Assolutamente GLAM!

I just read the second book of Cinzia Felicetti, an Italian writer and a columnist who has a blog in Italian Elle. Previously I had read "Principesse si diventa" that includes fabulous tips for grownup princesses! This book "Assolutamente Glam" concentrates on the 10 most important pieces in every women's style. Here they come with some quotes (sorry but in Italian) & Cinzia's suggestions to drink codes:
