VINTAGE VENETIAN GETS FIERCE

Soft time worn walls and shutters in Venice create an inspiring palette...

To be translated into something way more fierce! The pops of color (brought in by the flowers in the first photo and accessories and makeup in the second) are essential to keeping the combination of antique green and terra cotta peach feeling updated and fresh.

    Ok... Let me tell you the reality... The truth is, Rihanna is a strong young woman, I really like her voice and so many thing about her. But I really can see her to be stylish. Actually, I think that most of her choices are disastrous when it comes to fashion. Maybe it's good for the "media" factor in her life and to be"seen", but I would NEVER wear many things that she does. Maybe I would borrow the shoes, tough. ;-)

    Have a great week!
