CITYist

Perhaps we were inspired by Queen Madge’s recent appearance in the Fall/Winter Dolce & Gabanna campaign, or a lingering impact of Ellen von Unwerth’s spread for Italian Vogue, but Italian chic is totally on our radar for fall. Wing-tipped specs, kohl-rimmed eyes…it’s all about mixing 40s femme with 60s vixen. So put on Fergie’s “Be Italian”, and check out our roundup of this fall trend (including chic pieces to buy). Viva Italia!
