Viviana Volpicella Vs. J.J. Martin: A Fashion Face-off

JJ: Let me start by saying that my outfit was so much better in real life than it is in this photo.  In this picture my fuzzy vintage plaid bathroom looks crazy-pants with this lovely gauzy cotton dress.

VV: I love your look. The colors totally go together.  You look like you’re going out to buy newspapers in New York.

JJ: I’d like to see what the New Yorkers have to say about that.

VV: And I want to steal your bathrobe. I’m crazy about it. Will you give it to me?

JJ: No way. I found it in the bottom of a junk bin at sunrise at the Rose Bowl flea market in LA. I drove 55 minutes in the dark for chrissakes to have that coat. The vintage dress on the other hand, is light and gauzy and pure bliss.  I have to say I love your look. It’s so Southern Italian.

VV: It’s my Capri look!  You need a shawl at night in Capri – I always bring them. I have this one in red, black or beige. The red is perfect here. I love this dress so much. I’d wear it every night in the summer.
