THE LOOK

DENIM

I've never worn jeans to work. When you think about it, I have, maybe, four pairs of jeans in my closet… if we don't count those goal jeans that I keep there just in case one day I manage to fit into them ;- )

I mean, If you actually think about it, I haven't worn jeans in the middle of the week for the past 10 years (at least!) not dark ones, black or white ones, expensive or cheap ones.

It's not like I have something against jeans, god forbid, it's actually the opposite. Jeans are "too cool" and that's exactly the thing! It's not them, it's me.

HIGH MAINTENANCE

(… Or image, patterns and everything in between)

A few weeks ago I met a friend for dinner. The evening began, of course, with my favorite game "Where did you buy that?" And after one got an answer regarding the other's outfit, we jumped into the conversation.

BARGAIN HUNT

My mother always says "you can't buy good taste". I agree with her.

Those who know me know that one of my favorite sports is bargain hunting. I reckon if there was an official bargain hunting competition, I would win the title of ''2 for a 100 long distance champion'' At least! ;- )

It probably doesn't seem like it and there are probably people who say "That one? Bargains? That fancy pants has probably never seen the inside of a market in her life" … But it's the truth.

THE LOOK

CULOTTES

Recently I've been finding myself facing a lot of doubts. The newspaper headlines and media sites highlighting the worsening security issues in our state and the streets seem tense and somewhat angry, so publishing leisure and fashion posts suddenly seemed a little strange and out of place.

On the other, it's precisely in times like these that there are those who seek an out from these harsh feelings, a kind of optimistic place to stay in…

Personally, I do not like to be angry and frustrated. Not in life and not with clothes.
