#LFW | Lucretia Sandu : La Loba


Here is a unique way to end London fashion week, with a nice visit in the jungle! 
Last night I took part as a stylist, thanks to 3 Colors Rule, to the first collection of Lucretia Sandu, an emerging designer with her collection entitled "La Loba" ( The Wolf Woman ).

The venue was located at the London City Island, Goodluck Hope. A place covered by trees and plants typically exotic....very wild and unexpected, the perfect location to tell the story of ''La Loba''.
 

This catwalk is made particular by the abandonment of the stereotype of a classic catwalk: in fact, as you can see, the models are not the classic tall and thin top models, but ordinary people with a different physiognomy who, as the designer told me, she noticed them on the streets of London; the models wore no shoes but walked barefoot to embody the 'wild' side of the woman; there were dancers, a violinist, and obviously the main attraction of the collection, the wolf .... or should I say wolves, named Alice and Tala, famous for their roles in ''Games of Thrones'' .

Parsons X Teen Vogue : My Career Skills


For this assignment, I had to research job listings in the fashion industry.
Then, describe it, name one new skill that I would need to develop, and describe a brief plan for how I'm going to acquire that skill.
The listing I found was on StyleCareers.com and is for a stylist position for MaxMara.
The job requires 1-3 years experience in retail ( preferably in luxury ), strong interpersonal, organizational and communication skills, able to work independently as well as collaboratively, and proficient computer skills.
If I was applying for this position, my biggest obstacle would be computer skills.
So, in order to fix that I would start studying the most important computer programs ( like Word, Excel, and also InDesign and Photoshop ).
So for the next time, I would be ready to send my CV and no more worried about computer programs.
Here is a copy of the listing:

LFW - Pringle of Scotland #PringleBulletin



 At the London Fashion Week I got the chance to be present at the most iconic British brand knitwear collection since 1815. I'm talking about Pringle of Scotland. Returns to its archives with flowers and brighter colors; celebrating a heritage of hand intarsia and discovering the Pringle Bulletin. All this at the Institute of Contemporary Arts( ICA ).
Beautiful prints and cashmere that looks perfect for those chillier spring days that are common in Scotland.
The best part? ( Beside my favourite look ) is the geometric timber structure with the vintage jumpers that they're seem like they're flying......Fantastic!!!
Not to mention the fireplace centrepiece with beautiful flowers by Holly Marsden, superb....I wish I had a fireplace like that!

IT'S A DOUBLE WIN


New year, new month (we're in March guys, time goes so fast!!!) and new bag: this Carven tambourine bag, that I've been looking for so loooooong, is now on my wardrobe.
I found it via THEOUTNET, my favourite place to shop online, where you can get a great deal on luxury brands (like Isabel Marant, Tibi, Stella McCartney.. and many more) ----> like they say ''everything is reduced but the thrill''. You can sign up for their newsletter and get notified when new items are back in stock. Every day the site is updated with new items to make it more exciting to shop on - an example? my bag, I'm a big fan of mini bags and I couldn't leave it there: small with an unusual shape  = IT'S A DOUBLE WIN! Can’t wait to show you how I style it.

House of Spring - When Paris meets London

I was invited to the Shoes & the City party in Somerset House for the launched of the AW18 collection of  House of Spring. Hosted by the amazing Parisian designer Radhia Hadef and  the shoes expert Susannah Davda, known as The Shoe Consultant, who talked to us  about how amazing shoes can take women to the top of success. Inspired by two fashion capitals: effortless elegance of Paris combined with the creativity of London, House of Spring’s motto is to create amazing shoes with the highest standard of design, craftsmanship and comfort at an affordable price.
As a matter of fact Coco Chanel says '' A woman in a good shoes, is never ugly''.

New in: Toe cap block heels



Couldn't help it - needed to get these Chanel-lookalikes from New Look!
They're finally here and I'm so obsessed with them!
I like that they have a midi block low heels, which makes them so versatile and easy to dress down an outfit. 
Are definitely my favourite kind of shoes at the moment and perfect for this season so I can't wait to wear these as soon as it stops raining.. I have a lot of cool outfits planned for these! ;)


Hope you guys have a good day!

I was looking for a red bag for a while and then is happened: I score in Italy, during my holiday, a red mini bag at Dorothy Shop, a little shop that sell amazing shoes and bag ( like Anniel, Saucony, Les Tropeziennes, Moschino and Love Moschino and others...) and It was love at first sight.

It's tiny, quilted and red. I’m happy to introduce you. My new Love Moschino bag.

Vintage Ferragamo



I have so many bags but small size.
I’ve never had a passion for big bags, I find them bulky, heavy.. here's why I will start with medium bags, like this new entry: a Salvatore Ferragamo Vara vintage bag. So elegant, so classic and so cool. Then is black ( I never had a black bag) so I think is a good start!
