Gucci Resort



Frida Giannini presented the Resort Collection and I totally adored it. All black and white with splashes of bright color and a rock vibe it was also very 50's inspired. And so we don't forget this is a resort collection there were also bamboo and coral prints to ad a summer note to the full skirts. I loved everything about from sexy shoes to the retro sunglasses. Here some of my favorite looks.

PS. On a more personal note I'm leaving for London today (watch out TopShop) for three weeks so the posts may be more sporadic and small or completely invisible! But after visiting England I'm heading for New England and then I fear I won't be able to post there at all. But I'll keep you posted.

Look Of The Week: Nancy Drew

You know how everybody has an inner child? Well I don't, I have an inner tween. That's why I love Hannah Montana, list Aquamarine as one of my favorite movies and why I'm very exited about the new Nancy Drew movie. Nancy (played by Teen Vogue cover girl Emma Roberts) is my inspiration for the look of the week. In a movie were they style LA girls as the worst kind of fashion offenders - the ones that think they are fashionable - Nancy stands out with her old-fashioned style and darling clothes.

Shakira's New Vid

Like I told you ages ago Shakira has purple hair in her new video Las De La Intuicion or Pure Intuition. I liked the song but didn't really liked the video. It's like she tried to be trendy but it kind of backfired. Well, see for yourself.

Carolina Herrera Resort


Carolina Herrera presented her Resort collection and like a late summer party it was filled with delightful little details and unexpected elements. It was very colorful, not middle-of-July hot colors but more in an afternoon tea party in August way. There were a lot of prints balanced by the simplest black or white sandals and pretty dresses. But the clear stand out were the violet-prints that adorned the last pieces, they were delightfully summer.

Ashley Olsen: Greatest Hits


Yes! It's time to give darling Ashley Olsen the greatest hits treatment. I must admit I was an Olsen Twin fan even before they were fashion icons. Yes I own all their around the world movies and like them! And I always liked Ashley a little (very little) bit more than Mary Kate because she is more classic. I adore the huge shades, the huge bags, the crazy scarfs, the little Dior Homme jackets and the leggings worn like actual trousers. Nobody can pull that look but the Olsens. And I love that they are always drinking Starbucks! So now some of my favorite Ashley looks (specially everyday clothes) and stay tuned for MK's greatest hits.

Hilary Duff's Stranger Vid

This is Hilary Duff's new video for the song Stranger. Not my favorite song from her album Dignity, that would be Gypsy Woman, it's still good. My fave outfit is the shiny dress she wears in the club near the end of the song. Wasn't this going to be a continuation of With Love? This wasn't it, was it? Because if it was I didn't get it at all. What do you think?
