Naturally Pittsburgh was ranked quite highly on the list, frankly not high enough. Coming in at a cool #3, Pittsburgh represents jerseys (and not even pretty ones at that), poorly cut blue jeans and a variety of over sized, puffy and dark cold weather garments.</p><p class="MsoNormal">

All of the blood, sweat and tears that go into the glossies shouldn’t just be abandoned because each photograph has been admired and word read. I’ve been known to transport magazines on international flights because I simply cannot leave them behind, seriously. Magazines are heavy, take up a ton of space and add to the clutter factor in any room. I am starting to drown in back issues…And then I stumbled upon this from Apartment Living!

They come in a variety of different colors and can fold up quite small. There’s nothing that freaks me out more than girls walking barefoot home after a long night out. Just slip these little guys into your purse and wear cushy shoes in the a.m. instead of heels.

I certainly can’t think of anything better than examining elegant and famous footwear for a few hours. Best of all, there are no large tour groups threatening your life if you even think about moving just one step closer to The Birth of Venus</span><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> So </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">drop the other shoe</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">, if you will, and complete your next trip to Florence with a museum that puts fashion and business into perspective</span><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">.</span></span></div><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">The Museo Salvatore Ferragamo is the only museum in the world dedicated to one designer and his fabulous shoes</span><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> And rightfully so, Salvatore began making shoes at the tender age of nine years old and never stopped</span><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> Born in the south of Italy in 1898, Salvatore was one of the designers who would help Italian fashion rise to what it is today</span><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> Forget the Uffizi and the Academia; this is my kind of museum. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">The museum opened in 1995 to display and commemorate over forty years of Ferragamo shoes</span><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> The Museum’s collection is based on over ten thousand shoes, as if that weren’t every girl’s dream, which were all created by Ferragamo</span><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> The museum displays worn shoes, donated shoes, new shoes and everything in between</span><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> Most crucially, the museum rotates the shoes through and changes the exhibitions at least twice a year, so there is always something new and fun to see in the museum</span><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">I took more photos in that museum then I did the duration of my time in Italy (4 months). I have priorities. Sadly, I found out photography wasn’t allowed after I made it through, so I decided I better not post them. But I found some others. The first is the shoe from the Drew Barrymore Film: Ever after.

Leather bands, rather than tradional straps, bury the face of the watch; her watches are some of the most unique pieces I've seen. She allows her customers to match any face with any band. I got two bands, one practical black and one not so practical teal. Her watches have been featured in several magazines, worn by a few celebs, and are gaining a lot of national attention. I'm glad I rocked mine again! </span></span></p></span>Juliannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00011324140827055338noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833343988393344691.post-20719159353981015892011-04-29T08:30:00.001-07:002011-04-29T08:33:12.281-07:00Simply Breathtaking<div><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilpKcHVJJbpq-ps7eYtcHhSqO6xii-r-gGCnV6CzXECZqsqM0-3C4dJVPNU7jaDt_RMDJz8gufu7XGQ3f-zrW3fiD-SfL4bUTp4SRj5FKS8dd_KMYaVkr5Tado3w-zuOAWESukTM6ChyphenhyphenTy/s1600/kate_middleton_wedding_dress_m.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 279px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilpKcHVJJbpq-ps7eYtcHhSqO6xii-r-gGCnV6CzXECZqsqM0-3C4dJVPNU7jaDt_RMDJz8gufu7XGQ3f-zrW3fiD-SfL4bUTp4SRj5FKS8dd_KMYaVkr5Tado3w-zuOAWESukTM6ChyphenhyphenTy/s400/kate_middleton_wedding_dress_m.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601028590184138210" /></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px; "><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Sarah Burton did a tremendous job.

Two weeks ago, I was traveling around the south of Italy and visited the Amalfi coast one day. I was shopping around the seaside town without intending to buy anything (at times, my own naivety shocks me). I left a majority of my money and all of my credit cards at home—it’s better to be safe than sorry in Italy. Because I wasn’t going to buy anything, right?</span></div> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Wrong. I spotted this beauty and couldn’t live without it. It was actually very affordable but I had to empty my wallet to purchase it (and in doing so, saw my lunch, dinner and snack money for the 8 hour bus ride home vanish). But I love it and perhaps it looks better on a slightly more slender finger??</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxaWdqhyzrsMOAE5rgC_vHCnWbsITdgoD5FIMpJ_rZVhhLXwJdujebmqVtQzoYR-KSAjUoxZs5GywvIfl6E5cg5AEQL7OAQMgOBKB6aKnGpNvTUI_B5r1E1MSeK_0Mm95Q-SFJVkGmaY80/s400/IMG_3627.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5599547817563874082" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px; " /></span></p> <!--EndFragment-->Juliannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00011324140827055338noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833343988393344691.post-53241278154567645482011-04-17T05:02:00.000-07:002011-04-17T08:08:13.817-07:00Is It Spring? Or Am I Crazy?<div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-size:medium;">The funny thing about Italians is that they dress for the calendar, not the weather.</span></div> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">As soon as I arrived to Italy I was overwhelmed by the thousands and thousands of puffy, shiny, jackets I spotted. Everywhere, in every color, with all sorts of variations. Some with fur, some with extra shine, some that had a bit of length. But they were all shiny and puffy. No question. (I’m sure they will arrive to the US sometime soon). They look like this:</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsirN6vnAWtH2XvRPnR9h3fEXeEExau3gHSelRo2rd2V_RThpkmvq3SQrc77OamSYBs33pQKOMKB-Nc48RM9k7jrhONS_RfFQ3uFFGqX0Qb8WDWfDnJPKa-AqFkGmf60euVzAt4bmfkF5g/s400/pyrenex-vintage-1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5596521801138526850" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 297px; " /></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">I expected these jackets to disappear when spring arrived to Florence. Last week I was actually boiling in my shorts and blouse, only to be surrounded by Italians, still rocking these jackets. It’s spring, it’s not summer so the Italians just can’t peel off the layers quite yet… Crazy. </span></p> <!--EndFragment-->Juliannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00011324140827055338noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833343988393344691.post-67340503924988969472011-04-12T05:26:00.000-07:002011-04-12T05:29:37.858-07:00These Toms Are Made For Walking<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7ip6wQ7EV46xVBgKXO979vXrIzLeVcd_VME9b2dI67l4i4uajCj1dsWKany9UghTvc73o4iYC9bkpxMur7ggNhO_fQvDhqukshF4VgcgkBE0eW2um_2cto7CXuor1qipmnvofWUFwkE8-/s1600/Toms.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7ip6wQ7EV46xVBgKXO979vXrIzLeVcd_VME9b2dI67l4i4uajCj1dsWKany9UghTvc73o4iYC9bkpxMur7ggNhO_fQvDhqukshF4VgcgkBE0eW2um_2cto7CXuor1qipmnvofWUFwkE8-/s400/Toms.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5594672648134361810" /></a> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">I used to write off Toms. Of course, I could get on board with it's awesome cause but I thought all you'd need was some neon colored Ray Bans and a fedora to complete the hipster identity. I found them rather funny (ie terrible) looking.</span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">But before I left for my time in Italy I buckled; I was desperate for a pair of shoes to hike, sight see, and generally travel around in. But of course, I had no desire to look silly. I bought some comfy Toms (still wasn't totally ok with the purchase) but figured I may as well do some good with a questionable fashion choice. </span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Sometime during tromping around the ruins of Pompeii, biking through Barcelona, hiking in Cinque Terre and climbing along the coast of Ireland the Toms grew on me. I never got a blister (this is a miracle for me). While they'll certainly be left in Europe they hold a special place for me. And most importantly, I think it's possible to assemble a travel ready ensemble that goes quite well with Toms.</span></p>Juliannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00011324140827055338noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833343988393344691.post-78235364356711528842011-04-06T02:30:00.000-07:002011-04-05T02:32:42.696-07:00Fashion Fairs<div><!--StartFragment--> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Florence holds a fashion fair once person season.
