These days I am more aware of the time passing by than I have ever been before. I had the impression that yesterday was Monday, but it’s already the end of the week, and time is so fleeting. The only constant these days is how much time I have been devoting to taking care of myself. It has become part of the routine to mask and to take the time to apply all the creams and serums ...

This summer I have been mostly wearing earthy tones, linens and lighter shades, and effortless pieces―not following trends, but always choosing wearable pieces every season.
