A Slice of Heaven

  Exploring the Traditional Lasagna Lasagna, that magnificent creation of layered pasta, savory sauce, and gooey cheese, is a dish that transcends borders and cultures. Its origins may be debated, but its ability to warm hearts and fill bellies is undeniable. Today, we delve into traditional lasagna, exploring its rich history, key components, and the magic that unfolds when these elements come together. A Historical Tapestry: The story of lasagna stretches back centuries, possibly originating in ancient Greece. The term "lasagna" is believed to derive from the Greek "laganon," meaning a flat sheet of dough. These early Laganas were likely boiled and layered with various toppings, laying the foundation for the lasagna we know today. The dish evolved through the centuries, influenced by the culinary traditions of different regions in Italy. In Naples, tomatoes, a New World import, transformed the sauce, adding a vibrant acidity and sweetness. Emilia-Romagna, ...

Sequins and polka dots, the must have of fashion 2021.

 If we have learned something from the world of fashion, it is to pay attention to the parades of the great fashion weeks worldwide, mainly those in New York, Paris and Milan. These, and many others, are the ones that set the guidelines for the trends that will be worn season after season. We do not always see pieces that we can wear in our day to day, but it does serve as a source of inspiration to create our looks and to know what type of garments, colors and textures they will wear.

And two of the trends that we saw coming for this year 2021 are undoubtedly polka dots and sequins , although it is not surprising, since both are classics of street style year after year.

The polka dots have not surprised us so much, since they are perfect for any type of look, be it a more sophisticated style or something more casual . What has caught our attention a little more has been the return of sequins, commonly associated with parties and evening looks and since due to restrictions we do not have any of these options,

What reason has brought these little brilliants back?

Well, as the Italian brand Missoni assures, sequins have always been synonymous with celebration and this time it was not going to be less, and now that it seems that little by little things are improving (and we hope it continues like this), we can begin to celebrate, in a prudent way, the return of the long-awaited normality.

Also, who said that sequins cannot be worn during the day?

 Polka dots, a pattern that never goes out of style

When we talk about moles we cannot avoid talking about Carolina Herrera and if there is something immovable season after season on the catwalks of this firm that is the moles and this year it was not going to be less. But another pattern has appeared that will become the direct competition of the international brand's garments, hearts. And, with a format similar to polka dots, hearts, in the purest Agatha Ruíz de la Prada style, in different sizes, colors and versions, will be the star of Carolina Herrera's garments this 2021.

The collection presented by the Venezuelan designer for next fall-winter 2021/2022 is inspired by the attitude of the residents of the Big Apple, and has the two trends that have brought us here today, heart- shaped polka dots and sequins .

We can find hearts especially in blouses and dresses, but we can also see them in accessories or integrated into garments in button format.

We can also see pieces with incredible polka dots, in different colors, including the classic black and white combination. One of my favorite bets in this regard is the use of two different funds in the same garment, with polka dots on each of them in a complementary way.

But not only Carolina Herrera bets on polka dots, we can find this pattern in a multitude of garments made by different brands and in the most common stores.

 Bet everything on glitter, and what better way to do it than with sequins?

After a fateful year, we began to see the light at the end of the tunnel and what better way to celebrate it than to leave the tracksuits and pajamas that defined our 2021 out of fashion and giving way to garments that once again show the joy we feel when we dress up and celebrate. .

At the moment, this decade has little to do with the crazy 20s of the last century, but if they have something in common so far it is the casual aesthetics as far as fashion is concerned, although today the garments have a more modern style, that's clear. We look back through the hems, the bright colors, the cheerful prints and, of course, the sequins. And it is that this 2021 we will see these brilliant pieces in all kinds of garments, including jacket and trouser suits such as the one presented by the Louis Vuitton firm in silver.

 Do you dare with the looks that combine both trends?

And if I told you that it is possible to combine both trends in a single garment and look perfect, what would you say to me?

The truth is that it is not something new, since we have already seen this fusion on previous occasions, as is the case of the midi dress in black with small white polka dots that Queen Letizia wore at the Mariano de Cavia Journalism Awards ceremony in the year 2018, the three-quarter dress by Paula Ordovás (@mypeeptoes) in red with large black polka dots also from 2018, or the short gold dress with black polka dots that model Helen Lindes wore during her pregnancy in 2018.

It is also ideal to combine sequins and polka dots in two different pieces. Don't you know how to do it? Very simple, opt for a sequined dress in a plain tone and add black tights with darker polka dots and wear a sweet style ideal for any evening plan.

Although both trends seem too elegant for the plans we are used to today, as I always tell you, fashion is an attitude, a way of expressing yourself and it doesn't matter what time of day or what date you have, you can look ideal with the garment you choose as long as you feel comfortable wearing it yourself.
