First date outfits! For Him & for Her!

Hello everybody!
How are you? I am doing fantastic despite that my baby is a bit sick and that means sleeping pretty bad, sigh!
Talking about sleepless nights the other day I was chatting with a friend about the "single time of our life". We were calling back memories about how amazing and exciting is that time when you first meet a person you really like and you decide to accept a first date invite...TADADADAAAAN!
I remember with tenderness myself using hours getting ready in front of the mirror fathoming every single detail of my look starting from how to style my hair to the polish on my toes. The amount of clothes that from the wardrobe where quite quickly flying and piling up on my bed after a rapid outfit examination in front of the mirror. I remember the perfumes I was using, everything studied in details, and I remember my excitement walking to my date, I loved to feel so beautiful, perfect, interesting and full of life and feelings :) and the tension...I always adored that tension...

Ciao a tutti!
Come state? Io benone nonostante il mio bambino sia un po 'malato e questo significa dormire piuttosto male, sigh!
Parlando di notti insonni l'altro giorno stavo chiacchierando con una amica dei "tempi d`oro da single". Chiamavamo alla memoria i tempi sorprendenti ed emozionanti di quando si incontra una persona che ti piace veramente e si decide di accettare l`invito ad un primo appuntamento... TADADADAAAAN!
Ricordo con tenerezza me stessa ad utilizzare ore ed ore davanti allo specchio per preparami, scandagliando ogni singolo dettaglio dell`immagine che vedevo riflessa, da come volevo stesse il ciuffo di capelli allo smalto sulle dita dei piedi. La quantità di vestiti che dal guardaroba volavano accumulandosi sul mio letto dopo un rapido esame di fronte allo specchio. Ricordo i profumi che usavo, tutto studiato nel dettaglio, e ricordo la mia emozione mentre mi dirigevo al mio appuntamento, mi piaceva sentirmi così bella, perfetta, interessante e piena di vita e di sentimenti :) e la tensione ... Ho sempre adorato quella tensione... 

mmmh! stttoooop! ahah! here I stop and I ask you...do you recognize yourself there? And...do you think guys really spend all that time and energies getting ready for a first date???? Boys we want you to answer here!!
In general I really don`t think so ;) but I like to believe that if a man is really interested in you, Yes, he`s going to use some time as well in front of the mirror :) Men care as well, even if they won`t admit it, don`t you think? ;)

mmmh! stttoooop! Ah ah! qui mi fermo e vi chiedo ... vi riconoscete? E ... pensate che i ragazzi davvero spendano tutto quel tempo ed energie per prepararsi ad un primo appuntamento ???? Ragazzi vogliamo che rispondiate!!
In generale non penso proprio ;) ma mi piace credere che se un uomo è veramente interessato a te, Sì, credo che utilizzi un po`di tempo davanti allo specchio :) Anche gli uomoni ci tengono a curarsi, anche se non lo ammetterebbero mai, non pensate? :)

From this conversation I have got the idea of creating two First Date Styles! One for Her and one for Him! And here we are talking about cocktail, dinner at a fancy restaurant and...gran finale! ;)

Da questa conversazione ho avuto l'idea di creare due outift da primo appuntamento! Uno per lei e uno per lui! E qui stiamo parlando di cocktail, cena al ristorante e ... gran finale! ;)

Ok, so let`s dream a bit and let`s say that this guy is our date...get ready....!!!! ;)
Ok, quindi sognamo un po ' e diciamo che questo ragazzo è il nostro appuntamento ... preparatevi .... !!!! ;)

Here he`s getting ready for us of course! ;)
Qui si sta ovviamente preparando per noi! :)

Tommy John 2015
I really like Tommy John underwear line for men! If you ask me why it`s because of the idea behind it. "A man`s under layers shouldn`t be stuck in the past. Or anywhere else". I like the idea that a man pays attention as well to what he`s gonna wear :) As we do!

Mi piace molto la linea di intimo da uomo Tommy John! Se mi chiedete perché, e` l'idea dietro di essa. "Gli strati interiori di un uomo non dovrebbero essere bloccati in passato. O altrove ". Mi piace l'idea che anche un uomo presti attenzione a ciò vestira` :) Come facciamo noi!

Talking about outfit then I would love him to wear something "almost casual" if you know what I mean...like this!

Parlando di outfit vorrei che lui indossasse qualcosa "quasi casual", se sapete cosa intendo...come questo!

And her...I want her to be like this...! ;)   E lei...la voglio cosi`...! ;)

Victoria`s Secret 2015

Come on`! Admit it! Maybe we don`t actually exactly look like her but that`s how we feel after all those hours in front of the mirror! ;) Or at least that`s how I was feeling I was looking like...! :D

Forza, ammettetelo! Magari non assomigliamo esattamente a lei, ma cosi`e`come ci sentiamo dopo tutte quelle ore di fronte allo specchio! ;) O per lo meno cosi` e` come io mi sentivo...! :D

And then I would pick for Her something sexy but not too much, a bit rock and romantic at the same time. In this case a tight little black dress with a cool pair of stiletto pumps is always winning!

E quindi per Lei vorrei qualcosa di sexy ma senza esagerare, un po`rock e romantico allo stesso tempo. Con un vestitino nero e un paio di stiletto non si sbaglia mai!

Penso di sentirmi pronta per il mio appuntamento :) E voi? :)))
Per favore, ragazze e ragazzi, fatemi sapere se volete alcuni consigli sull`abbigliamento da primo appuntamento!
Personalmente sono fuori dai giochi, ma come stilista personale sono sempre disponibile! ;)

Have a great start of the week! Buon inizio settimana!

Last hint of summer: suede fabric and white

Hello everybody!
My last day in Milan and tomorrow I will head back to Oslo! I am a bit sorry to leave here my parents and friends but at the same time I am happy I will embrace again my boyfriend! :)
Today I want to propose you a combination that I love and that is going to be very trendy this season as well! What do you think about suede fabric and white?!? I think is a fantastic match! It's classy and elegant with semplicity. Here I combined it with black! Do you like it? I decided to use summer items as long as it's possible before I will jump into sweaters and jackets. The last drops of summer!!! I wonder how's gonna be the weather in Oslo tomorrow...!!! :) Norwegian friends, how's the weather up there?! I will try to get my mind ready along my night...eheh!!!

Kisses  for now!

Oggi vi propongo una combinazione che adoro e che sara' molto trendy questa stagione! Cosa ne pensate di tessuto suede e bianco?!? Per me sono fanbtastici insieme! Classico ed elegante con semplicita'. Qui ho deciso di combinarlo con il nero! Vi piace? Ho deciso di sfruttare finche' possibile prodotti piuttosto estivi, prima di infilarmi in maglioni e giubbotti. Le ultime gocce di estate!!! Chissa' cosa mi aspetta domani a Oslo....!!! :) Amici norvegesi, com'e' il clima lassu'?! vedro' di prepararmi psicologicamente questa notte...eheh!!!

Baci per ora!

About crawling and the mini-skirt

Hello friends, beloved, followers!
I know it's some days I don't write but since we head back to Oslo me and Gabriel we have been a bit sick! Just a cold nothing serious but a bit annoying. Anyway this doesn't seem to stop him by learning a way too fast how to move around...he's crawling very quickly, standing up by himself when grabbing into something and yesterday he learned how to crawl the stairs! I saw him trying to reach me, but a couple of steps I have in the apartment were dividing us..,,I thought: ok, to learn that it will take a couple of weeks...it took 15 minutes!! Never underestimate the agility of your little beloved! Of course he fell behind and I was just there to grab him in the air! No damages and contrasting feelings between being proud and scared about his love for explorations! :)

Turning back to Fashion (it's interesting how to balance being fashionable and a mother with a family life and a little crawler that I cannot leave alone 1 min!) today I want to post some pics about an evergreen in fashion: the mini-skirt!

Introduced in 1966 by Mary Quant, a British shop owner and designer, the mini-skirt just 6 or 7 inches above the knee, become a MUST for the London girls seeking newness and rebel vibes! Let`s not forget that we are very close to 1968, a very important year for peace movements and a revolting generation!

Since then the mini-skirt never left us performing our love for freedom and independence!
In those pics I am wearing a mini by Zara with a crop top by Weekday (perfect even with culottes!) and a pair of platforms with a leather quilted over shoulder bag by Marc Jacobs, I love it! ;)
What do you think about the outfit? Ready to wear mini-skirts this Autumn/Winter?! :)

Next post about upcoming fashions trends!

The girl in black and red

Hello guys! Wondering who is that girl? :)
It's YOU!

The new fall/winter trend is adding a touch of punk style to the bohemian stream! The result is an young but eclectic woman always updated with the last music hit and cultural vibes.

How to wear it?
Flared items, checked shirts and dresses, velvet, tulle, layering and colors related to the rebel movements of the 70'. This is the decade the latest fashion is getting inspired on! So...
Ready for the next concert?

Alentejo and north coast. The best seafood restaurant and amazing wild beaches!

Hello everybody!
How are you? I am very good, still on vacation in Portugal :) even though the weather is not the best (either is windy or cloudy) me and Rob and Gabriel we have been able to do many nice trips. Yesterday we actually drove to the north coast in Alentejo, up to Azenha do Mar where you can find the only and the best seafood restaurant for some miles. You got to go there max at 11.30 a.m. If you want to make sure you are going to have lunch. Huge amounts of people can wait to eat there! That's how good it is. And..it's absolutely worth the wait and the drive. Excellent food and service. We have had clams, huge prawns, octopus salad, king crab and fried calamari. I was exploding! It was excellent! And cheap! 
To help the digestion...what's better than driving all around the coast and stopping by amazing beaches? Honestly over there is so beautiful...it looks like no man arrived in some of those areas...it's so wild and Jurassic, if I can say that!
Have a look at the pics!
Enjoy!

The Hippy Deluxe Style

Hello everybody!
Yesterday evening we landed safe and sound to Algarve! It was a nice flight, where I even met a super nice colleague of mine :)
This morning we have been to the beach :) Very very nice, and since now Gabriel is giving me a breake while he's sleeping, I am going to use this time to talk with you about a trend that is expanding from summer to winter: The Hippy Deluxe Style!
Inspired by the 70', use colors like orange, brown, burgundy and deep blue.
Materials: silk, velvet, lace and cotton,
Wear high-heels as sandals or flats...what matters is the quality!
Get inspired by Etro and Chloe A/W 2015/2016!

Have a wonderful evening!
