Return and go

Hello dears,

I'm sorry in this period had no time for blogging, was super-busy almost everyday, almost no moments of relax, and at night I really looked forward to see my bed and sleep, 

so apologize for my absence and thank all of you who have stayed and the new readers who came.

Also the upcoming period will be of hard working so hope you can understand 

if won't be able to write as I wish. 

Said that, I will continue to read your wonderful blogs.

Anyway I couldn't let the new year begin without my wishes. 

So my dear readers, I wish

this 2012 will be full of love, health and peace, you can fulfil your dreams and achieve your goals. And for me, just one wish. But I'll tell you afterwards. Promise.

Romy Schneider

 

Stay hungry, stay foolish

He was a visionary talent, a charismatic leader and an example for young people.

To him goes the merit to have spread the informatic verb and realized revolutionary ideas and inventions  which have changed our way of living and thinking. Without him the world would be really different.

I feel I'm still learning a lot from his personal story, a lesson of courage, strenght of will and intuitions.
He showed to be a fighter giving us a never-give-up message with his whole life - yes...I repeat that, never give up! - as well as a genius with extraordinary talents and a continuous source of inspiration.

So...I only say thank you to Mr. Jobs, R.I.P. and for us, let's keep on staying hungry and foolish.

Themes from the catwalk: macrame'

If you gave a look at the just passed Milan catwalks, you should have noticed the presence of a trend which is being all the rage everywhere: macrame'.
To impose the trend of this kind of lace- once consigned to the pieces of embroideries which decorated the household or bed linen of the grandmas- to name a few, Dolce&Gabbana and Prada (also Blumarine in the past spring summer collection).
Dolce&Gabbana doesn't betray the Sicilian identity of the brand, it gets quite stronger. Here macrame' covers entirely dresses, skirts and tops with 50s shapes, sometimes combined with light dresses with prints of vegetables, on the whole sensual and provocative in a fresh way. The declared inspiration is a cult movie - I posted about a year ago HERE - where Sofia Loren dances Mambo Italiano.
At Prada the use of macrame' is sophistication, made of appliques of little flowers of two tones over boxy coats, jackets and skirts. The aim is decorating clothes with a romantic effect. The colours are delicate, light blue, green, pink, salmon.
