Another one for the category fashion meets art meets curiousity. This is a project realized for Splash Calendar for 2015, an attempt to express the main characteristics of each zodiac sign with an outfit, with a particular look.
Me, I am an Aquarius with Gemini Rising. I can get behind the Aquarius outfit, I like the colors, the dress is overall aestetically pleasing for me and I love its high neckline. Not sure I would wear it, however. I kinda dislike the pink swan. As for Gemini, shiny is good, but for me the outfit is not trickster, not mercurial enough, it is too regal, in my opinion, even with the quirky colored stones and patterns. I like that they used two different models. And I absolutely love the Virgo one.

What about you? Can you see yourself and your style in the look for your star sign? And if not, which one are you drawn to?
Sunday trip to Desenzano
The Comic Book Store - Stuart, are you there?
A trip to Desenzano at Lake Garda, where friends of ours have their
comic book & gaming store. If you like comics, mangas, card or board games, they are your dealer. If they don't have it, they can probably get it for you. But sorry no, they aren't called Stuart. And you cannot meet Dr. Sheldon Cooper.
My son in heaven because he leaves the store with not only 4 new Iron Man comic books but also a little Iron Man figurine. The husband in heaven because he got his "Orfani" comic books. Then we found a little courtyard away from the Sunday masses to take a couple of outfit pictures. That's me happy too.

Una gita con destinazione Desenzano sul Lago di Garda, dove amici nostri hanno un negozio di fumetti e giochi. Se a voi piacciono fumetti, manga, giochi di carte o giochi da tavolo, loro sono i fornitori ideali. Se non lo hanno, probabilmente lo possono trovare.. Ma no, mi dispiace, non si chiamano Stuart. E' non si puo incontrare Sheldon Cooper.
Mio figlio era al settimo cielo perchè è uscito dal negozio non solo con 4 nuovi fumetti di Iron Man ma anche una piccola action figure del medesimo. Il marito al settimo cielo perchè ha recuperato due numeri di "Orfani". Poi abbiamo trovato un piccolo cortile lontano dalla folla della domenica, per scattare alcuni immagini del mio outfit. Allora ero contenta anch'io.

Ein Sonntagsausflug mit Ziel Desenzano am Gardasee, wo Freunde von uns einen
Laden fuer Comics & Spiele haben. Wenn Euch Comics, Mangas, Karten- oder Brettspiele gefallen, seid Ihr hier an der richtigen Adresse. Wenn Sie etwas nicht haben, koennen sie es mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit besorgen. Aber nein, tut mir leid, sie heissen nicht Stuart. Und Ihr koennt dort auch nicht Dr. Sheldon Cooper treffen.
Mein Sohn im 7. Himmel weil er das Geschaeft nicht nur mit 4 neuen Iron Man Comics verlaesst sondern auch noch mit einer Hero Clicks Iron Man Figur. Mein Mann im 7. Himmel, weil er seine Orfani Comics bekommen hat. Dann haben wir einen kleinen Innenhof gefunden, wo wir abseits der Massen schnell ein paar Fotos schiessen konnten. Da war ich dann auch gluecklich.

| The yellow and red Iron Man socks are awesome |
On Sunday May 18th I went to a fashion exhibition that took place over 3 days in this beautiful old Villa in a town near Brescia.
The exhibition was divided in two parts. One was dedicated to Gianfranco Ferré and the second part was fashion covering the whole century. In addition, there were Vintage stores from the area presenting their wares on two floors.
Today I am showing you the pictures I took at the part presenting Gianfranco Ferré's work. Such wonderful clothing, a lot of it in silk. I wanted to steal it off the mannequins and make a run for it.
