In a Penguinland






An outfit shot the other day when here in Zagreb was -10 C! Felt like a penguin, so I decided to go with it. Put on my super cool hat, and together with these red leather gloves and bottle-green sunnies - I already felt much more myself! When the weather's not fun enough, you need to find a way to entertain yourself!

Un outfit dell'altro giorno qui in Zagabria quando faceva -10 gradi! Mi sentivo come un pinguino, quindi ho deciso di mettermi in gioco. Ho messo il mio cappello super cool, che insieme ai guanti di pelle rossa e gli occhiali verde-bottiglia mi hanno fatto sentirmi che ero io! Quando il tempo non e' divertente, bisogna trovare il modo di divertirvi da soli!

The Third Summer of Love


ph Corinne Day for The Face, 1990


The summers of 1988 and 1989 are generally referred to as the “Second Summer of Love”, as the drug ecstasy fuelled dance floors and raves across the British Isles and Ibiza.
But for The Face, 1990 was when the scene started moving from the underground to the charts, via the terraces, with young “football thugs with flowers” making a new brand of funky, psychedelic rock you could dance to.
And with what started as a playful shooting between three friends, ended with launching extraordinary carees of all the present protagonists : Kate Moss, Corinne Day and Melanie Ward.

fairy tale Zurich



 





Just a few hours away from Milan, exiting the train station in Zurich you see post that says 'Gluhwein', that is hot wine stand, as a part of a Christmas market. So obviously you make your first stop there!
The city itself is pretty nice, and covered in snow was much prettier. Made me want white Chritmas this year even more that usual.

Solo poche ore da Milano, uscendo dalla stazione centrale in Zurigo vedrete la scritta 'Gluhwein', che e' il vino caldo, uno dei venditori, che fa parte del mercatino del Natale. Allora, certo che fate il vostro primo 'check' proprio li!
La citta in se' e' carina, coperta in neve ancora piu' bella dal solito. Mi ha fatto volere il Natale bianco quest'anno ancora di piu'.

a trip to Chocolate-land

It would seem that every country we visit claims to be the home of chocolate, with beautifully decorated chocolate shops popping at every corner and luring you to at least enter and look around ( then when you do, immagine what happens. Has anyone ever exited a chocolate shop empty-handed? )
If you google 'countries that make the best chocolate' you'll read...Italy-agreed, Belgium-agreed, and Switzerland was the one missing...

I shall say no more, cause a photo is worth a thousand words ;)


Sembrerebbe che ogni paese che visitiamo sostiene di essere la patria del cioccolato, con negozi di cioccolato bellissimi e deliziosi spuntando da ogni angolo e attirandoci ad almeno entrare e guardarsi intorno (poi quando lo facciamo, immaginate ciò che accade. Qualcuno e' mai uscito da un negozio di cioccolatti con le mani vuote?)
Se metti in Google 'countries that make the best chocolate' potrai leggere ... Italia-d'accordo, Belgio-d'accordo, e la Svizzera è stato il paese che mancava ...

Non diro altro, perché una foto vale più di mille parole;)






soon more photos from the trip! stay tuned
