Matchy matchy


I missed last week's post

 

But I wasn't able to prepare one and, besides, the bad  weather and the many rainy days we recently had, didn't help !
In fact my idea was to share something I bought in the end of the season sales and I didn't want it was ruined by the rain!!



I love Armani's style for the discrete elegance of his pret a porter collections,


 for the perfect shapes and the sophisticated shades of colours
(well, I could add many other reasons of course )


When it stopped raining, I found a place which could be a background for the photos


Not in Turin this time, but in the small city where I live


I decided for a sweatshirt and a blue checked shirt underneath.
The shirt is nice but has got ribbons which I don't like when tied up in a bow, and so I often  leave untied...


If you are wondering what is the stuff that I am  wearing around my neck...here it is the answer:I made myself this scarf to match my shoes and bag !


you know, I am in a creative phase at the moment! 
More details on my next post ...

    I didn't realize you were a knitter---how fabulous! And I like that you left the ties undone---they're like a fabric necklace! jodie

      Well, I am not a really able knitter, but sometimes I happen to knit an easy-to-make accessory ...

      It's nice to think that the ties undone can look like a fabric necklace!

    What a good idea to leave the bow untied and over your shirt. Everything I see in these pictures is new hah?? Naughty girl. Been shopping at Armani! Are those gorgeous shoes and perfct bag both by Armani?
    I think you look good in this monochrome outfit. Unusual for you (in a shirt and trousers) but still elegant. I like the snood but I would make it longer so you can put it twice around your neck. That way you can also cover your chest.

      Yes, I have to confess that I was at Armani's for some shopping! Both the shoes, which are very comfortable, and the bag are Emporio Armani...
      The fact is that, the MM outlet is closed at the moment and so I had to find another shop !
      (The second in my list is Armani, followed by Les Copains)

    I adore all of your knits. I agree Armani is such a great label and reliable maker of high quality. Love your shoes, too! I am so glad you did not ruin these in the rain. Your coat is lovely, and that scarf, THAT YOU MADE !!!, is fabulous!
