Sea breeze
On each new trip, it seems like we rediscover the world somehow. There’s nothing I enjoy more that finding new places. This first time is always full of so many beautiful emotions. For example the first time I’ve ever tried my all time favorite restaurant, I got so excited… Like a kid in a candy store. I will never forget the taste of those delicious crispy fresh fries or the silkiness of the fish. Of course coming back still feels great, you have your favorite options, you know the staff, have been seated at each table, but you’ll never have this first time impression again. Sort of like this innocence, freshness that goes along with trying something new.
That’s exactly how I felt while exploring the gorgeous Eden Roc hotel, just outside Cannes in the cap D’Antibes for the very first time. Chopard invited us for a delicious little lunch there and we had a couple of hours in front of us to walk around and breath in the fresh, free air of the sea. Needless to say that I’ve heard a lot about the Eden Roc. And I can now say that it’s definitely one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen in my entire life. A reason that seems to attracts a highly interesting crowd too : there we were lunching, minding our own business as Sofia Coppola walks by, followed by Alessandra Ambrosio, and then of course Carine Roitfeld. They were all there eating fresh fish and sipping mimosas.
I was fascinated by the beauty of the place and I wish that next time I’m back, and I am definitely planning to be back, I’ll be just as impressed as I was. That day, I picked this beautiful dress from Roberto Cavalli’s archive collection. At first, I was very surprised to learn that it was a Cavalli as the style is so retro and posh. But I couldn’t but fall in love with it’s iconic shape, the stripes being perfect for a stroll by the sea. I paired the look to black accessories and these stunning Gucci sunnies to accentuate the Brigitte Bardot kind of feeling of this outfit. Of course, Chopard jewels to add a touche of sparkle and magic in the air…

Quel tact Kristina, James. J'aime cette façon dont vous dévoilez la beauté et surtout l'harmonie que tu dégages Kristina, c'est si raffraichissant et naturel. Vois tu j'ai commencé à lire ton blog en novembre dernier et mon copain un jour s'est intéressé à savoir sur quel (le seul) blog je me délectais si souvent... Et voilà qu'il me dit: ''oh mais c'est Kristina Bazan! comment ça? Tu la connais? Mais oui vite fait, on était au gymnase ensemble''. Comme ce monde suisse est petit n''est ce pas? En tout cas je te souhaite que du bonheur là où tes ailes t'y mèneront. Tu es une femme de caractère et vas y que tu sais puiser de l'énergie pour aller toujours plus loin et avec une modestie que je reconnais si bien et qui charme. Merci pour cette élégance et ce style si simple et pourtant si classe. On ne peut qu'admirer. Tu es de ces rares femmes qui savent vivre intelligemment et toujours (oui bien sur c'est possible) avec goût! Voilà mon petit discours plein d'amour! take care. C

Dress, make up, bag, jewelery, hair - great. But combination with that heels is not good. I know contrast is interesting but in this time it does not work.

J'aime bien ce que tu dis sur les premières impressions, lors d'un voyage ou de la découverte d'un lieu, c'est vrai que ce n'est plus jamais pareil les fois d'après, mais c'est différent, il y a une sorte de familiarité qui rassure aussi, comme un autre "chez soi" dans lequel on revient...
http://roxierocks.over-blog.comJ'en profite et je vais me permettre ici de te dire que j'aime particulièrement l'évolution de ce blog. J'ai été tenté d'arrêter de le suivre plus d'une fois par le passé parce que je n'y trouvais pas la touche personnelle que j'aime dans un blog, je trouvais ton "personnage" trop innaccessible, et ce moment où j'ai failli partir a correspondu au moment où tu as commencé à plus t'ouvrir, à nous faire partager plus tes ressentis et l'envers du décor de Kayture, même de certains moments difficiles (C'est aussi le moment où je t'ai rencontrée par hasard à Famous Ape à Genève cet hiver). Enfin, j'y ai trouvé une touche plus intéressante qui m'a faite rester. L'image impeccable "papier glacée" ne sont pas les choses que je préfère ici, c'est plus ton parcours et l'inspiration pour les looks.
par ailleurs, je trouve l'évolution vraiment extra, ce "newkayture"... impatiente de voir la suite, et impatiente de tenir ton livre entre mes mains.
Belle continuation !

I wouldn't guess never that this dress is from Roberto Cavalli! When I think on him, I usually think in prints like leopard or tropical, so it surprised me! However, this dress is so beautiful and fit in you perfectly, and I love how you paried with these lovely Valentino shoes (I admit that I'm not such a fan, but this one is a exception). For soure, it's one of my favorite outfits of you!
At the other hand, you need to know, Kristina, that since I read your healthy food's article I've been changing my food habits. I started today to eat more fruits and vegetables, instead of meat (in my house we eat it EVERY DAY... it's not good, I am right?). I'm pretty sure that by the time, my body will thank me for taking care of him. So, I need to thank you, Kristina. You inspired me to do it and I'm grateful. I love seeing your blog and read your posts, unlike the other bloggers that only write two or three lines like we don't like to read their experiences and coming only to see photos.
Have a nice weekend, lady.
P.S: I can't wait to see the photos when you wore these AMAZING dresses (the cream one and the vampire one) of Elie Saab. When I saw you in these dresses, I loved it... so much.
