ALEXANDER MCQUEEN LEATHER JACKET, BALMAIN TUXEDO COAT, POP PHONES. GOTHIC MAKEUP & EYESHADOW. ASIA FASHION.
Hello, hello, baby, you called? I can’t hear a thing I have got no service, in the club, you see, you see.
Wha-Wha-What did you say, huh? You’re breaking up on me.
A fashion blogger’s paradise: LuisaViaRoma let me style and model clothing from their boutique. Here’s what I wore (it’s one of my favorites from my Styling Lab):
Black and white, wool cloth tuxedo jacket: Pierre Balmain (get it here)
Vintage printed crepe de chine skirt and top: Caterina Gatta
Blue belt, satin on leather: Fausto Puglisi (similar to this)
Woven neon bracelet: Carolina Bucci (buy it here)
Retro handset accessory: Pop Phones
My blue lips match my blue crepe-de-chine dress by Vionnet.
Il Duomo (Florence’s famous cathedral) has an eerie glow at night.
Ruffled leather jacket: Alexander McQueen
Neon peep-toe pumps: Casadei (get them here)
Gold nappa clutch: Rochas (they also have a tote)
Seba did a Gothic monk look — appropriate, for the dark cathedral. He’s wearing Rick Owens everything, and necklaces by Andrea Giunti.
Do you prefer my Firenze4Ever photos from this year, or 2011? You can see all my Italy and Europe coverage in this category.
A peek at what goes on behind the scenes. I’m grateful for my assistant Sara, who helped me in and out of high heels.
Thanks to Luisaviaroma, Sebastiano and I stayed in a 5-star hotel, the Savoy. The doorman wore a top hat!
Our window overlooked the antique carousel, near the Piazza della Repubblica. V-fingers to that.
PS: Thanks to We are Hype, a new community site for fashion lovers, for featuring me in an interview and Lookbook. And to Moov Magazine for interviewing me about fashion and business.
Also, major Chinese website Sohu featured me in an article about top fashion bloggers. If you spot me in press, can you kindly let me know? Send me an email or a tweet, thanks!
Do you like the Italian and international clothing brands that I’m wearing? How do they compare to the Japanese / Goth designers I usually feature?
