-Benedetta, tell us about you and your life
I don't really like to talk about my private life, I'm an entrepreneur. My interests don't cover fashion. The blog is a world apart, created to share passions with people who love photography and people sensitive to details that for many others can appear vacuous and frivolous in everyday life.
Since it is a very curious name, it was one of the first things that I specified when I opened the blog. As difficult to understand, the name was chosen to celebrate the '"elegance of my father" which unfortunately died a few years ago. So, as a reminder to consult in the future, I created a blog that contains everything that my father taught me, all its passions, its vices, its rules, which made him to my eyes as a great style icon. Page by page, I'm building a modern world, which recalls scenes of the past through a collage of memories and every time I do, the nostalgia seems to be increasingly distant. It's like seeing before me all the details I loved to watch and that introduced me from my childhood in the world of art, of style, of fashion and of beauty.
- Where do you take inspiration for your posts and for your outfits?
Certainly on my mood, from what the day can reserve me, from the style that tickles me in that moment. I always like to change and to use different colors and items. It's like to discover a new version of yourseld, everyday. Renewal means get yourself fully involved, don't give in to the habits and then don't getting bored.
- What is the post, on your blog, that like most?
Probably the one about homemade hats, named "Chapeau". In this post I photographed many of my father hats. The hat is a charming and full of class accessory, which attracts some of my blog key themes and its style, a bit British and dandy.
- And the most beautiful comment you received on your blog?
That from a visitor after a few months since the blog was born; she proved moved by my story and she told me that my father would be proud of me. For a moment I felt that he was watching me. It was a really strong emotion.
- What's your current season favourite trend?
Definitely, the one about pastel colors, which soften the figure and make fine and delicate even a simple outfit. You can play with different colors because these are very delicate and never clash, polishing your appearance.
-Your wardrobe essentials are…
Certainly can't miss in my wardrobe classic and evergreen pieces as shirts, particularly those with bow, blazer from bright fantasies and colors or pastel colors and a multitude of shoes, different by height and material. Finally, can't miss contemporary quality accessories and bags or items purchased in the most curious vintage shops founded around the world. Spend less and buy something unique is rewarding for you and enriches your own style.
