Based in New York City, creative Emilia Buccolo, ex co-founder of Smith&Smith, shares her day-to-day with us. She grabbed our attention mainly with her sincerity, vitality and quality of being simple. The lightness of her personal style is so genuine, that it can not be misinterpreted.

On style: Style for me is the ART of being you! Being you, does not go out of trend and you cant buy it at a store. Style has nothing to do with fashion in some senses, its how much you dare to exude your inner grace.
