Cecilia's quest: Meet me at Universal

Alessandro is still in LA, he's going to spend a day at Universal Studio's park. There he hopes to meet one of the gorgeous girls that are lurking around the house.
He's in for a shocker! It looks like I've been in a mischievous mood when I prepared this photosession, as I sent Cecilia and Nasty to meet him there....we shall see.....
Alessandro is wearing one of the Urban Safari outfits, I really love his striped trousers.
Cecilia wears one of the floral dresses I sew for the girls.  I made this one  with her in mind, right down from the fabric, and think this is truly befitting to her.


The trouble with Cecilia is that she's always expecting too much, when she heard she was going to meet Alessandro at Universal Studios she was sure she's was going to have a screen test....so you can imagine how disappointed she was when she found out that they were just going to an amusement park!


"No screen test, and not even the VIP tour of the studios"


"Ok Cecilia, they didn't let us finish the visit, but Nasty shouldn't have bitten the monster...."


"Don't you dare! I don't care if these are the kingdom's best. I won't eat Waffles at a Donkey's"


This was very nice


No, I won't have  brontosaurus' burger. Where are those "nice places to eat a bit" you've been blabbering about?


I won't get back on that silly bus. I'm going at least to walk onto a real set!


So, who  is she?


Ok Cecilia, let's get home......

So, it looks like they didn't really "hit off", Alessandro is really disappointed, she spoiled all the fun, and she is so angry at me!

Best luck next time for both of them....maybe.....

By the way, I loved Universal Studio's Park, I've been there twice, and both times I had a lot of fun. Some of the shows are changed, and I've read they tore down the Monsters Hall, so we'll just have to go again to see all the new things!

Hommes Fashion 2: Alessandro in L.A.

I've been browsing the net a lot lately, to find some inspiration for my hommes fashions, it's not easy finding something feasable and not boring, yet something one can actually use.....I've  found some very weird things, and then I discovered something it's going to be a big hit around here: Urban Safari!

Among the many things, the first that caught my eyes was this beautiful outfit by Diesel as I thought it would be perfect for the guys!

So, Alessandro can finally leave his hotel room and  do some wandering around L.A!
For the sweater I used a piece of polyester scarf (which happened to have a diamond pattern very similar to the one of the original outfit) and wool jersey for the sleeves, the same scarf and jersey for the jacket. The trousers are made of a gabardine fabric. Boots by Paul Zangby.

Well, this outfit was real fun, and I like the fact that I shall interchange pieces with other things I'm working on....more hommes fashions to come!

Ps. will Alessandro meet some of the girls around Universal Studios?

See you soon

Alessandro: Mad about the boy 2

Time has come to introduce Alessandro, I've decided that each guy shall have his own "place" so, as Carlo is based in San Francisco, Alessandro shall be based in LA. As I don't have a favourite hotel in LA (I had one but they closed it, too bad they had the most exquisite breakfast buffet I tried in my life) I had to choose one. After much browsing on the net I picked the Raffles l'Ermitage in Beverly Hills. It looks very comfortable, and its huge rooms fits very well Alessandro.





Alessandro is a sexy thing, I like the way he has to look straight into the camera....so self confident!


I also appreciate his sweet side, looks like he's very versatile: he has  boyhis but manly looks! I've been already working on Alessandro's wardrobe, and I think I've found his "stile"......before leaving him, here's one last shot:


Of course he's a true Sampdorian too.....(happy Sasha?)
