Just a brooch for a look on the fly

A bunch of pics taken on the fly... and this outfit was created on the fly too! I chose this for a dinner at friends' home. Lately I've got less and less time for me, I don't know about you... So, I often have to rush from a commitment to another, through all over the town and I can stop just at night, when I go to my confy bed and I sleep at last!!!! :)

So, also this outfit is born this way: on the fly. Thanks to Coco and her blessed little black dress! I only wore that, and a long cardigan I purchased with THIS SKIRT at Benetton. To characterize the outift I pinned to the front a large fabric flower brooch. 

I believe the result is simple and fine, very nice. What do you think about?

Foto scattate al volo.... come al volo è stato creato questo look per una serata tra amici, a cena a casa di uno di noi. Non so voi, ma io ho sempre meno tempo per me, così spesso mi tocca correre da un impegno a un altro, da una parte all'altra della città e riuscire a fermarmi solo alla sera quando tocco letto e finalmente dormo! :)

Così anche questo look nasce così: al volo. Con un tubino nero che salva sempre (sia lodata Coco) e un lungo cardigan che avevo acquistato insieme a QUESTA GONNA da Benetton. A caratterizzare l'outift, una grande spilla a fiore in stoffa, appuntata sul davanti. 

Il risultato mi è parso semplice e fine, molto gradevole, voi che ne pensate?

Little black dress for daytime

The little black dress is one of the most versatile garments ever existed.
I already wore it in a romantic and vintage-look way (CHECK OUT THIS POST).
Now I'm showing my daytime use of it: with a pair of freak high sneakers and a colored purse, the dress allows us feeling confortable and cared.
This purse is an old DIY of mine... do you like it? By the way, I didn't forget the fringed tee DIY I promised you! I hadn't the time to organize my notes and sketches to show clearly to you how to do!
But now I've done that and the step-by-step instructions are arriving!!! ;)
Meanwhile, what do you say about this outfit and this purse? Do you like it?

Il tubino nero è uno dei capi più versatili che siano mai esistiti.

La petite robe noire

You can't really understand how much is useful and important until you own that: the little black dress is an extremely versatile and confortable garment, perfect for any occasion and with any accessory. You can wear it from morning to evening without being neither too much nor inappropriate nor understated. Do you already own one?

So here it is, Sunday evening I matched it this way. Having been at sea, I needed something let my body free enough; unfortunately the weather turned bad: the wind started pulling and it was also cold... In short, a dip in the middle of the autumn, again! :(

Despite of this, I wasn't discouraged and... go ahead with bare legs! I'm lucky because I don't suffer cold at legs: I cover on the top... So, what to do, exhuming a coat???

For goodness sake, not at all. I solved this way: a long sleeve sweatshirt worn sideways, in my favourite pink, and a woolen vintage shawl in the same colour, with long fringes... To sofisticate that, I completed the look with a quilted purse and a jewelry set of pearls....

In short, Chanel was right a century ago: the little black dress is one of those timeless garments every woman must have in their own closet...

How do you match it?

Non si può capire quanto davvero è utile e fondamentale finchè non se ne si possiede uno: il tubino nero, o little black dress o petite robe noire che dir si voglia, è un capo estremamente versatile e comodo, adatto ad ogni occasione e con qualsiasi accessorio. Si porta tranquillamente dal giorno alla sera senza essere mai nè eccessive nè fuori luogo nè sottotono. Voi ne avete già uno?
