The beauty about taking pictures of strangers in the streets, is that it gives you the opportunity to travel without actually taking a plane! Like when I met Antara Motiwala… The beautiful fashion editor of GQ India, also known for her natural elegance and poise.

I remember being on my bike in between shows, during the last Milan men fashion week, when I spotted her across the street in Via Montenapoleone. Disregarding the traffic, I cycled into her direction and asked if I could take her picture. She kindly accepted, after which we talked a little about her and she told me that her stunning and original outfit was from a young talented Indian designer called Nishka Lulla. As you know, I am really into traditional/ethnic clothing so I was really happy to discover a new brand which I would have probably never heard off otherwise. A few days later, I went onto Nishka’s website and fell in love with most of the pieces from her collection, especially the blue version of what Antara is wearing and this white dress.

Today I feel like wearing a little skirt like the one of Caroline Issa. I remember how cool and casual she looked in her little black skirt which swung at each of her steps. She looked like a little doll and yet so feminine. To complete her look she wore beautiful orange red silk tank top and some simple black ballerinas.

I found out to be an extremely precious quality the ability to dress like doll while maintaining your womanhood… Some of us quickly look 10 years younger when dressing as such. Obviously Carolina doesn’t. And then, there is her hair… How does she make them so shiny? Don’t worry, I will investigate this for you… In the meantime, I’ll leave you with her beautiful smile!

Happy Saturday Mesdemoiselles! I have always loved wearing sport jersey, but for an unknown reason I haven’t been doing so in the last few years. Probably because I didn’t really know how to style them anymore. I remember, while studying my fashion degree in London, basing a whole project on sport jerseys so much I loved them. But the truth is that worn wrongly, they can easily make you look like a teenager or worst, like an extra from an hip hop video (The Nelly effect;-).

Fortunately, it is not the case here! This lovely Mademoiselle is looking pretty trendy and elegant with her blue jersey and matching navy see-through skirt. She decided to contrast her outfit’s blue palette with some colorful accessories and espadrilles.

Last week, while collaborating on a project with Elena Bragheri, we got to talk about men shirts and how there was nothing more beautiful than a woman wearing a masculine shirt… As a matter of fact, this is exactly what I thought when seeing Kenza for the first time..!

Aside from her utterly cute outfit, I immediately got drawn to her beautiful and light printed shirt… After a quick chat with the lovely girl, I learned that not only was she just starting her own label of men shirt but she was actually wearing one of her own model that day. I also learned that her shirts were carefully hand crafted in Morocco, where she is from.
