POSTCARD FROM CHÂTEAU D'ŒX

I had seen pictures of the annual hot air balloon festival that takes place in Château-d’Oex, but other than that, it was a magical unknown location for me. If you have always dreamt of a balloon flight to take in the Alpine views, this would be the place to go!

I flew to Zurich and then switched two trains in order to arrive to the final destination.

Château-D’Oex, from the town of Montreux on Lake Geneva is an unforgettable magical train ride. You should choose the Belle Époque Train which runs between Montreux and Zweisimmen. It is a train like no other and will make you feel like you are on an old grand Orient Express rail journey. The 1930s style and elegance relives in this exquisite train.

I loved this trip - the mountain scenery, the feeling of speeding down the slopes, lunch stops up among the clouds and après ski drinks by the fire. Everything was ideal!

I did the Gacier Walk and I couldn't feel my feet after 3pm. It was also -16 degrees! 

Connecting two mountain peaks, the suspension bridge on the Glacier 3000 is a world first – and the perfect spot to enjoy truly stunning views of the Alps. 

I always loved the combination of snow and teddy texture, and that’s why I decided to design two crop teddy coats to have with me in this trip. The Emma Crop Jacket and the Lema Teddy Crop Jacket completed every look.
