    Feeling like a piece of art

    Updated: Oct 8, 2019

    When they say to "blend into your surroundings", you dress accordingly. when I found this dress in a little store on a side street in Castellammare, I knew exactly when I was going to wear it. The "hand painted" look was so apropos for Caltagirone where they are known for their hand painted ceramics! There is a lot of hand painted pottery in Sicily but the majority comes out of Caltagirone (to learn more about the history click here).

    Pretty in Polka Dots

    Updated: Oct 7, 2019

    Black and white polka dots ruled the Spring 2018 runways—from the oversized, '80s-inspired iterations at Carolina Herrera to glamorous swim looks at Jacquemus and smaller spots on romantic dresses at Jason Wu. I love the flare at the bottom and the bow tie strap add a super feminine flare which reminds me of dolce & Gabbana.  Here's a quick inexpensive way to incorporate this look into your wardrobe!

    Dress: Shein.com$13

    Bag: Purchased in Italy

    No grey areas, just black and white ⚪️⚫️

    Updated: Oct 7, 2019

    Some basic outfits don't have to be "basic", like this basic white pants and black top outfit. The key is to accessorize properly. I love a wide leg pant since I have wide hips it actually makes them appear smaller and they balance out my broad shoulders. Plus these are high waisted which I love and perfect to pair with a crop top. I don't usually like a crop top to go out because I don't like to expose too much skin but these high waisted pants came up just high enough to show a little skin but too much where Nonna would panic lol. I wore these fun white tassel earrings to brighten up around my face and of course had to stay in theme with the lemon bag and lemon armcandy! A very simple but classic "Sicilian" / Dolce Gabbana look ;)

    Outfit Details:

    Top: For L'dor Red Bank $10.99

    Wide Leg Linen Pants: Zara - on sale $19.99

    Heels: Chinese Laundry - Joy Ride$ 60

    Citrus Armparty: orianalamarca.com$176
