Ridin' Solo!

I'm back! Again! Sorry but I just graduated in a master and things were so chaotic!! I had to finish my thesis and had to deal with my careless professor supervisor.
BTW, recently I was thinking that in the past 2 years I was still listening to the same set of songs, with some temporary obsession for some catchy songs which passed after a couple of weeks.
I felt like lately music was always the same, nothing new, same patterns, same bases... in other words, boring!!
However, in the last couple of weeks, I've rediscovered some artists that I forgot about and also discovered some nice new songs from fresh singers, which is nice! It's always nice explore different music! It's refreshing! Sometimes we're stucked with some songs that just remind us sad or bad things and automatically we feel that way. But sometimes, new music can bring that new energy and can affect our mood in a good or bad way, it depends.



Thanks to a playlist that I heard on BBC Radio 1 I've discovered some new songs that right now are stucked in my head!
The first is the debut single of Harry Styles and the other one is the new song by John Mayer, "Still feel like your man".



Talking about Harry Styles, who came right from a band and now he's working as a solo artist, I was thinking about all those singers that reached fame through a band or group and then start a solo career, leaving behind their band mates and becoming a super star.

From BAFTAs to Grammys

Last night was full of events: the Grammys at Los Angeles and the Baftas in London.
The Oscars of the music and the British Oscars all in one night but on the opposite side of the world!
From Royal Hall in London to Staples Center in Los Angeles, the celebrities were a lot with a lot of looks, but unfortunately I have to admit that last night was a bit undertone. There weren't outstanding outfits or looks, nothing breath-taking. Maybe because they're holding back for the upcoming Oscars? I really hope so! Because I need to be surprised!!



Let's see the outfits of Baftas!

Happy Creepy Halloween!

Halloween! For a lot of people it's the most exciting holiday because we can dress up as we want, expressing ourself with the most sexy and creepy costumes.
In my country, Halloween was never a big party, when I was little we didn't even know what Halloween was! Till my English teacher explained the event at school and one of my friends organized a little pijama party for Halloween. I still remember the little witch hat, dark nail polish and lipstick that my mom bought for me! Ah I loved it!
Now, Halloween is kinda a big thing also here in Italy! Lots of parties and lots of costumes, but we will never be at the same Halloween-level of UK or USA!



Let's see what celebrities chose to wear for this fun and creepy night!

On the steps of the MET

Yes! Here it is!
Finally the MET Gala arrived! My favourite event! It's ages I keep admiring this event and its gorgeous dresses!
This year the Costume Institue Exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York is dedicated to Chinese fashion! The exhibit is called "China: through the looking glass", and it's theme of this year's gala. the inspirations should be the chinese art and artifacts and the dresses should interpreting chinese culture from the western point of view. I was so curious about this theme, because it's not so simple being original but not boring and banal. I have to admit that I expected a little more of Chinese culture.
There were such good outfits that I really don't know where to start!

Sarah Jessica Parker bet on a simple H&M dress and an amazing and flashy hat by Philip Tracey, very "oriental"!

Ivanka Trump, the business woman par excellence, wore this gorgeous blue and white gown by Prabal Gurung. So elegant!


 
Emily Ratajkowski aka EmRata was so chic with her custom Topshop white dress. I really appreciated her look, she looked so classy.



Kerry Washington wore a fairy tale pink Prada gown, she seemed a modern Cinderella!
 




Dianna Agron wore a delicate white gown by Tory Burch with some embroidered  little red herons. Dianna chose a Tory Burch gown, bag and shoes with Fred Leighton jewelry.



 Hailee Steinfeld chose a simple but beautiful red Michael Kors dress, Beladora Jewels and she carried an Edie Parker clutch for the gala. Simple but nice.



Elizabeth banks decided to bet on a light blue Michael Korse cut out dress with a Lee Savage clutch, a Kara Ross and Melissa Kaye Jewelry rings and Jennifer Fisher Jewelry earrings.



Diane Kruger wore a Chanel Haute Couture see through trousers. I really liked this look because it's unconventional, modern and classic at the same time.



Emma Roberts wore a Ralph Lauren Collection custom emerald silk charmeuse one-shoulder evening dress with a Art Deco belt, Monique Péan earrings, Edie Parker clutch, Ralph Lauren Collection shoes and bracelet. Simply gorgeous!

 




The Fifty Shades of Grey's Anastasia aka Dakota Johnson chose a mini sparkly black and silver dress from Chanel with Bally heels. Look at ther bag: it's a a small purse in the shape of a Harajuku girl, so cute!



Uma Turman opted for a white long gown by Atelier Versace with Alexandre Birman shoes and Anna Hu earrings. A goddess!





Sienna Miller chose something unusual but elegant. Sienna wore a sparkly dark red trouser suit with black details by Thakoon with custom Jacob & Co earrings and carrying a Rauwolf clutch.





Rita Ora chose a Tom Ford red silk dress. The high neck with elegant neck tie, the form fitting scarlet silk and sweet ruffled shoulders is really beautiful.



Adriana Lima wore a burgundy Marc Jacobs dress with some rhinestone on the front with Chopard jewelry and a Judith Leiber clutch. The contrast between the colour of her dress, the makeup and her eyes is amazing!




Chrissy Teigen beautiful as always chose a St. John gown, Fred Leighton jewelry,with a Judith Leiber Couture clutch. I love the dark orchids pinned in her hair!
Let's pass to my favourite ones:

Rosie Huntington-Whitley is always on point. Last night she wore a cut out and shaped Atelier Versace dress. She was incredible.


Other british girls who wore beautiful dresses were the supermodels Jourdan Dunn, Cara Delevingne and her sister Poppy.
Jourdan opted for a special burgundy custom Burberry dress with Christina Louboutin shoes.
She was representing Burberry accompanied by Games of Thrones' Sophie Turner and Hold Back the River's singer James Bay.





Cara Delevingne wore an amazing black Stella McCartney outfit, sandals, and clutch. She was covered of cherry blossom tattoos all over her arms and chest. I loved it!

 

Her sister Poppy, instead wore a red Marchesa dress covered with flowers on the upper part and an Edie Parker clutch.



Let's pass to Selena! Selena Gomez was stunning in her Vera Wang white dress.  Once again I loved the white orchids in her hair!

 





Vanessa Hudgens chose perfectly her H&M red and black dress! Beautiful!


 

 Anna Wintour's daughter Bee Shaffer opted for a gorgeous burgundy Alexander McQueen gown. The details of the flowers all over the dress are really nice. So chic!



 I would never thought I could say that Kim Kardashian would have been one of my favourite outfit from the MET Gala! Never! However, she surprised me!
I literally loved her dress! Kim wore a Peter Dundas for Roberto Cavalli dress. Just WOW!

 

 And here she came! The Queen.. Beyonce!
She rocked her Givenchy dress like nobody else! STUNNING!



 

 Let's take a second just to admire how handsome was my beloved Colin Firth in his Tom Ford tuxedo.




 And here we are... the big NO NO of the night: Anne Hathaway. She wore this hoodie golden dress by Ralph Lauren with Benedetta Bruzziches clutch, and Repossi jewels. I'm sorry Anne, but NO!



 Even if the main host Anna Wintour prohibited all the social media use, some of the guests broke the rules and post some "simple photos with friends" on Instagram.
