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.

What detail of a shoe draws your attention? Maybe a tall hell or an original design.
What do you say of these shoes that walked the runway for spring 2013??  I'm a little bit confused.
Did designers make these shoes intentionally ugly? Will they really get  into production and who is going to wear them?
In order to create something new, designers have to explore new paths and maybe go beyond good taste?
Sometimes shoes look weird at  first but then they find a way into people's heart, will it happen with these shoes?
What do you think? Would you wear any of these shoes?

Quale dettaglio vi conquista in una scarpa? Forse il tacco alto o un design originale. Che ne dite di queste scarpe che hanno calcato le passerelle della stagione estiva? 
Socondo me sono colpevoli, colpevoli di bruttezza intenzionale. Chissà, forse per offrire ai nostri occhi qualcosa di nuovo i designer devono esplorare nuove strade e forse spingersi oltre il limite del buon gusto.
Alcuni design ci mettono un po' ad affermarsi ma poi conquistano il cuore dei consumatori. Ce la faranno anche queste scarpe? E voi che ne pensate? Indossereste queste scarpe?

Versus spring 2013

No half measures: hot pink, electric blue, red and yellow these are the strong colors of Versus spring 2013 collection. The main theme? Chains printed on dresses and used as decorative element. They are sewed around collars, on bags and shoes , they are necklaces, belts and then cover entire pieces of clothing like tops and skirts. Plastic chains are colored and light weighted; they can be a wonderful element to create a spring accessory.

 Fucsia, blu elettrico, rosso giallo:colori accesi senza mezze misure per la collezione primaverile di Versus.
Tema principale della collezione? Le catene riprodotte sulle stampe degli abiti ma soprattutto utilizzate come elemento decorativo. Adornano colletti, scarpe, borse, cinte poi diventano vere e proprie collane e cinte fino a ricoprire interamente top e gonne. Christopher Kane ci offre molti spunti per il fai da te. Le catene in plastica, leggere e colorate ben si prestano a diventare degli splendidi accessori per l'estate.

bag decorated with mother of pearl buttons.

The Fendi  new baguette bag is covered with beads and sequins. When I saw the colored version I thought that it would be fun to make a DIY version of it using small colored buttons. You can look for shirt buttons in your stash or buy them in bulk on internet, they're pretty inexpensive.

La nuova baguette di Fendi è ricoperta di paillettes e perline. La versione colorata ci offre lo spunto per un divertente fai da te: perchè non decorare una borsetta con dei piccoli bottoni? I bottoni per camicie andranno benissimo, cercateli nela vostra scatola del cucito o comprateli in stock su internet li troverete a prezzi vantaggiosi.

Time for fashion weeks. Get inspired by the coolest looks for spring 2013.

Take a look to Just Cavalli fashion show. You'll discover a contemporary collection for a young cosmopolitan woman. What make this collection so up-to-date is a mix between style and functionality. Clothes are original and easy to wear. The see through shirts are modern and reflect a look that can be considered worldwide cool. I can see a an italian and an american woman both happy to wear this collection.
Get inspiration from the jacket with tulle inserts to update your wardrobe to spring 2013.


Tempo di fashion weeks. Fatevi ispirare dai look più cool per la primavera 2013.


Vi consiglio di guardare lo show di Just Cavalli che ci propone una collezione molto contemporanea per una donna giovane e cosmopolita. Ciò che rende questa collezione così attuale è il mix tra stile e funzionalità. I capi sono speciali ma facili da indossare. Le camicie trasparenti sono chic e moderne e  rispecchiano un look considerato cool a livello mondiale. Credo che una sia una donna italiana che una newyorkese sarebbero felici di indossare questa collezione di Just Cavalli.
Ispiratevi alla giacca con inserti in tulle per aggiornare il vosto guardaroba alla primavera 2013.

 60's and graphical

moschino, fay, mfw,milano fashion week
First from left Moschino - 3 looks from Fay
We're back to the sixthies at Moschino and Fay. They play with graphical effects, vertical lines and black and white contrasts. The color contrast pockets are on almost all Fay's dresses. The pastel colors chosen are all irresistibles, the melon orange is my favorite, energetic and refreshing.


Ispirazione anni sessanta per Moschino e Fay che giocano con effetti grafici, linee verticali, contrasti bianco e nero. Bellissime le tasche e pattine a contrasto, scelte da Fay come filo conduttore della collezione. Tutti irresistibili gli abiti nei toni pastello, impossibile sceglierne solo uno, forse il mio preferito è quello arancio melone, colore estivo e rinfrescante.


Perforated and Laser cut
