Editor’s choice and the importance of being a sunnies maniac

I still can remember the day my mother told me " Today will go in a so pretty place Carolina where you can choose your first pair of sunglasses for the holidays ". That day began my maniacal passion about sunglasses, it was like being a candy shops where I could try everything and imagine myself in every corner of the world wearing them. My personal opinion about sunglasses ( and also glasses ) is that they must be epic and relevant. I'm always seraching for the most particular frame in bright colors and just because I'm a compulsive buyer I like do the major part of my shopping online. The right pair of sunnies can take your day to the next level of...

Editor’s choice | Pre-Fall 2016 IT bags

Always with feet on the ground but with an eye on the future. Looking to the trend of the next season is an attraction that I cannot resist. And to this kind of temptation I have to surrender.

Les Petites Joueurs F/W 2016-2017 and 5 reasons why you must have it in your closet

In Paris, for me, everything has a different taste. From breakfast in a bistrot, to walk along the Seine through a presentation of a collection of the upcoming season.

Les Petits Joueurs is one of those brands that make the whole thing even more special because of the history that makes up its birth.

Maria Sole Cecchi infact is a strong, decisive and admirable girl. A person who believed in herself and in her dream and the birth of Les Petits Joueurs reminded of a fairy tale. When she lived in Paris, Maria Sole had been invited to a party but didn’t want to show up with a bag that could have anyone. With a couple of little Lego bricks in her hand she started to apply them on an old clutch composing the word LOVE.

From there, the success.

She moved to Brazil, where she became a true IT girl and style icon and where she started her brand. At the same time arrived the covers of popular magazines and her creations were worn by major celebrities and socialites. Thanks to the openness of the country and its livelihood to young artists, through ABEST, Les Petits Joueurs managed to establish itself in the rest of the world and that is positioned as the flagship brand of young fashion scene. A brand that has a huge talent and that we hear about for many years to come.

The collection of Les Petits Joueurs bags F / W 2016-2017 GEOMETRIC GLAM , presented in Paris, it is ironic, glamorous and with geometric and vibrant details. You can find the iconic model Alex word LOVE, with beades fringed and with eyes and mini charms to attach to the bag. Unmissable in this collection the Bunny model, worn by Kyle Jenner.

Pop and captivating are just some of the reasons for which having an LPJ in your wardrobe is a must.

1) LPJ is an Italian product, Florentine DOC, and then purchasing one of these bags basically means that you’ll be carrying the Italian excellence in the field of manufacturing and quality. A feature very important …

2) A witty and quirky bag reminds you that life should always be taken with joy, without taking yourself too seriously.

3) Having an IT bag means you have a statement piece that will last over time and that will make you feel unique every single time you use it. Or you admire it hang in your closet.

4) LPJ has a range of bags suitable for any occasion and looks, that highlight every simple, easy and minimal outfits. A true master key to always be cool.

5) LPJ is the representation of how every dream should be pursued, prosecuted and strongly desired. For the Maria Sole which is in each of us, struggling to emerge and see her desire reality. Les Petits Joueurs and Maria Sole Cecchi represent our lighthouse, becoming the manifesto of a generation that wants to do it, that crosses the borders of a country sometimes too closed and elitist, and who has the courage to think and say I do it.

Mira Mikati is a London-based Lebanese designer. She started her career in 2007 as co-founder of PLUM, the Middle East's leading concept store.

Look of the day | Find happiness in Paris

Paris, Paris, Paris.

Among viennoiseries and a glass of white wine, between a walk to get lost through those alleys that smell of home, in Paris I find my happiness.

The sense of belonging to a place is not given from domicile but from the unique sensation of being enveloped by the benevolent warmth that only the home of the heart knows how to give.

And you Paris… You are always for me.

Lifestyle | My Vueling experience during Paris Fashion Week

Paris fashion week is in absolute my favorite one. Either because it takes place in the city of the heart, either because the allure of fashion shows taste like haute couture even if it comes to ready-to-wear and also because going to Paris at any time of the year is always a good idea, personally the experience of the Paris fashion week is always accompanied by pathos and joy.

For the second time in a row, I had the pleasure and the honor of having Vueling as a partner of this wonderful adventure.

Vueling is the younger, fresh and social Spanish flag company on the market. Following their motto “We are a company of concrete people and we are convinced that there is always something to improve.” Vueling aims of efficiency, availability, non-conformism and a good dose of humility.

The concrete is the only way we know to be different, affordable and competitive

With more than 160 destinations (I anticipate you already that I am pointing to the Canary Islands, Madrid or Mallorca), the airline can carry you to all your dream destinations and … You can do it taking with you your fur friends! With Vueling infact you can bring into the cabin a maximum of 2 pets and so your pets will not fly in the aircraft hold but next to you!

We are realistic because we want to always go a little further.

I could handle my entire reservation for Paris Orly online consulting times for me more comfortable with extreme rapidity and creating it on my travel needs, inputting hold luggage and looking for the seat that would make me more pleasure. Besides, with the PUNTO program, with which you can earn points to fly, you can accumulate points with ease and with only 500 you can already fly. You can have points with any rate you choose to fly, regardless of date, destination or flight and you can buy flights with points for yourself or for those you want to. Vueling also offers to recover the points that you forgot to add to your account and every time you fly you get closer and closer to the unique benefits of Premium. This last one is the card that is given to those who make at least 40 flights with Vueling in one year and granting numerous advantages such as telephone support exclusive and personalized to your needs, offers before anyone else and take advantage of places for promotion, if the flight is full, calling up to 24 hours before departure you can book your place, dedicated check-in desks, no lines, fast-track security checks at the airports of Barcelona, ​​Amsterdam, Hamburg, Monaco of Bavaria , Brussels, Rome, Turin, Berlin-Tegel and Frankfurt, priority boarding and with rates Optima and Excellence you have the possibility to postpone your flight at no additional cost.

My final judgment on my experience with Vueling was again positive. The flight departed on time landing in advance both outbound and return flights, the controls have been scrupulous and efficient, I have not done long waits and endless queues and the staff was very courteous.

Vueling thanks for this second exciting partnership and for conveying to me once again the inexhaustible desire to do more and better.

Lifestyle | Hotel Manin Milano

Milan.

Milan and its charm at any time of the year, which, however, during the fashion week is accentuated even more. It can be for the air full of fashion, for the street style that is catching everybody or for the new trends for next season that can be seen, the fact is that Milan is the undisputed capital, the IT place where you should be.

Shows to run to, presentations and events that you cannot miss, stay in town becomes imperative to be able to rest between a meeting to another and for different changes of clothes.

My home away from home was the Hotel Manin, a 4 stars hotel located in the heart of the city of Milan. Near the fashion district and with a spectacular view over Giardini Indro Montanelli park, this hotel ranks among the best in which to stay when you are in Milan, both for business and for pleasure.

Featuring 124 rooms, including 7 junior suites and 1 suite with jacuzzi on the terrace, and is property for over a century of the Colombo family, every room of this loxury hotel is equipped with air conditioning, satellite TV LC and free Wi-Fi. For fitness lovers even far from home, there is a gym with free access from 7:00AM until 11:00PM. There are four meeting rooms with various ceiling projectors and microphones and inside the hotel there are the Manin Garden, my favorite place of the whole structure, and the Manin Restaurant with its regional, Italian and international cuisine.

I would like to make a special mention of the Garden. I found a place of great peace in the Milanese jungle, it came down a gentle drizzle and, closing my eyes, seemed to be in a Zen garden where you can meditate. Don’t miss a visit, if you stay there or if you go to have lunch at their restaurant.

Real gem of the hotel is the Panoramic Suite & Pool which, in addition to offering a staggering view of the top floor of the Duomo and the Indro Montanelli Gardens, is a real jewel of luxury and prestige. Equipped with a large terrace with veranda including a small pool with whirlpool (heated in winter) for two is the perfect cadeau for a romantic luxury weekend for your sweetheart.

Imagine being in your room and decide to surprise your girlfriend / boyfriend with a midnight swim … The pool completely decorated with lighted candles with petals floating on the water and two glasses of champagne overlooking the Duomo. No doubt you will open a permanent break in the heart of the other person.

So if you have to stay in Milan for business or pleasure, I recommend the Hotel Manin without any doubt. It ‘s the perfect choice for location and quality of services offered!

Technology | Sony α77 II camera

One of the two most fashionable and glamorous months of the year came in the middle of its journey, with stop in Milan.

Eccentric clothing, must have accessories and trends that must be discovered and observed carefully, as each season the fashion capitals have the eyes of the world focused on. The catwalks are the masters and around them wheel the corollary of trendsetters, influencers and photographers.

And the latter “import” from the streets what is most hot and cool that can be seen in circulation. The art, the creativity and passion of street style photographers absolutely requires the support of a powerful and decisive camera.

Perfect is the jewel created by Sony, the v that promises high performance and flawless results. With a fine and fast focus and with the last generation autofocus, this camera gives optimal results even in moving subjects, enhancing the sharpness and intensity.

The α77 II display tilts to better adapt to vertical shots and more imaginative angles while the built-in image stabilization works even when the shutter is pressed halfway to focus. Perfect for street shoots thanks to its maximum resistance to dust and moisture, it is also an ideal tool to shoot videos with the continuous phase detection. I recommend trying the continuous tracking and focusing on moving subjects, you’ll be impressed.

BIONZ X ™ processor lets you get unmatched detail and noise reduction and on it can be mounted mount lenses A. The lens that I use and that you see in the picture has a perspective 1650.

Nothing beats this unique product of Sony.

It’s Couture baby | Paris, what to see through Couture time

Paris, Paris. You always a such bright and good idea in every moment of the year. During Haute Couture fashion week, Men's fashion week and Ready To Wear fashion week, the Ville Lumière is at its maximum shine and the air if full of magic and trend.

I never miss to have a few free time while there to discover new places or simply to be sitting in Place des Vosges or eating an Eclaires...

Fashion | Weoo bag

Quando mi chiedono quale sia uno degli aggettivi chiave che caratterizzano una moda influente e creativa, senza dubbio la mia risposta è personalizzata.

Customizzare un accessorio o un capo vuol dire imprimergli la propria impronta, il proprio essere e la propria arte. Fa liberare ciò che siamo. Ciò che indossiamo deve essere la nostra parola anche quando siamo in silenzio. Poter dare qualcosa di sé a qualcun altro è una delle cose più belle che possiamo fare e lo stesso è valido anche per un oggetto modaiolo.

Ed è proprio alla base del concetto del personalizzazione che si fonda il brand Weoo , creato dal designer Andrea Calvani e che ha la sua sede nelle Marche. Questa azienda italiana che idea e produce le proprie borse interamente nel nostro paese, si è appunto specializzata nel portare sul mercato borse personalizzabili, realizzate in maniera artigianale. Sul sito di Weoo è infatti possibile comporre e personalizzare la propria borsa scegliendo tra i modelli Wecona e Wegirl.

Wecona è la perfetta city bag, ideale per la routine lavorativa e per coloro che, per necessità personali, escono di casa la mattina per farne rientro la sera. Capiente, grintosa e di forte impatto, Wecona può contenere al suo interno tutto il necessario per la donna in carriera, la madre tuttofare e la ragazza decisa a conquistare il proprio posto nel mondo. Wegirl invece è la vezzosa di casa Weoo. Dalla forma più contenuta ed estremamente femminile, è la compagna ideale per una cena con le amiche, per un appuntamento galante a due o per la serata a piedi nudi sulla spiaggia mentre si danza intorno al fuoco con il rumore delle onde.

Ciò che attrae di questo brand nostrano e che lo eleva ad eccellenza italiana è la scelta dei materiali e dei tessuti  impiegati. Per la pochette vengono utilizzati jeans, rete, nylon, il glitter di Limonta e il tessuto artigianale con misto lana e lurex. Per realizzare la scocca invece è stata selezionata una miscela di materiale in EVA ( Etilene Vinile Acetato) reticolata espansa di elevata qualità. Essa infatti ha una superficie molto morbida al tatto che attutisce l’impatto degli urti, prevenendo lacerazioni, è molto leggera, impermeabile, antibatterica, antimuffa e soprattutto resiste al deterioramento del tempo e degli agenti esterni e atmosferici.

I materiali e i colori intercambiabili rendono Wecona e Wegirl due imperdibili must nell’armadio di qualsiasi amante della moda, fashionista e influencer. E’ sufficiente infatti cambiare colore o tessuto della pochette per adattarla al proprio mood giornaliero, seguendo il proprio stile interiore.

Di grande nota è il fatto che le lavorazioni di ogni borsa vengono eseguite interamente nelle Marche, amalgamando al meglio la tradizione artigianale con le tecniche avanguardistiche di lavorazione offrendo quindi al cliente un prodotto finale di estremo pregio.

E tu che Weoo sei oggi?

Fashion Week | My Streetstyle 2015

Le settimane della moda e la magia che recano con loro.

Gli attimi intensi, vibranti. I giorni che perdono la concezione del tempo tra una sfilata e un evento. E proprio ora che sto preparando la valigia per Milano Moda Uomo che mi giro a guardare con emozione e gratitudine ai ricordi delle settimane della moda del 2015.

Una carrellata di immagini che mi riportano alla mette profumi, colori e sensazioni. Se chiudo gli occhi mi sembra di riviverle. Per Marcel Proust era il profumo soffice e caldo di una madelaine per riportarlo durante l’infanzia mentre io osservo una foto e viaggio nel tempo…
