CASTING TIME

Picking the outfit for castings is not easy: in five minutes you got to communicate something not just speaking aloud but also through your look. So every time I have a casting I got to figure out what character they are looking for and to try then to look pretty much alike someone I don't actually know.

This is the last look from the last casting I have done yesterday morning.
dress: Marni/jacket: Zara/shoes: Jfk/bag: Adidas






I have smoothed my hair, I have done my eyeliner makeup, I have had my coffee, and I went.
I forgot  to wear my mask and I was exactly how I am always. I missed out being the character I thought they were looking for and instead I have been myself. I don't know if I am going to be picked for this job but at least if this will happen I will be choosen for who I am.

Stay yourself

TIME FOR PRESENTS (part 1)

I can't resist when I see all these makeups in beautiful packages waiting to be wrapped up for presents.
Presents shouldn't be just for other people but also for ourselves. I love when I feel I deserve to buy something special for myself and I ask the shop assistant  to wrap it in colourful paper and ribbons.
(I have done the same also at Tiffany's!) .
Can you imagine unwrapping all these sparkling and precious palettes? A moment of pure joy.

TRAMPLING ON YELLOW LEAVES

Trampling on yellow leaves is one of the best thing to do during autumn time, isn't it? Hearing that beautiful and warm sound of leaves crackin under the boots reminds me a lot when I was a child and I pretended  those heaps were like a sea and I was a sailor.

Now that I'm a grown up things haven't change that much. I still love that sound and that feeling, the only thing I am aware of is that with better shoes the sound is even sweeter and the memory will last forever.

Stay trampling
Stay happy

AAA: NEW PERSONAL STYLIST IS REQUIRED FOR RIHANNA

I won't use a lot of words to describe my disappointment regarding Rihanna's latest choices of style. I would like just to say: Girl you are gorgeous, why are you trying your best to look so bad every time?
I can't understand it.
Here it's what I'm referring to:
 Non voglio dilungarmi più di tanto per descrivere quanto le ultime scelte in fatto di stile di Rihanna siano state tremende. Vorrei solo dire: "ragazza sei bellissima , ma perchè ce la stai proprio mettendo tutta per stare male ogni volta? Non riesco a capirti."
Ecco a cosa mi riferisco:

(X-Factor Italia)

Are you out of your mind?? I don't know where to start: why? why did you want to wear a diaper? and the boots worsen even more the complete outfit and the shape of your body! Maybe it's time to fire your personal stylist and finding a new one.
 Ma cosa ti ha detto la testa? Non so neanche da dove partire: perche? Perchè hai voluto indossare un pannolino? e gli anfibi peggiorano il tutto e la forma del tuo corpo! Forse è ora di licenziare il tuo personal style e trovarne uno nuovo.




(David Letterman Show)

She seems to be very fond of panties. I read somewhere this is a Dolce and Gabbana' s creation, which confirms the main concecpt: style is not a matter of brands at all.
 Sembra che le piacciono molto le mutande. Ho letto da qualche parte che questa sia una creazione di Dolce e Gabbana, il che conferma il concetto base: lo stile non è una questione di firme.
I didn't mean to be rude but having a blog about style means also writing posts when there is lack of style. 
Non voglio risultare maleducata ma scrivere un blog in cui si parla di stile vuol dire anche scrivere quando quest'ultimo manca.

SUNDAY MORNING LEISURE

My cat woke me up early this Sunday morning, and even though I could spend more time sleeping, I got to admit that I kind of like it when it's Sunday, it's raining and there are no sound from the world outside. Just me, the coffee machine's mumble and my cat's purr.

All this reminds me of the beautiful pajamas and home-wear I've seen yesterday doing some window shopping in Rome. I like so much wearing soft, comfortable but still stylish leisure wear.
These are some of my favourite ones

Wool Leg warmers

The key-word is comfort  but also glamour...under a nice and warm blanket
Well, writing this post, I have finished my coffee. It's time to go to lit the fire-place and enjoying my Sunday with my husband. Rule #1 now: switching off my laptop.
Enjoy your Sunday as well.

ITALIAN MUSIC STAR

 For those who do not her and do not know her music I would like to introduce Carmen Consoli, the best known Italian cantantessa (female singer). It's from these days the release of her best of, and since I like her so much I wanted to write something about her but especially about her style. Not only I adore her music but I think her style is unique, a mixture of romantic and rock, with some hints of retro and glamour. She is gorgeous, don't you think?

Per tutti coloro che non la conoscono e non conoscono la sua musica, vi presento Carmen Consoli, la cantantessa italiana per eccellenza. Esce proprio in questi giorni la sua raccolta dei successi, e essendo io una sua fan sfegatata ho deciso di scrivere qualcosa su di lei soprattutto da un punto di vista "stilistico". Non solo adoro la sua musica ma trovo che abbia uno stile favoloso, da cui prendere ispirazione: un mix di romanticismo e rock, con qualche accenno retrò e glamour. E' magnifica, non credete?








Her best of was release on November 16, the same date of my mom's birthday...this the live perfomance of Carmen of "In bianco e nero" dedicated to her mother (check the golden trousers out: Ilovethem!!!)

Il suo best of "per niente stanca" è uscito il 16 novembre, lo stesso giorno del compleanno di mia madre: questa è la sua perfomance di "in bianco e nero", canzone dedicata a sua madre (ma i pantaloni dorati non sono stupendi: Ilovethem!!!)

HELLO KITTY+REEBOK=TOKYO

How I envy those who live in Tokyo. Why? Because they can get the Plush Kitty Reebok! When I saw them on Vanity Fair I couldn't help myself from adoring them: j'adore Hello Kitty (like all those in their 30's but that still can't live with the fact!) and j'adore Reebok (like all in their 30's because we remember wearing Reebok shoes at school!)

They are all made out of faux fur...aren't they over the edge? I love them! Should I get a ticket to Tokyo? Eh, you can call me superficial, I know, but it's not my fault if I fall for a red fluffy ribbon...

Stay plushy
