jeans + leggings: and that's all!

Leggings were not enough. And skinny jeans too. A fashion that wants extreme trousers, painted on women’s legs, was supposed to create jeggings.
Created by Topshop, the fashion chain that have allowed Kate Moss to become a stylist, this type of clothing is the softer and comfortable version of skinny jeans, but a little more structured than simple leggings.
The result is a pair of trousers really tight that leave nothing to the imagination, in cotton, polyester and spandex, adapted to the girl figure and promise to be less rigid than simple jeans.
Will they last?

Maybe they’re not so wearable, but the new shoes born from the mind of the designer and architect Zaha Hadid are surely unique and ethically coherent.
The Brazilian company Melissa presents a collection based on the complete eco-sustainability of the production process, that uses a plastic processing technique called thermic injection.

Melissa's jelly shoes

The brand presents the innovative match between architecture, fashion and eco-sustainability in the interesting frame of Salone Internazionale del Mobile in Milan, international key event in the home furnishing sector, in its open day.
Zaha Hadid has been the first woman to win the Pritzker Prize of architecture (chapeau!) and has declared she have enjoyed the synergy with the brand, whose production technology is perfectly married with the sinuous lines that characterize the architect’s style.
Melissa is not new to the collaborations: from Eighties artists as Vivienne Weswood, Judy Blame, Karim Rashid have contributed to join the brand with art.

Ok, Eighties are back.
And together are back fuseaux (even if now they’re called leggings).
However, was required the coming back of this?

I don’t want to preach sermons, but honestly I consider it a stuff too much difficult to be joined with elegance and, at the same time, too daily to be really part of a creative look: it’s not clear how to define the real destination of this item.

And Alexander Wang model it’s not so bad: I’m thinking about the many cheap imitations that risk to be “Salvation Army” style.

There’s a big problem now: more that I look at it and more I convince myself that it will look good with a pair of black leggings.
If stars wear it, why I should not?

Black money for uncontrolled shopping

Also the rich cries, when rich means the big fashion brands.

Crisis, either real, presumed or perceived, have had effect in every field, and the compulsive shopping has been one of the most stroke, also in reason of mass media alarmism, that enter in the human psychology making us feel guilty even if we buy only a toothpaste.
Virtually impossible is then to imagine to desire a pair of expensive jeans, under penalty of morale flogging from who sees the shopper that you’re pointlessly trying to hide with the outlet one.

But the indestructible Diesel, always watchful and careful to what happens in the world have planned a promotion that will allow everyone to be proud also after have made uncontrolled purchases.

From Friday April 17 to the next Sunday, it’s possible to buy Diesel articles saving 30%, in some selected shops: it’s enough to show, besides real money, the special black notes distributed in dedicated corners from the generous brand operators. But, unlike the real world, in the Diesel reality you can also print money by yourself at home, after downloaded from the website, printed and cut them out.
To pile it on there’s also the name of the marketing device: “Black Friday”, like the 1929 one…
However, what is the foreboding of a black

Friday compared with discount t-shirts, dresses and jeans?
