PARK HYATT MILANO

Pictures by James Vyn
HIGH STYLING IN ITALY One of our favourite things about travelling, and I say we because James and I both show a big interest in it, is discovering new treasure spots. Whether it's an architectural landmark, a fusion restaurant, a spa or a hotel like in this case. We already have an amazing partnership with the Park Hyatt in Zürich, their team makes us feel like home even if we are far away. And as the PH in Milano is situated right next to the Gelleria Vittorio Emanuele, I couldn't avoid but spot the place and want to discover it from the inside.

Like I told you, this hotel has probably the most amazing location possible in Milan, right next to the luxury shops of the Gelleria and 5 minutes away from one of the best Gelateria in Milan, I am talking about Grom of course. We had the chance to stay in one of their deluxe room during our trip to Milan and enjoyed every second of this pure luxury lifestyle experience The interior of the rooms is set in warm and peacefull shades, with stone details and flower embelishments. We had to order a little room serive to try out their food, and I highly advise you the ricotta raviolis (gotta eat pasta while in Italy!). Hop on the little tour!

SOMEBODY STOLE THE WALLPAPER

CARVEN PERFECTION To answer the subject regarding the title : I did, because it felt perfect as a design for a dress (or may I say skirt and top ensemble). No actually, I am just messing around. Here's the real story, as you guys might now I am a 100% into timeless pieces, classic yet edgy elegance and pure chic. But when it comes to exciting prints, I just can't resist. So when I first saw this ensemble from Carven on My Wardrobe, my instant reaction was : ''challenge accepted''.

What I love about fashion, is that there are no rules, the goal is pleasure. I like to have fun with my looks and try new things out (highly suggest you to do the same, feels really good). I thought that the print of this ''dress'' was stunning, totally reminded me of those crazy wallpapers you can find in old baroque tea rooms in Paris, or some vintage shops. Not many accessories were needed to finish the look, it looked already quite great simply as it is and believe me, I tried the top with some black leather jeans and it looks ah-may-zing.

RANDA IN MILAN

Pictures by James Vyn
GOLDEN HOUR Yes guys, here we are in Milan for a couple of days. Simply to hop on a couple of meetings and work on some exciting projects we are currently developping, can't wait to tell you more about everything. Italy is definitely one of my favourite places to be, I feel like it's such an opened culture : so vivid and friendly. Now don't get me starter on the food subject, it's simply the best (my top favourite with japanese cuisine).

So this time as we had to walk a lot during the day, I had to find something comfortable yet chic to wear as I knew we were going to shoot pictures. And well, it's not like you can put flats in this tiny Gucci clutch. So I picked out these awesome wedges from Randa, a japanese brand I currently spotted and liked right away for it's bold designs and comfortable yet fun pumps. Have a look at their website here, I'm sure you'll love it too ;)

A DAY WITH LOUIS VUITTON

Pictures by James Vyn
HIGH STYLE This article is going to be a little bit different than usual, but new is always good isn't it? Since months, James and I have been talking about a new category for Kayture, something even more inspirational and informative. We love shooting fashion pictures but since we get to travel that much and work with so many amazing labels, we thought that it could be the perfect occasion to share insider stories with you, focusing on lifestyle, luxury, travel and all good things. May I introduce you to the ''high style'' category. Our trip to Paris with Louis Vuitton was the perfect occasion to launch this new concept as the purpose of the experience was to get to know ther history and heritage better.

I was extremely impressed by how rich and interesting the story of Louis Vuitton and it's debut is. I mean, most of us only know LV's modern ''Marc Jacobs'' period, but there's so much more behind it. We spent the day with their team, starting with a visit of their ''Cabinet D'écriture'' located at Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Gustave Vuitton, the grandson of Louis was born with an illness and decided to put all his energy and efforts into knowledge, litterature and arts. Interests that you can see reflected in the label as Vuitton specialises not only in fashion, but also in luxury office suplies. From paper, to ink and partnerships with french authors, the brand shows a really tight bond with the art of writing.

We enjoyed a delicious lunch at la ''La Société'' right next to the boutique. A very intimate restaurant, with an exquisite menu full of delicacies. I had to try their shrimp dumplings, but also highly suggest the spicy tuna and avocado tartar which was beyond any expectations. Later on, we headed to Asnières, where we drowned in the peacefull atmosphere of the Maison de famille Louis Vuitton, the very first house that the owner of the legendary label owned. It was incredible to see old archive paintings and pictures but also the architecture of the house which might have inspired Louis Vuitton day by day.

We ended the tour at the trunk manufacture where we admired the craftsmanship put into each Louis Vuitton luggage piece. Each and every worker knows perfectly it's move. We've seen some amazing special trunk orders (which we couldn't show you guys unfortunately due to clients privacy reasons) such as special barbie trunks, or tattoo trunks. But the interesting thing is that LV never does twice the same special trunk, they'll insit on creating a unique piece for their customer. They can basically build a trunk for  anything, the only limit is human and animal trunks (thank god). Enjoy the pictures folks!
