Kelly and I are having so much fun in Florence at the Luisa Via Roma Firenze4Ever 4th edition Style Lab! We’ve decided that if this blogging thing doesn’t work out for us, we will try to find a gig styling photo shoots.
We were asked to style 3 looks, and we decided to do the following:
1. Urban Glam
2. Modern Italian Contessa
3. Cheesy Reality TV Star.
Hope you enjoy these photos. Special thanks to our model Barbara– I put her through all kinds of crazy make up/hair demands and she was a trooper! Special thanks to the dance crew we found on the streets- The Pichula Boyz Crew, I want to know how to do that headstand!
Last but not least, huge thanks to Tommaso Fontanella, the best photographer in Florence!


For our “Urban Glam” look, we chose the following:
Valentino – Silk Cady Jumpsuit
Alexander McQueen – Lurex Silk Lamè Jacket
Camilla Skovgaard – 120MM Calfskin Open Toe Low Boots
Fendi – Chameleon Shoulder Bag
MODERN ITALIAN CONTESSA:
Lanvin – Cotton Tweed Jacket
Nina Ricci – Blended Tweed Jacket
Valentino – Toile Ruche On Viscose Knit Top
Emilio Pucci – Marquise Nappa Solid Shoulder Bag
Valentino – 70MM Soft Calfskin Pointy Pumps

CHEESY REALITY TV STAR
I will not name any names here but you know who the inspiration was. This insanely cool dress is by Fausto Puglisi worn with a Louboutin clutch.
