    I love how you describe yourself :)

    “NARS-issist” – LOL, is that yours?

    • superqueen May 15, 2009 at 11:37 pm #

      No, it’s not mine. I’ve read it somewhere on Flickr, but I like to use it because it perfectly describes my obsession for NARS cosmetics ;)

    Randomly found your blog whilst searching for “Victorian” and “perfume” – I see we have a lot in common! LOVE your style of writing, the moodboards you put together and the way you inspire me to lust after yet more lovely things. Damn you. ;)

      I’ve never ever received such a flattering compliment! I teach English but it is not my mother tongue, so thanks a lot for appreciating my style of writing.
      I usually am the one who lusts after so many things I see on other blogs/sites, so for once I’m happy to be the tempter and not the tempted ;)

      Hi!
      I’m sorry but I cannot help you. I have no idea of who she is :(

    Dear Superqueen,

    I found your name on the website http://www.starstyleinc.com.
    I desesperately look for a silver cuff bracelet that Mischa Barton always wears (http://www.mischanews.com/2009/10/06/mischa-barton-hails-a-cab/) and I thought that you could maybe help me.

    Thank you so much in advance.

    Peggy

    • superqueen October 7, 2009 at 6:23 pm #

      Hi!
      The cuff bracelets she’s always wearing are both by Tom Binns. The one without skull (and the one with the skull, too, I guess) is from the Rockoco collection.

    Okay, I somehow found your blog while looking for architectural information (go figure…), but I fell in love with the way you analyze the characters of Gossip Girl through their clothing. Makes me want to revisit favorite films and shows to make similar comparisons. :)

    • superqueen January 4, 2010 at 1:36 am #

      Wow, thanks for the compliments. I am happy you enjoyed my Gossip Girl posts :)

    Hey superqueen

    I refer to a pic you posted of Stella Tennant from your personal archive. Her first shoot for Vogue Uk in 1993. I am hoping and praying you have some more pics from that photo shoot, particulary one of Stella posing in a long black lacy dress and huge platforms. I may be wong about those details cos ive not seen that shoot since i was 10 years old – 16 years ago!

    Hoping you can help!!
    A reply to my email would be much apprediated

    Dear Superqueen,

    I saw ur posts in 1 website about Lindsay Lohan’s appearance in Quo Nightclub in late Oct ’09. U said that the jacket she was wearing is from Dsquared2. The name was Tweed-and-Leather Biker Jacket. I know that it was from Dsquared2 Fall 09/Winter 10.
    I wanted to buy it,does online shopping website sell it? Because I’ve searched it in some websites such as Net A Porter, Shopbop, Dillard’s, Nordstrom, Chickdowntown, Neiman Marcus, etc., but couldn’t find any of Dsquared’s stuffs in there. Meanwhile there are Dsquared’s stuffs in Luisaviaroma, but they only provide the collection from Spring/Summer’10 :(
    So, can u pls help me to find info bout that item? Pls, I really2 need the info! Oh yeah btw, where did u take the item’s pic that u posted in that website from?

    I would really appreciate if u could reply me, especially if u could reply by email. I would really2 thankful for that :)
    Thank u in advance.

      Hi!
      I’ve found the pic on a website (don’t ask me which, because I don’t remember), and the pic was linked to Luisaviaroma website, because at the time the jacket was on sale there.
      I have no idea where you could find one (on-line stores are now selling s/s collections), but maybe you could drop Dsquared’s customer service a line and ask if they can help you! Oh, in case you could also check Bluefly.com, which sells items and accessories from past collections.

    Lovely Blog! Such interesting posts and I can really identify with your definition of style. Must be a 70′s baby thing!

  11. mochababe73 April 10, 2010 at 11:20 pm #

    I haven’t read any of the posts yet because I wanted to see if this was written by a drag queen. I guess that I read too much into the name.

    Anyway, now I can’t wait to read the posts because I am 37, a wife, mother, and teacher as well. I like seeing something written by someone that I consider in my demographic. My husband has been telling me for years to start my own blog. Now, I know that if you can do it so can I.

    Keep up the good work.

    • superqueen April 10, 2010 at 11:32 pm #

      Hi! No, I’m not a drag queen ;) I know my nickname is often taken for drag-queen-ish, but it actually comes from a Smashing Pumpkins song I have always loved (Stumbleine). Please let me know what you think of my blog, once you’ve read some posts: I don’t think the average reader of Dallo Spazio is a teacher, a wife and a mother, so I’m really looking forward to hearing your opinion about it. Oh, I hope you won’t be disappointed, but I usually don’t write about my ordinary life (that would be too boring!), because this place is just a way to speak about my passions.

    I work for a high end Optical and I had a customer come in today looking for Kim Kardashian’s sunglasses in pictures taken April 23rd. She was going to a nail salon in Beverly Hills. I saw you had photos posted on another blog and was wondering if you know what she was wearing?

    Thanks,
    Amanda

    • superqueen May 12, 2010 at 12:32 pm #

      Sorry but that style of sunglasses hasn’t been identified yet.
      Check starstyleinc.com soon, maybe someone can find the designed out.

    ciao! scusa se disturbo, ho letto sul tuo vecchio blog che potevi fornire una guida su come distinguere una balenciaga vera da una replica o presunta tale. potrei averla per favore?
    inoltre, ho trovato delle borse made in italy in pelle di agnello identiche ma senza specchietto di cortesia, volevo capire se fosse possibile sapere quale casa italiana realizzi le balenciaga, perche’ di solito i materiali delle imitazioni non sono fedeli… in questo caso e’ tutto molto impressionante :)
    grazie mille per le info e complimenti per il blog, sei piacevolmente comunicativa!
