Zara Trousers with leather inserts

Mango skirt

My new purchase

Here you have my last purchases from Zara, I like this knitwear and the lace inserts, the effect is very nice because they make the shoulders glimpse, we could wear it with jeans and pumps, or with a flared skirt, is simple but seems sophisticated.

Elie Saab Spring/Summer 2011

If you have 2 minutes check out this video, please.

It's really cute, a pleasure for eyes. I have a absolute love for Elie Saab creations. Elie Saab makes women sophisticated, so that wearing one of his dresses, they can feel real queens. Is this the purpose of fashion, isn't it?

Valentino-Chanel Spring Summer 11

Wonderful collections from Valentino and Chanel, the most awaited catwalks. (Pictures from Style.it)

In Valentino we found a very delicate palette of colours, nude, black and white, big use of lace,  with a very modern effect. The Valentino urban woman doesn't give up being feminine also daily. Characteristic of the maison is the use of ruches in the jackets, in the dresses that express a light and very clean in the lines, romanticism. Maria Grazia Chiuri e Pierpaolo Piccioli did a good work in respect of the brand tradition.

In Chanel collection, we could see a triumph of feathers, everywhere, both in daily and nightly outfits matched with the skirt tailleurs, classics of the maison. Coloured flowers dresses, big use of tulle, black and white matched and mixed. In the catwalk there was also the presence of Ines De la Fressange, Chanel muse, among the models.

Let's mambo! So Sophia...

Hi guys, 

As you know, cinema inspires our lives, our way of thinking and also fashion like those ones inspire cinema, so sometimes in this blog I would like to share with you some scenes of movies I really love.

Late Forties and Fifties were a fantastic period, a golden age for Italian cinema, for the presence of stars like Sofia Loren, Marcello Mastroianni, Vittorio De Sica, Silvana Mangano, Gina Lollobrigida, and directors like Fellini, Rossellini (who created a new way of acting and filming ispired to reality, the Neorealismo), it was also the period in which Italian comedy was born; the movies of these years contributed to the success of stars like Sophia who won the Oscar for her performance in "La Ciociara" and became an icon all over the world.

Well, I want to show you a piece of a movie directed by Dino Risi, "Pane, Amore e..." (1955), it's with Sophia Loren and Vittorio De Sica and the scene is a cult for the mambo dance in which Sophia expresses her curvy sensuality.
Nice way to start the day!
