Cape Or Jacket? That Is the Question. I Chose Both!

Cape. When I was in Paris with Harmont & Blaine I fell in love with it (Do you remember?). I’m talking about the blanket jacket, a cape-jacket, that looks like a cape… but it’s a jacket!(and much more comfortable to wear… I wrote about capes and ponchos in this post). In , Paris, I tried on one with black and camel geometric pattern, but eventually I chose that one that I’m wearing in the pics. It has a beautiful palette and the cat perfectly fits! What do you think?

Culotte Pants: The Ultimate Guide

Culotte Pants. I’ve already told you something about culotte pants in a post along with palazzo pants, a while ago, saying that they were new trends for this year./span>. And that’s exactly what happend, you can see every day more culotte pants in the streets. So, many of you have been writing to me to know how to match this kind of trousers. (even more after my appearence on Detto Fatto!). Culottes are not easy to wear, that’s a fact…

Culotte Pants: The Ultimate Guide

Before showing you some cool outfits in which culottes with different colors and shapes are perfectly matched, I’d like to highlight the fact that they can look good also on quite short and curvy girls.

– IF YOU ARE NOT VERY TALL: Always match them with heels and choose high waist (leaving the waist visible, of course). In this way, you’ll get an optical illusion and your figure will look slimmer and taller. Try to add a short brim hat to gain a few extra inches. ;)

– IF YOU ARE NOT VERY SLIM: Choose dark colors or denim culottes. Look for slightly flared culottes, they’ll help harmonize your figure and proportions. If you choose wide culottes, it’ll look like you’re wearing a skirt!

– IF YOU’RE ALWAYS COLD: if you can stand cold weather, here’s a nice little trick (that I’ve already told you in THIS VIDEO ): just wear leggings under your culottes. Make sure they don’t show up when you sit down! Besides, you can wear wool socks: if you keep foot warm it will be easier to go out with undressed calf. Word of girl scout! :)

A Christmas Present For You By Irene’s Closet and L’Occitane: How to Get It!

A Christmas Present For You. Girls!! I’ve been thinking about this for years! And finally my dream comes true, thanks to L’Occitane! This Christmas I have a present for all the girls that follow me. :))) In collaboration with L’Occitane I made a Christmas gift box with some lovely drawings (designed to be used as jewel case, or to contain makeup, cards, etc… That’s so cute!). Inside, you’ll find 5 little tubes of hand cream, with different fragrances, that look like they’ve just been stolen by the bag of a painter.

During my trip in Provence with L’Occitane and later during my experience at L’Occitane boutique in Milan, I found out that L’Occitane hand cream is the most sold in the world. People buy one every few seconds, every day all over the world. And I’m going to give it to you for Christmas! :)))

Blue Long Dress and Blue Hat. My Outfit Feels Blue Today!

Blue long dress. On the runaways, for this winter, we saw lots of maxi dresses, especially in boho version, between romantic and hippie: beautiful, feminine and as I like to say they can always “sort out the look”, they don’t even need too much effort with accessories, they just look flawless as they are. Recently I wore a maxi blue dress that i find amazing!

Fist, the charming print with different blue tones, secondly the perfect cut with details that remind me a dress from another time but with a definitely contemporary mood. So, to consolidate that mood I decided to match the long blue dress with a wide brim boyish hat end a blue clutch, very feminine. What do you think about this outfit? I’m looking forward to reading your comments. Hugs and kisses!
