SALDI @ GASOLINE!!!

Right before fashion week, Milan has been (and still is) in an uproar with all the sales.

Pay two drinks, and we'll give you the third.

You need to have that third whiskey. Especially before Friday morning's credit card bill gets to your front door....

Take a peek!

You can always dress up in a plastic bag when your closet is in the laundry.

I don't think I've seen a BIG HUG like that since the Teletubbies...

After the JUMPPPP!

XMAS MARKET PARTY @ Gasoline

And with that, Christmas is definitively here. Brought to you by Ale the Christmas Tree.

This last Thursday before Christmas, the Gasoline Crew decided to do things a little bit different. Instead of the usual Party-Party-Party-All-The-Time, they arranged a fundraiser for Ospedale dei Bambini - OBM. You can find their website here if you want to make an effort as well.

Those who came with a toy and dropped it into Santa's huge sack, got in for free. The toys were then donated to be gifts to those less fortunate. By the end of the night, the sack was packed, so we'd like to send a big thank you to everyone!

More Christmas Spirit After the JUMP!!!

A fine fine.

In Barcelona, if you smoke on the metro, you have to pay the price of 30 EUR and... 5 cents.

Round number, don't you think?

It's Vintage!

The thought of old clothes make some people gag. Of course, if we're talking about moth-eaten shoes, I share the same idea.

But in a time where everyone wants to be unique and individual and... blah, blah, blah... you either make it yourself, have someone design you a unique piece or go vintage.

As for vintage shops, there are plenty of rather disgusting ones, but if you find a really good one... let's just say that I'm in heaven and HALLELUUUUUJAH.

More after the JUMP!!!

Babykiller Outlet

Spotted close to Moscova ->

Mommy, I'm scared.

Shophopping Oslo edition

Yes!

Factory Outlet is an almost secret shop next to the beautiful river Akerselven, close to Ringens Breweries. They sell only Scandinavian brands, and not only from past collections. Every now and then they hold amazing sales where prices jump as much as 90% from retail price. We were there that day!

We think mores stores should be located around waterfalls.

With all those bags, the way to get home looked steeper than usual.

Vogue - Fashion's Night Out @ Milano

Darling people of the World. There are so many days to celebrate. But this one really stands out, at least in our modest opinion

- VOGUE: FASHION'S NIGHT OUT -

September 10th 2009

What better way to tackle the financial crisis (after all, we are Bocconiani, future economists) than a night dedicated to the joy of shopping?

I know you probably have many answers, and if you do... well, you're all wrong. Screw interest rates or whatever you think might fix the problem. If this is not the solution, it's at least a pretty good reason to dress your best, grab your wallet and start shopping for your life.

Shops were open until 23:00, some even later. Oh, and when you get a drink upon entering the store, Euros are bound to fly...

The celebration was held in most major fashion cities, but right now Milan is the number one place to be (we say so, everyone say so - it's truth). So long Paris, so long NYC. Benvenuti a Milano:

Giorgio Armani made an appearance at the Armani Store in Via Manzoni with his pals.

Camikaze finding something she likes.

Mannequins are so last year.

Prima Sagra Der Dito n'Culo.

Jenny Pie

Anna Piaggi.

There's probably nothing as Vogue in this World as this gal. She has written for Vogue and Vanity Fair and is often featured on the fashion blog bible The Sartorialist. She is said to never appear with the same outfit twice in public. And to quote Manolo Blahnik, she is...

"the World's last great authority on frocks"

Bartender at Dior

Shopping is fun!

Shopping is magical.

Shopping is Social.

We met this wonderful woman from Lost In Fashion. Notice the gold in the hair.

The Beth-Ditto-On-The-Cover-Of-Love T-shirt. Fabulous.

Pens and Designer bags don't mix well. :(

Tonight's Fashion Victim #1

...and # 2

And for everyone who wants to know - the Sad Hamster Pose is the shit this year.

Hello Oslo!

11 days before we take back Milan.

Running errands in Oslo can be quite an adventure, especially when you have a camera. I ended up losing my keys (put them in the camera bag - thanks Lowepro), but met some wonderful liberals out on stand before the election...

...and a Spanish shop owner who knows how to sell Marc J's.

In the Main Street (Karl Johans Gate) I learned that you can wear boots on a sunny day.

You're allowed to match your shoulderbags with your pants.

Even skaters can be punk.

And choirs can be skate...

High waisted skirts can be plaid - and leather jackets are a yes-yes.

And with two girls named Therese stopped today...I only know one that can pull this off. Notice the ballerinas.
