Bellissima Barbie...by isa maïsa for Benjamin Kanarek Blog
As Barbie, I love going to Italy because I am inamorato with the Italianmen. I can just stare at them all day drinking my cafe macchiatos andsnarfing down my pasta!! My Ken is not too pleased but Que. sera, sera.But I am here not only to shop my way through the Milan fashion showsso let the games begin... !!!!
My favorite Milan show is DSquared²! Hits the tomboy side of me which I have been leaning towards throughout this S/S 2011 season. Myfavourites are (drum roll, please!):
With its great thrown together look. And more Oxford's flats. First in London and now in Milan. Hey, I think it may be a trend...
A chic and sassy combo. If you want it sexier as this Barbie does, unbutton the buttons, girlfriends!!!
The putty-coloured crisp dress is a classic but it is also a mini dressso it adds some 'hipness' to it. Adding the dark chocolate brownSafari-jacket screams classy Italian.
Alberta Ferretti pieces could easily work with the Ralph Lauren leather and lace ensembles from New York. I only eyed two whichis not a lot from this design house. They are:
A casual Baja cool with its linen trunks and a loose lace shirt. Both pieces are wearable and I find this to be essential when I buy. Wewant our wardrobe to work for us!
It is the same putty and white colour scheme but a more relaxed, loungelook. I like it and I see myself walking along a beach with the waveslapping up against me.
Emilio Pucci had only one possibility and it is a mini white laced-tunicdress with a royal blue print. The boots are bad but we must not be ina hurry to lace these babies up.
Black has never been my black, I tend to lean towards a very dark chocolate brown but surprisingly I am enchanted with two pieces fromBottega Veneta. A comfortable smock dress with easy throw on sandalsand an incredible black jumpsuit
I would add this GUCCI's as equally hot. I really like this jumpsuit!
Fendi had some casual and fun get ups. Deep colours that would go wellwith a nice tan. These two pieces work well for sight seeing, going tothe markets, picking up your children from school. Basically, everydaytasks. Depending on the job, they may be too casual and bright but thenagain I may be wrong.
White is big and I love this dress. With a touch of colour on the lips and shoes, it keeps it from being boring. The sweet little cottonball bolero could easily be worn with other purchased pieces I havegathered.
Here I go again with the bad-girl look! From sweet and innocent to kickass, I am having some key pieces from Gucci. Aaaaahhhh, the bad girlthing with a great pair of black leather pants worn with a supercrocheted/macrame/knitted top. Sold to this Barbie!! But the best arethe jodhpurs, I am in love with them. Cut at the knees or mid-calf, theylook great with any top or jacket as you see with these varieties.
Jodhpurs are definitely going to be seen this Spring and Summer so get yourselves a pair!!!!
And last but never least, a few pieces more to add to my incredible wardrobe...
MaxMara has a great little combo with its tight pants, thin belt and colourful boatneck tee. I hated the shoes, however.
Versace has two dresses:
A great little dress filled colours and a deep open neck. Nothing is sexier, in my opinion, then a deep cleavage no matter what bust-line.
And finally, a Hot dress for a hot Barbie body. A very chic look!
On to Paris, Cherie's!!!
