Rag & Bone

Wearability





= What NYU will look like this fall.
Also, the last resembles what I'm in the mood for. Looser, draped coats/capes/ponchos? The only thing being that I HATE ponchos, I swore them off three or four years ago when they were a trend. This is different though? Eh

If I had known you were coming, I would have baked you a cake.

Se io avessi saputo che venivi, avrei cucinato una torta.


MOST DIFFICULT SENTANCE YET


St. Francis of Assisi, with purple hair.

Scarpe

I want a cape.
The asian tourists are so well dressed in Florence, it boggles my mind. The Americans aren't. Trying to begin searching for good Japanese street style blogs, recommendations? Anyone, anyone, Bueller?
C'è sartoria, la voglio.

Rarr Nancy

I'm obviously never here.

Back

I finally have internet where I'm living.
I'll pretend I'm really cool and have readers/followers...
Obviously my lack of internet has kept me away from the blogosphere during the most important time of the year. Thankfully, Paris fashion week still awaits. For now, I'll condense my thoughts and direct them towards one designer for this post. If I feel like it, I will come back and expand, perhaps move on to a favorite from another city.
Fittingly, my favorite, so far, has been MARNI. (Hence, Milan.) Prada was obviously brilliant... Tavi (http://tavi-thenewgirlintown.blogspot.com/) does a great review, I essentially agree with her ugly->sexy discourse. I would also like to add that the knit tights potently reminded me of, who else, but my Italian/American Italian professor from last semester. She wore these thick knit tights in terrible browns and dark oranges almost EVERY day, and while everyone else in class was constantly whispering about how horrible her ensembles were, I found them interesting.
Back to Marni.
First, there are the gloves. The accessories seem rather inflated, as if to ironize them. The last post, yes, the repeated Morocco pictures, Hanna, did the same with the headdresses, I think.
I would seriously WEAR these gloves at all times, though, unlike a turban.

Hanna... Reusch much? Amazing!






Shoes, next. I have to do some homework. Maybe later? Pace yourself. I missed too much.
Not to mention I also missed the ENTIRETY of the Olympics, and the best Olympics for the US yet, too. Gah. askdfjlskdfjsdfsd. My Dad is now calling Bode: "Buddha".

MOROCCO

I am dead-set on going to Morocco. I have found friends to go with, we have planned.
My father, on the other hand, does not want me to go. Allora http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis/cis_975.html


So what?
The Paris Vogue shoot that inspired me. HEADRESSES!

TRES CHIC

Oui, ze music that one of my flat-mates played put me in a very Parisian mood. A la Brigitte Bardot.


This, but of COURSE, led me to scouring ze internet pour les mode.
... not that I know any french.
I will soon go to Milano and endeavor to be inspired by the home of Miuccia herself...


From the Prada S/S 10 lookbook:




And I stumbled upon this image of Alexa Chung coming out of a pizza place back in nolita that I'm in loveeee with and it made me hungry/homesick for New York pizza.

In Firenze, classes start tomorrow.
Here are some favorites from the past few days of being an annoying American tourist.


I LOVE random coral buildings
