Fashion Fun VENEZIA! Sonia Rykiel Tank Top, MIU MIU Cardigan & GUESS? High Rise Denim Cruise at Piazza San Marco di Piazzetta

November 20-25

Piazza San Marco, Venezia

 

O! Solo Mio! Ciao, Venezia! Piazza San Marco, ‘The Drawing Room of Europe’ by Napoleon I, the drama stage of The Merchant of Venice by William Shakespeare, and where the author of Gospel of Mark reclines nearby, is composed of the Doge’s Palace, San Marco Basilica, San Marco Clock Tower, administrative mansion buildings connected with the Napoleon Wing Buildings and the San Marco Biblioteca. The rectangular square surrounded by the Grand Canal, is about 170 meters long, 80 meters wide on the east side, forming the social, religious and political centre of Venice since 1177. 

 

In 2022 we aim for VENICE BIENNALE, within three weeks we secure the biennale pass, the last-minute deal from RYAN AIR, experience the 2-hour delay and finally land at MARCO POLO AIRPORT for my birthday week celebration. Hotel GORIZIA A LA VALIGIA is only 5 minute walk to Piazza San Marco, the water buses, the gondolas, the souvenir shops, the café and outnumbered restaurants are in walking distances. We are fortunate not to suffer from any flooding moments, while supremely unfortunate to witness the thunderstorms on November 22^nd , unwilling to race with the chilling raindrops through the seven bridges from Arsenale Biennale Di Venezia via Piazza San Marco. 

After a good rest and visiting designer outlet NOVENTA DI PIAVE, the outfits of the day at Giardini della Biennale are relaxed yet posh. SONIA RYKIEL 66% virgin wool and 34% viscose knitted tank top offers a sheer sexy look, while the fine materials still keeps the warmth; wearing Calvin Klein pastel pink underwear contrasts the ivory hue a posh style. 

 

Publicly launched in 1993, MIU MIU was established by Miuccia Prada, with a cutie-themed collection in pastel colour tones, MIU MIU items usually decorate the final whimsical touch of my rather posh styles. MIU MIU square cardigan in dark grey containing 67% mohair, 28% polyamide and 5% wool, is a great bargain found at NOVENTA DI PIAVE; furthermore, its rather slimmer sleeves allow to tuck in BY MALENE BIRGER puffy wool coat, which contains 34% kid mohair, 34% wool, 27% polyamide and 5 % of elastane, not only keeps me warm in chilly morning in Venezia, but also bestows the Nordic simplicity and detailed quality. 

 

Made in Mexico, GUESS? high rise regular denim owns 99% cotton and 1% spandex, with vintage iron tone of the buttons, to provide relaxed touch yet lavish details. I adore its 100% cotton reversed triangle GUESS with poppy red question mark logo tag on the right rear pocket, with its high rise waist design, the silhouette of buttocks and thighs are extremely smooth and sexy. 

As for accessories, MIU MIU round-frame glittered acetate sunglasses own the gradient lenses, which are suitable to wear indoors at VENEZIA BIENNALE; they are also handy to tuck up for the instant hairband. DIOR CEINTURE SADDLE offers a removable calfskin belt will bring a touch to any outfits. A subtle homage to the Dior Saddle collection with its flap and metal D stirrup magnetic clasp, with two card slots and one zipped pocket and Fatto in Italia, not doubt I manage the easy cozy style for Venezia Biennale.

TOP TIP 1: In Venezia, take a spare pair of plastic slippers or rain boots for the unexpected climate impacts

TOP TIP 2: Check and avoid the high tide moments of Venezia before book the tickets, wear the layering style to adjust the chilly mornings and evenings
