PLEATED SKIRT AND LAST DAYS IN MILAN

Pleated skirt. A sporty chic look because, as you know, I love contrasts. The last days of meetings and the last days in Milan. The next week I will be in Parma to pass Christmas holidays with my family. I can’t wait to spend some time with the people I love the most and that I can see less and less. Every year Christmas is more magic and I spend every free moment to find the gifts and lose in the shop windows Christmas atmosphere. And you, do you love Christmas or are you little Grinch?

BOYFRIEND STYLE

I always loved to take style inpirations from men (only for clothes!). I think that a boyfriend style with few feminine details give us a sexy and interesting allure. Do you agree? In this case I have choosen a grey look that I have broken up with a chic voile bodysuit. The situation? A “very important” job meeting of which I can’t tell anything. If I worked for CIA I could talk more.

HIGH WAIST SKIRT AND TOP, MY UNIFORM

High waist skirt. I deeply love high waist skirts, pants, culotte and so on! In fact I often wear hihg waist clothes or dresses fitted at the waist. I cannot help it. My other passion are top and crop top, that match perfectly with high waist skirts and pants. I’d dress like this everyday.

THE GIRL WITH THE RED COAT

Red coat. During winter I can express my passion for coats, faux furs, capes and so on and so forth. By now it’s not so cold and I don’t wear glooves and bonnets yet, but soon they will come. I love fashion coats, because often in winter they are the proper outfit, or at least the part we can see outdoor. I deeply love this red coat and when I bought it someone asked me how many times I would wore it. I answered mentioning the character of a book series I deeply love: they will call me the girl with the red coat. At least one time I have already wore it!

TARTAN COAT AND A GOOD STORY

Tartan coat. In Milan the cold has arrived and here I am to wear the first coat of the season. This tartan coat is one of those “wrong” purchases. I bought it the last year in Rome, after a long time I was keeping watch over it, never buying it because I was not convinced at all. When I found it on sale I decided to buy it, because an extra coat is always useful. Later I have tried to match it with so many outfits, but it was always a failure. A few days ago, changing out my closet, I found it again and I took it in Milan with me, having a mind to wear it as everyday’s coat, going to the gym or at supermarket.

Two days ago I wore this outfit for a meeting and, being a cold morning, I haven’t any coat that matched. So I have tried my degraded tartan coat and…dahdah! As if by magic, the coat was perfect with the outfit, and it was also so much more stylish than I remember.

Now the coat, that from to be Cinderello has become a prince, has now the life it was worthing and it is considered a coat to wear in the best occasions. This good story has teached us that there is always a second chance in life and that women and fashion are so moody!

FIRST FALL OUTFIT, GUNS N’ROSES

First fall outfit. Although it’s a little bit crazy, fall is here. With its cold insidious breeze it wants to tell us that it’s time to take out some pulls. Given that we are in autumn but good weather and sun are overpowering, I have chosen a fall outfit with summer shades. In fact I wore a light pull, grey/burgundy shades, and nude legs, because we can avoid stockings yet.

This fall is taking a lot of good news for me, and I’m looking forward to tell you everything.

EIGHTIES BODYSUIT FOR A SEXY CHIC LOOK

Eighties bodysuit. By now I don’t hide my passion for 80 and 90’s style (actually I have never hidden it!). Why I love it so much? First of all it’s so feminine, highlight the waist, the breast and the legs. Secondly it’s creative and unique. In today’s look I am wearing an original eighties bodysuit from my mother’s closet, matched with a romantic skirt, from my own closet. It’s a good rule, when we wear a very sexy garment (this bodysuit is more transparent of what I expected!) to match it with another one romantic and bon-ton. To wear this bodysuit with a miniskirt or should result too much.

Generally speaking, I love to match different garments, because I think that contrast outfits are the best.

OUTFIT COLOR COMBINATION AGAINST THE RAIN

Outfit color combination. For a few days now in Milan hasn’t stopped to rain for a minute. Even though the cold hasn’t arrived, the weather is always bad. Two days ago the rain has given us a break and we decided to go around and take some photos. Unique outfits are my passion, I love to see different patterns creating a perfect match. And I loved this outfit from the first minute I wore it. It represents me so much.

RIPPED JEANS AND CHANGE POINTS

Ripped jeans and change points. Ripped jeans are strongly back and now more than ripped are lacerated. In fact I remember when I was at college and ripped jeans were in (and mostly low waist). At school it was a tragedy with teachers that always complain for any clothe with a rip, and my mum that alway asked me if I found them in the bin.

By the way that once were not really ripped. There were just small breaks for creating a used effect. Time has changed and ripped jeans nowadays are totally different. Now breaks are serious and can even show a whole leg, or both. I can’t imagine how difficult would be being at school now. A real war.

How can you avoid this kind of jeans, even more during summertime? They are so cool and if you are tanned (I am not) the effect is superb. If you are not able to find them in any store just buy those with small rip and make them larger with your own hands.

RIPPED JEANS AND REALLY SHORT DRESS

With ripped jeans I decided to match a dress that was really too short for me. Surely wearing it over my swimsuit or at the sea it would have been perfect, but wearing it in the city I used it like a long shirt, and I have to admit that I love the result.

The outfit is complete with such stylish Zara shoes (aren’t them wonderful?) and urban look is served. I can say that ripped jeans are ever green and wearing them is a warranty. By your hand or with scissors, let’s break them.

WHAT CAN I WEAR TODAY? PRINTED DRESS AND SLIPPERS

What can I wear today? Printed dress and slippers. It is one of the most common phrases that you say when in the morning you open your wardrobe. What can I wear today? Usually when you have no time you wear something sure and comfy, but there is even those days in which you wanna change and you don’t know from where you should start. It has been one of the top questions that I asked myself in the life, but with patience and will, I always resolved it in the best way possible.

WHAT CAN I WEAR TODAY? THE SOLUTION

Most important thing for find the solution to the question what can I wear today? It is to avoid panic. It’s not true that you have nothing to wear and all what you have it doesn’t look good on you. You have to remind yourself that it is not the first time that you afford this dilemma, and you already gained big successes.

Firstly check what is in your wardrobe. Than think to your needs and what you really can wear (for example if you had no time to shave, avoid skirts and mini dresses, if you are in “that moment” forget white trousers and so on). Doing it you’ll have just a small number of clothes, choose the one you like most for start. Is your will to wear that palazzo trousers that hit you when you bought them? Perfect, match them with a slim fit shirt, a top or a tee, thinking to what you have to do later. The most important thing is to have a start point and then match it with your mood and your daily plan.

Few days ago, when I had a what can I wear today crisis I choose for a simple dress, that by the way was too banal with sandals or sneakers. That’s why I tried it with slippers with chains and immediately loved the result. I found the solution like that and I went out happy and enthusiast for my look. Simple and unique.

Today is another day so, what can I wear?

OUTFIT IDEAS FOR WINTER: PULLOVER AND PENCIL SKIRT

Often during winter it’s really difficult to have outfit ideas. Outside it’s cold (even if this December it’s lovely) and we just want to be warm, killing the style. The truth it’s that winter can offer great outfit ideas and we have to take advantage of it. It’s enough a pullover over a nice shirt, a faux fur coat, a pair of jeans and Ugg for creating an outfit super fashion and really cosy. I love when everything it’s balanced that’s why I wear large shirt and pullover with a really slim skirt. I opted for high décolleté this time, but I wore this skirt even with boots in the past. The plan was to wear a coat on my shoulder, but the temperature was such good that just the pullover was enough. During winter I love to wear thick pullovers and large trousers or slim skirts, because together they create a winter mix that I can’t resist to wear. Just look how was oversize the pullover that I was wearing here. If we wear large pants or a skirt it would be better to wear something slim the upper part of the body. Doing it there will be harmony in the result and it will be well balanced in the proportions. If we are able, winter offer us much more outfit ideas than summer, because we can use more clothes, like waistcoat, pullover, shirt and coat. We can have fun. Even socks can help us for creating a super fashion outfit. A winter accessory that I love are gloves. They really can change the look. I wear an amazing pair here. So when we wake up in the morning with frost on windows and dark outside, let’s try to do not swear at winter (I am trying to convince my self) but we may think to all the outfit ideas that this season offers us and choose the one most suitable look for us. Even because fashion is really therapeutic and a look that makes us happy it’s able to makes good even the worst winter day.
