Blumarine leather fringed skirt, Helene Berman coat

Blumarine back leather fringe hemline skirt and Miu Miu tote

Hello, everyone ! It's time for the first outfit of march, featuring a Blumarine black leather fringe skirt matched to an orangey red H&M blouse with three quarter sleeves. Fringes are going to be a hot trend also for Spring/Summer, and I love them in this slightly urban version. I love this skirt: it has the perfect length, above the knee, and its simple pencil cut together with the fringed hemline make it fun and sleek at the same time. My new Miu Miu tote bag, that I actually bought for office - great to carry papers and a bag roomy enough to fit my macbook air, it is so stylish that it can be carried everywhere. For this outfit, I chose my Icone cut out heels, and got to wore my new ray-ban sunglasses found on SunglassesShop Italia. I couldn't help adding a statement necklace from Bijou Brigitte, for an additional color injection !.

Gonna in pelle con orlo sfrangiato Blumarine e borsa Miu Miu

Ciao a tutti ! E' il momento del primo outfit di marzo, con una gonna in pelle nera a frange di Blumarine, abbinata ad una blusa di un rosso aranciato H&M, con maniche a tre quarti. Le frange saranno un trend molto caldo anche per la Primavera/Estate, ed io le amo in questa versione un po' urban. Adoro questa gonna: ha la lunghezza perfetta, corta ma non troppo, ed il suo semplice taglio a tubino, insieme al bordo frangiato la rende esclusiva e divertente al tempo stesso. La nuova borsa shopper Miu Miu è stata acquistata da me per l'ufficio, comodissima per le carte e, cosa importantissima, è una borsa abbastanza grande anche per portare il macbook air all'occorrenza, così bella che può essere sfoggiata ovunque. Per questo outfit ho scelto di calzare le scarpe cut out di Icone, ed i miei nuovi occhiali da sole ray-ban trovati su SunglassesShop Italia, negozio specializzato nella vendita di occhiali da sole online. Non ho resistito ad aggiungere una statement necklace Bijou Brigitte, per una ulteriore iniezione di colore !.

Sequin appliques: how to wear them

Zara sequin applique t-shirt and selfie beanie

Since my childhood, I have always loved sequins. After the initial disappointment of learning that for some unwritten rule, I couldn't go out plastered in sequins during daytime, I focused on something more wearable: I discovered the importance of sequin appliques and how to wear them to give a bit of sparkle to my everyday outfits. This casual everyday look sees me wearing a sequin applique t-shirt from Zara new Spring collection, featuring a cloud and lightning applique, maybe a little premonition of the current rainy weather?. When we took these pics, the sky was sunny blue and I enjoyed wearing my new ray-ban sunglasses, cat-eye shaped, that I found on Sunglasses Shop Italia, online webshop selling luxury brands. This simple outfit featuring faux leather pants and my beloved Max Mara camel coat, was also brightened by a fun Bershka selfie beanie, another example of how sequin appliques can work well also for daytime !. A touch of class was given by my new pearl and crystal necklace and bracelet from Luca Barra.

Maglia Zara con applicazioni in paillettes e cappellino Selfie

Fino dall'infanzia, ho sempre amato le paillettes. Dopo una iniziale delusione quando ho scoperto che, per una regola non scritta ma vigente, non me ne potevo andare in giro ricoperta di paillettes durante il giorno, mi sono concentrata su qualcosa di più portabile, ovvero sulle applicazioni in paillettes e su come indossarle per dare un tocco scintillante ai miei outfit quotidiani. Questo look casual mi vede portare una maglia con applicazione a forma di nuvola e fulmine in paillettes della nuova collezione Primaverile Zara, forse una piccola premonizione sull'attuale tempo piovoso ?. Quando queste foto sono state scattate, il cielo era blu e soleggiato e ne ho approfittato per inaugurare i miei nuovi occhiali da sole ray-ban "da gatta", trovati sul negozio online Sunglasses Shop Italia, negozio che vende online occhiali di marche di lusso. Questo semplice outfit con pantaloni in ecopelle ed il mio adorato cappotto cammello Max Mara è stato illuminato anche da un beanie divertente di Bershka, con la scritta Selfie,altro esempio di come le applicazioni in paillettes possano funzionare di giorno !. Un tocco di classe è stato aggiunto dalla mia nuova collana abbinata al bracciale in perle e cristalli Luca Barra.

New in: Stella McCartney sunglasses

My love for sunglasses is well known, as I am wearing them in most of my posts. To me, sunglasses truly are part of the outfit and also something I feel very comfortable with, since my eyes are very delicate and can't stand direct sunlight very well. Let me introduce you to my latest pair of Stella McCartney Sunglasses, courtesy of Sunglasses Shop !. The sunnies arrived so quickly since my order, with their fancy case and in perfect condition ! This webshop has truly the best service among all the online shops I have experienced until now !.

Il mio amore per gli occhiali da sole non è un mistero, anche perché li porto in quasi tutti i post di questo blog. Per me, gli occhiali da sole sono parte integrante di un outfit e anche qualcosa che uso per comodità, dato che i miei occhi delicati sopportano a fatica la luce diretta del sole senza lacrimare. Oggi vi presento i miei nuovi occhiali arrivati da poco da Sunglasses Shop, sono di Stella McCartney !.
Gli occhiali sono arrivati velocemente dall'ordine, nella loro custodia, ed in condizioni perfette ! SunglassesShop ha davvero il miglior servizio tra tutti gli shop online che ho provato fino ad oggi !.

Stella McCartney 4038 Sunglasses
Zara burgundy coat
Zara miniskirt
Givenchy Pandora bag

Name cardigan
Iro ankle boots

Usually cat eye Sunglasses suit my face shape pretty well, so when I picked those up I was almost sure those frames would look nice. This time I went for a pale color, also cause I have plenty of dark colored sunglasses and I needed a change !. Stella McCartney 4038 Sunglasses turned out being a great choice, they also have them in other colors !.

Solitamente, gli occhiali dalla forma un po' retrò, "da gatta", stanno bene con la forma del mio viso, per cui ordinandoli online ero quasi sicura di non avere brutte soprese. Ho scelto un paio di occhiali dalla montatura chiara anche per cambiare un po', dato che di occhiali scuri ne ho già tanti ed inoltre amo questa tonalità di rosa. 

In these pics I am wearing a burgundy Zara coat, a new mini skirt from Zara (new collection) and my beloved Givenchy Pandora bag.
Ankle boots are from Iro (see details below) and on my nails I am wearing Dior nail polish "Gris trianon", love it !.

In queste foto indosso un cappotto di Zara color bordeaux, una mini presa da poco da Zara (nuova collezione) e la mia adorata borsa Givenchy Pandora.
I tronchetti sono di Iro (i dettagli nella foto sottostante) e sulle unghie porto lo smalto di Dior "Gris trianon", che adoro !.

BVLGARI BZero ring

No brand necklace

It seems that the leather sleeved jackets trend is here to stay, together with the aztec print one, and I am happy about it. Sure, everytime I enter into Zara I am tempted by so many things, I just can't help it !. I've been wearing layers of clothes under this coat because the air is still too chilly, the coat is not very warm, not to my standards however ! Spring, where are you ? I need you !.

Pare che la moda delle giacche con maniche in pelle (o eco-pelle) sia quì per restare, stessa cosa per la stampa azteca, e a me non dispiace affatto. Di sicuro, ogni volta che entro da Zara è un attentato alle mie finanze, con gli arrivi continui, non resisto proprio !.
Indossavo strati di maglie sotto al cappotto di Zara, non è abbastanza caldo per queste temperature, e non per i miei standard, comunque. Primavera, dove sei ? Ho bisogno di te !!!.

Today it's also the right time to announce the winners of Sofia Moore elegant purse giveaway ! We have two winners, yay ! The winners, selected randomly with Rafflecopter, are:
Lieying Ng and Eva Ribeiro ! Congratulations, lucky girls, you'll receive an e-mail soon to get your purse :).

Vintage style: flower dress and cat eye sunglasses !

As most of you know already, I like to change style and play with fashion. This time I got to wear a dress that caught my attention as soon as I saw it, because I fell in love with the floral print, the fall colors and its vintage style. I think I found a great chance to wear my new Dolce and Gabbana Sunglasses, courtesy of SunglassesShop...the cat eye shape and brown color add another vintage touch to the whole outfit, don't you think so ?.

Come molti di voi già sapranno, mi piace cambiare spesso stile e giocare con la moda. Questa volta ho indossato un abito che mi ha colpita non appena visto perché mi sono innamorata della sua stampa floreale, dei colori autunnali e del suo stile vintage.
Ho approfittato per indossare i miei nuovi occhiali da sole di Dolce & Gabbana inviatimi da SunglassesShop...la forma "da gatta" e il colore tartarugato con lenti marroni hanno aggiunto un ulteriore tocco vintage all'outfit, non pensate ?.

I love wearing sunglasses, I wear them with almost all my outfits because that's the way I am - I think sunglasses are part of the outfit, plus I hate it when I have to look towards the sun without my shades on, I have a hard time when it happens !.
Plus let's say it, a nice pair of sunglasses make us look and feel more glamorous ! ;).
I got these sunglasses a few days ago and I am sure I am gonna use them a lot, cause their shape is classical yet very trendy, and I think they complement my oval pretty well.
My experience with SunglassesShop has been great, they the best customer service ever, shipment was so quick and sunnies came with their original case and also a carry pouch, as well as the shop bag.
This is gonna be one of my fave webshops ever, they have a huge variety of brands and designer sunglasses such as Gucci, Miu Miu, Chanel, Marc by Marc Jacobs, plus so many others, for all tastes and prices !.
I am also very pleased to host a SunglassesShop giveaway to win a sunglasses of choice among all the Vogue ones, they are all so beautiful...it's gonna end in a few days, hope you entered already or will enter it !.

Sono un'amante degli occhiali da sole, li indosso in quasi tutti i miei post perché di solito non ne faccio a meno - credo facciano parte integrante dell'outfit, inoltre odio la luce del sole diretta negli occhi, senza la protezione data delle lenti mi infastidisce molto !.
Inoltre diciamocelo pure, un bel paio di occhiali da sole ci fa sentire più "glamorous" !.
Ho questi occhiali da pochi giorni e mi piacciono molto, sono certa che li userò parecchio, hanno una forma classica ma anche molto alla moda e credo stiano bene con l'ovale del mio viso.
La mia esperienza con SunglassesShop è stata ottima, ha il miglior servizio clienti che abbia sperimentato, sono veloci, efficienti e gli occhiali da sole sono arrivati imballati perfettamente, con la loro scatola originale, la custodia Dolce & Gabbana e anche il portaocchiali morbido, oltre alla busta del negozio.
So già che questo diventerà uno dei miei shop online preferiti, hanno una enorme varietà di marchi e occhiali di design come quelli di Gucci, Miu Miu, Chanel, Marc by Marc Jacobs, oltre a tanti altri, per tutti i gusti e le tasche !.
Inoltre, sono molto orgogliosa del giveaway che sto promuovendo con SunglassesShop - che tra l'altro finisce tra pochi giorni - potete vincere un paio di occhiali da sole Vogue a vostra scelta, ce ne sono di veramente molto belli, se non avete già aderito approfittate !.

No Aut burgundy turtleneck
Calzedonia tights

I decided to wear my Rochas shoes you had already seen, with my Juicy Couture bag, same color as the soft leather sash I tied to my waistline.
I went for burgundy tights and turtleneck to put the color of the dress in evidence and a flower necklace from Tarina Tarantino. The large cardigan you see in the pics is from Romwe, I love it !. The bright red lipstick I am wearing in the pics is from Nouba, a brand that is quite hard for me to find in the shops...I am sure I am gonna be sad when it finishes ! Am I the only one going all sad when something she's using is almost over, thinking that there's no way to get a new identical one ?.

Ho deciso di indossare le mie scarpe Rochas che avevate già visto con la mia borsa di Juicy Couture, dello stesso colore della fusciacca in pelle morbida che ho legato in vita.
Ho optato per calze e collo alto vinaccio per esaltare il colore dell'abito e indossato una collana di Tarina Tarantino.
Il cardigan oversize è di Romwe, lo adoro !. Il rossetto rosso che porto in foto è di Nouba, adoro i colori di questo brand che è molto difficile da reperire per me...infatti credo proprio che sarò triste quando finirà ! Sono l'unica che va in paranoia prima che le cose che ama usare finiscano, al pensiero di non avere subito un ricambio ?.
