Having just returned from a glorious holiday in St. Tropez at the YTL’s Muse Hotel. Everyone is so chic and glam and the entire scene is just so rosy or should I say rosé! Our Fashion Editor Kalliope Karella picks her fabulous and favorite haunts.
“La Place des Lices, open air market on Tuesday and Saturday from 8 to 1pm where you can buy delectable provençal specialties. On non-market day, sit at one of the many café’s that line the ‘Place’ and watch a lively game of Pétanque played for hours by locals. Shopping during the Market days, you get the best deals on cashmere, sexy tops and just about anything else. I like Gas Boutique for faux jewelry, La Tropezienne for hand made leather sandals, and ambling along the tiny streets near Le Vieux Port for small boutiques with quirky stuff.
Then it is off to the Beach Clubs for lunch and leisure – Club 55, the original of the beach clubs where notables gather for long leisure lunches, Niulargo’s, Key Largo and Le Migon on Pamplona Beach.
Love day trips on boats to the Ile du Levant, and lunch at Le Mas de Langoustier, and to Bastide Blanche on Ile de Porquerolles for a swim.
Breakfast and afternoon coffee at Senequier watching boats and people go by and at the Bar of Hotel Sube for perfect overview of the entire port. And when my darlings, Brando and Eduardo clamor for ice cream, we head to Glacier Barbarac.”
For what to wear to Club 55, we went to Tory Burch for her chic resort line. Being the only girl in the south of France wearing a one-piece suit can be daunting . . . so many thanks for this great one! And love the sheerness of this tunic as a cover-up.
