Instead of a jacket!

So tired of being dependent on jackets!!!

Let me make myself clear =)
Personally If I will not use a jacket, then it must be warm outside and then no need for a jacket, but when the weather slightly changes and you actually do not need a jacket but it is good to have one with you makes me go crazy! And I think it is a good sense of fashion to have an other alternative option to basically jackets!!!

Alternative to jacket could be, basically just a knitted sweater, or together with a vest on top of the sweater, or a unbuttoned shirt with a nice top/t-shirt.

Alternative colors in Christmas!

Red, white and black is the color of Christmas dresses, let us not forget glitter, but there are other colors I would choose, and that is green or blue.

For example this green and blue dress from www.melba.se, it is a simple style but can be dressed up with a fancy blazer and a nice belt.

Benjamin Bixby!

It´s always great when men dare to wear, just like André Benjamin a.k.a. André 3000.

He has and will continue with the clothing line Benjamin Bixby, it is inspired by college football in 1930´s. 

I find it genius!

Make a skirt out of a dress!

My first DIY project online=)

I love to create and hopefully this will be a good start, sorry for the quality but it will only get better.
Ready to turn your dress into a skirt.
What you need is:

• scissor =) I know it is like, "yeah I know" but still I said it.
• pins
• elastic band
• tape measure
• a dress you do not use anymore or do not like anymore
• that is it!

1. Measure how long you want the skirt to be.
2. Make sure that you cut the measured part evenly.
3. Pin the waist part, accordingly to your elastic band, I for instance used a width elastic band because it will be better for the model of the skirt to appear. I pined approximately about 3 cm. Then begin to sew the pined area BUT stop when you have almost 5 cm left to sew, because we need that space to insert the elastic band with a safety pin, then yo may sew the last 5 cm by hand. I am ready to rock this skirt=)

Grazie Marco Mengoni

Thanks to Eurovision Song Contest 2013 in Malmö I have found the male version of me, Mr Marco Mengoni.

Besides his GREAT talent he also has a great sense of style.
Down below you can find his performance in the Eurovision Song Contest, representing Italy in the Final.

Please notice: 
-the navy blue suit: original choice, nice to see that it exists other colors then black when it comes to suits.
-the casio watch: completes the suit elegantly
-the hair: just wow, recommend this hairstyle for men, you can use this model in various ways
-the ear piercings: well I like and also have ear piercing so for me it is really nice

& of course the song and the great performance, Grazie Mr Marco Mengoni, 12 points from Turkey and Sweden goes to Italy =)

 Hope to see you in a summer concert one day =)
