I am a fan of Temperley and loved her SS16 Show. It was filled with an exuberant sense of colour, pattern and rhythm. She took inspiration in Cuba and the forbidden yet tempting fantasy of island life. Her collection encompasses day to evening in a vivacious and animated manner whilst being confident, joyful and ultra feminine. All things that ASSYA loves!
For the occasion I wore a stunning Temperley Jacket and skirt accessorised with Assya new season Bullet double ring, Bullet bangle and Lost Crystal bangle.
Last week Ninfa and I had the pleasure of visiting the Biennale des Antiquares, in the Grand Palais, where some of the top Fine Jeweller’s from around the world presented their collections. It was a showcase of mouth-watering jewels one more beautiful than the other, we could barely contain our excitement and our inspiration was endless.
Biennale des Antiquaires
Each Jewellery house created exclusive collections especially made for the Biennale, Dior, Chanel, Graff, Bulgari, Cartier, Van Cleef…it was hard to choose!
One of our favourites however is the new Haute Couture inspired collection by DIOR. Exquisite in design and unique in creation.
Our mouths watered when we saw the beautiful Graff Watch encrusted with precious jewels and their diamond tassel necklace.
We also loved the Chanel ring collection inspired by the stars.

In terms of display, the Bulgari retro inspired room was a winner alongside the Boucheron flower windows!

After all this jewellery lusting we were invited to the Chanel boutique for Vogue’s Fashion Night out, Paris, where we took our mind off the diamonds with some champagne!

If you happen to be in Paris
The best place to eat is…
Hotel Costes. With an enchanting courtyard, it has some of the best people watching in Paris!
My signature dish when in Paris is…
A fine Apple tart with Ice Cream. The best!
Assya’s Arrow collection aspires to assert the individual and the unique.
Rebellious chic with spiky sophistication, the arrow collection is Assya’s most cutting edge collection yet.
The collection shows the signature ribbed design in a more delicate form, finely set with white diamonds, brown diamonds and coloured gemstones.
White diamonds are set in black rhodium on rose gold vermeil to create a sharp contrast whilst brown diamonds and pink tourmaline are set on gold vermeil. Vibrant multi-coloured stones are set in black rhodium and gold vermeil.
Each setting is unique in its beauty and will give a different allure to the wearer.
