AL VECCHIO PORCO

AS ONE OF MY SICILIAN BEST FRIENDS, GIULIA, GOT HER DEGREE IN CULTURAL - LINGUISTIC MEDIATION YESTERDAY (BRAVO!!!), WE ALL WENT TO DINNER AT "AL VECCHIO PORCO" (THE TRANSLATION IN ENGLISH IS NOT THAT EASY... I'D SAY: THE OLD DIRTY PIG...). IT IS A TYPICAL MILANESE RESTAURANT IN CHINATOWN, WHERE YOU CAN EAT ALL SORTS OF DELICIOUS TYPICAL DISHES. I HAD SOME RISOTTO, GIULIA HAD A KNUCKLE OF PORK WITH BAKED POTATOES AND ANNA HAD A COTOLETTA ALLA MILANESE (VEAL CUTLET IN BREADCRUMBS). WE HAD ALSO AN AMAZING WHITE WINE, A 2005 GEWURZTRAMINER ABBAZIA DI NOVACELLA THAT GOT ME DRUNK IN FIVE SECONDS. AND THEN A CHOCOLATE HOT CAKE. SIMPLY DIVINE. HERE ARE SOME PICTURE I TOOK THERE. IT'S SO FUNNY BECAUSE THE PLACE IS FULL OF PIG IMAGES! I STRONGLY RECOMMEND IT!

THE GRAFFITI ON THE WALL SAYS: "OLD IS COOL, PIG IS BETTER". LOVE IT!

I WANNA BE WHERE THE BOYS ARE

I AM SURE YOU ALL KNOW ABOUT THE RUNAWAYS, AN ALL-GIRL ROCK BAND THAT PERFORMED IN THE 1970's. OR MAYBE, YOU JUST KNEW, AS A NEW FILM ABOUT THEM HAS BEEN RELEASED IN THE US ( GOD KNOWS WHEN IT'S GOING TO BE IN ITALY...).

THEY WERE FORMED EXACTLY IN 1975, BY DRUMMER SANDY WEST AND GUITARIST JOAN JETT (MY FAVOURITE!). THEN THEY MET SINGER AND BASSIST JACKIE FOX, GUITARIST LITA FORD (AT THE TIME SHE WAS JUST 16 YEARS OLD) AND LEAD SINGER CHERRIE CURRIE AND STARTED TO PERFORM IN LOS ANGELES.

WHAT I LIKE THE MOST ABOUT THEM IS THE TEENAGE ATTITUDE AND THAT AMAZING AND AUTHENTIC 70'S LOOK. THEY JUST LET ME THINK ABOUT SUPER GIANT PLATFORM SHOES, BELL-BOTTOM JEANS AND T SHIRTS.

WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT THE NEW FILM COMING... I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED ABOUT KRISTEN STEWART AS JOAN JETT. JOAN HAD A GREAT PERSONALITY AND WE ALL KNOW WE CANNOT SAY THE SAME FOR THE STARLETTE OF TWILIGHT SAGA... SHE IS THE CLASSIC ACTRESS WHO WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A PERSONAL STYLE AND BE ALTERNATIVE, BUT CAN ONLY WEAR A CHEAP DRESS WITH CONVERSE ALL STAR ON THE RED CARPET (OH MY GOD, NO.) SO A ZERO ++ TO KRISTEN. ON THE CONTRARY, DAKOTA FANNING SEAMS TO BE PERFECT FOR THE ROLE OF CHERIE.

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE FILM AND DO A PROPER COMMENT, BY THE WAY. ONE THING IS SURE, THE ORIGINAL ONES WERE THE BEST.

SIMON EKRELIUS

WHILE I AM AT MY OFFICE, I ALWAYS WATCH A THOUSAND WEBSITES ABOUT FASHION, PHOTOGRAPHY AND SO ON - IT'S PART OF MY JOB, ANYHOW. THAT'S HOW I MET THIS AMAZING DESIGNER, SIMON EKRELIUS. HE WAS BORN IN STOCKHOLM, WHERE HE STUDIED FASHION DESIGN AND ILLUSTRATION. HE STARTED HIS OWN HAUTE COUTURE LABEL IN 1998 AND THE READY-TO-WEAR, IN 2006. HIS PARTICULAR AND UNIQUE PRINTS HAVE BECOME HIS SIGNATURE, AND I MUST SAY I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THAT. HIS AW11 COLLECTION, "STARDUST", HAS A VERY STRUCTURED SILHOUETTE AND THE MATERIALS, SILK MAROCAINE AND SILK ORGANZA, MAKE EVERYTHING MORE SPARKLING AND IMPALPABLE. I REALLY LIKE MOST OF THE IMAGES, SOME ARE A LITTLE BIT TOO FASHION FOR MY TASTE, BUT THEY LOOK GOOD ENOUGH.

I'M BACK

HI EVERYONE! I' M SO SORRY I HAVEN'T UPDATED THE BLOG BUT I HAVE BEEN IN CHINA, VISITING MY BEST FRIEND SARA AND ALMOST ALL THE WEBSITE ARE BLOCKED THERE (EVEN FB)!

SO I WILL SHARE EVERYTHING FROM MY TRIP THIS WEEKEND.

IN THE MEANTIME BELOW PICTURES OF MY LITTLE SOUVENIR: SEMI-PERMANENT LASHES. I KNOW IT'S A KIND OF TRASHY BUT ALL THOSE CHINESE GIRLS WITH THEIR DOLL LOOKING EYES HAS CONVINCED ME TO GET FAKE EYELASHES.

THEY LOOK NATURAL, DON'T YOU THINK SO?
