It's in the sleeve


Origami done right. Combined with a simple "LBD" and leggings, this brightly hued jacket adds dramatic flair.

color explosion on corso garibaldi


Leave it to Amae to usher in the color. First he bolted out of nowhere on his bike. Then a few feet away, Elisa's star burst into view with this tropical mix of color. Spring is in the air!

punk perfecto


Marco, Porta Ticinese, Milano
Marco's mix of punk-style elements are enviable. His iconic Schott Perfecto would make the Ramones proud. The creepers? Purple suede and leopard- too cool for school. His Lucky 13 belt adds a psychobilly vibe. The glasses, sideburns and pompadour offer a rockabilly sensibility, and are the finishing touches to an extremely tight look.

My dear friend Simona Tamassia and I recently established a cooperative called Studio76 with the objective of streamlining our fashion multitasking capabilities. Our first project was an editorial for Made05-Fashion in the World. And, recently we collaborated with YOOX.com for their webzine, the new yooxer. Checkout our street style images there. We'll keep you posted on new projects and happenings!

The Season's Shoulder


Caroline Issa, Managing Director and Publisher- Tank Magazine
Confession: I am totally a girl's girl. I tear up in response to just about every movie I watch. I love magenta pink. And I always find beauty in all of my friends and am not ashamed to declare it. So... I have to admit that I think that Caroline is fantastically beautiful, gracious and sophisticated. No guilty pleasure here- she's a brilliant bird.

Her stride? One word: confident. 
Her mix of patterns? A print dream come true!

Dear Jimmy,
I am sorry that i broke up with you,

Season's Favs

Girl on Via Formentini, Brera
In small doses
a scarf of leopard
a hem of lace
a jewelled brooch for sweetener
makes for a delicious cup of fashion glee 

Stimulating the senses III


Anonymous Traveler, March 30, 2009
Below her skirt rested a number of bags
She was waiting for her boyfriend/husband who showed up shortly after I arrived
I thought that, perhaps, she wore this delightful combination out of the sheer necessity of packing lightly
A great jacket, a wonderful skirt... will carry you a long way
