Street style Istanbul, part 1

Because I have so many pictures with outfits I liked on Istanbul Fashion Days, I decided to post a part of them on our magazine site, and the other part on the print magazine. So, here is a selection of the first photos...

Mixed looks



Subject: my favorite looks for this week. Cast: celebrities. Bonus: a few tips related to the pictures I numbered from 1 to 4. Enjoy!
1. For this spring I will surely love the all-white outfit; in this case, the mix of flares, a simple t-shirt and a glam vest brings a vintage and hippie allure, so characteristic to Erin Wasson.
2. The masculine oversized coat worn with leggings is a fashionable substitute of a dress. Choose,(like Irina Lazareanu did),a sequin long blazer and some leggings with leather details.
3. I looove this Chloe pants combined with a simple t-shirt and a leather jacket!Because the print of the pants is pretty strong, this mix I find it the best and "sure" choice. In the same combiantion, you can replace the animal print pants with some flower print pants or a short printed skirt.
4. For the full-hearted, try a complete look in leather. Leather is on the catwalk for this season, so a pair of shorts or a skirt is a must. If you are not brave enough for a complete look, then combine leather pieces with t-shirts or silk blouses and overlap a leather corset with a t-shirt.

I love shopping trips

Preparing the new issue of Bolero Magazine, I remembered about a nice article I wrote when I was in Vienna. With the help of the Embassy of Austria and guided by a very cool stylist from there, Stefanie Lingg, I enjoyed a full day of shopping there. I walked on the 7th District, a cool area with designer shops, I noted all the interesting tips that Stefanie told me and met very nice young designers. Also, I didn't ignored the stylish people I saw on the streets... Enjoy the full articles that appeared on the January 2010 issue.. And right now, I'm writing about shooping in Istanbul... So... keep in touch!

A source of shopping... and inspiration

I could say that for aprox. one year I am following this wonderful on-line shopping site. And from my own experience I tell you.. If you find the prices too spicy, at least take a look on the collections because you will find some interesting and fancy outfit combinations. If you don't shop, at least get your daily inspiration from the best! And think positive: in the future, you will also have money to buy them. Enjoy! A.

Not just a simple photo...

Irving Penn (1917–2009) was one of the great photographers of our time. He photographed an extraordinary range of sitters from the worlds of literature, music and the visual and performing arts. His portofolio includes photos of celebrities like Truman Capote, Christian Dior, Grace Kelly, Al Pacino, Edith Piaf. So, if on your next agenda you put a trip to London, then don't miss Irving Penn exhibition from National Gallery. It will run from 18 February to 6 June 2010 and after London will tour to Palazzo delle Esposizioni, Rome - from 1 July to 19 September 2010.

Istanbul Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2010

I was thinking what to choose for my first post, and the first thing that came into my mind was Istanbul Fashion Week 2010. Thanks to the Turkey Embassy and the organizers, I've had the chance to participate for the second time. This time I could stay just for one day (the entire event lasted 4 days), but enough time to make some new fashionable contacts, some pictures and, of course, to enjoy a full day of designer shows. So, let's get on the catwalk!
