celebrate the now.

New Year’s Eve is the perfect excuse to put on your dancing heels, extra sparkly earrings and pop open a bottle of champagne – but why only celebrate one day of the year? Personally, I usually prefer to spend NYE at home with good food and even better company. Instead of putting lots of pressure on a specific day of the year, I think we should all learn to celebrate the now more often. Which is exactly what we did the week before Christmas: 8 girls, some Moët & Chandon, confetti everywhere and outfits that involved a lot of tulle, velvet and sequins. I love the fact that I have gotten to know so many inspiring and fun girls in Vienna over the years. Nowadays it seems that women empowering each other has become a rare thing. With this group, it is safe to say that we truly appreciate the others’ talents, creativity and style. We love to work together, so when we all had a spare day before the holidays, we called up our favorite photographer Patrick and got together to celebrate the moment at the beautiful Park Hyatt in the heart of Vienna. The result are some of my favorite images of the year and a whole lot of festive outfit inspiration for you guys just in time for New Year’s Eve!
