Milan is one of my favorite cities for fashion and design, and I can say my closet is filled with all things “Made in Italy.” When I’m in Italy for work, the more is more mentality is reflected in the way I dress. It’s extravagant and a little over the top. Colors. Textures. It’s all about the glamour, especially when I feel like I’m starring in my own movie at the Bvlgari Hotel Milano. An absolutely perfect day in Milan begins with a massage and swim the the Bvlgari Hotel spa. An afternoon “Sciura Shop Tour” around the city to admire all the amazing luxury vintage inspired by the city’s chicest ladies. Dancing with my favorite Italians at Armani/PrivèClub. Ending with a very late night jazz show at The Wilde. Sleep can wait when you’re in Milan.

December at the BVLGARI Hotel Roma is like living in a movie. There was a real Christmas tree inside my suite, giving the entire space the aroma of pine and fir. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world getting to kick off the holiday season in true Italian style. BVLGARI Hotel Roma is a work of art. The details are just absolutely incredible from the beautiful marble baths to the private spas. The design intertwines the history of Rome like custom stonework and iconic statues finished with a new, modern touch. It’s glamorous, sensual, and a true gem in the heart of this incredible city.

// BVLGARI x Save the Children necklace //

A series of portraits to celebrate the BVLGARI x Save the Children collection this Giving Tuesday. Thank you BLVGARI for 10 amazing years of partnership with Save the Children. I am so excited to be a part of the #GiveHope campaign. There is nothing more important than a child’s potential and belief in themselves. A healthy childhood includes education, love, nurture, and self worth so that our children can grow into strong individuals with a voice and the idea that they can in fact have dreams and see them come to fruition in real life.

From a young age, my most prized possession was my public library card. I wanted to read, write, speak, and sing. I am so grateful for that library card which expanded my mind as a child and made me feel like I could be whoever I wanted to be. Having access to books and stories and the world empowered me. I believe there is nothing more valuable than a child’s potential and making sure they really see it in themselves.

You’ll find the charity’s emblem on the back of this beautiful necklace. For every piece sold, a part of the proceeds will be donated to the Save the Children organization to fund programs that support to the world’s most vulnerable children and young people.
