Afternoon shade

4 O’CLOCK IN MILANAs some of you guys might know last week James and I were invited by Guess to come in Milan in order to see their new collection. It is always such a huge pleasure to be back in Italy, I am in love with it’s atmosphere, ambiance, culture (food food food). Especially during the Christmas period, the city was quite crowded as well as the shops. However I still managed to do a really cool shopping session, I am a huge fan of S.M Novella, a great spot for creams and body butters. Luckily we are coming back to Italy in January and more precisely to Florence for a very cool project which I can’t wait to talk to you about. Any guess?
Anyway, on our last day in Milan we decided to take a little walk around our hotel, the Nhow which is a really cool modern design spot. As it was so cold, and that I didn’t take that much clothing with me since we were staying only for one night, I decided to wear my new Guess look once again (I wore the dress and the shoes in my previous article) but instead of making it an evening outfit I combined it with a faux fur coat, a scarf and some black tights to make it more urban. And you know what I am the first one to say it if I see that something doesn’t work with my look (sadly I notice it only once the pictures shot). After wearing this look with and without black tights, I feel like the dress looks better with bare legs. What do you guys think about it? Well still, let’s just admit that it’s not really the season to hang out bare legs, at least if you’re not Anna Dello Russo.

Hi Kristina
To answer your question: I think that the tights make the dress seem more relaxed as I suppose you were trying to make it look. I agree that noone should go out barelegged in that kind of weather. A good trick is to get a really good pair of nylon tights - I can recommend tights by WOLFORD. They give almost the same warmth as cotton tights in my opinion. Of course wool would be the best if you easily get cold.
I've said this before but I have to do it again! Kristina, you are my big inspiration. Your ambitions and work ethic really inspires me. You make me believe in my own dreams - and work to see them come true.
I love how you stay true to yourself - I hope you never change that.
You are younger of age than me, but I look up to you! You are my idol - I've never had one before, but you are worthy of that! The way you put so much effort and believe in your blog really is a great inspiration. Everytime there's a new blogpost on here I read it first thing! Keep on the good work - I really look forward to see what 2013 will bring for you, Kristina.
A lot of love from Denmark!

I like the look with tights! You are right, it makes it more cold-weather friendly. Tights are the best way to give summer dresses a chance when the temperature drops.
http://www.ncpdesign.com/But, a faux-fur coat usually suits a bare leg, a sheer tight. I think it is the proportion of the coat that throws off the look.
You look ravishing regardless!

I think black tights don't even matter, but maybe you're right ^^
http://www.blogger.com/profile/04572915394540126247But honestly I really can't stand fur or even faux-fur so sorry but I don't like your coat.

Well, as you said, the dress shines itself with bare legs, but to make it more urban it was necessary to wear tights I think. It looks great with the faux fur coat, and the shoes are amazing (I wish I could buy both of them!!) Are the shoes comfortable?
I can't wait you to tell more about that project that's coming (:
Have a nice day Kristina!
Ana.

I do love this look still! Even with the tights (although I agree that it probably looks better without...but most dresses do). I'm actually going to live in Florence next fall! I would love if you could give some tips on your favorite places to eat/shop/etc? Even for Milan too!
