I found on xoJane this beautiful photo shoot of Courtney Love’s townhouse in NYC. Not only this is a wonderful house, finely painted and decorated, but I felt kind of emotional looking throught the objects of her own private life. It’s like, do you remember that book, Post Secret? Looking at these photos I had the feeling of taking a sneak peek through someone else’s past and present, at the people that shared places with them, and the simple taste for what’s beautiful, or unexpected, to furnish a house.

Ho trovato su xoJane questo bellissimo servizio di foto della casa newyorkese di Courtney Love. Non solo e’ un posto da sogno, decorato e dipinto con splendido gusto, ma mi sono quasi emozionata nel guardare tra gli oggetti della sua vita privata. E’ un po’ come quel libro, Post Secret. Guardando queste foto ho avuto quella sensazione di quando si da’ un’occhiata di nascosto al passato e al presente di qualcuno, alle persone che hanno condiviso quei posti con loro, e la semplice passione per cio’ che e’ bello, o inaspettato, per arredare una casa.

Above, Courtney’s collection of vintage cake toppers.. Can you spot which one is from Kurt and Courtney’s wedding?

I’d like to close this post with an image from Post Secret, sometimes these hidden confessions hit you with such a strong unexpected beauty.

Vorrei chiudere il post con un’immagine tratta da Post Secret. A volte queste confessioni segrete ti colpiscono con forza con la loro bellezza inaspettata.

..I know! The week before Christmas can be quite hectic. You thought you found the right party dress and all, but then your younger sister asks for Jonas Brothers (that you can’t do), you remember you have 5/6 relatives you forgot about you need to buy presents for, your friends start to dress their innocent cats like Santa’s little helpers, in the shops they don’t have gift ideas anymore, you find out it might also be the case to buy a little something for yourself, some ex you wouldn’t want to exist calls you and tell you He loves you deerly, and yeah, the fox could be the murderer. Unbelievable, they still don’t have gift ideas either in this shop, after you walked one hour till your heels are cracking up in two (and your ankles too)  and you’d just like to have a cupcake now (but no, you can’t, you need to lose weight and you already know you’ll put up another half of yourself during Christmas parties..)..How come they don’t have gift ideas even in here?! Keep calm and carry on. Calm, and carry on… It’s -almost- Christmas…

..Lo so, lo so! La settimana prima di Natale puo’ diventare piuttosto folle. Credevi di aver trovato il vestito per i party, e tutto il resto, ma poi tua sorella minore ti chiede i Jonas Brother (che non puoi prenderle), ti ricordi che hai 5/6 parenti di cui ti eri dimenticato a cui devi fare dei regali, i tuoi amici cominciano a vestire i loro gatti innocenti come piccoli aiutanti di Babbo Natale, nei negozi non hanno piu’ idee regalo, ti rendi conto nel frattempo che magari sarebbe anche il caso di comprare una cosina per te stessa, qualche ex di cui non vuoi piu’ immaginare nemmeno l’esistenza ti chiama e ti dice che ti ama, e si’, in tutto cio’ la volpe potrebbe essere il colpevole. Incredibile, non hanno idee regalo nemmeno in questo negozio, dopo che hai camminato un’ora fino a quando i tacchi (e le caviglie, pure), ti si stanno spezzando in due, e tu vorresti solo mangiarti un cupcake ora (ma non puoi, perche’ sei gia’ a dieta e sai gia’ che a Natale metterai su due volte te stessa..)..Com’e’ che nemmeno qui hanno idee regalo?! Calma, e vai avanti. Stai calma, e vai avanti.. E’ -quasi- Natale…

As reported in WWD, Sophia Coppola directed a short advertising movie in Marrakech, the last October, to promote the collection of Consuelo Castiglioni – Marni for H&M (that will hit the stores in March 2012).. The director already shot some other short movies for fashion brands, like the two commercials for Dior Chérie.

WWD ha risportato in questi giorni che Sophia Coppola ha girato lo scorso Ottobre, a Marrakech, un mini film promozionale per promuovere la collezione che Consuelo Castiglioni – Marni ha realizzato per H&M (nei negozi a Marzo 2012).. Come alcuni di voi ricorderanno, la regista non è nuova agli spot per la moda, avendo girato negli ultimi anni due spot per Dior Chérie.

This is definitely one for the boys! I always bought men’s clothes for myself (very small ones, considering my height..),and decided to do a Boys’ Day today. This below is a styling set inspired by an old photo of Morrissey. I thought of this set for a young man that travels and uses technology as well, and is also into comfortable and resistant designer clothing with a strong heritage of manufacture. In this set there are some of the brands I like the most for guys lately, APC (I like this one also for girls, actually), Ally Capellino (amazing manufactured leather bags for guys and girls directly from a little atelier in Shoreditch, London), sunglasses in tortoise shell (I love the style and they are very smart looking on men), and Levi’s (a classic). I put together the selection picking mostly from Mr Porter (Online) and Diverse Menswear (London Upper Street and Online). Let me know if you like it! If so I could start a Boys’ Day every week..

Above, clockwise: Jeans Levi’s at Mr Porter, The Smiths Vintage t-shirt The Queen is Dead, Hartford scarf, Levi’s Jacket, tag holder and bag Ally Capellino, Sunglasses Cutler And Gross, Bottega Veneta leather wallet, Mulberry Ipad Case, APC Desert Boots.
