Layers

Moschino

After a quite warm winter and  no snow at all, we are now having very nice sunny days ( a spring time which isn't so common in the North West of Italy  )


The weather encourages to wear light weight clothes, and soft colours...

Armani

and makes me feel a special joy...( the same probably feels a lizard just waked up, which enjoys its staying under the sun )


The breeze and a stronger light : that's spring!

Twin-set

But, as this is also the season of changings of weather,


for me the best outfit is made of layers ( and that means a cardigan, a shirt and a skirt ).

A bad side of spring? ... The strong light is probably the reason why my photos aren't of a too high quality! I am not used to such a strong light yet!!

  3. Well I can see the clothes are gorgeous and of high quality, this is one the things I appreciate about your blog. Your coat is beautiful. I love the lapels with the stitching, all signs of exquisite taste and refinement. Excellent details on the blouse and skirt. I'd love to see the blouse again sometime to see the front. You look great!

    1. Thanks, Ann! For me the details make the difference in fashion, so, when I can, I buy beautiful items made with care...and, you are right ! There are no photos of the front side of my blouse...I haven't realized!

  4. Yes please show us this lovely blouse from the front too, Dan, it looks gorgeous!
    It feels so good to wear light clothes, doesn't it? And I am glad you finally have the nice spring weather too.
    A bit strange for me as a German to tell that to somebody living in Italy - as you know we Bavarians tends to take over Lake Garda and Northern Italy come spring ;-) We just love it there!

    Have a nice and sunny day,

    1. I think I should show it again ! I How silly of me to forget taking a photo from the front!
      Yes it's strange to see how people can consider the same subject from different points of view! But the differences make the world more interesting!

  5. Yes, this is indeed a beautiful coat. Works very well with your new scarf. I always want my coats to be at least the same length as my skirt/dress. Is that an old fashioned idea? Could very well be as it tooks me ages to get used to wearing black with brown or blue too. I suppose I am old fashioned as you obviously do not have that idea.
    The blouse and skirt are ever so nice. I am looking forward to your next photos of this outfit. Nice brands... Moschino, Twin-set... Yummy.

  6. The fact is that in fashion almost everything is possible, nowadays! I often choose classic clothes, and I think that if I followed the old rules, ( as matching each other handbags and shoes ) my style would be definitely too old!
    The style of most brands I like, though apparently very classic, is quite innovative in fabrics, shapes and colours... Armani often combines blue and black...but I can assure that his blue and also the black are not the common blue and black...
    Yes, I am experimenting new brands recently...just to wear a slightly different style...

    1. I still have some trouble letting go of the old rules sometimes.

  7. Your coat and bag really caught my eye. You do look very classic Italian : ) (This from a gal that lived briefly in Brescia.)

  8. ...are you the gal who lived in Brescia?? ( if YES : ever thought to come back to Italy? If NO : have you ever been to Italy? )
    As someone said...Italy is a crazy country, but beautiful!

  11. Spring has sprung at last! It's really trying here, we have warm days and then cold. They are predicting snow over the weekend, just a dusting though. I really like the back of that top, very cute! And it goes so well with your new bag.

  13. It's already growing too warm for spring layers, here. Booo. I miss them, and it's lovely to see you doing them so well. You look like a very sophisticated angel in your wonderful white coat. So pretty, the bag, everything. I'm with everyone else ... missing the blouse front. Nevermind, we got a picture of your beautiful smile!

  14. Someone recently asked me how I would sum up modern, yet classic, Italian fashion (as while I'm not Italian myself, I am married to a native son of Italy) and I pointed them towards your blog. You really are the living embodiment of the description to me, dear (stylish!) Dan.
