  5. Ciao Marinella, Il tuo blog e’ simpaticissimo e molto originale. E poi vedo che anche tu fai l’architetto e disegnatrice d’interni! Fantastica! Complimenti ancora e un grande in bocca al lupo! Bacioni! xx

    • Ei, che crepi il lupo!!! Eh sì vorrei provare ad essere differente, ma è forse la cosa più difficile visto che le idee di tutti circolano così velocemente e pubblicamente! tentar non nuoce, è poco + di un mese che sono qui!!! grazie mille dell’incoraggiamento e allora ci sentiamo prossimamente su questi schermi :-P !!!

  22. 50% architect 50% interior designer…interesting concept..truth is that by checking out yo blog you seem like any other hip fashion designer. Y U NO check out the Giraffe for some TRU architecture news.
    ps u kinda hot. how tall are you?

    Reply ↓

    • Hey stylezz, 50%-50% is what concerns my everyday life together with dancing! The blog is about my passions: fashion is one of that!!! I unfortunately still don’t work as a fashion designer :-) …I hope one day! architecture is sometimes so boring, especially in Italy!!! Is this your website http://www.giraffearchitecture.co.uk/? tell me more!!!
      ps. are you starring me for something :-) ??? ❤

      Reply ↓

    • siii :-) i! Io avevo letto che eri architetta e forse dal titolo dovevo immaginare che eri anche ballerina, che danza fai?
      Credo in comune abbiamo altre due cose: la pazzia (per aver intrapreso due strade così difficili) e il sogno (di fare qualcosa di bello che ci appassioni e dia spazio alla nostra creatività)…non è forse questa una delle ragioni per le quali scriviamo qui??? baciiii xxx

      • principalmente classico. direi che hai pienamente ragione! tu professionalmente come sei messa? io non benissimo, periodo nero per gli architetti! baci

      • io classico e adesso hip hop contaminato da contemporaneo (paroloni). Professionalmente?!?!mmm, cerco la mia strada hahah. Negli ultimi mesi ho lavorato per negozi di lusso tipi Roberto Cavalli in uno studio di interni. Nel luxury retails c’è lavoro, ma sei trattato da schifo e sinceramente aver studiato per essere maltrattata un pò mi rode. Voglio provare a fare qualche lavoro anche promozionale con un paio di miei amici chiedendo a “chiunque”. E poi ho il dottorato, altro canale morto e stressante :( . Tu invece? ho letto che hai un lavoro o sbaglio?

      • sì lavoro da un architetto ma pagata molto poco e il lavoro non è un gran che (più che altro perizie per il tribunale). vorrei cambiare ma in giro non trovo niente, almeno nella mia città. dovrei almeno spostarmi a milano.

      • nooo perizie per il tribunale nooo! a milano nel luxury retails c’è molto, io penso di trasferirmi lì prima o poi. cmq per noi architetti l’unica strada è la libera professione, se solo trovassimo dei clienti :-)

  28. Ehi! Intanto grazie per essere passata a dare un’occhiata da PDF34!
    …eppoi ho scoperto che c’è qualcun’ altro la fuori che ha dei tratti somatici simili ai miei…possibile?
    Anch’io interior designer per il luxury retail (ma non sono architetto)… tifoso del Giappone…ho 4 pezzi di mah-jong in una piccola casa…mi piace la moda ma solo come desiderio di fare qualche servizio fotografico…
    Complimenti per il sito… i post sul design mi piacciono molto!

    Reply ↓

    • Ei grazie mille per essere passato! eh si, alla fine cercando bene si può anche incontrare gente che ci assomiglia qui :-) …ce n’è talmente tanta!!! tu dove lavori? io nel luxury retail ci sono da un annetto, non è male, anche se la creatività è abbastanza annientata a favore delle politiche dei brand. mah-jong mon amour, sono enormi cmq, ma bellissimi, li metterei ovunque!!!Grazie per il complimento ho iniziato da un paio di mesi e gli incoraggiamenti mi servono notti!!! xxx

      • Un po di tempo fa sono finito per puro caso nello studio tecnico interno della Roberto Cavalli. Poi mi sono stancato e mi sono messo in proprio avendo loro come cliente principale…sto per aprire un piccolo studio a Milano (dove vivo) ma non ne sono sicuro…ho già tutto: location con progetto, assistente, pc ecc… ma ho anche una gran voglia di Tokyo!

      • no aspetta….non ci credo?!?!? quindi c’è molto più che ci accomuna. Io per lo studio dove ho lavorato (fino a un mese fa) anche io adesso sto provando a mettermi in proprio e anche magari a trasferirmi a milano dove sono nata, e dove ho casa e voglio assolutamente tornare ho lavorato per Roberto Cavalli….siamo l’unico studio romano che da un annetto ha fatto qualche negozio per loro…questo è incredibile! beh se ti serve una mano per il piccolo studio, magari quando vai a tokyo scrivimi. INCREDIBILE CMQ

      • Ho sentito parlare di voi in Cavalli (quando avete iniziato la collaborazione io ero già fuori…) ma non mi ricordo il nome…Se vieni su a Milano e io non sono ancora partito( mi sono ripromesso di studiare un pò di Jap prima…) fammi sapere…non è detto che si possano unire le forze…

      • hahahah immagino cosa avrai sentito…ci sono stati molti alti e bassi…magari ne parliamo in separata sede:-). se vuoi aggiungimi su facebook (marinella rauso) o dammi un tuo riferimento. io a milano dove ho appena finito di ristrutturare casa ci salgo spesso, magari se non sei in giappone (ma te lo auguro) ci vediamo.

  42. Read a lot about Italy in my European History studies and have a passion to know more about Rome and Milan in particular. Love your blog specially because of the way you capture memories in the form of pictures and words. All your posts are simply amazing! Keep it up!
    PS: You’re kinda cute ;)

  46. I assume you found my blog today because of the “fashion” tag. I appreciate you liking the post! You are quite fashionable and I will definitely be following you to keep this city girl turned country up-to-date on the trends!

  51. Hey Marinella :)
    Since you liked the ‘get styled by Masquerade21′ post I wondered if you would like me to style an outfit for you? This is 100% free and what I would do is put together a style collage of items from the internet that match your budget. If you would like me to do one for you then please tell me what kind of outfit you would like (e.g outfit for a date, wedding, interview, everyday) and what your budget is, it can be as low or high as you like although obviously I can’t put together a £1 outfit:)

  58. Hey Italy, Spain here!! ;-)
    Thanks for stopping by and liking my post! Just started blogging and it is a real pleasure to receive your like….I love your blog and I have added it to my blogroll to keep an eye on it…. keep the good work!

  68. Hi, I’d love to promote your site on my sites and if you’d like to guest post, would love to promote your blog. fashion-blog.net and urban-fashion.org … let me know if you’re interested or if it would be okay for me to promote your blog on my sites.

    Thank you and (thank you for your like and visiting my page!)

      • Hi!

        I’m still new with this “marketing” thing, so I was nervous, super stoked your ok with it.

        The sites are urban-fashion.org and fashion-blogs.net – For both sites I have a social networking program installed that allows users to bookmark, add articles and backlink to their own blogs/articles.

        For urban-fashion I’d like to pick an article and give you a backlink to that particular article. For the fashion-blogs, I’ll add your blog to the fashion blogs sections. Both sites are still fairly new and I’m still working on building my Internet presense, but the idea behind both is to allow users to vote on their favorite blogs/articles/social bookmarks (kinda like digg).

        Additionally, if you have an article you’d like to contribute, I can either create a page just for your article (on urban-fashion) with a backlink to your site and your name (to give it a personal touch) or if you’d like, you can go to the site and add your own article… urban-fashion has two sections, the main site and then the articles/bookmarking segment. the main section is more personal and the content gets it’s own page, whereas the article/bookmarking segment is a conglomeration of many links and articles (kind of clustered)…

        Let me know what you’d like and my apologies for the short novel!

      • Hi, I really, really like your blog! I’m developing a site fashion-blogs.net and I would like to add your site as a “featured blog.”

        Let me know if you are interested and I’ll get to work.

        Thanks,

        Jarrod

      • I’m really excited!! Okay, You don’t have to do anything, I will get to work on it tonight and I will send you the links. Then, let me know if you want me to make any changes.

        Thank you!!

      • Okay,

        Your site is “Blog of the Month” at top right of the page at: http://www.fashion-blogs.net

        click the image (or go to : http://www.fashion-blogs.net/green-inspiration.php ) to view your page (with backlinks to your site, and they are “dofollow”).

        I’d really like to use the picture of you (I think it’s you) that just shows your eyes with the sun glasses for the image on the front page and for your blog “review”… but I didn’t know how you would feel with a picture of you (if it is you… haha) on another site.

        Let me know if you want me to change anything!

      • WOWOOWOWOW…this is incredible I’m so happy about that! sure YOU CAN USE MY PIC! It’s perfect, I’m so happy and the description is written form me…I mean everythink is so cute! Tell me when you change the pic that I want to make a post writing about this and your blog! Today starts in a great way! baci

      • HUGE :) !!! I am sooo happy that you like it! I will get to work on it today and I will let you know when I add your pic, I think it will make it more personal to you and your blog style. And thank you so much for the FB like!! The site is still new and, well, thank you!

  90. Please let me know if you’re looking for a article author for your site. You have some really good posts and I believe I would be a good asset. If you ever want to take some of the load off, I’d absolutely love to write some articles for your blog in exchange for a link back to mine. Please shoot me an email if interested. Kudos!

  109. Thank you for your ‘like.’ I worked in Treviso in another life. I miss Italy dearly, as well as my friends there. Very different than Hollywood. So much art and so much design, what a wonderful place you live in. Never take it for granted. :)

    • You are right sometimes I forget that it is not so obvious all the history and beauty we have all around. Often I think I’d like to move to NYC because of its creativity and I wish I could visit California because it is a sort of American dream for us. If you live close to Hollywood I think you are very lucky too:-P

  174. Dude. I dig your mix of fashion, buildings and conscientiousness. I’m the child of an architect and former fashion-college instructor; your blog is like the way-more-glamorous version of my childhood, hehe. Thanks for visiting purelysubjective, too; so glad you found something you like! Cheers my dear. :)

    Reply ↓

    • Hi Jourdie. Your comment is amazing and your childhood too. I’d like t know more about that :) .
      I think that architecture, design and fashion are linked together more than we can imagine. happy saturday! xxx

      • Well, my dad’s the architect and my mom used to teach at the Fashion Institute in Los Angeles. Whenever we travelled, we would visit buildings, which I initially thought was kind of boring, but I learned to appreciate it over the years. I also spent a lot of my childhood in downtown LA surrounded by fabric and angsty design students. The best part was that there was a fashion show of graduate work every year. Now that I think about it, I was pretty lucky. Except everyone always said not to do something creative as an adult because you wind up broke. True, but it seems a little unrealistic raise a kid surrounded by art and hope they’ll wind up a doctor or lawyer, right? I’m a broke creative just like the people I knew and loved growing up, hehe. How’d you get into all this good stuff?

  196. Thanks for liking on my blog ,, i really get inspired by your blog, and my mom also an architect :) ,, im looking for some info related to fashion show outside indonesia, if you have one, kindly buzz me ok :) :):):):)… keep up to posting.. I LOVE IT!
