Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, my lovely blog! And whoever is reading this.
I had an amazing day, actually, it's been two lovely days: I spent all yesterday baking (and I made a pretty amazing profiterol shaped as a Christmas tree, clap clap to me and my second mum/family's friend/idk how to call her lol), had an excellent dinner all together, then had a perfect breakfast and wrapped my presents with my family, had a Christmas lunch with my beloved ones and.. basically we ate a lot.
I also got some beautiful presents, which I'm really grateful for.
I shared these days with the people I love and I couldn't ask for better.

Sweaters - Rock your winter

Sweaters are something I miss during summer time (the only thing I miss actually!!). So, now the time has arrived I'm quite into them.

Can you tell me an outfit which doesn't fit with a sweater? Me neither. 

I selected some I liked during an online shopping session.

Shoot - Von Vonni Transformer Dress

So, recently (ok, not really recently, but I just had the time to select and organize them) I did a photoshoot with the help of two of my bestfriends. One modelled and the other one took the photos, I styled and organized it! :D

Prague

Not fashion related, but i Wanna share some picture I Took while in Prague a month ago.

They're not beautiful And professional photos, I Took them with my iPhone, but I Hope they show a little bit at least how beautiful Prague is.

I spent there 5 days with my best friends, we had SO MUCH fun, you have no idea, but we have also had The chance to see one of The most beautiful city in Europe. 

Let me tell you, at night it feels like a fairytale. A visit is definitely worth it if you're thinking about it, trust me!

Show your thighs - SS14

Yes, that's what designers want their costumers to do for the next season: to show their thighs.

A lot happened on the catwalks this last month, but one topic at time.

Apparently trasparences are taking over and they will not let us hide anything under our clothing anymore.

Women, it's time to work these thighs out and get ready for spring and summer 2014, the fashion shows have spoken.

VOGUE.it

Se c'è qualcosa di più quotidiano come mangiare, bere e respirare, per me, è VOGUE.it . Come sappiamo tutti, il fashion month è finito e se la mia cronologia potesse parlare urlerebbe "hai rotto con questo vogue.it, cambia un po'!".
Beh, cronologia, se c'è un posto con cui non rimanere indietro su alcuno show durante le fashion weeks quello è sicuramente quel sito.
Franca Sozzani, editor in chief di Vogue Italia, ha preso in mano il sito della rivista e l'ha rivoluzionato, facendolo diventare, a parer mio, uno dei migliori siti di moda. Dovrebbe essere in inglese, forse, in modo che tutto il mondo possa visitarlo.
L'organizzazione del sito è impeccabile, tutto quello che cerchi su moda, eventi, beauty lo trovi.
Per chi, come me, non ha ancora ricevuto un invito a nessuna sfilata ma non se ne vuole perdere una, tra Livestreaming e, sopratutto, vogue.it sei apposto! Potresti non essere in prima fila accanto Anna Wintour, Mario Testino e Harry Styles (esempi casuali, ovviamente) ma potresti avere l'occasione di goderti le sfilate direttamente sul letto nel tuo pigiama e felpone (fashionista incoerente, lo so).

Even though it's in italian, to keep it up with fashion weeks, shows, events, I highly recommend VOGUE.it . You may not be front row next to Anna Wintour, Mario Testino and Harry Styles (so random....) but you may have the opportunity to enjoy the shows in your bed with comfy pijiama and oversized hoodie (is this a fashionista speaking?).

LCF experience

I spent 5 weeks in London this summer and I had the time of my life.

This basically sums up everything, but of course a lot happened. I attended 5 short courses at the London College of Fashion: Introduction to fashion industry, Fashion PR&marketing, Fashion Media, Style&Culture and Media styling. 

I fell in love with the atmosphere in that school, I felt so comfortable, learnt so many things, had fun and understood which is the right place for me. 

I genuinely enjoyed going to school, which was the first time it happened to me hahah. 

I also met some amazing people, and hopefully I'll see them again at Uni (finger super crossed!). 

Each course was taken by credited people of the fashion industry. They were completely aware of what they were talking about and they made us feel like a part of it. I never felt useless, they taught us that every role is important and that everyone of us is able to give something to this industry.
I enjoyed every course, I had a great time learning, I felt inspired.

Update - shame on me

Just so you know, I'm deeply disappointed on myself. I promised (to myself) I would have worked on my blog more this summer and I didn't at all.
I spent 5 weeks in London, and they literally flew by, then I came back and right the day after I left to Tuscany to spend some time at the beach with my family, then I headed to Riccione for one of my best friends' 18th bday and then back again at the beach. It's been a fun and not boring summer at all.
Now I'm back in Rome trying to convince myself that it's not going to be the end of the world once school will start.........
During the last weeks I did absolutely nothing productive, even though I have a driver's licence test to study for and some (A LOT) summer work to do for school and on tuesday I'm leaving with my best friends to Prague (so freacking excited eeeeeeeeeeeek!) so before that I'll try doing something, I promise.
I'm making a post about my experience in London (maybe more than one?) because.. it's been the best month in my life. I genuinely had the time of my life.

Paris - Île-de-France part. 1

Hi people! I disappeared for too long and I've no excuses. Actually I do; I've "moved" to London for 5 weeks to attend some courses at London College of Fashion (I'm going to dedicate other posts about this, too exciting to not share it with you, and this is what this blog is about), so I'd been pretty busy with the preparations and everything. This shouldn't have stopped from posting though.. of course.
Anyway, now I'm writing from my room in London and I'm going to talk about my first stop of my trip: Paris. This has litterally been a quick stop.
When buying the tickets to London I saw that I could stop in Paris first for some hours so I said "why not?". So that's what I did.
I left Rome on sunday morning heading to Paris. I arrived around 10 pm so around 11 i was at the Palais Royal Musee du Louvre metro stop.
I'd been to France two times, but, shame on me, since I was 6 the first time and 8 the second time, I was focused just on Disneyland (no regrets though, I'm looking forward to come back there as well). So I basically didn't know Paris at all; and I still don't: i had been walking for litterally 6 hours but there's too much to see.
Sooo, i arrived at my first stop: Musee du Louvre. People who know me know about my passion for museum, my mum used to take me to every museum we saw, while on holiday, in Rome (I'm glad to be born in one of the richest city in terms of history) so, even tho i hated her for that, I love to visit museums and learning things from what I see (I'm such a curious person, you have no idea)..

Fashion blogs - favourites

Hey there! I'm back! I can officially consider myself free from school! I waited a little bit before posting again, as I promised this is time to work on this blog, and I couldnt wait! So let's get into it :)
Today I'm talking about my favourite fashion blogs. I'm a professional blogger reader, I think this 'bloggers' phenonemon is taking the world and I find it amazing; a blog is where thoughts are shared by a normal person, not a journalist or anyone, just a person who wants to share whatever he/she has in mind, his/her passions and interests.
Since this is the start of my journey I wanted to dedicate a post about who has inspired me so far.

Mood

Hi lovely people! It's me again! How surprising :)
Anyway, I've been thinking about this "blog thing" for the last 24 hours and you have no idea how it excites me!!
I don't have much to tell because i spent the last 24 hours studying or at school, so the time to dedicate to the blog is not too much. But i promise i will work out something very soon. I have to take just two exams (philosophy and greek lit uggggg, so much hate) and then i can consider myself free from any school work and I will dedicate myself into this project.
Now, I wanted to say hi so.. hi!
It's almost 9 pm and I had pizza for dinner so I'm definitely in a good mood.
Also, since I'm stuck home studying and I'm not able to enjoy this spring air I had a break from studying and used Polyvore (if you don't know what it is, check it out! It's a drug if you love styling like i do!) and dreamt about being on holiday in any seaside place.. okay i was daydreaming about being in Capri, which is the most amazing thing in this period! So here's my mood :) hope you enjoy!

I found this lovely denim dress and I thought "I can do whatever I want with it! Let's be creative" but the Capri's atmosphere made me think about a casual look so I choose some colorful flat sandals, the amazing Rocco by Alexander Wang in white (one of my favourite bags is the Rocco in black, but I couldnt resist this! I found it perfect.. and I'm obsessed with the Rocco so i couldnt help), the necklace, i think, makes the outfit more trending so i choose it. I wanted also that elegant touch by Capri so these sunglasses fitted with my idea.

I like playing with clothes just like a little girls likes playing those 'wear your doll' games (i've stopped playing them 2 years ago i must admit.. then i found out Polyvore! If this site didnt exist i probably could still be addicted to them hahaha).

Let me know what you think on everything! Tell me if you (yes, you! That person i hope reads my blog!) would like to know something about.. everything! Just tell :)

Im off to revise philosophy, my dad can't wait to hear what I have to say about Kant! I feel so sorry for him lol!

Jessica! 

I leave with some Capri pictures from my holidays there, it's been soooo long! I miss that island!

About.. me

So hi! This is Jessica and.. yes, this is me. 
I've just started my own blog 30 mins ago.. ok no, im lying. Im just a miserable liar. I'm going to be honest; this is probably my 1973284th attempt of starting a blog. I started blogs and then left them dying, alone. Now, I'm not going to assure anybody this attempt will work out, but I'll try. 
The problem was, I believe, I didnt have a topic to write about. Yes, my passion is fashion but that's not the point, lots of people do and there are plenty of blogs about fashion out there. 
Fashion is not just what I'm interested in, it's what I want to do, it's what makes me want to learn from everything around me. 
So, this blog will be about me. And fashion. How are the two things connected? I'll explain. 
Before being a blogger ( hhaha okok, I'm not a blogger since i started 30 mins ago) I'm a professional blog's reader. I read lots and lots of blogs. I daily check my favourite ones and I love the way bloggers express themselfes by their blogs (I'm going to post about my favourite blogs soon!). 
So, as i already said, I'm 18, which means I'm a student, which means Im at that point of life when you have to decide, or at least starting to do it, who you'll be when you'll grow up. It's been already a year since i decided: fashion industry, here I come.
