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:

"Era una tiepida serata quasi estiva, e lei indossava un esile, fresco abito nero, sandali neri, un filo di perle."

2. LO STILETTO
Jimmy Choo
Drink code: White wine style Pouilly-Fuissé
3. IL TRENCH
Burberry
Drink code: Whisky, Vodka, Rum (the magnitude of the alcohol is what counts)

-Gianfranco Ferre

5. LA BORSA

6. IL GOLF IN CASHMERE
