Trendy loafers for your September outfits
September and October are strange months as you never know what to wear. Sometimes, it seems that summer never ends; others, we need to go for sweaters and pullovers. For these mid-seasons I have thought of loafers, those we bought in spring, maybe coloured, to pair with many outfits, casual and chic, easily with jeans and jackets, perhaps less with dresses and skirts, you will think. Instead, they will amaze us more with thsoe looks that no one expected. Discover them with me on the blog page, trendy loafers for your September outfits
How to style a dress for your body type
Sometimes you want to wear a light and cute dress but then that obsessive thought prevents you and drags you into an absurd mental vortex where absurd prejudices rule. Like the one that says “it is not suitable for your body” chased by “it’s too girlish for you” or by “you need to hide the extra pounds” or who knows what other weirdness that goes through your head to get you straight into the usual pair of jeans or extra-large pants.
Those times, you just need the perfect outerwear to change your mood, the one that enhances your body assets to make you feel good with yourself and with others. Combined with the dress that still grabs a smile in the image reflected in the mirror to create the right outfit for a pleasant evening in good company.

The puffed sleeves that will surprise you
The first time I saw the puffed sleeves I immediately thought of Grendizer, of the electronic boomerangs he had on the shoulders. Do you remember him? For this reason, I thought I would have never worn puffed sleeves. Then, this spring, after the invasion of lots of tops with voluminous details on the shoulders, I began to get used to this new trend and I understood what they were for. To better define the body shape! The shoulders seem wider and consequently the waist seems tighter and overall we look more like a nice hourglass. And you can interpret them in a more personal style, by combining with what you like most.

Garçonne style after 40
Dear friends! On this gloomy November day, which makes me a little nostalgic, I want to talk about the garçonne style, a style that reminds me of my adolescence. I still like this trend that starts from menswear to turn it into women clothing. It is a style that comes from the elegant fashion of the younger boys and also from the slightly dandy one – and here it is right to recall one of my myths, David Bowie, when he was known as the White Duke for his unique and very elegant style. Blazers, men’s trousers, trench coats, white shirts, in short, all those garments that belong by right to the universe of your partner and that can be interpreted in many ways for this fall fashion, even to create the look for the office of us women over 40 and over 50.

I am referring to the long cardigan that is rightly becoming part of the must haves in our wardrobe. The fact is that the mid-seasons tend to lengthen, then, on certain days, in the space of a few hours, we go from hot to cold temperatures. So as not to be unprepared for these changes, let’s wrap ourselves in a wool cardigan, or in a light knit duster!
These garments can be easily adopted by all women, with light and sparkling dresses inherited from the summer or with the adorable jeans that follow us in every season. Click on the link to discover how to wear the long cardigan this fall!

What a bore wearing the same uniform every day! I could not do it, I would get depressed.

How to wear this autumn colour palette after 40
How much light and joy on the catwalks of this Fall fashion! Such a rich colour palette has never been seen before in colder months! Brilliant I would say, especially for those like me who love colours and patterns, so special to give some brightness to the darkest days of the year.
But what I like most about this coloured fashion is that there is really a special colour for everyone, the one that flatters any complexion! The colours worn by the beautiful girls on the catwalk tell of warm lands and autumn woods through the greens and the browns, but also of cold and electric environments: the fluorescent yellow and the spicy curry shade that tends to orange, the powder blue and the electric blue, the Ferrari red and the wine red, the powder pink and the brightest sorbet pink, but also the delicate shade of the lilac.

How to dress up your favourite denim items
Denim clothes are always on fashion. For that special colour that matches so easily with everything, for the latest trends that mix styles and pair common fabrics with the most precious cloth. But above all because there are denim trousers for all body shapes and budgets. And for many other reasons too, that still lead us to have at least 4 or 5 pairs of denim pants in the closet. You will never get bored with them, you will reuse and transform them, or simply keep at the back of the drawer, together with the sweet memories of youth.

The animalier print is back to tempt you
The animalier print is back! I could not but talk about it, because it’s really everywhere. A few days ago, while I was having a stroll along the famous Viale Ceccarini I really felt I was at the zoo.
