Summer Rooftop Parties

If we know one thing for sure, it's that summer is the best time to party. And what better than to throw a summer rooftop party?

The only things that you have to think about are: the music, the guest and of course the drinks!

Music: the worst thing that it can happened is to have dead music in your party! Choose songs that are hot and you can set your party on fire! 

The guests: Spending your night with just your beloved one or with your friends or even with 200 guests it depends on you. Just choose the right ones for you. 

Drinks: Probably the most important thing when it comes to parties! Drinks must be fine and well made! Vodka is the it summer drink and it will help you also make various cocktails. I choose Grey Goose because it is the most tasteful vodka out there and my favorite cocktail at the moment is the ''Le Grand Fizz''.

This Jaguar E-Type Has Been Driven From Border To Border

For its latest installment, Petrolicious traveled to Peru to spotlight one very passionate Jag owner named Miguel Rodrigo. Not only does Rodrigo have an affinity for the British vintage car, but he is an architect by profession who appreciates good design—revering the luxurious and curvaceous silhouette of his 1964 Jaguar E-Type Roadster. “I’m an architect, and I’m very design-oriented. I think it’s a classic that everybody likes; you don’t need to be a car aficionado to like this car,” he says.

In the beautiful six-minute clip, the architect goes on to relay the difficulties of possessing a classic car in the South American country—especially during a Peruvian dictatorship in the 1960s when “cars from all over the world” were seized by the government. After the fact, Rodrigo worked relentlessly to import the beloved E-Type so he petitioned for a change in the importation law and won. Moreover, Rodrigo was also a co-founder and two-time champion of an organization that holds coast-to-coast races in Peru.

Watch the clip above to get a more in-depth look at Rodrigo’s 1964 Jaguar E-Type Roadster.

The Good Italian II - The Prince goes to Milan - starring Giancarlo Giannini

The beautifully cinematic and playful Part I of Caruso’s fashion film, The Good Italian, reminded us of classic Italian sensibilities and the charming temperament of a fine gentleman. Reprising his role as the Prince of Soragna, which happens to be the home of the Italian suitmaker, is Giancarlo Giannini (Casino Royale). As the short piece seamlessly crafts a narrative that embodies the beauty and traditions of Italy, viewers are swept up on a culinary journey that continues on from the whimsical stylings of the first installment. As the prince visits the city of Milan, he travels in an exquisite Lancia Aurelia B24 and makes a final stop at the Four Seasons Hotel. There, he fraternizes with the chefs in the Michelin-starred hotel kitchen as they prepare the perfect dinner. Set against the infinitely beautiful backdrop of Italy, Giancarlo’s title character is a vision of refinement and sophistication that reflects the ethos of the label. You can watch the full video above.

“THE GOOD ITALIAN”

The objective of Caruso’s new short movie is to represent and promote, through the most universal media that exists, the brand’s inspiring concept: THE LIFESTYLE OF A GOOD ITALIAN. Caruso wants the world to know that the whole of Italy, not just the most famous tourist destinations, is imbued with that and that have made the “Italian lifestyle” so natural, yet so extraordinary to appear almost unreal. And this is why the narrative uses the language of fairy-tales and “suspension of disbelief” as artistic approach. 

The movie take's place in Soragna. A tiny town of 4,000 inhabitants in the lower Po river valley, where Caruso’s tailoring laboratory is based, represents a concentrate of the great assets of a peaceful and sophisticated Italy that will never go out of fashion.

Nature,Art, Opera,Architecture, Gastronomy,Tailoring... are all expressed to the best in Soragna and its immediate surroundings, to be visited on foot, by bicycle or in a horse-pulled carriage like the noble families that were once the masters of these lands. Caruso, which carries the best of the Italian tailoring tradition in a contemporary setting, wanted this fantastic story to evoke the emotions and pleasure that give authenticity and meaning to the brand.

The plot is all about meeting the unexpected. A couple of English tourists on bike come across by chance a small tumbledown farmhouse, which reveals, behind the creaking door, the interior of a princely mansion: the dining room of the of the Prince Meli Lupi of Soragna, featuring some of the most important baroque frescoes in northern Italy.

The prince, played by actor Giancarlo Giannini, is very hospitable and welcomes the two tourists to his table, laden with from the cellars of Italy’s top producer (the “Antica Corte Pallavicina” of the Spigaroli brothers) together with the typical local wines, from the cellar of a renowned award-winning restaurant in Soragna,“La Stella D’Oro”.

All the pieces worn in the short movie, which lasts 5 minutes in its full version, will be available for purchase, both at the two Caruso flagship stores in New York and Milan and by e-commerce at thecorner.com, the new style platform of YOOX.
