Welcome to my fashion blog. I’m Vittoria from Rome and I love fashion. I      (have) my own clothes shop called 'Italian Style' in Via del Corso. Today is Thursday, and that means my business partner            (work) in our shop, so I             (not/need) to go to work. Lucky me! The weather is beautiful, so I            (wear) my favourite vintage sunglasses and a simple white cotton blouse.
Personally, I             (not/like) clothes with big designer logos all over them - my business partner and I         (believe) that simple, stylish clothes are always the best choice. Come and visit us at 'Italian Style' and see for yourself.
