn’t sure how she was going to handle traveling but she was so well behaved, happy and cute as ever.

My dear friend DJ WIKKED spent a few weeks as guest DJ at Tanta SXM (St. Maarten), so of course Ania & I rolled through to support. It was good times all around in SXM. This super cute pink romper by Rachel Roy has been sitting in my closet waiting for somewhere fun to rock it.

If you have never been to St.Martin (French West Indies) and ever decide to visit, there’s one place you should consider and that’s Loterie Farm Nature Reserve. Whether you like nature or extreme sports or neither, you will love Loterie Farm. It’s a secret hideway nestled in the hillside of Pic Paradis on the French Saint Martin. It’s an unforgettable place where you can wine, dine, climb, hike and glide over the treetops. We booked the one hour Fly Zone which included zip-lining, climbing and other obstacles through mountains. No big deal, except that I didn’t pack sneakers and don’t own flats, so I went on a mission to find something functional for me to Zip-line in and lucked out and found these super cute Chanel sneakers!!! Now I was ready to concur nature’s best. Ania & I zipped from tree to tree like monkeys and literally flew through mountains. It was wild and I will definitely go back and attempt the Extreme 2 hour Fly Zone next time. After an hour of hard work in the sweltering hot sun, we headed to L’eaulounge (located on Loterie Farm), which is a private cabana enclave featuring a natural spring fed swimming pool & Jacuzzi. The water felt like silk & it was one of the most tranquil places I have ever been. Simply a perfect day with great company. Thanks Loterie Farm. We’ll surely be back soon xo
OUTFIT: Fendi Leopard Bikini, American Graffit Vintage Sunglasses

I took an impromptu trip to the Carribean, the beautiful St.Maarten, to spend time with my dear good friend Ania. I’ve heard nothing but amazing things about SXM so it was definitely on my hit list of places to visit hence I took a few days off from @shopFY and hopped on a plane for yet another random trip. We stayed on this beautiful beach front oasis with our own private beach and from the picture perfect blue water to the daily fresh seafood, I was in Heaven. We jammed packed a lot into our short vacation and was surrounded by unbelievable sights and sounds, of which we captured hundreds of photos, but here’s few for now. More SXM updates coming soon.

I flew in on a red-eye from Las Vegas to NYC, straight to a really long day of meetings. The next morning, I was itching for some uptown shopping, paid a visit to Hermes, YSL, then Bergdorf Goodman, my favourite one-stop department store for luxury shopping. I headed directly to the shoe section to stock up on fall shoes. It’s like a candy store for shoes filled with tons of limited edition runway shoes and classics alike. I debuted my Orange Hermes Birkin 35 for the occasion and fit right in with all the other Birkin wearing ladies that frequent Bergdorf’s.
OUTFIT: Hermes Orange Birkin 35 Bag, YSL tank top, Eryn Bryn vest, Gucci belt, Louis Vuitton wedges, Hermes Red Colier de Chien, Hermes Yellow H Clic Clac, Hermes Blue Medor Watch, Chanel necklace

Bye Bye Bergdorf…until next time. xo

People are always astounded by how much I pack whilst traveling. As much as I love clothes, I’m totally obsessed with accessories and have managed to collect a lot of everything over the years. Some people collect art. I collect designer accessories & platform shoes. I get rid of a lot of my clothing every season, but accessories last decades. To me, accessories are every day essentials and without them I feel naked. Here’s just a few goodies I packed for my trip to Vegas & New York. Absolutely necessary for 8 days of frolicking.



From Top to Bottom: Chole, YSL Vintage, Gucci Vintage, Leonard Paris Vintage, YSL Vintage, Marni.

Louis Vuitton toiletry bags are an absolute travel must-have. I use them to keep my accessories, makeup & toiletries organized in my suitcase & carry-on. They are extremely durable & most of them even have a washable interior with bottle holders. I would highly recommend you invest in one or two or three of these for every day or travel. There’s an amazing selection available now in several shapes & sizes at Fashionably Yours, for much less than retail.

The Louis Vuitton Eden Runway Speedy, my go-to travel bag with Louis Vuitton Accessories Pouchette which I use for every day make-up & my Louis Vuitton Cellphone case which was originally produced only one year to hold a Motorolla Flip phone back in the 90′s, but just happen to fit my Blackberry perfectly!! I love this little thing.

Options.
