Get the look: The Carrie diaries

Hello everyone! As many of you might already know, few weeks ago it was launched "The Carrie Diaries" the prequel of the very famous Sex and The City. I could not resist the temptation to create some inspired outfits. The show takes place in the 80's, so the key world is color blocking!
Some of the outfits might look kind of unusual to you guys but that's because i tried to stay as close as possible to the 80's style that is very fancy and extravagant.
In the young Carrie's style we can find something in common with her grown up version: they both share the love for tulle, sequins and puffy dresses.

If you want to look like teenage Carries living in the 80's, all you need is:

- Point flats and heels ( a must have in the 80's)

-Colorful skirts, shirts and tights

-Colorful blazer, possibly with shoulder pads

-The iconic black bag with nail polish splatters

-Skater skirts with a polka dots pattern

-Black round sunglasses 

This first look is all based on color blocking, as the main trend in the 80's, almost everyone was wearing bright colors mixed together. If you want to recreate this look don't forget to wear tights, it was very inappropriate to go out with bare legs. The dresses were mostly to the knees and they were all  cinched at the waist and loose on the bottom. 

This second look was inspired by the outfits she wears when she's not in NYC but in her town. She pares skater skirts with colorful tops and shirts and then she adds on top a cardigan or a hoodie. Again, don't forget to wear tights and to rock the black sunglasses. 

Last but not least, her NYC party outfits. These are the most funky and sparkly ones. She loves wearing puffy tulle dresses, possibly with some sequins on it and she pares them with animal print cardigans or colorful jackets. At this point, she doesn't wear tights anymore because it wasn't fashionable in NYC. Her shoes have always a little bit of heel and of course, they are pointy. 

I hope these outfits got you in the 80's mood, if you have any requests for my "Get the look" posts let me know! Have a great day, i'll see you next time.
Bye Bye! 

Get the look: Nina Dobrev

Hello Hello everyone! I'm back in my flat in Milano and i have a management exam in two days so i'm kind of freaking out but this won't stop me from updating the blog :) Today's post is dedicated to a person that i really admire, she's a great actress, she's from Toronto and she's currently a vampire...i'm talking about Nina Dobrev! (her name was in the title, it's wasn't really hard to guess :P)
A lot of people love her casual-chic style, when she's off set she's never too dressed up and i rarely see her wearing heels. If you like her outfit and you want to look like her, here's what you need to have:

• black blazers and skinny jeans
• a big shopping bag and  magazines or a phone in your hand
•  lot of mixed bracelets 
• dark denim shorts
• flats or boots with a little chunky heel
• a bandage dress to use alone for a night time outfit or pared with a blazer and flats during the day
• a pair of dark Ray ban wayfarer

Nina loves wearing dark or neutral tones even if she always trows in a pop of color, like a scarf, a necklace or a t-shirt. Her hair look very natural and beautiful all the time, usually they are not perfectly straight and they have quite a bit of volume. Her makeup is simple as well, she always goes for a brown smoky eye pared with a neutral pink lipstick or gloss, her blush is a deep plum color or a earth tone one and her brows are always dark and thick.

When she's walks on a red carpet we often see her wearing a short strapless bandage dress and she usually curls her hair or has a pretty up do, usually is a messy low bun.  One thing i noticed is the she prefers studs earrings, she wears them all the time. She doesn't accessorize much, just a small dainty ring or bracelet and i rarely see her carrying a clutch. 

I hope this post was useful don't be afraid to ask if you have any question i'll see you soon! Bye bye!
