Milan Fashion Week Street Style: the Latest Trends According To Fashion People!

Milan fashion week street style. As I was walking toward Dolce & Gabbana Fashion Show,having a special ability to chat even with walls, I start a playful conversation with a person that was accidentally walking by the location of the show. What he said to me resume what Milan Fashion Week has become in the last few years: “the real runaway is the street”. Well that’s true! The photographers at the entrance of fashion shows are sometimes more than those among the audience of the actual catwalks. The reason why is that the outfits outside the official shows have become as interesting as those on the runaway.

So the members of the staff, bloggers, photographers, random people, passers-by and fashion addicted have become the further protagonist of the fashion week: in Milan and in the rest of the world (someone travel around the world to be photographed at the most important fashion shows). Fun, business, pure exhibitionism, desire to show their fashion style to the world or… maybe they are just there to see the fashion shows and they couldn’t care less. There’re many different mechanisms that move Street Style, they can be right or wrong.

Turning Into The Woman You Want to Be. Black Opium by YSL

Turning into the woman you want to be. September is the month of changes: in the same way you change your hairstyle after summer, you change your outfits for fall and your beauty routine to prepare for the first cold, fall is also the right time to change your perfume. To tell the truth , the relationship between each woman and her perfume is different: someone, for example, grow fond of one single fragrance and would use it till the end of time. Well, I find it extremely reductive: the world of perfumes is a huge universe, always full of new ideas and it’s a pity to limit our horizon like this. Since I’ve opened my blog, I’ve “trained my nose” with thousands of different fragrances, learning how to change your perfume according to the message I want to convey, to my outfit, my mood or what I want to do that day. So, if you’re in a romantic mood, you need a delicate and super feminine fragrance, distinctly floral. If you’re going to face a full of expec then you need a stronger scents, possibly with spicy notes. If you feel bold and sexy, if you feel like a queen you need a resolute fragrance, that express our self-confidence, pure rock but feminine and glamour at the same time.

This category of perfumes is perfectly represented by Black Opium, the new fragrance for women by YSL, the first Coffee Floral eau de toilette that contains in the same bottle strong notes like coffee, blackcurrant and musk with super feminine scents like jasmine and neroli. Plus you can smell energizing essences like tangerine or pear. You’ll be addicted after the first drop!

It’s a fragrance for a glamour woman that wants to seduce, that at the same time want to be feminine but determined and confident. You only need some drops of this perfume to get this result? It’s not a magic wand but a fragrance that helps us to enter this mood and to be the woman we want to be. You can be that woman not only with a cool outfit and the perfect makeup but also with the right perfume at the right time.

And today I turned into the woman I wanted to be and that’s it!

Breakouts and Skin Imperfections But You Are Not a Teenager? I’ve Tried Vichy Normaderm!

Breakouts and Skin Imperfections? The Answer is Vichy Normaderm!

Remedy for breakouts and imperfections. When I was a teenager, I couldn’t wait to grow up to stop fighting against those hated pimples and all skin imperfections. Sadly, my battle is not over, it’s even worse! I already know that my teenage followers are struggling against this kind of skin problems but, what about grown-ups like me that still have issues with imperfections, pores, oily skin and breakouts???

Often, after adolescence, imperfections continues to appear, especially on chin, jaw and neck areas with shine and uneven complexion. Not to mention enlarged pores, spots and dehydrated skin. Bye bye soft teen skin (even with some pimple here and there!)

During adolescence even if you were sick and tired of acne and breakouts, you had a crumb of comfort repeating yourself “It’s just a phase, we’re all on the same boat, you have to accept it!”. But if you grow up and skin problems are still haunting you, then it’s not that easy to psychologically overcome it. When some pimples pop out on my chin I always get mad. Why? Why again!? Why these imperfections on my skin? Is there a remedy? I’m here to talk about that.

Breakouts and Skin Imperfections But You Are Not a Teenager? I’ve Tried Vichy Normaderm!

MAIN CAUSES OF POST-ADOLESCENCE SKIN IMPERFECTIONS:
– hormonal variations
– genetic predisposition
– bacterial flora
– lack of sleep
– smoking
– stressful lifestyle
– UV radiations

SOLUTIONS
What can we do? Use specific products for this problem, able to minimize imperfections, dehydration, enlarged pores and uneven skin complexion.

So I tried some Vichy products that you’ve certainly heard of. I’ve always heard good things about it, so I decided to test the new Normaderm line by Vichy. It’s a line specifically designed for all those non-adolescents with skin impurities, imperfections, shine, dehydrated and uneven skin. And that’s more!

Fall Outfit with Summer Clothes? Yes, I can!

Fall Outfit. Fall has not arrived yet, but temperatures are slowly changing and our desire of autumn outfits is every day stronger (but let’s be honest: we want summer to never end!). Since it’s too soon for season change and it’s premature to wear some fall clothes (Have you seen my wishlist of the items that I want for fall?!), what we need to do is to wisely mix summer clothes that we already have in our closets and create incredibly smart fall outfits! :) That’s exactly what I did a few days ago, in Milan, for the launch event of the fragrance for men, Sauvage by Dior.

Fall Outfit with Summer Clothes? Yes, I can!

Since the theme was “Sauvage” I decided to add a touch to stay on the topic! So I choose a leopard print blazer and I matched it with a black stretch leather skirt (See how to match pencil skirts!), a yellow top and a pair of sandals with lots of straps (that I adore because they’re incredibly comfortable!). So, what about this look? Let me know :)

Olympéa by Paco Rabanne: My Goddess Look.

Olympéa Paco Rabanne. I’ve always dreamed to be an old-style woman. Stong, Sogno di essere come una donna d’altri tempi. Forte, bold, sensual and feminine: a divine woman that express her determination with grace and self-confidence. Olympéa by Paco Rabanne is the fragrance that represent all that: a feminine and sensual perfume for modern-days Cleopatras, goddess on earth.

A fragrance that smells like contrasts: salty vanilla and floral notes. Aquatic, fresh, feminine notes mixed with stronger scents: ginger, sandal, green tangerine and jasmine.

The bottle is extremely precious: created by master Marc Ange, it combines ancient and modern aesthetic principles. A perfect circle, feminine curves but modern geometries. Details recall Greek statues. Columns and capitals are part of the setting that I chose for my shooting, that’s my interpretation of this fragrance for demigoddess. I strongly recommend you to try it at the first opportunity.

Enjoy the photos and I’m curious to read your comments! HERE watch the new film Olympéa.
