Vie Privée, Marie Antoinette, How to Steal a Million.

Updates March 19 2013

hello! I havent posted in a while so I feel like I should.
this is : Guinevere van Seenus for Helmut Lang, circa 2001

found this photo while scrolling through Tumblr. I like the pale pink light on her face and how there's little hints of it in her ankles. and in the big block of black too now that I look at it. it looks like there's clouds and stars in there too! Fashion photography really is an art; I love studying it. 

I've also gotten kinda into the magazine Vivre Paris 
I really, really, really want to subscribe to it but seeing as i live across the globe, the subscription price is a little... well.. pricey. I'll ask my dad and see how that goes. Either way, I was reading a little bit of it on the website tonight and I like it. Also I'm actually kindof understanding the language as I read it (!!!) and I even force myself not to translate it into English in my head. it's actually been kinda fun. if any of you read it-- let me know if you like it or not! 
well thats my daily update I guess. ILY all who have visited. I'll post again soon!

Job Description

when I become editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar, my first cover will be Sasha Pivovarova :
with a watery backdrop scene from Greece like this:

and then I will proceed to make Harper's Bazaar replace Vogue as the new fashion Bible.

Little Mermaid

Today I will give you an actual outfit post since really that is what my blog is supposed to be about.
I seriously wish I could pose somewhere other than in my bathroom with my digital camera but there weren't many options when I got home tonight from my friend's house. Either way, I really liked my outfit today because I felt like my skirt was so flattering and pretty. Literally this skirt is one of my favorite pieces, I got it on Black Friday 2011 for only 30 bucks. But the best part of my day was, I felt like a mermaid. I feel like I've always had a special connection to aquatic beautiful delicate things since I was a child. I always used to pretend I was a mermaid in my grandma's pool. The skirt was so tailored and flowwy and my hair was long and the green dye I put in months ago is still pretty bright. You can see it a bit in the first photo.  
I'm wearing:
Hollister tee customized by myself (if you can see it in the back there's ribboning on framing the shoulder blades)(you can buy this pretty much anywhere so I'm not adding a link)
Alexa Chung for Madewell maxi skirt (similar)

Vive La America

hello! I haven't posted in a few days and I'm sorry about that. I've been a little busy, Sunday night was crazy with homework and Monday was well...Monday.
so this is a photo of me that I took that I really liked. The post is called Vive La America becasue I was actually wearing a tank top with an American Flag on it, which I took a picture of but decided not to post. Either way, let me try to make some connection to America with this photo. Maybe it shows that people who are free are not always completely free. They must keep part of them hidden sometimes.

MANISH ARORA - READY TO WEAR - FALL WINTER 2013 - PARIS

since it's Paris Fashion Week, I thought I'd share some of my fashion prowess by sharing my thoughts on the shows. In terms of Manish Arora Fall/Winter 13, I think there is only one word to describe it: otherworldly.
here are some of my favorites:
the print here is so beautiful , very Salvador Dali-esque

again, I am reminded of other worlds and hallucinations when I look at his work.

the mask is reminiscent of a black lace veil, but in a nonconformist way. i feel as if it actually reveals more than it hides. the hair is so similar to Caroline Trentini and Chanel Iman's shoot in Vogue a few years back: 


this reminds me of a Galliano for Dior collection

very Daisy Buchanan. 
(all photos of the show via NowFashion.com, trentini/iman via Tumblr) 


color inspiration

beauty at Vivienne Westwood Red Label, fall/winter 2013. 
so beautiful. the way the colors flow into eachother on the eyes and the stain on the lips is just beautiful. also the overall look reminds me of this 
bust of a woman with a hat. by Pablo Picasso of course. 


Astrid Berges-Frisbey. can you be inspired by a face? I think so. also i kindof think she looks a bit like me which is nice. 

outfit 1: February 28, 2013



hee hee so outfit post number one! i felt really pretty today to be honest, and I got so many compliments on this look! It was also my friend's birthday which meant I just had to bring her balloons. Some of my friends saw me carrying them, and of course they thought it was my birthday.  Once I assured them it wasn't,  my one guy friend asked: "well if it's not your birthday then why do you look so cute?" aww. Also! I hope you don't find the webcam photos to be amateur, but I don't have access to a good photographer right now.
I also feel like this dress is similar to the latest from Dolce and Gabbana. (fall winter 2013)
which means I'm on point in the style department and I didn't even mean to be :)

so without further ado... heres what I'm wearing. 
Gilly Hicks street tee (similar)
Free People prayer bead pom pom necklace (similar)
send comments if you've got any.

Just a little intro...

hello everyone :) 
I'm Annunziata, but most people call me Nunzi. This blog is for my random thoughts, things that I love, and most importantly fashion. My favorite designer is Alexander McQueen. Also disclaimer: my outfit posts will probably be a mix of webcam photos and actual digital camera shots, depending on the day, and I will always provide links if the clothes are available to buy online. Also, I spend most of my internet time on Tumblr and NowFashion. My tumblr is st-mcqueen.tumblr.com. This I think will be a fun personal side project though. send love if you wish-- i'm always open for a chat. xx
