A pretty jungle!


Hi everyone!

I've been looking around and I've been noticing that at least in the city I live it has turned into a whole jungle! Not that there are tigers, lions, palms or falls out there but because I can only see leopard prints around. It is on tunics, trench coats, t-shirts, leggings, ... everywhere! And so I've came across with the idea of writing a new post about it with new inspiring streetlooks but then I'd be writing about something I've already done. Solution: to post pictures showing leopard prints in some kind of more original and "not so seen" places as a hat, a pair of shoes, shorts and a belt...

I really like this kind of print on girls, some of them look just perfect. I think I'm able to say it's a pretty jungle out there, don't you think?

Shoes of the Season - Valentino

These are the shoes of the year - not that this means they've won any award but because they've become quite famous among trendsetter these last fashion shows in Paris. I think these Valentino shoes are a piece of extreme elegance, combining a classic shape with a rock inpired silver tacks - they were even already spotted by Scott Schuman' Sartorialist blog in one of his posts.
There are 3 options for this style: 2 anckle options in different colourways and a flat option, which you can find for further information at Valentino's online shop and easily acquired by the amount of  €650... Enjoy!

Fashion Transcending Genders?

Hi guys!

Sorry for my lately absence but I've been very busy (with some new and successful projects) and it's been difficult to be focused enough and keep on sharing my daily sources around blogs with you all. But fortunately this interest in fashion (and some sort of sense of style) I've started writing for the famous website Fashionbeans.com.
These are very recent news and maybe a cause of my absence once the first article must be the most important and the one that will show your personal writing style that should obviously be improved each time I decide writing.

Well I hope you enjoy the article and thank you for the good luck wishes. Please find the link below.
Obviously Looks&Tips will keep on updating you with the latest trends, because as you already know:
all the trends come from your daily style!

Alexander McQueen for Persol



"The persol 649S, created in 1957, became instant legend when Marcello Mastroianni wore them in the Pietro Germi film "Divorce Italian style". A favorite of Steve Mcqueen’s both on and off the screen. 1994's French book "Qualita: scenes d'objects a l'italienne" declared it one of the objects most representative of the Italian genius of yesterday and today.
This is truly a classic. Retro, timeless styling, distinct from all the “look a like” sunglasses made today, a definite head turner, and a piece that has a place in all sunglass collections." -
