This summer take your pajama out for a walk or get inspired by sophisticated loungewear. Delicate silks and wide pants are the key pieces of this chilli cool look that couldn't be more comfortable. Fabric whishes and floats as you walk. Hems are long and pants almost cover shoes, the waist is high, the target are extra long legs.

Gold shoes to die for

It's Monday again. You're at work with plenty of things to do, but with an eye outside the window. The weather is getting warmer and as the sun enlightens your workspace you're already picturing yourself on vacation. Big sunglasses and big smile, a floaty maxi dress and nothing to do but relax. Wait, what shoes are you planning to wear? If you've been too busy to check out some gorgeous spring shoes let me show you a few exciting pairs with something in common: gold details. I'm particularly taken by the designs with the metal plated heel. Sergio Rossi's shoes have a lot of things going on, colors, patterns and the gold plated heel, but all the elements work well together, they are an outstanding pair of shoes in my opinion. Zanotti never ceases to amaze and if you were tired of seeing studs everywhere (because they've been so popular for a couple of years now) well, you may change your mind watching Tom Ford's  "porcupine" studded wedges. They're awesome.


Di nuovo Lunedì. Siete a lavoro con mille cose da fare ma vi distraete guardando fuori dalla finestra. Basta un po' di sole che illumina la scrivania ed ecco che vi immaginate già in vacanza. Occhiali da sole, un vestito che vi accarezza le caviglie ad ogni passo e un bel sorriso di chi, senza pensieri può dedicarsi al relax. Aspettate un momento, che scarpe indosserete?  Ecco una selezione di scarpe estive con un comun denominatore: il dettaglio oro. Un particolare che, rispetto all'anno scorso è passato dalla punta al tacco. Stampa, colore e oro, le zeppe di Sergio Rossi sono un perfetto mix di trend estivi. Se non ne potete più delle borchie, perchè negli ultimi anni sono spuntate dappertutto, vi ricrederete guardando le zeppe firmate Tom Ford, un'irresistibile cascata di aculei dorati.

This winter my ankle cowboy boots took me everywhere. They are perfect with a pair of skinny jeans and a slightly oversized sweater. They give a touch of personality to a casual, relaxed outfit.
This spring we can dare a little bit more and incorporate in our wardrobe other few key items like fringed jackets and bags and  big buckles to evoke the cowboy look. See some inspiration below.

    Pastel hair have been all over the place for a while and I think they're cool but I'm not brave enough to dye my long hair pink. I was surprised to see on True blue me & you a tutorial on how to dye hair temporary. Read her advices because not anyone can do it successfully.  Quiana suggested on my facebook page to dye a wig, also a pain free solution, also hair clips could be dyed to obtain a shaded effect. I just remembered that talking about how to dip dye hair last year I had found a temporary hair color called color bug. It's a powder, you rub it on hair to color them and it goes away with a shampoo.

    Capelli nei colori pastello, un capriccio da togliersi con una tintura temporanea, su True blue me & you troverete un tutorial step by step. Leggete i suoi consigli perchè non tutti i capelli reagiranno allo stesso modo. Quiana suggerisce sulla mia pagina facebook di tingere color lavanda una parrucca, una buona idea che può anche essere sfruttata per le extensions. Un prodotto che tinge temporaneamente i capelli senza spiacevoli conseguenza è color bug, una polvere da spargere sui capelli che va via con uno shampo.

    Caught in the web: 4 new ways to wear the elegant veil

    On shades

     One accessory caught all the attention during Milan fashion week, it's the veil that added appeal and elegance to the look of show attenders. The thin net is back in fashion on Haute Couture catwalks and can be dressed down worn over sunglasses or beanies or dressed up with pulled back hair and sparkly sequins. This look is so easy to replicate that you have to try it at least once. The veil is sold in rectangular pieces and you can fasten it to your hat or your hair with a brooch just a moment before going out. Among these looks which one better suits your style?

    Il set degli scatti è la milano fashion week, la protagonista assoluta la veletta, la retina che veste il volto di mistero ed eleganza. Tornata di moda sulle passerelle di haute couture oggi si può indossare in versone casual, sul cappello di lana o sugli occhiali da sole, o elegante impreziosita con cristalli da Giorgio Armani. Un look da provare almeno una volta perchè veramente facile da replicare. Potete acquistare una veletta in merceria, è un rettangolo di retina a pois da appuntare sul cappello o sui capelli con una spilla prima di uscire. Quali di questi look si avvicina più al vostro stile?
