Italian women are always such great inspiration when it comes to dressing in a womanly, but also fresh and edgy way, all at the same time. They don’t pretend to be teenagers, and just radiate with confidence and assumed femininity.
Through reading Garance’s blog, I’ve become obsessed with wearing white, more than once parroting her line: “if I could afford to, I would live in white.”
The shirt with the skirt, here, are very stylish – but I would definitely have gone with different shoes.
WOW! What a powerful image: the person, the dress (esp the hem), the shoes, the stance… I do not usually like the cigarette (is it a cigarette?), but even here, (and I can’t believe I am saying this) it has its place, even its allure. Now this picture is NOT forced; this was not a “look” put together for show (which sometimes has to happen, and I understand and have sympathy for this). Instead, she seems totally in her element. I will be thinking about her all day as I study write. Very inspiring.
Masterclass in how to do a white shirt without a baggy bottom half. Would love it even more with scraped back hair to show off the collar. http://catinacave.blogspot.co.uk/
she searches for the perfect tube of lipstick, a pink or a red, or perhaps a compact, a mirror, to capture the glint of her ruby eye behind the glasses.
Nothing like wearing white in the summer, although I don’t particularly like the asymmetrical skirt. I, too, love mixing white with light browns and camels. And her posture is great!
Really enjoying your stream of pictures from Italy. Italian style is my favorite!
Scott, where do you find all these gorgeous women ? Are they all walking down the streets ? Are they posing for you or is it all natural ?
One beautiful shot after another.
I love wearing white in the summer. I personally don’t do it enough, I know. Honestly, you feel more comfortable in white. Especially anything in natural fibers. This skirt you see above? An easy make on the sewing machine. I’m personally drawn to metallic whites these days. OR a faux white leather. Gosh, how how hot is that with a matching linen or cotton top?
