Halloween
"[...]Halloween o Hallowe'en è il nome di una festa popolare di origine pre-cristiana, ora tipicamente statunitense e canadese, che si celebra la sera del 31 ottobre. Tuttavia, le sue origini antichissime affondano nel più remoto passato delle tradizioni europee: viene fatta risalire a quando le popolazioni tribali usavano dividere l'anno in due parti in base alla transumanza del bestiame. Nel periodo fra ottobre e novembre, preparandosi la terra all'inverno, era necessario ricoverare il bestiame in luogo chiuso per garantirgli la sopravvivenza alla stagione fredda: è questo il periodo di Halloween.[...]"
Fonte: Wikipedia
Halloween è una tradizione popolare particolarmente diffusa nei paesi anglosassoni. Il fascino e la magia di questa festa colpisce anche la popolazione italiana, nonostante si tratti di una ricorrenza non appartenente alla nostra cultura.
Zucche, ragnatele e ragni, insetti, scheletri e mostri: sono queste le figure che popolano la notte del 31 ottobre di ogni anno.
I bambini si divertono ad andare di casa in casa, dopo il tramonto ed abbigliati con costumi tipici di Halloween, pronunciando l'ormai celebre frase “Dolcetto o scherzetto?”; è consigliato rispondere “Dolcetto!” dando ai piccoli qualche caramella... o i padroni di casa saranno vittime di qualche simpatico scherzo!
In occasione della notte di Halloween, possiamo decorare la nostra casa con ghirlande, ragnatele finte o la famosa zucca svuotata e poi illuminata grazie ad una candela al suo interno.
Vicki Shields mette a disposizione un semplice tutorial per realizzare delle ghirlande a forma di zucca: semplici e divertenti, potrete coinvolgere anche i vostri figli in questo progetto!
...anche i membri dell'EtsyItaliaTeam hanno reso omaggio a questa festa!

Milan Fashion Week meet Handmade on EtsyItalia
Cominciamo subito:
Gucci - Motivi geometrici in nero e oro dominano la scena, assieme a frange e lustrini che rimandano ad un charleston, rivisitato in chiave moderna; applausi per Frida Giannini, direttore creativo di Gucci. Tra i venditori Etsy italiani ecco un oggetto che segue il trend di accostare nero e oro: la collana in pelle borchiata di Chickslab, meno anni ’20 e più futuristica, ma ugualmente molto bella.
Dolce & Gabbana - Propone per la prossima estate una collezione molto variegata che passa per abiti bustier con stampe di melanzane e pomodori, pizzi fioriti in toni pastello, nero o arricchiti da pietre colorate e paillettes, i miei preferiti. E da Etsy una collana di Sobby che mixa corallo e turchese illuminati dall’argento, unione perfettamente estiva.
Gabriele Colangelo - La nuova stella nel firmamento della moda italiana, presenta a Milano una collezione che vede modelli dalle linee pulite e tessuti impalpabili; le tinte sono per lo più neutre con una predilezione per il monocromatico accostato a tocchi neon e parti in organza lisce o con lavorazioni di paillettes blu mare. In Etsy ho scelto una coppia di orecchini in carta di Manufactapaper, che per geometria ed essenzialità mi ricordano questo modello di Colangelo.

Ci vediamo su Etsy!

Milan Fashion Week meet Handmade on EtsyItalia
The most important month for spring/summer 2012 fashion with Paris comes close to the end, but Etsy Italy focuses on Milan, where the fashion week has just ended hosting designers bringing worldwide taste and elegance of Italian fashion. Let’s start:
Gucci, black and gold geometric pattern, fringes and sequins suggest a modern Charleston, congratulations to Frida Giannini, Gucci creative director. Among Etsy Italian sellers here’s the item matching black and gol style, a leather statement necklace with little gold studs made by Chickslab, less twenties and more space age , very beautiful as well.
Dolce & Gabbana, for next summer the collection is very rich with bustier dresses printed with tomatoes and Mediterranean kitchen ingredients, flower lace in pastel colors or black and finally lace dresses with gems, colored stones and sequins. From Etsy a necklace made by Sobby, the mix of coral and turquoise stones with silver parts, a perfect summer combo.
Gabriele Colangelo, a new star in the italian fashion system, the collection shows clean shapes and light fabrics, neutral teints with fluo touches and organza parts, plain or embellished with blue sea sequins. On Etsy I’ve chosen some paper earrings made by Manufactapaper, their geometric shape and baldness reminds me this Colangelo dress.

See you on Etsy!

Halloween
"[...]Halloween o Hallowe'en is the name of a holiday of pre-Christian origin, now typically American and Canadian, celebrated on October 31. However, its antique origins lose themselves in the remotest past of European traditions: they date back to the time when tribal populations used to divide the year in two parts, according to the livestock transhumance. In the period between October and November, since the ground was preparing itself for Winter time, people need to recover livestock indoor to guarantee its survival during the cold season: this is Halloween period.[…]
Source: Wikipedia (translated from italian version)
Halloween is a folk tradition, particularly popular in Anglo-Saxon countries. The charm and the magic of this holiday fascinate Italian people too, although it doesn’t belong to our culture.
Pumpkins, spiders’ webs, bugs, skeletons, monsters: these characters come to life in the night of October 31, every single year.
Children have fun going house-to-house after the sunset, wearing typical Halloween costumes, and saying the famous expression “Trick or treat?”; it’s recommended to answer “Treat!” and to give them some candies… or the homeowners will be victims of some funny tricks!
On the occasion of Halloween night, we can decorate our home with garlands, fake webs or the famous empty pumpkin, illuminated thanks to a candle inside it.
Vicki Shields shared an easy tutorial to make pumpkin shaped garlands: easy and funny, you can involve your children in this project!
…also EtsyItaliaTeam members paid homage to this holiday!

Fashion trends F/W 2011 - Color,color,color!

Silk graphic dress by Nivule
Rise your hand if you've been pleasantly overwhelmed by the trends of the soon arriving fall/winter!
I've been for sure! The fashion shows and the various collections presented have given room to colors galore,which is very strange,since in the latest years there has always been a certain strictness, in choosing the palettes for the cold season.

Leather bag by Homemadebags
I was already used to see black,brown,grey in all his shades,dark blue,etc etc....
And here comes the surprise of this year :maybe due to the throughout prevailing economical crisis,fashion has almost wanted to make us a gift,giving us the chance to brighten up or winter wardrobes.
Obviously,we people of the Etsy Italia Team could not be outdone!

Ruffled pink and red scarf from Callmemimì
Most trendy colors will be:
-Turquoises and all electric or ultramarine blues
-Oranges: from the most phosphorescent to the darkest and burnt.
-Ochres and "mustard", been famous on Etsy from years on
-Fire red
-Violet in all its brightest shades
-Emerald green and peacock green

Obviously making it a jumble of colors is never advisable,but since fashion is also fun and amusement,why not to juxtapose 2 or 3 colors?
As you can see from the photos,the result is amazing to say the least!
And you?What will be your color for fall/winter 2011?
have a blast and let us know!
