On the perfect summer day where
would we find you?
I would be somewhere beautiful
with a slight breeze, laughing and
having a good time with friends
and family. I don’t have a particular
place in mind, as I’m always
open to going to new places. As
long as it’s fun, I’m down.
Somewhere you’d love to travel to
this summer…
I would love to go to Scotland!
What is on your summer menu?
Mostly entertaining children, driving
children and working. Things
don’t really change that much for
me, summer or no. LOL
Your perfect summer outfit includes…
A beautiful maxi dress, light cute
cardigan and cute sandals.
What is your best childhood summer
memory?
Spending my time at a day camp
for the summer and going to a
bunch of fun places with them.

On the perfect summer day where
would we find you?
I’m either taking full advantage
of patio season in the city with
friends, or lounging in my backyard,
soaking up the sun, wearing
earbuds and reading a good
book.
Somewhere you’d love to travel to
this summer…
I’ve had Barcelona on my mind
ever since I travelled there two
summers ago. The fashion, the
restaurants, the architecture—a
place I’d love to experience
again. I’ve also had the itch to
experience Central Park in the
summer that I have yet to scratch.
What is on your summer menu?
Tacos, tacos, and more tacos—especially
fish tacos. I’m also looking
forward to drinking ice coffees
and stopping by ice cream shops.
Did I mention tacos?
Your perfect summer outfit includes…
A relaxed t-shirt dress is my summer
go-to item, it’s comfortable
and transitions from day to night
when you swap your espadrilles
for a pair of strappy heels. It also
wouldn’t be summer without my
floral scrunchie, an accessory I
always wear to save me from the
seasonal and longhair-induced
heat.
What is your best childhood summer
memory?
I grew up playing competitive
soccer with a team I played with
for almost 10 years. Nothing said
summer like the beginning of our
outdoor season, which almost
always featured a rewarding barbecue
after an exciting game.

On the perfect summer day where
would we find you?
I love picnics with a nice view, a
good book. Probably Mc Carren
Park in Brooklyn or DUMBO.
Drinking cucumber water with
lime and chia seeds and Murakami´s
book. That´s my perfect
combo.
Somewhere you’d love to travel to
this summer…
I really want to visit Cuba, probably
I´ll do it for my birthday ( Aug
29th). The whole experience of
music, amazing vintage cars and
hidden streets, combined with
charismatic people with great
style. Also I think it´s a very inspiring
place to visit to take ideas for
future fashion editorials.
What is on your summer menu? Tropical
cocktail fruits! I´m always eating
or snacking fruits, and during
this season it´s a MUST! I´m also
learning interesting recipes to mix
and match ingredients to make
healthy smoothies that taste like
ice cream and sorbets.
Your perfect summer outfit includes…
Accessories! Hats, bandanas and
of course sunglasses. That´s the
key for a cool look. Extra accents
with simple elements like a cute
bandana around your wrist or vintage
jewelry... Always, no matter
what, take risks and trust your
DNA style!
What is your best childhood summer
memory? Spending aaaall day
wearing swimsuits. Since day one
of the school year ending, I used
to wear my bathing suit no matter
where we were : City, beach,
hotel pool, supermarket or my
home, that was my definition of
vacation... definitely lots of sun
screen and ice cream!

On the perfect summer day where
would we find you?
I’ll be definitely outside! I would
either be shooting cute kids
somewhere in the city, chilling on
one of beautiful beaches in New
Jersey, or getting away from it all
on Fire Island. But ideally, I would
have the best of both worlds, with
a beach photo shoot and then
relaxing there afterwards.
Somewhere you’d love to travel to
this summer…
Travel is my other passion, after
photography. I’m planning to see
few places in the States: Los Angeles,
Las Vegas, maybe Niagara.
I would love to go back to San
Francisco as well. I’ve absolutely
fallen in love with that amazing
place!
What is on your summer menu?
I’m a veggies-lover. I love salads,
and I eat even more greens and
berries during the summertime.
And of course I can’t forget the
fresh seafood and ice cream.
Your perfect summer outfit includes…
I can’t imagine a hot summer
without colorful linen shirts,
sandals, tunics and shorts. But
to be honest,I also love beautiful
dresses with heels, though at
times they can seem impractical.
What is your best childhood summer
memory?
Running away from grandma’s
house with my little brother and
cousins to a nearby lake where
we swam and played all day, until
someone said that our grandma
had come looking for us. Of
course, we were scolded when
we returned (but not for real, you
know how grandma’s are). Then
eating fresh berries and peaches
from the garden for dinner.. It was
always so much fun.. And now
when I look back, I realize how
wonderful of a childhood we had!
