The best velvet looks for FW '16/'17

She wore Blue Velvet
Bluer than velvet was the night
Softer than satin was the light
From the stars

She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet were her eyes
Warmer than May her tender sighs
Love was ours

- Bobby Vinton-

Shades of autumn

“Sweater weather,” you said.
And I am swept like a crisp oak leaf
into a duvet and down dream,
where the pillows do not speak
of the warm, the moments large and small
when I nestle near you,
demanding that arms dress me
to close kept comfort.

WHEN IN MILAN

Oh Milan.. city of sophistication, the place where style is born, men in suits ride Vespas and woman look effortlessly chic. It's also the city that beautiful monuments, secret green gardens and L'Ultima Cena (The last supper) by Leonardo Da Vinci call home.
It's the city that is even more beautiful during the Salone del Mobile, the biggest and most leading interior exhibition in the world. The big labels show their latest collection, and the rest of Milan is filled with an amazing atmosphere and new, creative and innovative designs. Enjoy!

Oh Milan.. stad van elegantie, de plek waar stijl geboren wordt, mannen in pak op hun Vespas rijden en de vrouwen moeiteloos chic zijn. Het is ook de stad van prachtige monumenten, geheime groene tuinen en het Laatste Avondmaal van Leonardo Da Vinci. Het is de stad die tijdens de Salone del Mobile, de grootste en meest toonaangevende interieurbeurs ter wereld, nóg mooier wordt. Grote labels showen hun nieuwste collectie en in de rest van de stad heerst een geweldige atmosfeer en nieuwe, creatieve, en innovatieve ontwerpen. Enjoy!
