I WANT TO RIDE MY BICYCLE

SINCE SPRING IS FINALLY ARRIVED, ALL I WANT IS JUST A BEAUTIFUL BICYCLE TO RIDE IN THE SUNNY STREETS OF MILAN. I BOUGHT LIKE A BILLION VINTAGE BIKES SINCE I LIVE HERE, BUT THEY ALL GOT BROKEN ONE WEEK LATER... MAYBE TOO MUCH VINTAGE? I'D SAY TOTALLY OLD... ANYWAY, NOW I WANT A NEW ONE, FOR MEN, IN A BEIGE SHADE... I WENT TO SENIGALLIA FLEA MARKET BUT THEY JUST HAVE STOLEN ONES... AND, BETWEEN US, I DON'T WANT TO BE STOPPED ON THE STREETS BY THE OWNER... SO, IF ANYBODY KNOWS ABOUT COOL BIKE SHOP IN MILAN, NOT TOO MUCH EXPENSIVE, PLEASE SEND ME AN E MAIL!












PS REBECCA IS IN SHANGAI RIGHT NOW. LUCKY HER!

ROUGE COCO

CHANELS COMMERCIAL ARE SOME KIND OF FAIRYTALES.
I WISH I COULD JUMP IN THOSE INTENSE SHORT MOVIES AND BE THE CHARACTER OF THE MAGIC AND SENSUAL MOMENTS CREATED BY COCOS MAISON.
WE ARE NOT SUCH BIG FANS OF VANESSA PARADIS BUT I HAVE TO ADMIT THAT SHE IS VERY CUTE IN THIS ROUGE COCO FILM AND SHE IS EVEN TIED WITH THE MAISON AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE DOCUMENTATION BELOW.
ENJOY THE SHOWS!

1992 VANESSA PARADIS FOR COCO PARFUME







SOME OF THE LIPSTICKS NAMES: CASHMERE, BEIGE FELINE, MADEMOISELLE, CAMELIA, CAMBON, BEL RESPIRO, BALLET RUSSE, BOISE DES ILES

MARNI AW 10

AN ITALIAN PROVERB SAYS "MEGLIO TARDI CHE MAI" (=BETTER LATE THAN EVER) AND I THINK IT FITS REALLY THIS CASE. I HAVE BEEN LATELY SO BUSY WITH WORK AND I HAVE BEEN EVEN SICK...BUT IT'S BETTER THAT I DON'T GO DEEPER IN THOSE DETAILS. LET'S SPEAK INSTEAD OF ONE OF THE SHOWS THAT HAS MOST IMPRESSED ME DURING THE MILAN FASHION WEEK: MARNI. I HAVE TO SAY THAT CONSUELO CASTIGLIONI NEVER DISAPPOINT MY EXPECTATION. I WANT TO GIVE MORE SPACE TO THE PICTURE THAN TO MY WORDS: THEY SHOW YOU OBJECTIVELY THE BEAUTY OF THIS FALL WINTER 2010/2011 COLLECTION.
MAGNIFICA CONSUELO!

THESE PATTERNS ARE GREAT IN THE GRAPHICS AND IN THE COMBINATION OF THE COLORS.



COLOR AND TEXTURE COMBINATIONS: PERFETTO!


BLACK IS BLACK: THE CUT ON THE BACK IS USED FOR SEVERAL DRESSES AND THE SEE-TROUGH EFEFCT GIVES AN ELEGANT SEXINESS


THE SHOES: MY FAVORITE PART




AMAZING "NONNAS" GLASSES



THANKS TO GIOTTO CASTIGLIONI

DETAILS FROM BYBLOS AND MILA SCHON


HERE COMES SOME DETAILS FROM THE MILA SCHON AND BYBLOS CATWALKS. TO BE HONEST I HAVE JUST THIS FEW PICTURES BECAUSE I FINISHED THE BATTERY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SHOWS. THAT'S QUITE TYPICAL OF ME, I ALWAYS FORGET SOMETHING ESSENTIAL WHEN I HAVE TO REPORT  INTERESTING EXPERIENCES. 

REBECCA, REBECCA IN WONDERLAND... 

BUT FORTUNATELY I GOT THE DETAILS THAT CAUGHT MY ATTENTION. 

BYBLOS  PROPOSE A WARRIOR WOMAN. SHE WEARS ARMOUR COATS AND METALLIC HEAD COVERING. THE DETAILS GIVE SUCH A STRONG PERSONALITY TO THE MODEL THAT THEY DON'T NEED ANY KIND OF MAKE UP.


MILA SCHON COMBINES SUBTLE COLORS WITH BRIGHT COLORS, A SWEET AND DYNAMIC WOMAN AT THE SAME TIME; I'M NOT A FAN OF COLOR FULL CLOTHES BUT THIS IS A BALANCE THAT I REALLY LIKE. THE LOOK IS COMPLETED BY ARCHITECTURAL HATS.
