Some golden rules...

I will start a series about style and to make ALL understand that has nothing to do with fashion…I got inspired by a book I founded on my book shelves…

So….first of all we have always to remember what Mademoiselle Chanel used to say…”Fashion fades style remains…”

Any stylish woman must know :

How to organize her wardrobe….So buy things that you like and that fit you!(never a size bigger or smaller)!!!Never!

How to invest in her fundamental pieces…- the classic trench ,little black dress etc - and also how to innovate…

How to buy eccentric things…if you really like something don’t think to much just take it home…

The importance of shoes…shoes shoes shoes always!

The power of the accessories ….they give you the salt and pepper to your outfit

That she needs a good tailor

HOW NOT TO BE A FASHION VICTIM – never let yourself taken away by the “new trends”

That not all that costs is also beautiful….Some nice bracelets bought in some oriental market can be wear like a diamond bracelet

How to match different clothes

HOW TO BE IMPERFECT!!!! We have to understand that we cant be always perfect as we go for a photo session !!!

Gone with the cloud.....

The ash cloud took me off….

Girls I miss you all so much…but I had so many things to do…K. married….i was stuck with that thing…then work then uni….sometimes I think I can’t do it anymore….

Something good happen… you know when a door is closing another is opening right in front of your eyes…But later I will tell you about that….something veryyy funny happened….

And the last thing I wanted was this cloud….that made all crazy!!! Specially at work…God nothing happened!

If we survived the earthquakes that were…this cloud thing…we will survive even in the future with God’s will….

We shouldn’t be afraid of nature…I think we should be more afraid about ourselves and of what human beings can do…

This days that I stayed in contact with a lot of people…I realized that people have no idea of what style means…and I think I should write about that….mmmm

Miss you all girls!!!

Kisses and hugs to all!

I am so curious what you all wrote…can’t wait….to read your posts…

Remember when it rained...

I got a flu….nothing new for this season…the fact is that I am alone and nobody to make me a cup of tea…. K. I send her to Milano at the language school….and here I am…back in the kingdom that I share with Hermes…

And this rain that doesn’t stops anymore….at least I feel somebody next to me… he may be the cure…I don’t know…

Now that I am stuffed in bed I will try to post more…and read the others blog because I really miss it!!!

Until the next meeting I send you all this song….i got it from mister mistery…

MISSED ME?

Back on track!!!:D :D :D

I think I own an explanation to all my friends…. I hidden myself in one overprotecting cocoon to heal myself and to get rebirth so from now on... like a phonix bird to reborn from my ashes…here I am stronger and with a heart open…..

IS MADAME BUTTERFLY DEAD?

In my life I had the opportunity to travel a lot and to see different parts of the world… and is the only way to discover myself but I have to recognize that I keep special in my heart Asia…

If in the oriental world all is hidden by a veil ,behind thick sienacolor walls too keep away the hot sun and with a smell of strong incense that it makes u feel they hide something from your eyes in Asia all is seen but not understood… and I refere myself here to the East Asia- South Korea and Japan of the most fascinating countries and cultures I ever met….

First contact with the Far East culture was trough the book of James Clavell “Shogun”~ Japanese culture and society organization…after this was the “Memoirs of a Geisha” both the book and the movie…(I always think that the books are better then the movies)

And so my job gave me the opportunity to go to Japan for 2 months last fall…

I think it was the place that had the biggest impact on me…from the superfast trains to the wonderful gardens,from the traditional geisha to the new ones…from the kabuki theater to the stadium concerts…

It seamed like mixing 2 world in such a perfect order…Old with new....evolution with regression…

But is there something that regressed? Are the manga cartoons a regression of the Japanese art?because this influenced a lot the young teenagers from Tokyo as I saw…

Where I wanted to get is to the “new doll girls”~harajuku that seam they get a lot of fans even in Europe…Clearly seen on the streets….Huge wedge heels, black outfits,scary~crazy hair,a porcelain face and lots of mascara and eyeliner….

For myself I prefer a traditional Maiko with their white painted face and red lips….

I can’t deny the fact that beside this “misunderstood teenagers”( I don’t know who doesn’t understand them…the society or themselves?mah…) the Japanese women are very feminine..almost always wearing a skirt and small heels.With a makeup that you never see but you know is there…

But when you compare this petite ladies with the “manga dolls”you ask yourself is madame butterfly dead?

I think the answer stays in the the mix between evolution and regression but where should we put this 2 words evolution for a manga/harajuku or regression for maiko? Or viceversa…Each should put it where he likes more…Degustibus non discutandum…..

Now my life is taken me again to East Asia but this time to Seoul….i just cant wait to see what this new experience will learn me…

Until then enjoy “Un bel di”~Madame Butterfly –G.Puccini…

Don’t walk away until you are melted by a dream…..

When dreams stop and we feel like sleeping even if we are awake….is the clear sign we have to move on from what we are doing,hoping and dreaming…

From a couple days I detach myself from all and I am staying in a corner of my life,of a room and I analize…me…all those who are around here….or were….

I realize that I grow up much this late time and I feel now I got the force to fly away much higher then before…..

Something big will happen in my life that there is about to change me…but in the same time I laugh what could change me more???!!!

I like one thing that I am straight in my beliefs when you have nothing more to give just leave…and admit it…just move like the wind moves the nomads towards west….

And I advice all not to change things that faith or somebody else may have decided for you…don’t rise in a rebellion..leave it like that…because all things happen for a reason even if we like it or not…

And as always no regrets..because I helped a lot of people and their happiness makes me keep the best part of this story…

Spring brought me this feeling of getting started again…I think that if this would have happened in winter I would have stayed and cry like I did before. But this windy warm evening that is bringing the clouds for the first spring tempest makes me feel so alive…

The park that is in front of my balcony gets greener and greener day by day and the ipod is shuffling some wonderful slow songs like this one….

Doesn’t this touches your heart??? This kind of songs that make me feel better and they make me try to smile a little….
