This latest partnership with Louise et Cie landed us at the Four Seasons in Nevis last week.  My favorite kinds of projects are ones like this, consisting of breathtaking backdrops and of course, a brand that easily harmonizes with my existing style.  Our small plane flew us into St. Kitts before we hopped on a boat to the lush island of Nevis.  To be honest, I’ve never heard of the destination until this project, but I welcome all places that include pina coladas, fresh seafood, and endless beach views with open arms.

The small island in the Caribbean did not disappoint.  Spanning from beautiful villas on the hillside to the beach front cabanas, this stretch of Nevis Four Seasons gave us everything we needed.  Most mornings began with either golf or tennis and a visit to the sauna, afternoons were spent in the ocean or lounging in our cabana, and each evening ended with drinks at the Library Bar or a local spot.  Every moment relaxed and filled with laughter and new memories.  We ended up not only having this gorgeous backdrop to shoot, but discovered some of the freshest seafood and met some of the most genuine people.

I  paired my summertime favorites with some accessories I picked out from the latest Louise et Cie collection.  My favorite octagon bag took me from cabana casual in a one-piece bathing suit to early evening strolls along the beach, and every detail playing up the various ensembles.  From neutral lace-up sandals and slides, to structured accent bags and fringe, each piece elevated my look, giving even the most casual beach attire a touch of luxe throughout each day and night.
