Finally the GIG Spotlight #2 Fashion Tag is online www.girlsinspiredgroup.com
Someone said that “only style remains, because fashion fades” (coco chanel). Someone else – more recently – says that “style is the way to say who you are without having to speak” (rachel zoo).
❣❣❣
Qualcuno ha detto che “solo lo stile resta, mentre la moda svanisce” (coco chanel). Qualcun’altro – più recentemente – dice che “lo stile è il modo per dire chi sei senza dover parlare” (rachel zoe).
What I think is that each of us has a unique style.
What is all about?!? It depends on you and on your mood. It could be all a matter of details. A large brooch with a “lanvin” flower on a simple black blazer. A jewel necklace on a gray sweatshirt. An original and creative clutch (Alexander McQueen versus Bottega Veneta). Sometimes it’s a matter of fabrics. Sophisticated and chic silk. Embroidered and rich brocade. Fresh and comfy cotton. Warm and enveloping knitted wool. Or simply a question of colors. The color you feel good when you were it. It’s your own color. The one that makes you feel sexy, comfy and “deeply” you.
So, it doesn’t matter neither you are a sort of “good girl“: bon-ton – with Peter collars and pleated skirt- or romantic – all tulle, lace and faux feathers – nor a sort of “bad girl“: a little bit cat woman – if leather is your passion – or street style inspired – when you take what you want from the run-a-way reinterpreting. Denim on denim, layering…or a mix of everything…we don’t mind who you are…we just want to know more about it!!!
These are my 9 winter garments I can’t do without. If I put all of them in my suitcase. I can be fashion and stylish from day to night almost everywhere. If I mix and match I can have several combinations. Is it easy, no???!!! Unlucky my luggage is always heavier than the sum of these. Good luck for your entry! mari ❤❤❤

“style is the way to say who you are without having to speak” (rachel zoo) -> I LOVE IT!
I’m not sure there is an occasion I wouldn’t want to carry a Chanel bag!
Well I agree with you bellezza. Do you have others “can’t without”???
Great pieces! I’m definitely inspired. 🙂
Ei bellezza! Love your style, so your comment worths a lot. Are you showing us yours? I think we have a lot to learn…xxx
I actually had a question about that – Do I need to create a new post on the topic or just share a post I’ve already written that features my style?
Yes, you should create a new one. It can be an outfit, a collage of photos or whatever…something like…If I’m going to leave what it’s absolutely necessary in my suitcase?
It’s a sort of short competition…the winner is going to be featured on GIG page, group, twitter and blog for one week! 😀
Great! Hopefully I’ll have time to write/post/submit this week! 🙂
I hope so 😛
Love the emphasis on style over fashion (disposable)
even if Someone before me thought it 🙂 i guess it’s so true. If you are not abile to create and show your style you are forced to Change everything countinously. Xxx
Post affascinante e intelligente, Mari!!!! Credo che ci sia spazio per embrambe le cosa. La moda ti permette di cambiare la versione esteriore del nostro stile interiore….. Non so se ha senso… Qui e’ presto e ho dormito poco!
Nice style! 🙂 http://akirahbabe.wordpress.com/2013/01/24/whats-your-fashion-statement-gigspotlight2/
Love your style hun
omg, not only am I loving your sense of style and your general fashion sense, I am also loving the way you are conveying your thoughts. You are an amazing writer!
oh, and, LOVING your blog!
I’m pretty sure you made a small typo after the style quote, you wrote “zoo” instead or “zoe”. No biggie just though I should let you know 🙂
thanks a lot. Yes it was an error! 😀
No problem! 🙂
carinissima la tua idea di mixare cosi i tuoi capi preferiti!
comunque io tra le due affermazioni mi riconosco molto di più nella prima 🙂
bacibaci
Beh io anche sinceramente, però sono tutte e due significative. Ma voi avete facebook? perché non vi iscrivete al gruppo così potete promuovere il vostro blog che è molto carino e conoscere altre bloggers 😛
