A shoulder to stand on

Stimulating the senses, Sebastian

Sebastian's attention to detail is riveting. His mix of checks and paisley, brilliant. His combination of accessories couldn't be more eloquent. They speak of bountiful trips to flea markets here and there. The kind of excursions that reward you with favorite pieces that make every outfit utterly complete.

A Lady and A Gentleman

There were of course many, many, many beautifully dressed people at Pitti, but these two made a lasting impression on my mind. I shot the gentleman first, and later, when I laid eyes on this bellissima donna, a harmonious thread sparkled through my fashion imagination. Summer-white combined with staple colors navy or black. Chic!

When Length Matters

With all the micro minis present on and off the runway, it's nice to see a pavement- grazing skirt now and then. These looks are dazzling! The look above was Florentine aperitivo material. The one below, which I fondly call "day drama," was worn at 12 noon in Milan. When length is more.

The Girl Who Needs No Introduction: Simona

Tiers of Texture

There are rows of reasons why this "prima ballerina" steals the show. 
Two of which?
First, that smile. I would risk a bellyache from indulging in its sheer sweetness.
And secondly, who doesn't like lace and tulle? Especially when delicately layered to the eyes delight. Enjoy the dance.

Right side first

I am a false lefty. I write with my left hand, but, I am ambidextrous with everything else. When looking at this image, I can't help get the sense that this guy is a total righty. His rolled right sleeve; three-ring right tattoo; agenda held firm in his right hand; his left hand tucked away in his pocket; and his gaze effortlessly directed to the right. 

The Bike Ramp

White v-neck t-shirt, khaki bermudas, white tank, jeans and Chuck Taylors. Summer essentials that always look fresh. 

Silver Breeze

Metallics for the summer... adore! The warm summer light makes the shimmer speak a language I love to hear. Delicate reflections as the breeze blows.

Pitti Immagine 76

Before my trip to Capri, I had the immense pleasure of participating in Pitti People, a project conceived in conjunction with this season's Pitti Immagine. Check out Pitti Immagine for more details. Simona, Daniele and myself, along with a great bunch of other Italian bloggers, were charged with the task of shooting the international players who make Pitti what it is, one of the most high profile fashion trade shows on the planet. Our images were then posted daily on a specially built wall on the grounds of the Fortezza dal Basso for all attendees to see. For a look at the fantastic results, head over to Pitti's blog.
