We’ve had a great Christmas, possibly eaten and drunk a little too much, and now everyone is talking about dieting, fasting and New Years resolutions. But January can be a cold and dark month, and feeling pressured to cut back on everything doesn’t make it any easier. So instead of diet talk, why not put […]
The Ten Commandments of Authentic Beauty

Often when people find out that I have worked in the film, music and fashion industries for over 24 years, they promptly ask me what their favorite celebrities look like in person. Everyone wants the scoop on that surrealistic parallel world where perfection is seemingly the norm.

Bambäsch. It’s so obvious, isn’t it? And so close to the city. Pick a trail and make sure you don’t walk too fast, or you’ll miss the colours, the flowers, the woodpecker, the mushrooms… Be aware of people running like mad, they might be the Get Fit group – you may even wish to join […]

CLEW is at a bit of a loss here. Not that you can’t find nice clothes in Lux, but where are the special boutiques, and the feelgood factor…? Machines like H&M don’t provide that feeling, neither does the staff in certain places (quite the contrary, CLEW dares say). Or, as the local boulangère says it: “Toutes ces enseignes de luxe – il n’y a […]

There are places in town that will take you elsewhere… Cinemathèque, Place du Théâtre. A time travel, already when you enter the building and walk up the beautiful stairs to watch a classic movie. Even the cashier seems to belong to some other time. Cinema Paradiso for children Sundays at 15.00, open air cinema in […]
