Dinner Oufit - my new self-drawn pantsuit

I just spent two wonderful days with my family by the sea.
I actually got some tan lines to show for that.
We went to dinner the other evening and my mom's good friend Pia, a wonderful photographer that I've always been to embarrassed to ask to take photos for my blog. But over dinner, I told her how exciting The Haute Pursuit search for a blogger for an H&M mentorship seemed and how I'd have loved to participate. She got more excited than I was, so straight after dinner she said "Let's go to my studio and take some pics!!!" I couldn't say no. I was also wearing my H&M denim jacket. It is the only denim jacket I have, need and care for. It's about 5 years old, it's starting to look faded hiccup just makes me love it even more and I have to say it has been everywhere with me and I can show a billion pics with this jacket. It was perfect.
I was also wearing my brand new two-piece that I had made by my friend tailor. It took a while to ruffle all the ruffles and get the pants just right, but I am beyond happy with the result. I got stopped five times that evening to be asked where I got it from. :P
So despite not being eligible to participate, I did have a blast taking these pics.

H&M Badass Models Summer Campaign

Badass Adriana, Doutzen, Joan and Natasha for H&M summer campaign.
Highly unrealistic and somewhat pretentious. Definitely entertaining and inspiring.
Watch it several times and those Cassey Ho burps will start to make sense.
I kinda want Joan's mashup of a dress. Anybody else feeling it?

Kiss and Peace

Rainy day outfit

Went shopping with some friends on the rainiest day possible! I wore something fun, colorful, comfortable and just plain alive to do battle with the ever dark weather situation! 😥

Keeping my fingers crossed for better weather! (Why isn't there a fingers crossed emoticon?!???)

 

Powdered Pink Pleather Jacket - Stradivarius (found it for next to nothing on sale a few year ago! :) )

Pink T-Shirt - H&M

Salmon Pink Pants - Zara

Blue "Celeste" Bag - Coccinelle 

Cuoio Wedged Shoes - no particular brand, just really awesome Italian craftsmanship. 😉😍

Kiss and Peace

P.S. I played around with the filters. :)

An oddly fashionable old sweater and some apologies

Sorry for being MIA, work and the dentist and my Mystery man and my Dudù and just about the whole world have been keeping me pretty busy. But I promise I'll have a nice post for you tomorrow morning.
I'll even throw in the coffee. Even a croissant.

In the meantime, here's a couple of shots just before tropical weather hit my area and I've stopped wearing sweaters.
I dug up this old sweater that I bought at a flee market for next to nothing. I'm happy to say that it has become terribly fashionable this season and with Coachella still in sight in our fashion mobil rear-view mirror. So I put it on, a pair of studded Chelsea boots that I will wear to my grave and frolicked in my garden.

Old and now fashionable sweater of unknown origin

Black T-shirt - H&M (they're my favs)

Cropped Skinny Jeans - Prada

Studded Chelsea boots - custom made in Shoe Wonderland aka Montegranaro Italy

I'm off to bed with a book about the discourse features of the English language. Things are going to get wild. Wild, I tell you!

Kiss and Peace

Do you like pyjama pants?

Wednesday Magic by greenvogueglam featuring patterned pants

Everywhere I look nowadays I see pyjama-style silk pants fluttering on every type of body imaginable and in combined wildly with the most unthinkable accessories. And I love it!

Ever since I bought my first light blue and white linen pyjama style pants two years ago in Positano (mental post-it:must take a pic and post it here), I have been secretly wishing everybody would just get on board with wearing pyjama pants.

And low and behold, everybody had been craving and wishing for the same thing because last year and this year more than ever, long, flow, unflattering yet totally fabulous pyjama style pants are everywhere.

I haven't yet pulled my linen ones out from the summer boxes and yes, I have boxes to store summer attire because if not, I would wear everything all the time and people are weird about doing that here in Italy. You're supposed to wear winterables and then summerables and don't mix them or they'll stare you down with their innate, unattainable fashion sense right back to whatever foreign country you came from. Gotta love'em!

Yesterday I woke really early (damn you Wednesday), grabbed my brand-new, bought on sale Bershka black and white pyjama-style pants, a crisp white  Dolce&Gabbana shirt, my worn-out purple Converse sneakers and a very old H&M jeans jacket that I refuse to part with.

No make-up (it was either the make-up or the yoga, I chose the latter), took 5 pictures and went to work asap.

Last evening I got inspired to create the set at the top of the page.

It's a slightly different take on what I wore yesterday but I love it. I should have posted this yesterday, but I had dinner with Mr. Mystery and got sidetracked by his adorable self.

It also made me think I need to get a pair of white sneakers, like yesterday.

Kiss and Peace
