Here are my latest finds and news from style, fashion, film, photography and beautiful living.
We’ve had some beautiful fall days and the end of the week is supposed to be just as lovely. Lately I’ve spent many weekends trying to tie up loose ends and working on different projects, which I don’t usually mind, but I am glad this one is going to be different, spent out of the city, soaking in as much autumn sun as I can. This article on the art of weekend rest is also a good reminder to forget about your phone, laptop and social media and live a little! I hope you’ll do the same.
• Q&A with Giorgio Armani: on his self-portrait for his latest campaign, on his signature navy t-shirt and more – a designer to my liking.
• Given my love for Hitchcock’s films and for San Francisco, I don’t know how this book has escaped me: Footsteps in the Fog: Alfred Hitchcock’s San Francisco
• It feels so good to relate to someone else’s opinion on what true style really is about.
• I’m on the hunt for these bangles, resembling so much these ones.
• I would love to see classic films brought back into the spotlight more often, as it’s been happening annually in Lyon since 2009 at The Lumière Film Festival (October 16th-18th).
• This blog, Humans of New York, is so great! A different kind of street photography, not only portraits of the people of NY, but their stories too. This photo is one of my favourites.
• Home-made goodies make the most thoughtful, nicest harvest gift.

Love Humans of New York. I’ve been following them on FB for a while now.
Just read the true style post and absolutely agree with her point of view, though with the overwhelming number of street style bloggers and the hype about them posts like these will, unfortunately, remain a minority…
By the way, have you heard that Nicolas is the new LV designer? Cannot wait to see what he comes up with. x
I have heard about Nicolas Ghesquière, but I wasn’t sure if it was official yet.
Well, I just feel like we need some good news – may not be 100% official, but still…
Yes, this is indeed good news, and if it’s true I’m very excited to follow his tenure at LV.
Gorgeous photo!
I will be checking these lovely links while making the Fridays pizzas later. Have a wonderful weekend ; – )
Love that Humans of NY blog!
Thanks for the wonderful links def checking them out! also i know what you mean sometime is difficult to enjoy the weekend when we are still not done with work. The hubby and I are trying to turn our electronics off at 5 on the weekend and just enjoy the evening. Hopefully soon we could do it for the full weekend.

I love that photo of Sophia Loren, and have already got it pinned! She’s so natural and beautiful in that shot. I thoroughly enjoyed, agreed with, and loved Amanda Brook’s take on style over fashion having come out of the ‘zone’ looking back in. All those images she selected were so natural and easy and simple and they said so much about the person wearing the clothes too; lovely!
Hope you got my email Ada…xx
i also love HONY. i love that he interacts and talks with the people he is photographing and he’s done some amazing philanthropic work from it as well.
