Goodmorning Everyone! Let’s start this Monday with some good fashion news, so to avoid the stress of the beginning of the week! I spotted this very cute Tatty Devine bat necklace that would be perfect not only for Halloween (how boring are accessories you just use once a year?) but for all this winter.

Buongiorno a tutti! Partiamo subito con delle buone notizie di moda per non pensare troppo all’inzio della settimana! Ho trovato questa collana pipistrello di Tatty Devine che sarebbe l’ideale non solo per Halloween (che noiosi sono quegli accessori che ci si mette solo una volta l’anno e poi non ci si ricorda nemmeno di avere?) ma anche per tutta questa stagione.

Also, during my #SundayShopping (follow the hashtag!) I found out this amazing leggings promotion available at Tally Weijl: 2 pairs for 15.95€ and 3 pairs for 19.95€! This is the link to get them online, but I’d suggest you to go to the nearest store since in store there are so many more. Any Examples? Leopard, check, skulls, flowers, tye&dye, skeletons, crosses, camo, and the classic basic ones as well.

Inoltre, durante il mio #SundayShopping (seguite l’hashtag!) Ho trovato la promozione disponibile da Tally Weijl che consiste in 2 paia per 15.95€ e 3 paia for 19.95€. Qui trovate il link per acquistarli online, ma se possibile fatevi un giro in negozio, perché ne troverete davvero tantissimi modelli: leopardo, tartan, teschi, fiori, tye&dye, scheletri, croci, camouflage, oltre ai classici basic. Ovviamente, me li sarei presi tutti.

This photo reminds me of a friend of mine that answered “girls riding a bike” to the question: “which is your kind of girl”? Alexa Chung in fact looks absolutely lovely in a flowered chiffon playsuit by Anna Sui, riding her bike in the streets of New York and wearing the super cute Charlotte Olympia Kitty flats.

Questa foto mi ricorda un amico che alla domanda “che tipo di ragazza ti piace?” rispondeva sempre: “quelle in bici”. Alexa Chung infatti sta benissimo mentre pedala con la sua bici per le strade di New York indossando una playsuit di chiffon di Anna Sui e le ballerine Kitty di Charlotte Olympia.

All the best dressed at the Festival on the croisette chose very ladylike and classy looks. No to exaggerate sartorial structures, flashing colours, or mini skirts: yes to a discrete, romantic and timeless elegance that pays tribute to stars like Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn.

Le best dressed al festival sulla croisette hanno scelto dei look molto ladylike e di classe. No a strutture sartoriali estreme, colori troppo abbaglianti, o gonne troppo corte: si’ ad un’eleganza discreta, romantica e senza tempo che guarda allo stile di Grace Kelly e Audrey Hepburn.

Diane Kruger in Giambattista Valli (the floating factor, you know)

Marion Cotillard in Christian Dior dress and Versus shoes: perfect soft tone + hint of bright colour match.

Jessica Chastain in Alexander McQueen

Eva Herzigova in custom made Dolce & Gabbana and Chopard diamonds

Lana del Rey in an Alberta Ferretti with a vaguely (and charming) gothic twist

Eva Longoria in Marchesa and Fan Bing Bing in Christopher Bu dared a bit more than the others with long syren dresses though maintaining a very elegant look.

.. Don’t you think so too? Rodarte came out with so many beautiful creations and testimonials lately that everytime they find a way to leave us stunned. Any examples?

..Non lo pensate anche voi? Il brand ha creato dei vestiti cosi’ belli e ha avuto dei testimonial talmente eccezionali ultimamente da lasciarci sempre a bocca aperta. Volete degli esempi?

– White Swan/Black Swan: Kate and Laura Mulleavy created the coreographic ultra-feathered tutus worn by Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis in Black Swan. “We began by fixating on the shredded tutus on Degas’ Bronze ballerinas. We were inspired by the idea of metamorphosis, specifically the dichotomy between perfection and decay” – Said Kate and Laura on their inspiration for the movie’s costumes.

– White Swan/Black Swan: Kate and Laura Mulleavy hanno disegnato i coreografici e piumatissimi tutu’ indossati da Natalie Portman e Mila Kunis in Black Swan. ” Abbiamo iniziato a concentrarci sui tutu’ delle ballerine in bronzo di Degas. Ci siamo ispirate dall’idea di metamorfosi, e nello specifico dalla dicotomia tra perfezione e declino” – Hanno detto Kate e Laura a proposito della loro ispirazione per i costumi del film.

– Some famous sisters you might know..: Rodarte has been chosen lately by some of the most stylish Hollywood actresses (like Natalie Portman – that won the Academy Award in a Rodarte plum gown-  and Rooney Mara), and especially the two Fanning sister contributed to grow the charme of the maison (Below, Elle and Dakota in Vogue‘s Best Dressed of 2012 issue both wearing Rodarte at the S/S 2012 show).

– Sorelle famose di cui avrete sentito parlare..: Rodarte e’ stato scelto ultimamente da alcune delle piu’ eleganti attrici di Hollywood (come Natalie Portman – che ha ritirato l’Oscar in Rodarte color prugna- e Rooney Mara), e specialmente le due sorelle Fanning hanno contribuito ad accrescere lo charme della maison (sotto, Elle e Dakota nel Vogue Best Dressed of 2012 issue, entrambe vestite Rodarte alla sfilata S/S 2012).

– The change: Taylor Swift looked as fascinating as never before wearing Rodarte for Vogue US.

– La sorpresa: Taylor Swift e’ diventata affascinante come mai prima d’ora in Rodarte per il servizio di Vogue America.

– Beck and Charlotte Gainsbourg, photographed together for i-D in Rodarte: could you ask for anything more?

– Beck e Charlotte Gainsbourg, fotografati assieme per i-D in Rodarte: si potrebbe volere di piu’?

– The Fra Angelico Collection at LACMA (photos by Autumn De Wilde): dreamy and hieratic at the same time. Classic Art meets research and the prestigious fabrics and embroideries of couture, and dresses look like modern saints’ gowns.

– The Fra Angelico Collection at LACMA (photos by Autumn De Wilde): sognante e allo stesso tempo ieratica. L’arte classica incontra la ricerca e i preziosi tessuti e rifinimenti couture, e i vestiti sembrano gli abiti di santi moderni.

– That Dress: Worn by Elle Fanning to the 2012 Critic’s Choice Awards and by Taylor Swift for Vogue, the Rodarte’s S/S 2012 Iridescent Seafoam Silk Chiffon and Tulle Gown with Sunflower Silk Embroidery is my first #dresscrush this year.. And now that I shared it with you all, I  know I won’t be lonely in this longing anymore.

– Quel vestito: Indossato da Elle Fanning al Critic’s Choice Award 2012 e da Taylor Swift per Vogue, il vestito di Rodarte S/S 2012 color acqua marina in seta di chiffon iridescente e tulle con ricami di girasoli di seta e’ la mia prima #dresscrush di quest’anno.. E ora che l’ho condivisa con tutti voi, so che non saro’ piu’ sola in questo mio desiderio.

Those are from MyTheresa.com, I made the mistake of going there today and I found myself scrolling down hypnotized by these shoes.. Here’s just a selection, but if you really want to hurt yourself you can go directly to the site and watch them all (or, I mean, maybe you can afford to buy them all and you won’t suffer at all..)

Queste sono su MyTheresa.com, ho fatto il terribile errore di andarci oggi e mi sono ritrovata a fare scroll down totalmente ipnotizzata dalle scarpe.. Ho pubblicato solo alcuni modelli, ma se vi volete far proprio del male potete andare sul sito e guardarvele tutte per puro masochismo (voglio dire, magari poi voi potete permettervele tutte, quindi starete alla grande!..)

Inspiration: Mia Wasikowska in “Restless”

Her role in Restless is really sweet, and so I created a set inspired by one of her outfits. Real, simple and down to earth, but at the same time cute, quirky. And a thing that I love is that the two main characters of this movie have the same exact hair.. Lovebirds!

Il suo ruolo in Restless di Gus Van Sant e’ adorabile, ed e’ per questo che ho creato un set qui sotto ispirato a lei. Semplice e vera, ma anche originale ed eccentrica. E una cosa  molto carina che mi fa sorridere e’ che i due protagonisti hanno gli stessi identici capelli da sparviero!

If you’ve seen the movie you’ll find out why I put a “bird” clutch in the set..

You can find all the details about the items in the Polyvore Set

Se avete visto il film capirete il riferimento della pochette con un uccellino dorato..

Per tutti i dettagli sugli articoli nel set sopra, ecco il Set di Polyvore

So far I just created one set inspired by the movie, but the outfits are so lovely that if I’ll find some more time I’ll post some more: stay tuned!

Per ora ho creato solo questo set ispirato al film, ma se trovero’ il tempo ne creero’ altri ancora, stay tuned!
