Dear followers,<br />
<br />
how are you? How was the first week of the new year?<br />
<br />
As I have anticipated in my last <a href="http://thefashionablebooklounge.blogspot.it/2013/12/merry-christmas-and-happy-2014.html">post</a>, here I am, celebrating the beginning of 2014 sharing with you this amazing interview I had the pleasure to have with <a href="http://sacfashionweek.com/ourteam">Duane Ram</a>, the Producer and the Executive Director of <a href="http://sacfashionweek.com/">Sacramento Fashion Week</a>.<br />
I had the great honor to meet Duane in person last November in Sacramento, California, during one of Sacramento Fashion Affair events. It was held in <a href="http://www.trumpette.com/?gclid=CPC0yZu-7rsCFcud3godKCUAFQ">Trumpette Inc</a> building.<br />
<br />
Here you can see a couple of pictures of me (blonde one with Wonder Anatomie bone jacket) and Duane and some fashion designers at the event, taken by the official photographer of the event, <a href="http://kondryaphotography.com/">Igor Kondrya</a>.<br />

<div style="color: #500050;">
<br /></div>
<b>TFL: Do you remember your first Sac Fashion Week?</b></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> Sac Fashion Week started from a Mixer in 2004. I had just moved out to Sacramento from the San Francisco Bay Area and was attending a model casting. There I met a small group of individuals that included photographers and designers who were trying to organize an event to connect the local fashion community. The event turned out great and we were all amazed at how many people attended. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>TFL: Do you remember how you got started with it?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D: </b>I started with the production as a model. At the time I had already been working in the industry for a few years. It also helped that I had done a number of fashion shows through out California, including LA Fashion Week and San Francisco Fashion Week. So the production relied on my experience to cast and train the models. As the years went by, I kept getting more and more involved with the behind the scenes, and eventually taking on the role of Executive Director and Producer in 2010.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>TFL: Duane, you are an American actor and model, why did you want to start this amazing adventure of Sacramento Fashion Week? Could you tell me about your passion for fashion?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> When I moved out to Sacramento, I was a little disappointed that there wasn't much happening in terms of the fashion scene. There were shows happening but they were mostly in clubs and bars. I knew that because I participated as a model in them, and they weren't doing the designers justice. They were entertaining but that's all they were doing. As a model, I couldn't really use the pictures from these shows, and it was also difficult to even get a copy of them. No one was really working together. I was still very active as an actor and model in San Francisco, and I was involved in fashion shows in San Francisco. I saw first hand how they put them together. They had them in ballrooms and huge venues that were presented and light up well. They had better pictures but it was still a difficult task to get them as a model. <span style="font-size: 9pt;">So what I did was take my </span>experience<span style="font-size: 9pt;"> from different shows and </span>incorporate<span style="font-size: 9pt;"> what I </span>believed<span style="font-size: 9pt;"> worked into our production. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span style="color: #500050;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<b><span style="font-size: 12px;">TFL: </span><span style="font-size: 13px;">Next February 2014 Sac Fashion Week will celebrate its 8</span><sup style="font-size: 13px;">th</sup><span style="font-size: 13px;"> </span><span style="font-size: 13px;">birthday, isn’t it? How will you celebrate? Where will it be held? And when?</span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> Every Fashion Week is actually a birthday party if you think about it. We will start off with a Launch Party on Sunday, February 16th and the week will run through Saturday, February 22nd. Things are always changing but you can be sure we will have 3 days of fashion showcases. <span style="font-size: 9pt;">When we started, we only had one showcase and a launch party. Not every city has a full week but we have managed to do so. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span style="color: #500050;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<b><span style="font-size: 12px;">TFL: </span><span style="font-size: 13px;">I know the main theme of Sac Fashion Week 2014 will be fashion and technology. Can you explain this concept to me?</span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D: </b>This year we are trying to show how fashion has grown and that technology has a big part in that. Earlier this year, Lady Gaga presented the first ever flying dress at the launch of her new album. We don't quite have flying dresses taking off the runway but it just goes to show the industry is evolving. There is a company out of San Francisco called Future tech wear. They are working on a line of electronic clothing and has started a kickstarter account introducing Zackees Turn Signal Gloves. Clothing made for cyclic that signals when the rider is turning.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>TFL: Could you tell us how many fashion shows will there be next February?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> We have 3 fashion showcases happening in February. The designer showcases happens on Friday, February 21st and Saturday, February 22nd. On Friday we have 8 designers showcasing Spring/Summer Collections and then on Saturday another 8 designers will be showcasing Winter/Fall Collections. On Thursday, February 20th there is the boutique showcase where we bring in 6 boutiques from in and around Sacramento to set up a pop up boutique in the venue. This will give all the attendees an opportunity to shop and check out a store they may not have known about. In addition to these featured boutiques, we will also have food, wine and jewelry vendors creating a unique shop and dine experience. The event climax will be when the 6 boutiques all take to the runway one after the other presenting the newest looks for the season, which will all be available for purchase right after the show.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span style="color: #500050; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 7pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<b><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">TFL: </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 7pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">I know you have a great goal for your Sac Fashion Week: to let it be bigger and bigger as the years go on. Do you think it can be a new NYFW?</span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D: </b>We can certainly try and we do aim to be like NYFW, but we can't do what New York does. Every city is different, and we have to cater it to our surroundings to make it work. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span style="color: #500050;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>TFL: Tell us how is a typical SAC Fashion Week day.</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> Well one of the hardest days is Friday. Main reason is because we just do the boutique showcase and we have to totally change the whole staging set up for the designer showcase. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Starting from 7:00 a.m. the staging crew and all the staff starts transforming the previous nights set up into a totally different look and things unfold as the day goes on: from the cleaning operations to the meetings over the process of the day, the hair and make up stylists get ready to set up of the backstage, the models arrive and get prepared. The runway seating is prepared and we meet often to check that everything is ok. In the afternoon the media and the VIPs arrive and at 7:00 p.m. the general admission starts. The show ends at around 10:00 p.m. and we make an appearance at the after party. The night ends at 1:00 a.m. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
That's a full day, isn't it?</div>
<div class="im" style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<div style="color: #500050;">
<br /></div>
<b>TFL: Do you want to share a couple of names of designers with whom you’re working for the next SAC Fashion Week?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> I always like to invite back a couple of past designers that presented well. It helps to give the show some continuity. It also shows that designers like doing our showcase and want to return. Last year designer <a href="http://nolankouristudio.com/">Michael Kouri</a> owed the audience with his dramatic designs so we are looking forward to his Fall/Winter 2014 Collection. Also returning are local favorites designes <a href="http://www.lovebyjc.com/">Janelle Cardenas</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Echoinwinter">Yennie Zhou</a> and <a href="http://maishabahati.com/index.html">Maisha Bahati</a> We also have a special returning guest designer <a href="http://www.vasilyvein.com/">Vasily Vein</a>, whose collections always bring out the <i>wow</i> factor.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>TFL: Could you tell me where my readers can follow SAC Fashion Week news and updates? </b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

Carissimi lettori,<br />
<br />
come state? Come avete trascorso la vostra prima settimana del 2014?<br />
<br />
Come vi avevo anticipato nel mio ultimo <a href="http://thefashionablebooklounge.blogspot.it/2013/12/merry-christmas-and-happy-2014.html">post</a>, eccomi qui a festeggiare l'arrivo del 2014 condividendo con voi un'intervista speciale che ho proposto a <a href="http://sacfashionweek.com/ourteam">Duane Ram</a>, il Produttore e il Direttore Esecutivo della <a href="http://sacfashionweek.com/">Sacramento Fashion Week</a>.<br />
Ho avuto il piacere di incontrare di persona Duane lo scorso novembre a Sacramento, California, durante uno degli eventi organizzati dalla Sacramento Fashion Week, tenutosi presso il <a href="http://www.trumpette.com/?gclid=CPC0yZu-7rsCFcud3godKCUAFQ">Trumpette Inc</a> building.<br />

Eccovi un paio di foto di me (bionda con giacca Wonder Anatomie con scheletro) e Duane e alcuni stilisti all'evento, fotografati dal fotografo ufficiale, <a href="http://kondryaphotography.com/">Igor Kondrya</a>.<br />

<div style="color: #500050;">
<br /></div>
<b>TFL: Ti ricordi ancora la tua prima SAC Fashion Week? </b></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D: </b>La Sac Fashion Week ebbe inizio con un evento organizzato nel 2004. Mi ero di recente trasferito a Sacramento da San Francisco e stavo prendendo parte ad un casting per modelli. Incontrai un ristretto gruppo di persone, tra le quali fotografi e stilisti, che stavano cercando di organizzare un evento che mettesse in comunicazione tutti i soggetti della comunità legata alla moda di Sacramento. L'evento fu un successone e tutti rimanemmo stupefatti dalla quantità enorme di persone che vi partecipò. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>TFL: E ti ricordi come hai iniziato? </b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D: </b>Ho iniziato come modello. Al tempo avevo già lavorato nel settore moda da parecchi anni, e il fatto di aver partecipato a un numero discreto di fashion shows in California (comprese la LA Fashion Week e la San Francisco Fashion Week) è stato un elemento a mio favore. Pertanto, la produzione si basava sulla mia esperienza per la selezione e il training dei modelli e delle modelle. Con il passare degli anni, sono stato sempre di più coinvolto nel dietro le quinte e alla fine eccomi qui, a rivestire il ruolo di Produttore e Direttore Esecutivo, dal 2010. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<b><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">TFL: Duane, tu sei un attore e un modello americano, come mai hai iniziato questa incredibile avventura della SAC Fashion Week? Potresti parlarmi della tua passione per la moda?</span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> Quando mi spostai a Sacramento, rimasi un po' deluso da quanto stava accadendo nella moda. Esistevano sfilate ed eventi, ma avevano luogo principalmente nei locali e nei bar. Erano eventi d'intrattenimento, ma nulla più. Come modello, non avevo la possibilità di utilizzare le fotografie di quelle sfilate, addirittura era estremamente complicato averne le copie. Nessuno lavorava in team. Ero, all'epoca, molto attivo come attore e modello a San Francisco e partecipavo a molte sfilate ed eventi nella città. Quindi, vedevo con i miei occhi come quegli eventi venivano organizzati: le location erano sale da ballo e luoghi imponenti, curati nei dettagli con luci e tutto il resto. Le foto che ne uscivano erano di certo migliori, ma ancora una volta quasi impossibili da avere, per te che eri un modello. Perciò, quello che decisi di fare fu prendere la mia esperienza da diversi eventi di moda e incorporarla in quello che credevo avrebbe funzionato per la creazione della nostra produzione. <span style="font-size: 9pt;"> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

<b><span style="font-size: 12px;">TFL: </span><span style="font-size: 13px;">Il prossimo febbraio la Sac Fashion Week compirà il suo ottavo compleanno, esatto? Come festeggerete? Dove sarà tenuta e quando? </span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> Ogni Fashion Week, se ci pensi, è come una festa di compleanno. Terremo un party di inizio la domenica 16 febbraio, e la settimana sarà densa di eventi fino al sabato 22 febbraio. Le cose cambiano in fretta, ma puoi stare certa che ci saranno tre giornate piene di sfilate. Quando iniziammo, avevamo solo una giornata di sfilate e un parti inaugurale. Non tutte le città hanno una settimana intera di Fashion Week, ma noi alla fine ce l'abbiamo fatta. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span style="color: #500050;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<b><span style="font-size: 12px;">TFL: So che il tema principale della</span><span style="font-size: 13px;"> Sac Fashion Week 2014 sarà moda e tecnologia. Potresti spiegarmi meglio questo concetto? </span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D: </b>Quest'anno stiamo cercando di mostrare come la moda sia cresciuta e stia crescendo e come la tecnologia rivesta un ruolo fondamentale in tutto questo. L'anno scorso Lady Gaga presentò il primissimo esemplare di abito volante al lancio del suo nuovo album. Non avremo abiti volanti che spiccheranno il volo dalla passerella, ma avremo qualche chicca per dimostrare come l'industria si stia evolvendo. Esiste un'azienda a San Francisco, chiamata Future tech wear, al lavoro su una linea di tessuti elettronici e ha presentato i guanti <a href="http://zackees.com/">Zackees Turn Signal Gloves</a>: tessuti costruiti per i ciclisti che segnalano quando il ciclista sta girando. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>TFL: Quante sfilate ci saranno a febbraio alla Fashion Week?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> Come già ti anticipavo, avremo tre giornate di sfilate, a Febbraio. Gli stilisti avranno le loro giornate il venerdì 21 e il sabato 22. Il venerdì avremo 8 stilisti che presenteranno le loro collezioni Primavera/Estate e poi il sabato avremo altri 8 stilisti con le loro collezioni Autunno/Inverno. Il giovedì 20, invece, ci sarà una specie di mostra delle boutique: 6 boutique provenienti dalla zona di Sacramento installeranno una boutique nell'edificio. Questo darà l'opportunità ai partecipanti di fare shopping e di conoscere negozi che, magari, non avevano mai visto. Oltre a queste boutique selezionate, avremo stand con una selezione raffinata di cibi e vini e anche gioielli, per creare un'esperienza di shop-and-dine unica. Il climax dell'evento verrà raggiunto quando le 6 boutique presenteranno i loro abiti in una sfilata, una dopo l'altra. </div>

<div style="background-color: white;">
<b><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">TFL:</span><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"> So che hai, per la tua SAC Fashion Week, un grande obiettivo: farla crescere sempre più con il passare del tempo. Dici che ce sarà la nuova NYFW? </span></b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D: </b>Possiamo sempre provarci e ci piacerebbe moltissimo, ma non possiamo fare come New York. Ogni città è differente e dobbiamo cercare di raccogliere le forze che ci circondano e farle andare verso gli obiettivi giusti. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

<b>TFL: Raccontaci una giornata tipo della SAC Fashion Week. </b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> Una delle giornate campali è il venerdì. La ragione principale di ciò è che dobbiamo ridisegnare tutto il layout della location per dare spazio alle sfilate per le boutique. Inizierà di certo presto, alle 7 di mattina, con lo staff che inizierà il processo di trasformazione della location, pulizie, cambio di look. Poi ci saranno molti meeting, ai quali parteciperemo per assicurarci che le cose procedano come dovuto. Poi arrivano i truccatori e i parrucchieri, che allestiscono il backstage. Dopo di loro arrivano le modelle e i modelli e si comincia con la preparazione. Poi vengono preparate le sedute e ci sono continui meeting. Nel pomeriggio arrivano i media e i VIP e alle 7 iniziamo con l'entrata delle persone. Le sfilate hanno inizio e il tutto finisce versore 10 di sera. Poi tutti all'after party. La fine di tutto, e l'ora del riposo, arriva verso l'una di notte. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Una lunga giornata, no?</div>

<b>TFL: Ti va di condividere con noi alcuni nomi di stilisti con i quali stai lavorando per la prossima SAC Fashion Week?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>D:</b> Mi piace sempre invitare alcuni stilisti delle scorse edizioni che hanno fatto un buon lavoro, in questo modo diamo continuità allo show e dimostriamo anche come gli stilisti stessi siano felici di ritornare. Lo scorso anno lo stilista <a href="http://nolankouristudio.com/">Michael Kouri</a> ha sbalordito l'audience con le sue opere d'impatto, perciò non vediamo l'ora di vedere la sua collezione Autunno/Inverno 2014. Altri che ritorneranno sono i nostri "locali" preferiti: <a href="http://www.lovebyjc.com/">Janelle Cardenas</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Echoinwinter">Yennie Zhou</a> e <a href="http://maishabahati.com/index.html">Maisha Bahati</a>. Ritornerà anche, evento speciale, come ospite, <a href="http://www.vasilyvein.com/">Vasily Vein</a>, le cui collezioni fanno sempre rimanere a bocca aperta.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Good afternoon everyone!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As I have <a href="http://thefashionablebooklounge.blogspot.it/2013/11/blogging-from-california.html">anticipated</a>, here is another super-interesting interview from California!!!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Tell me your thoughts! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">When I
first set foot in Folsom Historic District, I was amazed by the leap back in
time I was experiencing. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">I had my
very first meeting of my USA business trip with Teresa, the owner of <a href="http://celestinabridal.com/">CelestinaBridal Boutique</a> (604 Sutter Street, Suite 170, Folsom, CA 95630). <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Celestina
Bridal Boutique is like entering into a parallel world, a universe of white,
blossoming, charming flowers. And we meet her: Teresa. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Teri (as
her friends call her) is the tall and gorgeous owner of Celestina Bridal
Boutique. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Her Boutique
was opened last August and it looks like it has always been there. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Sitting in
the heart of this magical place, surrounded by amazing dresses and gowns, I had
the honor to interview Teri. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">TFL: Is
“Celestina Bridal Boutique” a name you chose personally? And why did you choose
“Celestina”?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Teri: Yes,
I personally chose the name of my Boutique and I chose Celestina because in
Italian it means Heavenly and since I want all my brides to feel like in Heaven
when they are here looking for their favorite gown, I thought that name was
simply perfect. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">TFL: Before
opening your Celestina Bridal Boutique you used to work as an HR manager in
different environments and in the retail sector. Therefore, this is a pretty
big change in your life, isn’t it? Why did you decide to open a Bridal
Boutique? How did it change your life? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Teri: Oh
well, it is indeed something different, since this is the very first time I am
on my own and have to manage all the aspects of a business. Nevertheless, I
have always been fond of fashion, and I think the bridal sector is a part of
it. It changed my life because working on your own is challenging and is not
always easy, mainly when you start. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">TFL: In
your boutique your brides can find many dresses and gowns from Demetrios and
Cosmo Bella brands. Do you embrace Demetrios’ statement: “ I like things to
look light and delicate”? Do you think it applies only to wedding dresses or
also to everyday elegance?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Teri: I
don’t like the word embrace. I do not <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">embrace</i>
his statement, I agree with it. The wedding dress could be light and delicate,
but it is not an overall statement. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">TFL: What
should a bride do when choosing her wedding dress? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Teri: I
would say she needs to have no rules, to go beyond borders and to never say no.
She should get free from preconceived notions and feel free to try on what she
really likes. I want my brides to feel good in what they wear and this includes
my modest brides who need to feel confident and immediately in love with their
modest gowns. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">TFL: Thank
you, Teri, for your time and I was so glad I had the chance to meet you in your
heavenly queendom! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">If you get
the chance to visit Teri’s Celestina Bridal Boutique <a href="http://celestinabridal.com/">website</a>, you will remain
astonished by its delicate and elegant features and I hope you will enjoy
Teri’s blog and activities as much as I did. If you live in the Sacramento
area, stop by and check in with her. I recommend her and her boutique to any
bride that want to feel in heaven starting from the very beginning of the
wedding planning process. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

Celestina in italiano ricorda la parola “celestiale” e dato che il mio più
grande desiderio è quello che le mie spose si sentano in Paradiso quando sono
qui a cercare il loro abito perfetto, ho ritenuto che quel nome fosse
semplicemente perfetto. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
TFL: Prima di aprire Celestina Bridal Boutique ti sei
occupata di Risorse Umane in diversi ambienti lavorativi. Credo quindi che
questa tua nuova attività sia un grosso cambiamento nella tua vita, giusto?
Spiegaci perché hai deciso di aprire la tua Boutique di abiti da sposa. Come ha
cambiato la tua vita? <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Teri: Beh, di sicuro è qualcosa di diverso rispetto a quello
che facevo, prima di tutto perché è la primissima volta che mi cimento in
qualcosa di mio e devo gestire tutti gli aspetti di questo settore e della
nuova attività. Ma ho sempre avuto una grande passione per la moda e considero
il settore sposa come facente parte integrante di questa. Di certo ha cambiato
la mia vita, perché lavorare in proprio è molto impegnativo e non sempre
facile, soprattutto all’inizio. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
TFL: nella tua Boutique le spose possono trovare molti abiti
dei brand Demetrios e Cosmo Bella. Abbracci l’affermazione di Demetrios: “Mi
piace che le cose siano leggere e delicate”? Pensi che questa frase si possa
applicare solo agli abiti da sposa o anche all’eleganza di tutti i giorni?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Teri: Non mi piace la parola “abbracciare”. Non abbraccio
completamente la sua affermazione, piuttosto mi definisco d’accordo. L’abito da
sposa può essere leggero e delicato, ma non la considero un’affermazione che va
bene per tutto. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
TFL: Quando si tratta di scegliere il suo abito, una sposa
cosa dovrebbe fare per scegliere davvero quello giusto per lei? <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Teri: il mio consiglio sarebbe quello di non avere regole,
di andare oltre i propri confini e di non dire mai di no. Dovrebbe liberarsi da
nozioni prestabilite e sentirsi libera di provare quello che davvero le piace.
Voglio che le mie spose si sentano bene nell’abito che indossano e in questo
desiderio ovviamente includo anche le spose che non vogliono abiti troppo
scollati, voglio che s’innamorino subito dei loro abiti. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
TFL: Grazie, Teri, per il tuo tempo ed è stato un piacere
incontrarti nel tuo celestiale reame! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Se avete la possibilità di visitare il sito <a href="http://celestinabridal.com/">internet</a> Celestina Bridal
Boutique di Teri, rimarrete esterrefatti dalle sue linee eleganti e delicate e
spero che darete un’occhiata al blog di Teri e alle attività nelle quali è
coinvolta. E per coloro che vivono nella zona di Sacramento, fermatevi a
salutarla. Raccomando vivamente la sua Boutique a tutte le spose che vogliono
davvero sentirsi in paradiso fin dai primi momenti dell’organizzazione del
matrimonio!<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>The fashionable lounge: Why did you call your blog "Wild beauty"? </b></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: When I think of beauty and makeup, it's not just which products should I buy or how do I use them. Beauty practices and self-presentation are part of every culture - they're part of who we are as people. Looking at beauty this way, the kinds of topics I can cover go far and wide - I knew when I started this that I would be coloring outside the lines.</span><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><b>TFL: What was your vision or what signs did you have which brought you to start your blog? </b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: I</span><span style="background-color: white;"> had thought that this would be a good topic for a TV show. But the way beauty is presented on television is still 'bimbos obsessing about mascara and boyfriends', so I thought I would start the blog and see what the response was.<br /><br /><b>TFL: Do you remember your first post? What was it about and where were you? </b><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: </span><span style="background-color: white;">M</span><span style="background-color: white;">y</span><span style="background-color: white;"> first post was a profile of my friend <a href="http://www.geralddecock.com/about/bio">Gerald DeCock</a>, a hairstylist and fine artist. It took me ages to write it, and I was terrified to post it as well. I went from being self-conscious about posting my writing for other people to being self-conscious about not posting enough!<br /><br /><b>TFL: I have always thought that make-up is an artistic expression of the makeup artist and of his/her mood and character. Is this a description that works for you? Even when you need to interpret someone else's mood or feature (maybe for a photo shoot or an ad campaign)?</b><br /><br />Meli: I don't think that makeup is an artistic expression of me at all. It's always an interpretation - of a face, of a creative direction for a shoot, of a personality. I used to struggle with this - and not feel 'creative' enough - but maybe all creativity is interpretation. I may see a face differently than another artist, and see a different path to beauty, but ultimately it's about the face or the photo, not me and my moods.<br /><br /><b>TFL: I was attracted by a part of your blog title: "beauty. culture". Do you think beauty is interconnected and linked with culture? Do they have effects on each other? Does this apply to every moment of social history or has it changed in time?</b><br /><br />Meli: Beauty is intimately linked with culture - everywhere and at all times. What is considered beautiful has to do with history, economics, technology, trade, geography, and even religion. We humans were wearing makeup and beads before we were using metal tools. It is superficial, in that it's an outer layer and decorative, but what is beautiful in a culture speaks volumes about that culture.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>TFL: What does inspire you when you write a post on your blog? Are you happy when you write?</b><br /><br />Meli: Funny </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">y</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">o</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">u should ask me that - I'm in the middle of a serious writing block/ resistance. I have always been happy when I have written, but I am not a 'happy writer'. It's not very social, as work goes.</span><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><b>TFL: How m</b></span><span style="background-color: white;"><b>uch do you love your job, and what does make you happy when you work on a makeup session? What motivates you?</b><br /><br />Meli: I'm happy when I find that next level of beauty in a face. People think that makeup is about covering up, but I find that makeup can reveal a face's otherwise unnoticed beauty..<br /><br /><b>TFL: In your </b></span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>blog you mix videos and written parts, but I can see you give more space to written posts and pictures. Why?</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: Part of i</span><span style="background-color: white;">t</span><span style="background-color: white;"> is that it's just me, and writing and finding pictures is easier than shooting and editing video. Part of it is the blog architecture - I feel that writing reviews and quick posts don't really fit with the longer pieces. I'm working with a developer on a redesign - it will be interesting to see how that affects the kinds of posts I do....<br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><b>TFL: I love your “<a href="http://wildbeautyworld.com/category/book-reviews/">Book Reviews</a>” category on your blog, and I know you read. Do you often read books? What books do you like reading?</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: I read ver</span><span style="background-color: white;">y</span><span style="background-color: white;"> widely - lots of nonfiction, on topics from beauty to art to psychology to business to whatever catches my fancy. New York has the best library system in the world, so I'm lucky. I also buy books like some bloggers buy shoes - in my gazillionaire dreams I have a fantastic library of my own. So yeah, I'm one of the 'book people'. On the site, I'm hoping to expand the book reviews into a mini book store for beauty and fashion. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><b>TFL: A beauty trick for my readers? </b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: One great f</span><span style="background-color: white;">oundation/concealer trick for women who like to look natural is to not cover every flaw. Using foundation or concealer to just cover the few things that are standing out (like redness around the nose, or that pimple that showed up overnight) and leaving the rest if the face natural looks to most people like you're not wearing much of anything, and just have great skin.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>TFL: Thank you for your great contribution to my blogpost and thanks for sharing your thoughts with me and all my readers! </b></span><br />

Signore e Signori, è con immenso onore che pubblico la mia intervista a Meli Pennington.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>The fashionable lounge: Perché hai deciso di chiamare il tuo blog "Wild beauty"(bellezza selvaggia)? </b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: Quando penso alla bellezza e al makeup, non mi chiedo semplicemente quali prodotti dovrei acquistare e come dovrei utilizzarli. Le pratiche di bellezza e di presentazione di noi stessi sono parte integrante di ogni cultura, sono una componente di ciò che siamo come popolo, come persone. Guardando alla bellezza in questi termini, le tipologie di argomenti da trattare diventano innumerevoli, e nello stesso momento in cui mi sono resa conto di ciò, ho avuto la certezza che avrei colorato fuori dai margini. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><b>TFL: Qual è stata la tua "visione" o i segni che ti hanno fatto pubblicare il tuo blog?</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: Pensavo sarebbe potuto essere un tema interessante per uno show televisivo, ma il modo in cui la bellezza viene mostrata in televisione è, purtroppo, ancora "oche giulive ossessionate dal mascara e dai fidanzati", perciò ho voluto dare vita al blog e vedere il tipo di riscontro che avrebbe avuto. </span><span style="background-color: white;"><br /><br /><b>TFL: Ricordi ancora il tuo primo post?</b><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: Il mio primo post fu il profilo del mio amico </span><span style="background-color: white;"><a href="http://www.geralddecock.com/about/bio">Gerald DeCock</a>, hairstylist e grande artista. Ci misi una vita a scriverlo, e la pubblicazione fu altrettanto difficile. Ero terrorizzata! Mi sentivo imbarazzata quando pubblicavo qualcosa che avevo scritto io per gli altri per poi, col tempo, sentirmi a disagio per non pubblicare abbastanza!<br /><br /><b>TFL: Ho sempre considerato il makeup come un'espressione artistica del makeup artist, che può cambiare in base all'umore e al carattere. Questa descrizione funziona anche per te? Funziona anche quando devi interpretare le caratteristiche o gli umori di altri (per esempio durante uno shooting fotografico o una campagna pubblicitaria)? </b><br /><br />Meli: Non penso che il makeup sia un'espressione artistica di me. Anzi. Lo considero sempre un'interpretazione di un volto, di una direzione creativa durante uno shoot, di una personalità. Non ho sempre pensato così, a volte mi ritenevo poco "creativa" ma forse ogni creatività è in realtà interpretazione. Posso guardare ad un volto in maniera differente rispetto ad un altro makeup artist, o concepire diversi percorsi di bellezza, ma sono convinta che esca tutto dal volto o dalla foto, e non da me o dai miei umori.<br /><br /><b>TFL: Mi ha colpito molto una parte del titolo del tuo blog: "<a href="http://beauty.culture/">beauty.culture</a>" (bellezza.cultura). Ritieni che la bellezza sia interconnessa e legata alla cultura? Ci sono legami/effetti tra le due? Questo legame è sempre presente in ogni momento della storia sociale o si è modificato nel tempo?</b><br /><br />Meli: La bellezza vanta un legame molto intimo con la cultura: ovunque e da sempre. Ciò che viene considerato bello ha a che fare con la storia, l'economia, la tecnologia, il commercio, la geografia e perfino la religione. Noi esseri umani abbiamo indossato il makeup e ninnoli di perle molto prima dell'avvento degli strumenti in metallo. Un aspetto superficiale? Solo perché riguarda lo strato più estremo e decorativo di noi, ma ciò che è bello la dice lunga su ogni cultura. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>TFL: Da cosa trai ispirazione quando scrivi sul tuo blog? Sei felice quando scrivi? </b><br /><br />Meli: strano che tu mi faccia questa domanda: mi trovo proprio nel mezzo di un vero e proprio blocco dello scrittore. Sono sempre stata felice quando scrivevo, ma non mi ritengo una "scrittrice felice". Non è un'attività molto sociale. </span><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><b>TFL: Ami il tuo lavoro? Cosa ti rende felice quando lavori ad una seduta di makeup? Cosa ti motiva? </b></span><span style="background-color: white;"><br /><br />Meli: Mi sento felice quando trovo in un volto il "livello successivo". Le persone pensano che il trucco serva per coprire, in realtà credo che il makeup sia il giusto mezzo per rivelare una parte di bellezza in un viso che altrimenti passerebbe inosservato... <br /><br /><b>TFL: Nel tuo blog convive un mix di video e di parti scritte ma queste ultime, assieme a fotografie, rivestono il ruolo più importante. Come mai? </b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: Uno dei motivi sono semplicemente io: scrivere e trovare immagini è più semplice di girare ed editare un filmato. Un altro motivo è la struttura del blog: penso che scrivere recensioni e post brevi non vada d'accordo con gli articoli più lunghi. Sono al lavoro con uno sviluppatore al momento per portare avanti un restyling, sarà interessante osservare come il cambiamento modificherà anche il tipo di post che pubblico...</span><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><b>TFL: Amo la categoria “Book Reviews” (recensione di libri) nel tuo blog, e grazie a quella sezione so che leggi. Leggi molto spesso libri? Che tipologia di libri ti appassionano? </b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: Sì, sono un'appassionata lettrice: vado dalla saggistica a pubblicazioni sul beauty, dall'arte alla psicologia, dal business a tutto ciò che attira la mia attenzione.</span><span style="background-color: white;"> New York vanta il migliore sistema di biblioteche al mondo, perciò mi ritengo molto fortunata. Inoltre, acquisto libri tanto quanto alcune blogger acquistano scarpe, pensa che nei miei fanta-sogni possiedo una fantastica biblioteca tutta mia! Quindi sì, sono proprio una di quelle persone che soffrono di dipendenza da libro. A proposito del sito, vorrei tanto espandere la sezione "book reviews" per farla diventare un piccolo book store di bellezza e moda. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><b>TFL: E per finire: hai un consiglio di bellezza per i miei lettori? </b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="background-color: white;">Meli: Un trucco grandioso riguardo al fondotinta/correttore per le donne che vogliono un risultato naturale è quello di non coprire tutte le imperfezioni. Utilizzando un fondotinta o un correttore semplicemente per coprire quelle imperfezioni più evidenti (per esempio il rossore attorno al naso, o un piccolo brufolo spuntato durante la notte) e lasciare il resto del volto al naturale, farà apparire l'incarnato come se non fosse coperto proprio da nulla, per una pelle grandiosa. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>TFL: Grazie infinite per il tuo contributo al mio blog e grazie per aver condiviso i tuoi pensieri con me e con i miei lettori!</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Se volete saperne di più su <a href="https://www.facebook.com/wildbeautynyc">Meli</a>, date un'occhiata al suo blog <a href="http://wildbeautyworld.com/">WildBeauty</a>!!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">E se vi va di lasciare commenti o farle delle domande, sentitevi liberi di scriverle qui sotto nello spavin commenti! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Spero tanto che questo post vi sia piaciuto, e spero che anche il prossimo (dalla California) sarà così interessante! </span><br />

equivoco, ci si ritrova in luoghi che paiono paralleli, completamente slegati

Un bacio di chebellorivedersiancoradopotanto con una persona
cara, che guarda caso è la curatrice di questa mostra che si intravede, quasi a
sbucare dalla luce di un luogo una volta sacro. <o:p></o:p></div>

Tele. O no? <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
Non proprio. Persone
che brindano, com’è ottima abitudine qui in Italia, con un buon calice di vino
prodotto dalle nostre terre. Voci indistinte, tutto nuovo. Proiettarsi di
parole che si diramano seguendo traiettorie impensate. “Valter è uno stilista,
il suo genio crea abiti e accessori incredibili. Questa mostra però porta a
galla un altro aspetto della sua creatività: l’arte che dal riciclo di tessuti
dà vita a opere su tela.” <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
Ah! Guarda un po’!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
Franca Benvenuti che, assieme a Orsola Chiaradia, è la
curatrice della mostra “L’altra tela” (tenutasi a Pordenone, Friuli Venezia Giulia, presso l'ex Convento di San Francesco), mi introduce a una delle prime creazioni,
che portano nomi così strani. Pensa…. Questa è fatta di denim! </div>

Ma la
caratteristica che mi colpisce maggiormente è la tattilità visiva dei quadri di
Valter. Ti viene proprio voglia di toccarli i tessuti che usa, proprio come si
farebbe nel valutare un abito.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
Faccio un giro in solitaria… E lascio che il pensiero sia
libero di fuggire dal giorno che volge al termine. E quanto facilmente scorre
via… e si ferma su ognuna di queste opere che liberano il mio cuore. Questo non
è semplicemente arte. Questa è pura, folle passione. Vera libertà d’animo. <o:p></o:p></div>

Non conosco ancora Valter Trevisiol. Me lo presentano. Un
tipo alto, calice alla mano. Capelli foltissimi e barba bianchi. Spirito
fanciullo, non c’è che dire. Confusione allo stato brado tra le sue parole ma
lucidità che fa paura, che disarma. Pare che ti legga l’animo. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
Man mano che visiono quello che nasce dalla sua testa, m’innamoro.

Posso scattare qualche foto? Ma certo! Ci mancherebbe! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
Attraverso la lente della reflex riesco a vedere cose che non
si vedono a occhio nudo: i particolari. Non si possono osservare queste tele
nell’insieme, si perdono troppo i dettagli dell’anima di Valter. Un connubio,
no… Un miscuglio, no… Una commistione! Una commistione di emozioni! Stoffe,
pezzetti di tela… ma eccoli lì, gli elementi naturali: spighe di grano, tronchi
di legno, frammenti di qualcosa che sembra peluria di una palma.</div>

E ancora, virgole
di metallo, lamiere non zincate e mezzo arrugginite, colore, pittura, garze, e
ancora colore. Dov’è il colore? In ogni fibra, in ogni poro di tessuto, in ogni
chicco di spiga, in ogni spira di metallo. Il mio preferito? Cherokee, legno e
iuta, 130x130… un quadrato di pura pazzia naturale: e questa spiga al centro,
incastonata tra fuscelli di legno. Una spiga in bianco. Un’armatura orizzontale
di legno. Un lenzuolo nuziale in nero. Una meraviglia così reale che mi incute
timore. O spleen? <o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="line-height: 150%;">Ed ecco che, ancora una volta dal nulla, vengo invitata a fare
visita all’atelier, il laboratorio di Valter. Un caldo pomeriggio di Ottobre.
Ancora i luoghi più impensati, nascosti alla vista delle persone che
quotidianamente passano per la strada, diventano fornace d’arte, fucina d’idee
e di creatività. Mi siedo, la moglie di Valter, folle artista nell’animo anche
lei, fa materializzare un caffè. Chiacchieriamo. Parliamo della mostra, parliamo dell’Italia
che, </span><span style="line-height: 24px;">ahimè</span><span style="line-height: 150%;">, rotola giù…</span></div>

“Sai, Martina, in effetti, nel nostro paese (siamo, tra
l’altro, compaesani) quello che oramai conta è l’individualismo. E cosa siamo
noi nell’individualismo?”. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
- Ma cosa c’è, in te, per creare tele così belle e ora che
sono qui, capi così magicamente estrosi da essere disarmanti? <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
“La migliore ispirazione nella mia arte è la serenità e la
capacità di essere solo me stesso. C’è gioia in me, c’è gioia in ogni cosa che
faccio. E poi io ci tengo molto alla mia ignoranza, perché ormai qui sono tutti
intelligenti. E l’ignoranza sa darti molto. La mia fortuna è che conosco alla
perfezione il mio unico pregio: io so quello che mi piace. E faccio quello che
mi piace. Nel mondo oggigiorno sono tutti molto bravi a distruggere, ma la cosa
che è davvero difficile è creare”. <o:p></o:p></div>

Valter non dorme molto, una media di 4 ore al giorno. Sogna
ma non ricorda di sognare. Ricorda solo che il sogno è quasi reale. Crea da
solo. “Solo quando sono in solitaria, sai la sera, qui nel laboratorio, o la
domenica, quando piove. Quando sono da solo riesco a raggiungere il massimo della
ricettività artistica e della mia creatività. Uso le mani e aguzzo l’ingegno”. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
Un animo davvero fanciullesco, lo ripeto. Un uomo che non
teme di sorridere, non teme di abbracciarti, anche se ti conosce appena. Non ha
paura di essere, come dice lui, l’ignorante se stesso. E pare che funzioni,
anche se lui, ignorante proprio non è. Le sue tele sono ora sparse in ogni
angolo, alcune non sono state esposte alla mostra, peccato. Le opere si mescolano
agli scampoli di tessuto, alle <i>mannequin</i>
vestite di quell’arte che è così differente. La mia spiga di Cherokee si
mescola con gli abiti appesi alle grucce. Tutto è così sereno. Così gioioso,
proprio come il sorriso di Valter. E chissà che nella prossima mostra ci sia
esposto questo mescolarsi di moda e arte, perché la vera moda è arte. Grazie,
Valter, per essere così felice. <o:p></o:p></div>

that catches my attention is the visual tactility of Valter’s paintings. You
really want to touch the fabrics he uses, like when you are choosing a piece of
apparel. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span lang="EN-US">I start moving
around, alone. I let my thought to be free to escape from the day that is
ending. And how easy it flows… it stops at every canvas that free my heart.
This is not just art. This is pure and crazy passion. Real freedom of the soul.

wine in his hand. Thick white hair and beard. Child spirit, oh yes! I see wild
chaos among his words, but a clear mind that frightens, disarms. It seems as if
he can read your soul. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

reflex lens I see things that I could not see with my naked eye: details. You
cannot observe these canvas all together, you would lose the details of
Valter’s soul. A union, no… A mix, no… A blend! A blend of emotions! Cloths,
pieces of fabric… and there they are, the elements from Nature: ears of wheat,
wood trunks, fragments of something that resemble palm fibers. </span></div>

Have you ever had a best friend?<br />
A real Bfriend, I mean.<br />
<br />
And do you think know her/him?<br />
<br />
<br />
Last week I finished reading a book of a passionate Irish writer (and friend of mine, I'm honored to tell).<br />
She gave me the book back in 2008 and it has never called me until last month.<br />
(yes, it's the book that calls me when it wants me to read it).<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The book is "At a time like this" and the author is <a href="http://catherinedunneauthor.com/books.html">Catherine Dunne</a>.<br />

<br />
<br />
It is a novel about friendship and here we have four women, who have been meeting for 25 years every single year to celebrate their friendship.<br />
They are Georgie, Maggie, Claire and Nora and they all hide secrets that they do not want to share with each other (or better, they do want, but they never find the best moment to do it, until...).<br />
<br />
A story of four girls who meet in Trinity College in Ireland, coming from different backgrounds, different lives and who want to start a new moment in their existence at a time like that.<br />
A novel about friendship but also about passions and about women who look for themselves and for a redemption of something that is inside of them all.<br />
A novel with an end that will amaze you and will help you considering that life has not a plot and can change in ways that you would never imagine.<br />
<br />
Catherine is a super-skilled writer, she teaches creative writing both in Ireland and in Italy (I will attend a workshop of hers in Verona next month) and her pen is amazingly fluid, rich and natural.<br />
<br />
Catherine has always been interested in the world of women, depicting in her novels (she's writing number 10!!!!) various situations and characters.<br />
<br />
It is a great reading and I suggest you all to buy it (there is also the Kindle version).<br />
<br />
You can follow Catherine on her <a href="http://www.facebook.com/Author.CatherineDunne?fref=ts">facebook page </a>and on <a href="https://twitter.com/DunneCatherine">twitter</a>.<br />

Avete mai avuto un migliore amico/a?<br />
Una vera amicizia, intendo.<br />
<br />
E pensate di conoscere davvero il vostro amico/la vostra amica?<br />
<br />
La scorsa settimana ho finito di leggere un romanzo di una scrittrice irlandese appassionante (e ho anche l'onore di dire, che conosco personalmente!).<br />
Mi ha regalato il libro nel 2008, quando l'ho incontrata per la prima volta ma il libro in questione non mi ha mai "chiamata" fino allo scorso mese (sì, è il libro che mi chiama perché vuole essere letto...).<br />
<br />
Il romanzo è "Se stasera siamo qui" e l'autrice è <a href="http://catherinedunneauthor.com/books.html">Catherine Dunne</a> (traduttore: Mazzarelli P.)<br />
<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
Si tratta di un romanzo sull'amicizia: abbiamo quattro donne, che si ritrovano per 25 anni ogni singolo anno in onore della loro amicizia.<br />
Sono Georgie, Maggie, Claire e Nora e ognuna nasconde un segreto che non vuole condividere con le altre (o meglio, vogliono farlo ma non trovano mai il momento migliore per farlo... fino a che...).<br />
<br />
Una storia di quattro ragazze che si incontrano al Trinity College in Iralanda. Quattro ragazze che provengono da differenti backgroud, con diverse storie e vite e che vogliono tutte dare vita ad una nuova fase della loro vita, proprio adesso.<br />
<br />
Un romanzo sull'amicizia, ma anche sulle passioni di donne che cercano se stesse e vogliono una redenzione da qualcosa che è dentro di loro.<br />
Un romanzo con un finale affascinante e sorprendente, che vi aiuterà a capire come abbattere i pregiudizi e a farvi capire come la vita non abbia una trama e come tutto possa cambiare in maniera del tutto inaspettata.<br />
<br />
Catherine è una scrittrice super dotata, tiene lezioni di scrittura creativa in Irlanda e in Italia (a febbraio parteciperò ad un suo laboratorio a Verona) e la sua penna è estremamente fluida, ricca e naturale.<br />
<br />
Da sempre Catherine mostra interesse verso il mondo femminile, dipingendo nei suoi romanzi varie situazioni e personaggi.<br />
<br />
Una lettura che consiglio a tutti!!! (disponibile anche su Kindle).<br />

What is womanhood to you? (and I am not asking just women, but also men, out there).<br />
<br />
Describe what comes to your mind when you hear this word: <i>womanhood</i>.<br />
Try to create a brainstorming of your ideas and read on.<br />
<br />
Last August (yeah, I am a shizo, I do write the date I start reading a book and the date I finish reading it, just to remember) I read a very interesting book written by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernanda_Pivano">Fernanda Pivano</a> "<i>Libero chi legge</i>", where she lists (and describes) 100 books that impressed her. On page 132, among the books about the sexual freedom and identity, I found <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erica_Jong">Erica Jong</a> (<a href="https://twitter.com/search/users?q=erica%20jong">Twitter</a>, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/OfficialEricaJong?fref=ts">Facebook</a>) with her <a href="http://www.ericajong.com/flying.htm"><i>Fear of Flying</i></a>.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8Y6a3mtCEz7EtR3uNzHRNhtj5WXNdSugVfJUmDrpmZvEH1Xm4_XbtTqYTPRArGFpM5StbMbCN_DSVUlw8ay7JtMKZmdN56qXJHqH6nWJowefno1NF08X7BxeAJpvC7z-rEBIHbWuMwxb9/s1600/erica+jong.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8Y6a3mtCEz7EtR3uNzHRNhtj5WXNdSugVfJUmDrpmZvEH1Xm4_XbtTqYTPRArGFpM5StbMbCN_DSVUlw8ay7JtMKZmdN56qXJHqH6nWJowefno1NF08X7BxeAJpvC7z-rEBIHbWuMwxb9/s320/erica+jong.jpg" width="213" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
I decided, as always driven by an interior force, to buy the book thanks to Fernanda's words, which are Erica's own words taken from an interview with Playboy: "With <i>Fear of Flying</i> I wanted to write a satirical novel about a woman who is looking for her own identity".<br />
<br />
First published in 1973, it was not an instant bestseller, but with time it reached the stars.<br />
Erica Jong had had this book ready for a long time, but it was her publisher's words: "why don't you go home and write a novel in the female voice of your poems?" that moved her and enabled her to have the courage of writing what had always been inside of her.<br />
<br />
Isadora is the name of the main character of the novel and she is a young woman who, throughout the whole novel, is looking for herself and struggling away from stereotypes and rules imposed by her own mother and the society itself. She got married twice and she was unlucky both times. But what does unlucky means? Does that mean that your marriage is a failure? Does that mean that you do not have kids? Or has it a broader meaning? Maybe it is a signal that your life is not supposed to be that way.<br />
Isadora likes the zipless fuck, she carves for a zipless fuck, she has a dream one in her mind. Zipless means that it is like a dream and is seemingly free of all remorse and guilt, there is no rationalizing.<br />
She looks for it and never gets one and therefore she continues her search.<br />
Inside of her there is great confusion and heavy questions. I will, as always, not tell you more about the plot.<br />
The novel is not about sex. It is a more profound look for the rule of the woman, for her real womanhood and identity. This is why I asked you what you think womanhood is.<br />
After 40 years from the first publishing, the book is perfectly (and sadly, let me add) up to date. I say sadly because in 2013 we still are in the same starting point as if we remained frozen in 1973.<br />
The novel is about the right of sexual freedom and identity of women. It is about the attitude we should have towards our own life. The question we should all answer ourself is: what do you want to do with your life? And stick to the answer, pursue your goal with strength and passion.<br />
Passion is another keyword. Passion, intended as the truest aspect of our own existence.<br />
<br />
In 2013 our modern society tells us that there is a real equal opportunity situation and that women are too feminist. What does it expect us to do? To stay silent and to do what others tell us?<br />
<i>Fear of Flying</i> should be read in schools, should be considered a conceptual bible for all women.<br />
Women around the world are denied basic education, basic human rights and basic social consideration (some of us do not have the right to vote). We do not have, around the world, the right to think and to speak out loud. If we do, they torture us, they beat us, they kill us.<br />
<br />
Erica Jong, in her <i>Fear of Flying</i>, touches pivotal points for all of us to consider. The relation among women, between woman and man.<br />
"I wanted total mutuality, companionship, equality".<br />
"Life has no plot".<br />
"If we haven't the power to complete ourselves, the search for love becomes a search for self-annihilation".<br />
"I meant that I was determined to take my fate in my own hands".<br />
"I looked down at my body. A nice body. Mine. I decided to keep it. I hugged myself".<br />
<br />
So guys, please, read the book, read it without prejudice. Find out what can be womanhood for you, and let's build a different awareness for all women.<br />

Cos'è per voi l'essere donna? (e lo chiedo a tutti, non solo alle donne).<br />
<br />
Descrivete quello che vi viene in mente quando sentite "essere donna".<br />
Cercate di fare un brainstorming, e poi continuate a leggere.<br />
<br />
Lo scorso Agosto (sì, ok... sono una schizzata che scrive la data di inizio e la data di fine lettura sui libri.. giusto per ricordo) ho letto un libro molto interessante di <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernanda_Pivano">Fernanda Pivano</a> "<i>Libero chi legge</i>", dove la traduttrice faceva una lista (completa di descrizione) dei 100 libri della sua biblioteca ideale. A pagina 132 mi sono imbattuta, tra i titoli sulla libertà sessuale, in <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erica_Jong">Erica Jong</a> (<a href="https://twitter.com/search/users?q=erica%20jong">Twitter</a>, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/OfficialEricaJong?fref=ts">Facebook</a>) e il suo <i>Paura di Volare</i>.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Ho quindi deciso, come sempre spinta da una forza interiore, di comprare il libro (in inglese) grazie alle parole di Fernanda, che poi sono le parole della stessa Erica tratte da un'intervista su Playboy: "con Paura di Volare ho voluto scrivere un romanzo satirico su una donna che è alla ricerca della sua identità".<br />
<br />
Pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1973, non ha riscosso un successo immediato ma con il tempo ha raggiunto livelli impensabili.<br />
Erica Jong aveva in serbo questo libro da molti anni ma sono state le parole del suo editore "perché non vai a casa e scrivi un romanzo con la voce femminile che c'è nelle tue poesie?" a darle coraggio e a scrivere quello che è sempre stato in lei.<br />
<br />
Isadora è il nome del personaggio principale del romanzo, una giovane donna che, attraverso tutto il racconto, è alla ricerca di se stessa e lotta contro gli stereotipi e le leggi imposte dalla sua stessa madre, dalla società. Si è sposata due volte ed è stata sfortunata entrambe le volte. Ma cosa significa essere sfortunati? Significa che il tuo matrimonio è un fallimento? Significa che non hai figli? O c'è un significato più ampio da ricercare? Forse è un segnale che la tua vita non dovrebbe andare in quel verso.<br />
Isadora adora "l'incontro sessuale senza cerniere lampo", lo cerca, ne ha bisogno, lo sogna. Senza cerniere lampo significa che quell'incontro è come un sogno, senza rimorsi o sensi di colpa, non c'è razionalizzazione.<br />
Lo cerca ma non lo trova (forse) e perciò la sua ricerca continua.<br />
Dentro di lei c'è confusione e si ammassano domande difficili. Come sempre non vi dirò più una parola sulla trama.<br />
<br />
Il romanzo non verte sul sesso, è più uno sguardo profondo verso il ruolo della donna e il suo essere donna. Ed ecco perché all'inizio vi ho chiesto cosa vi veniva in mente al sentire "essere donna". Dopo 40 anni dalla data della prima pubblicazione, che ha creato scandali e dibattiti accesi, il libro è estremamente (e mio malgrado, tristemente) attuale. Dico tristemente perché nel 2013 ci troviamo nello stesso punto, come se fossimo rimasti congelati al 1973.<br />
<br />
Il romanzo tratta del diritto alla libertà sessuale e all'identità della donna e alla sua indipendenza; parla dell'atteggiamento che dovremmo avere nei confronti della nostra vita. La domanda che dovremmo tutti farci è: cosa vuoi dalla tua vita? E una volta avuta la risposta (sincera!) dovremmo rimanerle fedele e lottare per raggiungere il nostro obiettivo con forza e passione.<br />
La passione è un'altra parola chiave. Passione, intesa come il più vero aspetto della nostra esistenza.<br />
<br />
Nel 2013 la nostra società moderna ci insegna che siamo tutti uguali, che esistono le pari opportunità e che le donne spesso sono troppo femministe. E cosa si aspetta da noi? Di rimanere in silenzio e fare ciò che ci viene detto dagli altri?<br />
<i>Paura di Volare</i> dovrebbe essere portato nelle scuole ed essere considerato una bibbia concettuale per tutte le donne.<br />
Le donne nel mondo vengono private del diritto allo studio, all'istruzione, dei diritti umani basilari e della considerazione sociale di base (alcune di noi non hanno nemmeno il diritto di voto). Non abbiamo, nel mondo, il diritto di pensare e di parlare ad alta voce. E se lo facciamo, ci torturano, ci picchiano, ci uccidono.<br />
<br />
Erica Jong, nel suo <i>Paura di Volare</i>, tocca dei punti cardine che dobbiamo considerare. La relazione tra donne e tra donna e uomo.<br />
"Volevo mutualità totale, amicizia, uguaglianza".<br />
"La vita non ha trama".<br />
"Se non abbiamo la forza di completarci da soli, la ricerca dell'amore diventa ricerca di autodistruzione".<br />
"Ero determinata a prendere in mano il mio destino".<br />
"Guardai verso il mio corpo. Un corpo carino. Il mio. E decisi che l'avrei tenuto. Mi abbracciai".<br />
<br />
Quindi, ragazzi e ragazze, leggete il libro, senza pregiudizi. Scoprite cos'è per voi l'essere donna.<br />

Dear readers,<br />
<br />
how are you?<br />
<br />
Here I am, today I want to write about a book I read some months ago.<br />
Since I am a real fashion addicted, I tend to observe and look for books and magazines about fashion.<br />
I found a book that wisely mixes interesting notions about the woman who is a fashion icon all around the world and pictures of some of her most amazing outfits. The pictures of the ninety outfits are photographed by Eric Boman.<br />
<br />
The woman I am talking about is Iris Apfel. The style icon was born in 1921 in New York (Queens), and is always been a free spirit and a determined person.<br />
She worked, among the thousands of work experiences she went through, for WWD and as an interior designer. She has always been an iconic example for fashionistas and designers, but also for those who are in love with stylish personalities and what she believes in. (You can read more about Iris on Vogue: <a href="http://www.vogue.it/encyclo/personaggi/a/iris-apfel">Vogue.it</a>, on Wikipedia <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iris_Apfel">Iris Apfel</a>, on her facebook page <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Iris-Apfel/30792291021">Iris Apfel</a>).<br />
<br />
The book I am telling you about it "Rare bird of fashion. The irreverent Iris Apfel" by Eric Boman with an introduction by Harold Koda (you can buy it here: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Rare-Bird-Fashion-Irreverent-Apfel/dp/0500513449">Amazon.com</a>). It is written in English and it is a real pity it is not translated into other languages.<br />
Some of my favorite passages of the book, taken from her autobiographical text, are: "I soon realized that money alone could not buy good taste and that what you spent did not necessarily determine the success of an outfit"and "when I'm really after something, I am like a dog with a bone".<br />
Alongside with her preface, you will discover her outfits. You will be taken aback by their distinctive strength. Iris says she embellishes her every single day and she puts on what makes her feel like herself. Marvelous!<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
This book is extremely important to me, while I was reading the words by Iris, while I was studying every single shot by Eric Boman, I felt a passion vibrating all over me. It was the vibration of life, of what I read in her lines: "I had nothing to lose" "my incurable curiosity" "I had the chance to work my way up"... She magnificently expresses her thought, her motto and her way of pursuing her own passion and desires. She obtained all she wanted working hard, processing her ideas and taking chances.<br />
I wanted to tell you about this book because it is an example of how you can follow your dreams, how you can reach your desires and your goals, with great efforts. It is not only a matter of fashion, it is a matter of what you want to do with your life. Of how much you want to struggle to achieve what you've always wanted.<br />
<br />
Keep on struggling, guys.<br />

Carissimi lettori,<br />
<br />
come state?<br />
<br />
Eccomi di nuovo qui, a scrivervi di un libro che ho letto qualche mese fa.<br />
Da inguaribile fashion addicted tendo a osservare e cercare libri e riviste di moda.<br />
Ho trovato questo libro che unisce saggiamente interessanti nozioni sulla donna che è divenuta una fashion icon in tutto il mondo e immagini di alcuni dei suoi outfit. Le fotografie dei 90 outfit sono state scattate da Eric Boman.<br />
<br />
La donna della quale sto parlando è Iris Apfel. L'icona di stile è nata a New York, nel Queens, nel 1921 ed è sempre stat uno spirito libero e una donna determinata.<br />
Ha lavorato, tra le altre mille esperienze lavorative, per la rivista WWD e come interior designer. Da sempre riveste un ruolo fondamentale, quello di un'icona esemplare per fashionisti e per stilisti, ma anche per colore che amano le personalità piene di stile e il messaggio che Iris porta avanti. (Potete trovare ulteriori informazioni su Iris qui: <a href="http://www.vogue.it/encyclo/personaggi/a/iris-apfel">Vogue.it</a>, Wikipedia <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iris_Apfel">Iris Apfel</a>, e potete cliccare mi piace sulla sua pagina Facebook <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Iris-Apfel/30792291021">Iris Apfel</a>).<br />
<br />
Il libro del quale vi parlo è "Rare bird of fashion. The irreverent Iris Apfel" di Eric Boman, introduzione di Harold Koda (lo potete acquistare qui: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Rare-Bird-Fashion-Irreverent-Apfel/dp/0500513449">Amazon.com</a>).<br />
<br />
Alcune delle frasi che preferisco presenti nel libro, prese dalla sua parte autobiografica, sono: "Ho capito molto presto che il mero denaro non poteva comprare il buon gusto e che quanto si spende non determina necessariamente il successo di un outfit" e "quando cerco davvero qualcosa sono come un cane con l'osso". Assieme alla sua prefazione troverete anche i suoi abiti. Rimarrete stupiti dai tratti distintivi della forza che portano con loro. Iris afferma che abbellisce il suo aspetto ogni giorno, e che indossa sempre quello che la fa sentire davvero se stessa. Meraviglioso!<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Questo libro è molto importante per me, mentre leggevo le parole di Iris, mentre studiavo ogni singolo scatto di Eric Boman, sentivo la passione che vibrava dentro di me. E' la vibrazione della vita, di quello che leggevo nelle sue frasi: "non avevo nulla da perdere", "la mia inguaribile curiosità", "avevo finalmente l'occasione di lavorare per raggiungere il mio traguardo". Iris trasmette magnificamente il suo pensiero, il suo motto e il suo modo di raggiungere le sue passioni e i suoi desideri. Ha ottenuto tutto ciò lavorando duramente, sviluppando le sue idee e prendendosi le opportunità.<br />
<br />
Infine, volevo parlarvi di questo libro perché ritengo sia un esempio di come ognuno possa seguire i propri sogni, non senza sforzi e fatiche, di come ognuno possa raggiungere davvero i propri obiettivi. Non è semplicemente un libro di moda, una questione di moda, ma è una questione di quello che vogliamo fare con la nostra vita. Di quanto vogliamo lottare per ottenere quello che abbiamo sempre voluto.<br />
<br />
Continuate a combattere.<br />

Dear readers,<br />
<br />
good morning in this first day of the new year 2013.<br />
<br />
I wanted to thank each and everyone of you, because you started reading this blog of mine, which was born last year 2012.<br />
<br />
Thank you, since if my blog exists is just because of you.<br />
<br />
Last year was full of events for me, both personally and in my work.<br />
I decided to open this blog, with the only aim to write about the books I read and liked.<br />
Later on I understood that what I like is not only reading and writing reviews about the books I read.<br />
I've always been in love with all that was connected to Fashion.<br />
I've read a few books about fashion and I will soon write about some of them. In one of my past posts I have written about one of them: <i><a href="http://thefashionablebooklounge.blogspot.it/2012/02/books-and-sal-y-limon-bangles.html">Coco Chanel</a></i> by Justine Picardie.<br />
<br />
As you know, this blog underwent some adjustments and improvements, which are still going on.<br />
For instance, I have changed its purpose: this will not only be a blog where I write reviews of the books I like, but also a kind of special site for my business side.<br />
As you already know, I am a professional freelance translator and interpreter and I am trying to give an impulse to my job. Therefore it is and will be a window on my entire world.<br />
<br />
In 2012 I also decided to specialize in the translation in the field of Fashion (fashion, make-up, luxury...). I will work hard and struggle to succeed.<br />
Should any of you be interested in this kind of things or need a translation, you just need to contact me, in the blog you find the contacts.<br />
<br />
I will try to be constant in posting in the blog, I believe in it and I hope to be able to dedicate more time to it and to you all.<br />
<br />
For the time being it's all, folks.<br />
I wish you all the best for this new year 2013!! Spread the word!<br />

Carissimi lettori,<br />
<br />
buongiorno in questo primissimo giorno del nuovo anno 2013.<br />
<br />
Volevo ringraziare ognuno di voi per aver iniziato a leggere i miei post e seguire il mio blog, che è nato nell'anno appena passato.<br />
<br />
Grazie, perché il mio blog esiste solo grazie a voi lettori.<br />
<br />
Lo scorso anno è stato pieno di eventi per me, sia a livello personale sia a livello lavorativo.<br />
Ho deciso di aprire il blog, con l'unico obiettivo di scrivere dei libri che leggevo e che mi colpivano.<br />
Successivamente ho capito che quello che mi piace non è semplicemente leggere e scrivere i miei pareri.<br />
Un altro aspetto importante di me è l'amore che ho verso tutto ciò che è legato al mondo della Moda.<br />
Ho letto più di qualche libro sul tema e presto scriverò qualche post su alcuni di essi. In uno dei miei precedenti post ho scritto una breve descrizione di <i><a href="http://thefashionablebooklounge.blogspot.it/2012/02/books-and-sal-y-limon-bangles.html">Coco Chanel</a></i> di Justine Picardie.<br />
<br />
Come ben sapete, questo blog ha subito alcuni cambiamenti e miglioramenti, alcuni di questi ancora in atto. Per esempio, ho cambiato gli obiettivi: non sarà più solo un blog sui libri ma sarà anche una specie di sito internet speciale che abbraccia anche la mia parte professionale.<br />
Come già sapete, sono una traduttrice interprete professionista e sto cercando di dare un nuovo impulso al mio lavoro. Perciò questo blog sarà una finestra sul mio mondo.<br />
<br />
Nel 2012 ho anche deciso di specializzarmi in traduzione per la moda (fashion, cosmesi, lusso...) e lavorerò duramente per riuscirci. Se qualcuno di voi fosse interessato a questo genere di cose oppure di una traduzione, non deve fare altro che contattarmi, nel blog trovate i contatti.<br />
<br />
Cercherò inoltre di postare con costanza nel blog, ci credo molto e spero di riuscire a dedicare molto più tempo a lui e a voi tutti.<br />
<br />
Per il momento è tutto, ragazzi.<br />
Vi auguro tutto il bene per questo nuovo anno 2013!! Spargete la voce!!<br />
<br />
<br />

Good morning readers from all over the world!<br />
<br />
What's up today?<br />
<br />
As you know and as you could see, my blog is undergoing some major adjustments that will lead iut to a more complete picture of what I am and what I like, not to mention what I do.<br />
<br />
I have just finished reading a book about an amazing woman. I will soon review it but I won't tell you more, so stay tuned!!<br />
<br />
For the time being I want to share with you an interesting post of Savina, make up artist and blogger, with whom I have started a cooperation for the translation into English of her blog.<br />
Last night's post is about make up brushes and I translated the article from a make up book, that I will soon read and review.<br />

Buongiorno carissimi lettori!!<br />
Come va oggi?<br />
<br />
Come sapete e come avrete sicuramente notato, il mio blog è in via di miglioramento e perfezionamento, che porterà a un quadro più completo di quello che sono e di cioè che mi piace, per non parlare di quello di cui mi occupo.<br />
<br />Ho appena terminato la lettura di un libro su una donna sconvolgente. Farò presto una recensione del libro ma non vi voglio dire altro, quindi rimanete collegati!!!<br />
<br />
Per il momento voglio condividere con voi un interessante post di Savina, make up artist e blogger, con la quale ho appena iniziato una collaborazione per la traduzione del suo blog in inglese. <br />
Il suo post di ieri sera è sui pennelli per il trucco e io ho curato la traduzione dell'articolo tratto da uno dei libri di make up di Savina, che leggerò presto e che recensirò nel mio blog, con alcuni apporti tecnici da parte della make up artist.<br />
<br />
Qui trovate il post, su <a href="http://beautydiario.blogspot.it/2012/11/segreto-per-lacquisto-del-pennello.html?showComment=1352966819667#c1372788072439972874">Il Mio Beauty Diario</a> e l'estratto dal libro "Makeup the

Dear followers, dear readers,<br />
<br />
how are you?<br />
<br />
I really hope everything is ok with you.<br />
<br />
I have been away for a while but I am back and I will tell you my adventures.<br />
<br />
What I wanted to tell you tonight is that I changed some aspects of my blog, firstly to make it more stylish, but also to let it be more similar to what I am.<br />
Indeed, I am not only a reader, but I am also a professional translator and interpreter.<br />

<br />
<br />
This is high time to let this blog work as I work. Both aspects of me will be maintained here, but something will be added.<br />
<br />
I have interesting cooperations that are going to start and I will talk about them in my future posts.<br />
<br />
So, for the time being I am done, I am extremely tired since I am still suffering from my NYC jet leg... I've been working hard lately.<br />
<br />
In my next post I will write more about all this.<br />
<br />
As you can see, I added some new buttons on the right bar of the blog: there is also a direct connection to my skype account, should you need to contact me for professional translations.<br />
<br />
thank you and stay tuned!!<br />

Per prima cosa voglio dirvi che ho modificato alcune parti del blog, in primo luogo per renderlo più stizzoso, ma anche per avvicinarlo a quello che sono io in realtà-<br />
Quindi, non sono solo un'accanita lettrice, ma anche una traduttrice e interprete professionista.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Era davvero ora che il mio blog fosse lo specchio di ciò che sono e di quello che faccio per lavoro. Entrambi gli aspetti saranno mantenuti qui, ma aggiungerò qualcosa.<br />
<br />

<br />
Stanno per cominciare interessanti cooperazioni delle quali vi parlerò presto.<br />
<br />
Per ora è tutto, vi lascio perchè ho ancora il jet leg di NYC addosso...<br />
Sto lavorando parecchio ultimamente.<br />
<br />
Nei miei prossimi post vi parlerò di molte cose.<br />
<br />
Rimanete connessi e a presto!!!<br />

Dear followers,<br />
<br />
how are you?<br />
<br />
I am sorry for my delay in writing a post, but I am willing to keep up the pace.<br />
<br />
I just wanted to share with you my joy and excitement for this latest news.<br />
As you know, today is the day Steve Jobs died one year ago.<br />
As a CNN iReporter (<a href="http://ireport.cnn.com/people/MartiLuna?viewingAsOthers=true">Marti Luna</a>) I posted an article answering to an assignment (<a href="http://ireport.cnn.com/topics/850198">What did Steve Jobs teach you?</a>). After a few days I was featured on the CNN.<br />
And tonight I received a message from Nicole Saidi (<a href="http://ireport.cnn.com/people/nsaidi">Nsaidi</a>) of the iReport staff and she told me that I got the top spot on the Storify page!!!! (<a href="http://storify.com/">http://storify.com</a>) (<a href="http://storify.com/cnnireport/what-steve-jobs-taught-me">Storify.com</a>).<br />
I am so excited!<br />
<br />
Share this links :) and thank you for reading!<br />

Cari lettori,<br />
<br />
<br />
come state?<br />
<br />
mi dispiace per la mia prolungata assenza, ma cercherò di darmi da fare..<br />
<br />
Volevo condividere ora con voi la mia gioia ed euforia per le notizie che ho appena ricevuto!!<br />
Come sapete, oggi è l'anniversario della morte di Steve Jobs.<br />
E da buona CNN iReporter (<a href="http://ireport.cnn.com/people/MartiLuna?viewingAsOthers=true">Marti Luna</a>) ho risposto ad un assignment (<a href="http://ireport.cnn.com/topics/850198">What did Steve Jobs teach you?</a>). Dopo alcuni giorni ho saputo che mi avevano segnalato alla CNN per l'articolo e per la foto che avevo scattato.<br />
E stasera ho ricevuto un messaggio da Nicole Saidi (<a href="http://ireport.cnn.com/people/nsaidi">Nsaidi</a>) dello staff iReport dove mi comunicava che ero finita sulla top spot della Storify page!!!! (<a href="http://storify.com/">http://storify.com</a>) (<a href="http://storify.com/cnnireport/what-steve-jobs-taught-me">Storify.com</a>).<br />

<span lang="EN-US">The story
is a portrait of a family consisting of a father, Karl, a mother, Susie and
four brothers: Matt, George, John and Freddie. The book develops in two
intersecting yet separated parts: the present and the past (mostly the 70’s) of
the Patton’s family. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">There is a
perfect balance of present and past, of descriptions and actions. Turpin tells
us the story of a family, yes, but it is a family whose parents are part of the
so-called Jurassic Generation. A real, clear and funny depiction of a
generation of people who were raised in the United States, but that come from
different countries. A generation that had to learn to survive huger, crisis,
hard times and who had to struggle to become someone. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">This is the Jurassic
Generation, a couple who meets young, and who goes through difficulties of all
types before being a family and before building up what is a strict, severe yet
well balance parental couple. When the four kids arrive in the family, the big
T-Rex wants to raise the breed in a way that allows them to be independent,
self-sufficient, educated, well mannered and honest. Such values are transmitted
in the only way the T-Rex is able to do: with fierceness.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"> The only individual
who is able to balance the big dinosaur force is the She-Rex, the mother, Susie,
who is always ready to lend a helping hand, who is always there to fix a
physical or psychological injury. She’s the perfect connection between the two
generations and the T-Rex and his family. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">The two parallel stories meet again
when the T-Rex dies, and the She-Rex is in facing a difficult psychological and
identity situation. The four brothers, who all have different and distant in
space stories and lives, gather after years of distance and start working back
together to fix the Jurassic Generation inside their own, to untangle the knots
of doubts, of angers and misunderstandings. All this is tangled up with important
historical and cultural references. A story of family life, a novel of deep and
true marital love, of parental devotion. A story that will not disappoint you,
every page is a wonderful pearl of words, lined up in the string of
understanding, but most important of all, of the concept of being just what we
are, and love each other for what we can do.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">I do not

great writer, his way of describing facts, characters and images is vivid,
amazingly fast and yet extremely precise.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">A book full

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
E’ un
capolavoro! Molto interessante. Capirete le immagini che ci stanno sopra dopo
aver letto il libro.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
La storia è un ritratto di una famiglia composta da padre
Karl, madre Susie e da quattro fratelli: Matt, George, John e Freddie. Il libro
si sviluppa in due parti che si intersecano: il presente e il passato (principalmente
gli anni 70) della famiglia Patton. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Turpin crea un equilibro perfetto tra presente e passato,
fatto di descrizioni e di azioni. Turpin ci narra la storia di una famiglia, ma
è un nucleo famigliare dove i genitori fanno parte della così detta Generazione
Giurassica. Un quadro reale, chiaro, pulito e anche divertente di una
generazione di persone cresciute negli Stati Uniti, ma provenienti da diverse
nazioni. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Una generazione che si è vista costretta a sopravvivere alla fame,
alle crisi, ai tempi duri e che ha dovuto lottare per diventare qualcuno.
Questa è la Generazione Giurassica, una coppia che si incontra ancora giovane,
e che affronta molte difficoltà prima di poter essere una famiglia e prima di
costruire quello che poi sarà un severo ma perfetto equilibrio nella loro
stessa coppia di genitori. Quando arrivano in famiglia i quattro figli, il
grande T-Rex vuole crescerli con il pugno di ferro, affinché siano
indipendenti, autosufficienti, istruiti e di buone maniere, nonché onesti
uomini. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Tali valori sono trasmessi nell’unico modo di fare conosciuto dal T-Rex:
la forza. L’unico individuo che è realmente capace di equilibrare il dinosauro
è la femmina del T-Rex, la madre, Susie, che è sempre pronta ad aiutare, a
sistemare una ferita del corpo e dello spirito.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Susie è la connessione perfetta tra le due generazioni e tra
il T-Rex e la sua famiglia. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Le due storie parallele si incrociano nuovamente
quando il temuto T-Rex muore e quando la femmina sta affrontando una situazione
psicologica difficile. I quattro fratelli, che hanno vissuto vite diverse e
distanti nello spazio, si riuniscono dopo anni e ricominciano a lavorare
assieme per coinvolgere la Generazione Giurassica nella loro, per sciogliere i
nodi dei dubbi, della rabbia e delle incomprensioni. Il tutto aggrovigliato in
importanti riferimenti storici. Una storia di vita familiare, un romanzo di
vero e profondo amore coniugale, di devozione parentale. Una storia che non vi
deluderà, ogni pagina è una meravigliosa fila di perle, infilate nel filo di
una comprensione, di quel concetto di accettazione di quello che siamo,
dell’amore dell’uno per l’altro e di quello che riusciamo a fare. Nulla più,
nulla meno.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Non voglio aggiungere altro a questa descrizione. Il libro
mi è piaciuto molto. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Turpin è un bravissimo scrittore, il modo che ha di
descrivere fatti, personaggi e immagini è vivido, incredibilmente veloce senza
pregiudicare la precisione. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Un libro pieno di input importanti, non una singola parola
trita, solo pensieri intelligenti che ci fanno pensare alla vita, alla
malattia, alla pazzia, all’istruzione. Ho riso tantissimo e ho anche pianto. Fino
alla fine. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Questo è uno dei migliori libri contemporanei che io abbia
letto. Simpatico, acuto e leggero, ma allo stesso tempo toccante, prende in
considerazione punti focali della vita. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Consiglio vivamente la lettura a tutti coloro che riescono a
leggere in inglese.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Per quelli che non ce la fanno, spero tanto che Michael
pubblichi presto una traduzione! Se volete far sapere all’autore che desiderate
la traduzione, scrivete un commento qui sotto, o fate mi piace!!<o:p></o:p></div>

Hi dear readers,<br />
<br />
it's 2 a.m. here, not tired and I decided to tell you about the book I've just finished reading.<br />
<br />
I don't think you know one of my greatest passions when I go to the United States.<br />
You have to know that I really love stopping at Starbucks, queuing and looking at their blackboard and deciding what to drink. I love to pick up my coffee and sipping it as if I was drinking liquid gold.<br />
It could sound strange for an Italian person to say so, but what can I do?<br />
I simply love Starbucks. It is a place where I relax, where I feel comfort and where I can rest with my drink in hand.<br />
<br />
And guess what???? I have just read a book about Starbucks!!<br />
This is the book:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKD9aMm4HzBra_78dPMwMuyqoWmEecXXiLF9aFid-0N_agX74k2VgudveaiEYscgBZX1D-FlYXIaWB4xyjmudjB7pOwQaswlnkj1_3vbubYQapPsyDvSqWsfZWeKmOeIULuZ9o3hTn4zVm/s1600/Image.ashx%3FimageID=np88zhvY9UiCEgOGVcc0kA&Type=Full.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKD9aMm4HzBra_78dPMwMuyqoWmEecXXiLF9aFid-0N_agX74k2VgudveaiEYscgBZX1D-FlYXIaWB4xyjmudjB7pOwQaswlnkj1_3vbubYQapPsyDvSqWsfZWeKmOeIULuZ9o3hTn4zVm/s320/Image.ashx%3FimageID=np88zhvY9UiCEgOGVcc0kA&Type=Full.jpg" width="207" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The title is "Inside the cup. Translating Starbuck into a Drinkable Language" and the author is Kenneth Brown. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I immediately felt interest in this publication, (for the above mentioned reasons) and I was satisfied with it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Kenneth is a man who worked in Starbucks and, while training partners in the store, he kept on untiring studying the close relationship between Starbucks staff and customers and, more generally, observing the behavior and the attitude of customers towards Starbucks. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The book is a real how to use manual. It explains in details the most famous drinks available in the store, the ingredients, the possible modifications a customer can do to his/her drink, the difficulties arising from the extremely precise and complicated orders you may happen to place. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I found the book really interesting and also funny at the same time. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It is the very first time I come across such a "different" how to use manual.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I used my pencil to underline all the interesting passages in the book. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Kenneth is very capable in transferring his knowledge to readers. I am a Starbucks customer so I am the perfect reader of this book. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Apart from finding it very useful in order to understand what's behind a Starbucks desk, it helped me understand that it was not me that I could not pronounce the name of my drink correctly, it was just a question of understanding what I was asking for. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If you are able to read English, and if you, like me, are a Starbucks lover, you need to read this book and have it with you when you travel, in order to get 100% correct the drinks you want. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I will not tell you more about the book, which is a funny and smart (really smart), written using a fast nevertheless intelligent language. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here you can find all the details about Kenneth Brown and about his book: http://www.insidethecupbook.com/index.html</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
you can also contribute with your personal lines to Kenneth experience with Starbucks customers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You can also like his page on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Inside-the-Cup-Translating-Starbucks-into-a-Drinkable-Language/255344454539720?sk=info.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So go ahead and read it all. And let me know about your personal fav drink (mine is Espresso, or Mocha... I am Italian!! Or double Grande Latte, nevertheless I will have this useful vademecum with me in November, in New York... but this is another story I will tell you soon). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
good night everyone!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
talk to you soon!!!</div>

Ciao a tutti cari lettori, </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
sono le 2 di mattina qui e non sono per nulla stanca... per questo eccomi qui, che vi parlo della mia ultimissima lettura. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Non credo che voi siate a conoscenza di una delle mie più grandi passioni di quando mi reco negli Stati Uniti.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Dovete sapere che adoro fermarmi allo Starbucks, fare la coda, studiare la loro lavagnetta nera e ordinare cosa voglio. Mi piace davvero aspettare il mio drink e sorseggiarlo come se fosse oro liquido.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Può sembrare strano tutto ciò detto da un'italiana, ma cosa ci posso fare?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Starbucks mi piace davvero tanto! E' un posto dove mi rilasso sempre, dove mi sento a mio agio e dove posso riposare con i mio caffè in mano.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
E indovinate un po'????? Il libro che ho appena finito di leggere è proprio su Starbucks!! </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Ed eccolo qui: </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Il titolo è "Inside the cup. Translating Starbuck into a Drinkable Language" (Dentro una tazza. Tradurre Starbucks in una lingua bevibile) e l'autore è Kenneth Brown. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Mi sono da subito interessata a questa pubblicazione (per i motivi che ho già citato) e sono davvero molto soddisfatta della lettura. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Kenneth ha lavorato presso Starbucks e, mentre formava varie figure professionali, osservava instancabile le strette relazioni tra Starbucks e i suoi clienti e, più in generale, il comportamento dei clienti verso Starbucks. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Il libro è un vero e proprio manuale d'uso. Spiega nel dettaglio le bevande più famose e richieste nel negozio, gli ingredienti, le possibile modifiche che si possono apportare, le difficoltà derivanti dall'importanza di ordinare in maniera precisa e dettagliata. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Ho trovato il libro estremamente interessante e simpatico allo stesso tempo. E' la prima volta che mi imbatto in un manuale d'uso così "diverso". </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Ho usato molto spesso la mia matita per segnare e prendere appunti. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Kenneth è molto in gamba e riesce a trasmettere le sue esperienze e la sua conoscenza ai lettori. Io sono una cliente Starbucks e quindi posso definirmi una lettrice perfetta per questa pubblicazione. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Oltre a trovarlo molto utile per capire cosa si cela dietro un bancone Starbucks, il libro mi ha aiutata a capire come non stavo sbagliando nel pronunciare il nome del drink, ma era solo un problema di capire COSA stavo ordinando. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Se siete capaci di leggere in inglese e se, come me, siete degli appassionati di Starbucks, dovete assolutamente leggere questo libro e portarlo con voi mentre viaggiate, per poter ordinare con soddisfazione tutti i drink che volete. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Non vi voglio dire di più, leggete questo libro che è molto divertente e intelligente (davvero intelligente). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">

Dear readers,<br />

<br />
It is my honor to let everyone read this book of mine, a collection of poems entirely in English.<br />

THIS ONE IS WORTH READING!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Good afternoon everyone!<br />
<br />
how are you today?<br />
I am ok, starting to settling in my new flat, so I am quite glad :)<br />
<br />
Today I want to tell you about a book I've just finished reading.<br />
James Timothy White, from Canada, sent me a letter, where he asked me to read his best seller and to review it, if I considered it worth reading also for the readers of my blog.<br />
I accepted, and here I am, Timothy!<br />
<br />
The book is "42 Businesses Under 100 Dollars" and here you can see it (no Italian version is available, for the time being):<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The author is James Timothy White, a young entrepreneur, a motivational speaker and a business consultant. You can visit his website here: http://www.jamestimothywhite.com/#</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You can also like his Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/OfficialJamesTimothyWhite and follow him on twitter: https://twitter.com/officialjtw.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When I downloaded his book in my Kindle I was not really sure I would have loved it. I am not really fond on business readings, but I decided to try to start reading the book. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And well, guys, it is really interesting. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
250 pages full of good advice, practical suggestions on 42 "great low cost start-ups". </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If you are one of those who are looking for a job, who wants new challenges in life, who desire to start something on your own, but you do not know how to do it, go buy this book and read it, cos it will be really helpful. And what is very important is that you do not need a great amount of money to do so. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Moreover, you will find out many types of possible businesses you could be interested in opening, and you will discover that emotions and love, and beloved people and friends are a fundamental part in your own business activity. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Reading this book is fascinating, I didn't believe I could enjoy such a reading about business. You will find out that you can do mostly everything you want to do, the most important thing of all, according to James, is believing in yourself and put creativity and efforts in what you do, in order to be successful. I quote: "People may motivate you, but the greatest motivator is yourself, and your goals. Never underestimate the power of focus and goals, and design a healthy goal environment that keeps you in some sort of control". </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I do not want to add anything else to this review. I just warmly suggest to read the book. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Moreover, it is very well written. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So congrats, James, you surprised me and I hope you will be surprised too, and you will get the chance to get some ideas for your own business. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, for those who can read English, go read it!! :D</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
talk to you soon.</div>

Oggi vi voglio parlare di un libro che ho appena finito di leggere. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
James Timothy White, dal Canada, tempo fa mi ha inviato una lettera a casa, chiedendomi se avevo piacere di leggere il suo libro e di scrivere una recensione, qualora lo avessi considerato di interesse anche per i lettori del mio blog. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
E ho accettato... ed eccomi qui, James!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

L'autore, come avete ben intuito, è James Timothy White, un giovane imprenditore, tiene conferenze motivazionali e lavora come consulente aziendale. Potete visitare il suo sito qui: http://www.jamestimothywhite.com/#</div>

Quando ho scaricato il libro sul mio Kindle ero un tantino scettica, l'argomento non è di mio totale interesse e non ero certa che mi sarebbe piaciuto. Non mi sento particolarmente vicina all'argomento, anche se, avendo un'attività in proprio, dovrei esserlo, ma ho deciso comunque di iniziare a leggerlo. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
E ragazzi, sì, è proprio interessante.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
250 pagine piene di consigli, di suggerimenti pratici su 42 attività low cost che potete aprire. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Se siete tra quelle persone alla ricerca di un lavoro, o alla ricerca di nuove sfide nella vita, che vogliono dare vita a qualcosa di proprio, ma non sapete come fare, bè, allora non dovete fare altro che trarre spunti da questo libro. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Ciò che James sottolinea di più è il fatto che non è necessario avere una gran quantità di soldi per farlo. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Inoltre, scoprirete come ci siano molti tipi di attività che potreste trovare interessanti e che le emozioni e l'amore, le amicizie e le persone care siano una parte fondamentale nelle vostre attività.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
La lettura di questo libro è stata affascinante, proprio perché non credevo fosse possibile divertirsi leggendo aspetti così tecnici e seri della vita. Scoprirete che potete fare quasi qualsiasi cosa, la cosa più importante, secondo James, è credere in voi stessi e mettere creatività e impegno nelle cose che fate, per avere successo. "Le persone possono motivarvi, ma i veri motivatori siete voi stessi, e i vostri obiettivi. Non dovete mai sottovalutare il potere degli obiettivi, e mettete tutto l'impegno per creare attorno a voi un ambiente sano di obiettivi che vi tengano focalizzati e sotto controllo". </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
Non voglio aggiungere altro. Vi consiglio caldamente di leggere il libro (che, tra le altre cose, è scritto molto bene). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
quindi, congratulazioni James! Mi hai sorpreso e spero che rimarrete stupiti anche voi, e potrete trarre qualche idea interessante per le vostre attività.</div>

Good morning dear readers.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
How are you today? Fresh and ready for your new day?<o:p></o:p></div>

And most important of all, are you ready to read today’s
post?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I have just finished reading a book that entered my life
quite unexpectedly and in a way that I would have never imagined.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I will not enter into details of this, you just need to know
that I received an ebook in my e-mail box a few days ago. The author of the
book is Guido Mattioni, born in Udine, living in Milan.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I immediately felt close to Guido, partly because of our
common regional background, partly because I liked his face and his blue eyes. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Anyway, I started reading this book (I received it both in
Italian and in English).</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

The title is Whispering tides. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The picture you see in the jacket of the book was taken in
Savannah by Guido himself. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You can find it online in every famous online stores
(Smashwords: were the book was born, and self published by the writer;
Amazon.it and Amazon.com and much more).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Guido is an Italian journalist. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Whispering tides is the story of a man who loses his beloved
wife after 23 years of intense and happy life with her. He has lived all his
life divided between Milan and the United States, where he often went with his
wife Nina. The place where they both feel like home and where he fells in love
is Savannah, a city in Georgia, where they both learn to listen to the
whispering tides of the Moon River. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The novel (yes, it is a novel… but not only…) tells us the
story of pain and great sufference that this man, Alberto,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>lives for the first time without his other
half. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is not a mere telling us his pain. No. It is a real and
great novel about places, about feelings, about the importance of love and
frienship, about true relations between people. Something that we have lost in our
stressed and hurried days, among our grey and faceless skyscrapers and among
dried and hard (in)human hearts. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This a perfect description of Nature, with capital letter.
Nature, who takes you by the hand when everything seems lost and destroied.
Nature, who can heal your wounds. Nature, who can rock while you cry. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
All this is contained in this book. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I admit I cried several times. Tears from deep inside of me.
Tears that Guido is able to watch and listen to without that feeling of shame
that people usually feel while crying in front of others. You feel like
everything is ok, you are again able to be a human being. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Guido is in deeply in love with Savannah. The city and its
(or better, her) inhabitants helped him going through the obscure grief of the
death of his wife. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I do not want to tell you more about the story, the book and
about Guido. You really need to go on and do it yourself. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Here are his contacts and some links you may find interesting: <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Buongiorno miei adorati lettori. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Come vi sentite? Pronti per affrontare un’altra nuova
giornata?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
E, cosa molto più importante… pronti a leggere il mio nuovo
post?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Ho appena terminato la lettura di un libro che è entrato
nella mia vita in maniera alquanto inaspettata e poco ortodossa. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Non entererò in dettagli su questo, vi basti sapere che un
bel giorno ho ricevuto nella mia casella di posta elettronica una copia ebook
(sia in italiano, sia in inglese) di un autore fino a quel momento a me
sconosciuto. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
L’autore è Guido Mattioni, nato a Udine, trasferitosi poi a
Milano. Mi sono immediatamente sentita vicina a Guido, come amica, in parte per
le nostri origini friulane comuni, in parte perché mi è subito piaciuto il suo
volto e i suoi occhi azzurri.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Comunque, ho iniziato a leggere il suo libro…. Che in
italiano si intitola “Ascoltavo le maree”.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
La foto che vedete in copertina è stata scattata da Guido in
persona a Savannah, Georgia, Stati Uniti. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Potete trovare il suo libro su tutti i siti online
(Smashwords, dove il libro ha preso forma tramite l’autopubblicazione; Amazon.it e Amazon.com e molti altri). <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Guido è un giornalista italiano.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Ascoltavo le maree è la storia di un uomo che tutto d’un
tratto perde la sua adorata moglie, dopo 23 anni di raggiante matrimonio. Ha
sempre vissuto la sua vita tra Milano e gli Stati Uniti, dove si reca spesso
con sua moglie Nina. La città prescelta (o sono loro i prescelti?), dove entrambi
si sono sentiti innamorati, dove si sono sentiti a casa, è Savannah, in
Georgia. Qui entrambi imparano ad ascoltare le maree del Moon River. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Il romanzo (sì.. è proprio un romanzo… ma non solo) ci
racconta dell’infinito dolore e dell’indicibile sofferenza (che Guido riesce a
trasmettere alla perfezione) di quest’uomo, Alberto, che inizia la sua nuova
vita senza la sua altra metà. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Non è un mero raccontare del suo dolore. No. Il romanzo è un
vero e proprio diario di luoghi, di sentimenti, dell’importanza dell’amore e
dell’amicizia quella vera, delle relazioni sincere tra le persone. Qualcosa che
abbiamo perso, o andiamo perdendo giorno dopo giorno, nel frullare dei nostri
giorni stressati e pieni di impegni, tra i grigi e anonimi grattacieli e tra i cuori
(in)umani, così vuoti, così impietriti. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Una descrizione minuziosa, perfetta della Natura, quella con
la N maiuscola. La Natura che ti prende per mano e ti accompagna nel momento
della disperazione, quando tutto ha il sapore del perduto e della distruzione.
La Natura, che riesce a risanare ogni ferita. La Natura, che può cullarti
mentre piangi. Tutto questo sta nelle pagine di questo meraviglioso libro. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Ammetto di aver pianto, più volte. Lacrime dal profondo di
me. Lacrime che Guido è in grado di guardare, senza giudicare, di ascoltare
senza che tu ti senta in imbarazzo. Riesci a sentire che va bene così, che
emozionarsi è il primo passo verso ritrovare se stessi. E tornare ad essere
umani. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Guido è per davvero innamorato di Savannah. Della città e
dei suoi abitanti, che l’hanno aiutato sul serio ad affrontare
l’incommensurabile perdita improvvisa della moglie. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Non voglio svelare nulla più, né del libro, né di Guido.
Dovete assolutamente scoprire questo mondo da soli (e il finale, è più che a sorpresa!). Scoprite come è liberatorio
sentire di nuovo la Natura, sentire che possiamo per davvero soffrire davanti
agli altri, capire che stare chiusi in noi stessi è inutile. <o:p></o:p></div>
