Chillin'

Jamiroquai chilling in 2005...perfect for a summer day, although I would wear some color instead of black.

Good times

Bianca Jagger celebrating her birthday in the legendary Studio 54 with her husband back then, Mick Jagger, and famed russian dancer Mihail Baryshnikov. A perfect example of late 70s menswear: open collar shirts and a leisure jacket.

No Me Pentiro

This time, it's not only about fashion but also about music. Below is the cover of Mo'Plen Bacharach: The Burt Bacharach Italian Songbook; and the first thing that greets the eye is the very late 60s photograph. The two men dressed in hippie/paisley inspired shirts and white trousers, and the girls wearing an Asian inspired minidress & a paisley blouse.

Now who is Burt Bacharach??? The quintessential American 60s songwriter and composer who along with those who performed his songs made up the soundtrack for many people around 1962-1968. His music can be classified as easy listening, pop, jazz, and relaxing. This CD has italian versions of his all time hits and I recommend it very much if you're eager to get into a 60s mood. Jenny Luna's rendition of "Walk On By" (No Me Pentiro) was used on one of the latest Gucci shows.

Greek Party

Back from my vacations....Iceberg launched an advertising campaign several years ago in which Fernanda Tavares was featured as Jackie Kennedy Onassis, recreating scenes from her years as Jackie O (1967-1975). Here she is show attending a summer party at the island of Skorpios, Greece with her husband, Aristotle Onassis; and his two children: Christina and Alexandros.
