GATEWAY TO PARADISE: ST. REGIS PUNTA MITA

// Hollie Watman bikini // 

I love reconnecting with my roots with every single trip to Mexico. So far we’ve hit up the eclectic scene and beaches of Tulum along with the incredible food and history we found in Mexico City, where my grandfather is from. For this very much needed girl’s trip, we planned an escape to the stunning property of the St. Regis Punta Mita. It feels extra private, and we felt like we could unplug the moment we walked into our villa. It was exactly what we were looking for! Hidden behind large gates, Punta Mita is like it’s own little world. Punta Mita actually means “gateway to paradise” in Aztec. We were in town to shoot a few summer campaigns, but we still managed to plop down on a lounge chair, hit up the spa, get massages, and do our nightly ritual, soak in the hot tub after dinner. I honestly don’t find anything more relaxing than hearing the sounds of the waves as I crawl into bed each night. I’ve stayed at a few of the St. Regis properties around the world for work, like earlier this year in Rome with the Fendi team! What I love most is how each property stays so true to the local heritage from the architecture to the food. Guacamole please! But honestly, this was a real treat for us after what felt like the longest NYC winter of all time. Resort season is here and I can finally brush up on my Spanish.

SUSTAINABLE SHOES TO LOVE: ROTHY’S

Rothy’s Moroccan Teal Loafer

I am kicking off summer in my Rothy’s flats, the most easy-going, comfortable shoe I own that goes with my prettiest summer dresses. I spent a few days out in Sayulita, Mexico and the gorgeous resorts of Punta Mita. I planned to pack light. Flowing silk kimonos, beaded dresses, and bikinis. And I want a shoe that really goes with everything and allows me to be on my feet all day long. Rothy’s shoes are machine-washable and sustainable, each pair made with recycled water bottles and carbon free rubber. Rothy’s has diverted over 30 million single-use plastic water bottles from landfills, giving them a second life as these beautiful shoes. How incredible is that? It’s a brand that I believe in with such a powerful message and story. The plus is that they are totally cute, versatile, lightweight, and breathable. Just what I need under the hot Mexican sun. The patterns on my Rothy’s flats fit in with all the beautiful textiles I’ve been seeing in the little stores of this little surf town. Blues, greens, reds, and yellows. With every trip comes a story. This one was spent soaking in all things friendship, sisterhood, adventure, and finding new ways to take fashion and make a powerful statement. By celebrating summer with Rothy’s I want to spread the message that we should be a lot more conscious and how we travel, what we wear, and what we’re consuming. I now feel more aware of our planet with every single step.

MY PARIS UNIFORM | MULBERRY + CARTIER

Jacket worn as a top: Mulberry England. Pant and Trench coat: Mulberry England. Handbag: Cartier. Heels: Christian Louboutin. Sunglasses: Jacques Marie Mage.

Paris is currently buzzing with couture week and though I am actually stuck in NYC working on projects, I can’t help but do a quick flashback to my Paris uniform. I had just left a long brunch at the very elegant Apicius restaurant, soaking in all it’s beauty in the courtyard. It’s a spot I could stay at all, sipping a cappuccino and catching up with friends or simply lying down on the grass with a good book. Classically Parisian, yes? This is a look that will remain timeless and forever in my closet. It’s my version of the 3-piece suit. A little cropped jacket as a top, oversize flared trousers, and a really gorgeous and lightweight wool trench coat. This is a look that could easily be thrown on with beat-up leather combat boots, but for Paris, I always step it up a notch, slipping into a delicate Christian Louboutin mule and grabbing my Cartier Guirlande bag before heading out the door. It’s funny that wherever I go, I tend to adapt. I get inspired by the grand architecture, the gloomy weather that makes you want to curl behind a cup of coffee, and the effortless je ne sais quoi. Paris will always be a spot that I get to go back for work to. Short, but sweet, with a hectic schedule and a lot of jetlag. This year, I’ve been mentally preparing for my year of travels. I’m ready to see new places, new countries. I’m sure there are many more places that will give me the same amount of inspiration that Paris always does time and time again.

ONE DAY. THREE BIKINIS. AMAIÒ SWIM CRUISE 2019.

In a dream world, we’re living in bikinis with plenty of sunshine. For many of us New Yorkers, we’re constantly planning sunny getaways mid-winter and looking for only a handful of pieces to get us through the quick trip. Dylana and I take 3 AMAIÒ bikinis through one very sunny day in Los Angeles. Whether it be peeking through the shadows by the pool, blending in with the city’s incredible mountains, or ending my day biking to town for dinner, I made the one-piece swimsuit my multi-piece. AMAIÒ Swim is absolute luxury. I like to think of their one-pieces as bodysuits that work well beyond sunbathing by the pool. If I’m headed out on a warm getaway, I lean towards the classics. I love nudes, blacks, and whites. That with a giant pair of gold earrings of course. If you look closely at each piece from the AMAIÒ Cruise 2019 collection, you’ll notice mesh detailing, pleats, and stunning empire waistlines. This certainly isn’t your typical swimsuit. It’s a work of art. Now where in the world should we go to next?

Black swimsuit: AMAIÒ Swim. Nude swimsuit: AMAIÒSwim. White swimsuit: AMAIÒ Swim.
