THANKSGIVING IN MILAN

 Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! Yes I know that in Italy we do not celebrate it, but it’s really important. I love United States, the way of living there that it’s totally different from the european, the cities, the movies and all what they represent. That’s why tonight Me and Save will be in Milan, at California’s Bakery, a famous restaurant in the city, for eating a typical american menu for the Thanksgiving Day. I am already starving! Talking about today’s post, we were super late for a meeting, and I was not able to find a location that I like for the shooting. Than we saw this bridge over the highway. I loved it. The outfit represent a style that I love, it’ is made with romantic characteristics and rock details. I don’t like those outfits that are made by a single style: if it’s not for a specific shooting I avoid to wear like Alice in Wonderland or like a member of the Kiss. I like to mix. Often I wear romantic dress, with plissé and ruches, matching them with leather jacket, studded boots, black leather bag or, like in this case, high heels (other examples here, here and here). I love contrast, because that’s fashion. Contrast of proportion: long tees with short skirts, or vice versa (here, here and here). Contrast of color: matching opposite colors like black and white or dark colors with fluo details (here and here). Contrast of shape: large tees with close fitting pants or skirt (here, here and here). Contrast of fabric: veil with wool, velvet or jeans (here and here). Even in this outfit I minimize a dress full of rouges with leather details obtaining a metropolitan look. Don’t miss to check out my INSTAGRAM profile tonight, I will show you all the courses and the details of the night. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. I wish great day to everyone.

HALLOWEEN COSTUME FOR A SCARY NIGHT

Saturday and Sunday have been such a long days for me. I started a new project for the blog and I did few things after weeks that I was postponing them. This situation made me realize that I have some kind of bipolarity. Not really, obviously, but I think that if you meet me once when I am tired and once when I am not you’ll have two different Melissa in front of you. Being tired kill all my enthusiasm and vitality. I can’t make up/wear something nice/go out/talk/hairdo/eat in a normal way. Just a scary entity in large joggers is there, with crazy hairstyle, cave-dweller nails, face like a ghost that drag himself around the house looking for food and bed or sofa in which rest. When I come home late at night my home is vastly transformed in a camp, clothes stacked on the chair in my room, that if she could talk..(I won’t hear her by the way because it’s always buried) and accessories everywhere, that I go into the bathroom swearing against my idea of putting make up on in the morning, I remove it (in a bad way, I know that it’s terrible for my skin), I take out my dog (I love him, but I hate that he always has to pee, and that I realize my dream: eat any kind of junk food lying on my sofa, loving that moment. When I am tired diet/care of my skin (at least removing make up properly!)/of my nails and being in order don’t exist. I simply don’t care, I just wanna enjoy my rest. But, obviously, when I am tired all sorts of thing happen. Save calls me for an important work, my mum need that I take her dog to the vet, in the block there is a blackout for some kind of maintenance work (it happened!), the cat is sick and puke on that famous pile of clothes on the chair. And you watch it, shocked, thinking that tomorrow, when you’ll be fresh and it won’t looks like a tragedy.

PS: In the pics I show you the look for the Halloween party organized by a dear friend. I wore a dress, looks and location to be scary! You have to shudder now, witches are back!
