The Maldives is one of those places that almost doesn’t feel real turquoise waters melting into the sky, sunsets that look hand painted, and a peace that sinks into your skin. During this trip, I was lucky enough to dive into a mood of beauty, calm, and a whole lot of style. The outfits I chose reflect just that: lightness, femininity, and always that personal touch.
Sunset Look
One of my favorite moments? When the sun starts to drop and everything turns gold.
I wore a cream colored long chemise by Hôtel Particulier. Ultra-soft silk satin with delicate Chantilly lace it felt like it was made for that light. On my feet, the iconic gold Hermès Oran sandals (no introduction needed), and my trusty micro Gucci Jackie bag for a vintage-chic accent.
Dinner Look Under the Stars
Barefoot dinners on the sand, waves whispering in the background – I needed something romantic but effortless. I picked an embroidered mini skirt by Zanetti, with floral details and delicate side ties. Paired it with a basic Skims top and flat Alohas sandals. Simple, but with personality.
Cocktail Hour.
For cocktails by the ocean, I wore the Marga mini dress by Costarellos featherlight printed georgette with a flattering yet easy silhouette.
I already loved it at first try-on, but seeing it flow in the Maldivian breeze was next-level. Once again, I reached for my Hermès Oran sandals this time in Jaune Topaz. The bag? A camel leather crossbody with gold hardware minimal and refined.
My Birthday Look
For my birthday dinner, I wanted something truly special. I chose the Aspasia halterneck gown by Costarellos, crafted in pure apricot-colored silk. Romantic and flowing.
I paired it with brown kitten heels from and this sculptural Destree bag in deep chocolate leather. And for a spontaneous switch-up, I threw on my gold Orans... because why not?
Golf Car Sunset Ride
One surreal moment: driving a golf cart through the resort during golden hour, music playing from my phone. I
wore wide-leg pleated pants by Tory Burch in chocolate linen shantung, a basic white cotton tank, and a mix of necklaces the long gold Tory “Roxanne” and a few colorful Italian shell chokers. Comfort, color, detail – perfectly me.
This trip was everything: a much-needed slow down, a moment to reconnect, and yes, an excuse to wear some of my favorite pieces. I can’t wait to go back. Maybe with a few more looks to share, who knows?
