Many months ago, surfing on the web, I came upon the site of CitizenM and I was intrigued by the new formula of this hotels chain. Last February, having to go to Amsterdam,  I booked a room at their Amsterdam City hotel.

I enjoyed the 14 suare meters room with all the comforts, in particular the king-sided bed (2 x 2 meters!) , the lobby furnished with contemporary design pieces, the 24 hour bar and the kindness of the staff.

I wasn't disappointed, they really "create affordable luxury for the people", and by people they mean "those who travel the world with big heart and wide eyes",

I warmly recommend it.

Annalisa Melchiorre - fashion consultant - Naoko Ogawa jewels

 

I saw Naoko Ogawa jewels for the first time in Berlin, a couple of years ago. Today I stumbled upon her website and I am still impressed by the way she plays with sense of touch and light.
 
See this silver plate brooch. "I would like you to enjoy this jewelry by putting the silver plate on your body and crushing it together with your cloth to hold on. This enables you to change the look of your clothes by creating fluid folds on them."

Annalisa Melchiorre - fashion consultant - Dimitri Herskovits storyteller

Some time ago Dimitri sent me an e-mail and after reading some of his tales I couldn't help to meet him immediately.
Dimitri Herskovits was born in Paris and has grown up in New York and Tokyo, at the moment he lives in Milan.
He is a storyteller and a copywriter, Jewish and Buddhist, very tall and sensitive. His out of the ordinary tallness conditioned his life and gave him a different outlook on world. For his stories he gets inspiration from the advertising placard he sees riding a made to measure bike round the city, the result is quite odd and very poetic.
In the picture Dimitri is the one on the right, of course.

Annalisa Melchiorre - fashion consultant - Australian tea time

These three sisters have grown up by now but I can assure you they are still as charming as in the picture.
They are based in Australia and design a clothing/accessories fresh and modern collection with an eye to the Japanese tradition.
