I'M FAMOUUUUS


Hahahahahahaha no, just joking. This morning I finally found a photo of mine from LFW! I checked a few days after and didn't find anything, so I was like "oh whatever they're never gonna post anything". But they did, just 10 days later. Well that's cool! 
Actually this ain't supposed to be the one and only photo they took of me... altogether, they should be about 10, by 5 different people. At first I didn't ask, I thought that eventually I was gonna find them on some fashion week page. But then, in doubt, I asked the bloggers for their business card and website. Well next year I'm gonna have a business card too with my email address... I want my freakin' pictures at Somerset House pleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaase! :'(
I was so happy this morning when I found this I could've cried! I know it's no fashion week magazine or anything but still it was my first time, so... :)



I look so professional.
With the fw magazine and MFP catalogue.

LFW - day 3


I've been in London for 5 days with my mother and brother, and I tried to enjoy it as much as I could. Since it was the first time for my mother we just went standard and visit the typical places like Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, stuff like that. But luckily my b&b was in Notting Hill, which I hadn't seen last year, so I got the chance to see it and I also went to Portobello Road, which is fabulous because it sells anything that you're looking for. But the best waffle I tasted was on Oxford Street, maaan. My taste buds were doing the conga. Then Piccadilly (duh), Camden, Bloomsbury ('cause my brother lives there), Soho... well Soho is the shit! After I get the high school diploma I think I'm gonna live there and work in some cool store like Size?, Topshop, Supreme or something. Oh, I bought a Supreme hat. How amazing!? And got a new pet, my Air Jordan 4 retro hahaha <3
Last but not least, I went to Somerset House, where the LFW exhibit was held. It was open to the public, so I worn the best clothes I carried with me, my new J's and sunglasses bought in Camden and Primark flower collier, and sneaked inside. It was AWESOOOME it was like living in Tommy Ton's photos! But even better and random bloggers and photographers asked to take pictures of me!!! That was a dream come true! I've always been yearning for such things. Then I met Maria Francesca Pepe, alias MFP, the famous jewerly stylist whose jewels are worn even by Lady Gaga and Rihanna. Plus, she's from my city, so I approached to her, asking for a picture, then told her I loved her works bla bla bla. Then she said "have you seen my expositon?" and I was like NO 'CAUSE I HAVE NO FUCKING PASS so she said I could register myself as a visitor and just go there take a look. But they gave me no pass 'cause I didn't "work in the fashion industry". I had to be at least a blogger (a serious one) to get one... but then a guy came up to me, asked me what was the problem, so I told him that MFP herself said I could see her expo. He talked to the guys and LET ME IN. In an area reserved only to buyers, designers, press etc. ME! I am absolutely nobody in this world but I've got this chance anyway. This made me think a lot and made me realize that, basically, almost everything is possible. Yeah, you just gotta believe in it and shit, but it's true. "No dream is too big, sky's the limit"! ...Lucky strikes are necessary, though. 
I could say more but meh, I've told this story a hundred times!


MFP is lovely <3


Notting Hill/Portobello Road


me and my J's post Somerset House. Ain't they adorable!?!?!?! My £90 sweetpies. I love being a woman and having a small foot.
OOOHHH and I also met Byron London! Thing I expected anyway. Like, I was sure I would find him there, and so did I :) he's been so cute and told me I was sweet. (duh, I was like "I love you, I love your pictures, everything!") damn he's fierce

3rd august


H&M top bought at Westfield while I had the worst stomachache ever, Topshop leggings, Accessorize headband.
I loved this look when I wore it, I was so happy to hang around London dressed up like this. It was probably one of the worst nights I've ever spent 'cause it was about 10 pm and we were starving, and english restaurants were full or about to close. I am italian, damn it, I can't eat at 5 pm and then carry on till night! But God has invented Mc Donald's for a reason, right? So at 11 pm we've crossed the whole City with the subway to find one, and ate there. I remember when I saw it I started screaming and running like a soccer player who's just scored a goal!
This outfit is so kitsch and cool at the same time, innit? The 90's inspired sweater which makes you look like one of the Robinsons, the 20's headband and, well, the leopard leggings which are just timeless, but I think leopard is the number one elegant/kitsch pattern, don't you think? It can be extremely chic, as Domenico and Stefano always teach us, and also a leopard accessory can spiece up a boring outfit, but you gotta be careful with it!

London possesses you

I'm getting too much nostalgic, but I can't help it. Today at school I was about to cry, thinking of all the crazy things I've seen, bought and done in London... I have like, 2000 pictures token there, among BlackBerry and camera. I'd love to show you everything that amazed me in this beautiful city, but it would take like 500 posts. Maybe sometimes, when I'll feel blue and I'll be missing London again, I'll post something else, just for you too see what it is from the eyes of a teenage daydreamer.

my first Topshop bags :')
my God, that shop. And TOPMAN, also. They're like heaven, I swear. I would live in there. The Oxford Circus one is the best. It also has a hairdresser downstairs and a vintage shop or something, where I found old customized Levi's shorts with studs and various ripped and tortured clothes. Heaven, I'm telling you. Innit?

Ladurée macarons from Covent Garden, destroyed and crumbled in my backpack. But they were still amazingly delicious.

Topshop aztech print top. Cool, innit?

my belly from above in Camden Town, with my new clock.
Oh, Camden Town, you must go there also. It's like a huge, beautiful, amazing and pervert labyrinth and there's almost anything you want. Anything, except for one good Sex Pistols t-shirt (which was basically the reason why I wanted to visit Camden's market) -.- 

Camden silk shirt bought in an adorable and preppy little shop

Anne Boleyn necklace (like Ugly Betty's), Tudors ring (hahaha), the clock and my Tiffany bracelet on my blanket

my first Starbucks Frappuccino, after the first time at Harrods, with the orange nail polish my friend bought to me when I was ill ♥

Topshop friendship bracelets, adorable :)

the picture speaks by itselfs and exhales so much dopeness

useless water tattoos from Madame Tusseaud's

ah, that awesome H&M sweater! So 90's!

under the rain, near to St Paul's Cathedral, running like crazy (headed to Topshop, of course)

HEINZ! Heinz ketchup, Heinz beans, Heinz mayo... They've always been a legend to me!


the National Portrait Gallery is full of brilliant stuff

innit?

nnnnice.

this is quite nice too


the last night in London, with the Sid Vicious quote t-shirt and some new necklaces

last day, radiant and blinding sun :)

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in



engines stop running, the weat is growing thin.
A nuclear error, but I have no fear
'cause London is calling and I live by the river.





(isn't it the best pair of shorts you've ever seen before?!)










Crunchies ♥

Topshop necklace and shorts, my friend's random top bought in Windsor, Ray-ban wayfarer and Converse Chuck Taylor made me the happiest girl in London on August 3rd. It was my best outfit ever.
...not to mention, I also had the Chanel Particulière and my favourite ring on.

british kisses,
