Groom’s shoes 2024: who said guests only look at the bride?

The big day is approaching and the ‘what shall I wear?’ anxiety rises. No, not just for the bride, let’s dispel this myth: men have these problems too. We at Fratinardi know this and are here to help our future grooms!

As much as it may seem that men’s formal shoes all look alike, this is not exactly the case: there are different models and colours and alternatives to the classics, too. All it takes is a lot of patience and the shoe of your dreams will be yours!

The Timeless

Let’s start with the great classics: oxfords, derbys and, although they have only been around for a few years, loafers, which have become a valid alternative. Perfect for those who want to give their outfits a classic and elegant touch, they have always been the favourite models of future brides and grooms.

Matt, shiny, black, blue, brown… The choice is wider than you might think and you can always play with textures and colours to give an extra touch to your outfit.

But let’s see them together

Oxford

The first choice of future brides and grooms are always the oxfords, the classic shoe par excellence, so called (probably) because they are very popular in the university of the same name. Simple, elegant and with no visible stitching, this shoe is perfect under any dress.

Pay attention to the colour, though, so that it doesn’t clash with those of the dress and accessories!

Derby

Very similar to oxfords, the substantial difference lies in the type of lacing, which in this shoe is open, while in oxfords it is closed. It is possible to find it in two variants, one simple and one with English stitching, as the perforations that decorate the leather are called.

And if they were once considered hunting shoes, today they are perfect for the city man who does not chase prey but style! Ideal for those who want to feel like a true gentleman à la Oscar Wilde.

Loafers

Despite their very ancient history (starting with Native Americans), loafers only became part of our wardrobe in 1936 and not without some difficulty. Did you know that in English they are called loafers? It means ‘lazy’, because they resemble slippers and were considered casual shoes. Almost a hundred years later, however, they have become a must-have for the classy man!

Comfortable and elegant, they are perfect for those who like neither oxfords nor derbies, but still want to have a classic and sophisticated look.

What if I… dare?

Trainers at a wedding? At your wedding! Isn’t that the stuff of kids and 40-year-olds with Peter Pan syndrome?

No.

We all have our own style, and although certain occasions call for a certain outfit, it’s not as if that prohibits you from wearing trainers under a formal dress.

In fact, the final effect is also very pleasing. It gives a casual, relaxed feel to the situation and, if you’re planning an intimate, informal wedding, you’d look more out of place in a pair of derbies than trainers!

From the classic white to the more daring, it is still best to stick to plain colours or at least a few contrasting details. The risk is to make it a misplaced detail rather than a studied one and the slip is just around the corner.

Conclusion

There are no rules for choosing the shoes you will wear at your wedding: choose the ones you feel most comfortable in and that go best with your dress! The important thing is that on that day you will wear shoes that are comfortable enough to allow you to enjoy the happiest day of your life with the person you love most in the world.

Of course, in the WEDDING section of our website (Fratinardi.it/en), you will find many other models to choose from, or come and visit us in our store in Battipaglia (Salerno, Italy). Our shop assistants will be happy to help you.

Sanremo 2024: we comment on the looks of the big names on the first night

We were waiting for it, we were commenting on it even before it came out: the first night of Sanremo. More eagerly awaited than the President’s speech at the end of the year, it finally arrived and all of Italy (or almost) stayed on the couch 2006 World Cup style. Almost. Because that friend who wants to tell you that the festival doesn’t interest him, we all have it and if you don’t have it, it’s because it’s you.

But there is one thing that those who fell asleep at Amadeus’ entrance and those who managed to stay up until the end have in common: criticism. The looks, the songs, the hair… To everything. You can’t not criticise Sanremo! And since ours is a fashion blog, can we refrain from commenting on the outfits?

Here’s what we think of the looks of the big names in the competition!

Clara – Giorgio Armani Privé

Yes, she is the actress from MareFuori.

A bit of a tube of acrylic paint, a bit of toothpaste…. But the final effect is definitely nice!

Outfit Valentine’s Day 2024: What to wear on the most romantic night of the year

After the article on what to give on Valentine’s Day, Fratinardi is back to the rescue of women!

Have you already decided what to wear that evening? Do you still have doubts about the outfit and your wardrobe seems completely empty? Don’t worry, we are here!

Just for you, 4 outfits for all ages and tastes to wear on the most romantic evening of the year!

Romantic and sweet

If you are as sweet as marshmallows, then pink and lace cannot fail to be part of your outfit! This skirt and jacket outfit by Fracomina will do justice to your delicate soul, making you a true 21st century princess.

To break away from the pink, we teamed it with a Safari jacket by Marella and a clutch bag by LoveMoschino!

For the shoes, we were undecided… What would you pair with us? Trainers by 2Star or heels by Guess?

Formal yet elegant

If you prefer a more refined and classic style, such an outfit is for you! The Nardo jacket and Grace trousers suit by Marella will win the heart of your sweetheart. We have teamed it with a Marella blouse in white and some very comfortable pumps by NeroGiardini, not too high (7 and a half cm) and with a spool heel, which supports the stride better.

For this outfit we thought of two bags: a pink clutch by Francesco Italy and a silver one by LoveMoschino. Which one do you prefer?

Bon Ton makes chic

If you are looking for a fashionable, bon ton style, we have the perfect outfit for you!

We thought of a Mariuccia Milano‘s dress to match with these Guessblack, low-heeled pumps and a trapeze-cut Furla‘s mini bag.

For the overcoat, however, the choice is yours! Better the Guessfaux fur coat or the Marella‘s coat?

Sporty-chic

If your style is sporty-chic, then we have just the outfit for you! A skirt and sweater by 4Giveness to match with Guess ankle boots with a bell-shaped heel and a glossy down jacket by Canadian.

You can pair this with either a hobo by Guess or a LoveMoschino backpack. The choice is yours!

Conclusion

We are at the end of this article and hope we have been helpful! If you need more ideas and advice, we would like to remind you that you can find us in Battipaglia (Salerno, Italy) in our shops and online at Fratinardi.it, where you can find much more.

Happy Valentine’s Day to all!

After the Christmas gift advice, comes the shopping advice for this mini festivity, which just can’t fail to inspire you to find the best gift for your sweet, sweetheart!

We at Fratinardi have compiled a mini list for him and one for her, where you will find 5 tips with a few small combinations that just can’t fail to make you look great!

Gift ideas for him

Trainers

Trainers are worn by everyone, but really everyone, and every day. An extra pair can only come in handy for your handsome boyfriend! We have them for all budgets and all you have to do is choose the model you prefer (and would prefer to receive). Remember: giving shoes is not bad luck.

To this, you can add a romantic smartbox for a stay with a romantic dinner. What better time to put on your new shoes?

Backpack

Whether you use it for work or going to university, a backpack is always a good buy. Spacious, roomy and always useful, even for travelling!

So, to add an extra touch to your gifts, how about combining them with a nice stay in Europe?

Wallets

Is your boyfriend more the card-carrying type or the wallet type? Doesn’t matter! Here at Fratinardi you will find the best proposals, from the most elegant to the most practical, for the perfect gift.

To this, why not combine it with a piece of jewellery? A bracelet or necklace, perhaps, to make it even more special!

Beatles

Ever since the Beatles made them famous, these ankle boots have never gone out of fashion. They have a wider toe than the Chelsea boots and no man, regardless of his style, can do without them! Ideal for both casual and semi-formal looks, a gift like this is bound to please your boyfriend!

And if your guy is also a Netflix guy (who isn’t?), why not also combine it with a gift card for a subscription to the world’s most popular streaming site?

Belt

A nice belt can never be missing in a person’s wardrobe and having a few extra ones is never a bad thing! So why not give one to your man as a present? From the most classic to the most unusual, you are sure to find the variant that suits you.

And to that, why not add a nice personalised gift with your photos? You will be delighted!

Gift ideas for her

Having finished the list of gifts for him, let us move on to the list of gifts for her.

Décolleté

Décolletés appeal to everyone (or almost everyone). Exven if your girlfriend is the comfortable shoe type, you should know that our heels can please everyone (but really everyone!). We have dizzy ones, high ones, low ones, stilettos… We could go on and on, but we’d rather show you!

Why not surprise her at home with a beautiful bouquet of flowers? With Interflora you can have it delivered directly to her home and surprise her with a sweet awakening!

Clutch bags

Clutch bags are always a welcome gift! They are versatile and from a handbag and elegant, they can become casual thanks to the comfortable shoulder strap. Surely your girlfriend will be delighted to receive one!

To this, you can match a perfume! A sweet or sensual or elegant essence… Whatever reminds you of her.

Trainers

As we have already said for men, we all wear trainers. So why not choose a model that suits your style and accompanies you in your everyday life?

Then combine them with a nice bracelet and you definitely can’t go wrong!

Keyring

If your girlfriend always loses her keys, the ideal is to give her a nice heart-shaped key ring, just like the ones Love Moschino makes! Beautiful, romantic and sure to help her remember where she put her house keys and never lose them in her purse again.

Then, a romantic dinner is not denied to anyone. Right?

Shopping bag

A shopping bag is perfect for girls who work or study away from home all day. They are big enough to hold everything you need to cope with university or the office….

And with delicious homemade chocolates inside, how could he not love you for the rest of your life?

Conclusion

We hope we have helped you find the right inspiration to celebrate this very romantic day! For any other suggestions please do not hesitate to contact us, we will be delighted to help you! We look forward to seeing you online at Fratinardi.it/en and in our shops in Battipaglia (Salerno, Italy) for many other beautiful options for your sweetheart (and for you)!

Bags and shoes trends spring/summer 2024: Discover them with Guess!

Spring is approaching and it’s time to know the trends for the coming seasons. We don’t want to be unprepared! New colours, new heels, new bags… Ready to renew your wardrobe? With Fratinardi, it has never been so easy!

We observed the new fashion shows and selected for you the best accessories, all to wear, by Guess! A brand that will hardly go out of fashion and that even in this 2024 gives us many little pearls.

Between column heels, pastel colours and shoulder bags, are you ready to discover the new trends with us?

S/S 2024 shoes: between everyday life and comfortable heels

This year’s watchword is definitely ‘comfort‘! Guess is approaching women by giving them many shoes, all wearable, that won’t make your feet suffer. From trainers to heels, there is no need to fear: they are so light that it will be like not having them.

Sneakers

The new Guess trainers (strictly made of faux leather) all have a high ankle support while walking. Ideal for those who are always in a hurry, they are made to accompany you throughout the day, from running to the office to after-work shopping before going home. Safe and reliable companions that must be part of your shoe cupboard!

Simple yet refined in detail, they suit both a casual and a sporty-chic style. Logo-printed (as fashion houses are so fond of this year), white or with touches of colour, they really do suit everyone!

Décolletés and Sandals

The heels of this 2024 are meant to be chic but still comfortable. With their refined design, they revisit the classic décolleté, giving it a contemporary twist.

The famous column heel is back (as Vogue called it), a mix between the classic stiletto and the spool heel that has been so popular over the last year. Proposed and re-proposed by the most disparate catwalks, even Guess gives us its version:

A new must-have. A must-have. Now.

And back comes the immortal Chanel, made famous by the French designer whose name it bears, which Guess shows us in a simple, low version, ideal for all working women who just don’t want to give up heels!

Tote, hobo, shoulder bags and more!

Once again this year (because every year we have the same certainty), Guess gives us fantastic bags that really, how can we do without them? In pastel and delicate tones, very trendy this 2024, our outfits will never be complete without such a bag!

Tote

Ideal for work at the office or a morning at university, the new Guess tote bags are made to be filled to the brim. Made of faux leather, delicate and in light tones, these shoppers will accompany you throughout the day!

Cross-body bags

These cross-body bags are suitable for those quiet mornings or afternoons when one is looking for a moment to oneself, but also to accompany us between errands on messy days. Basically, they are suitable for anything and everything.

Handbags

The new Guess hand bags are a little gem we can’t do without. A passe-partout for evening outings, afternoons at the bar, busy mornings, days at work… Everything.

Conclusion

This is just a small taste of what Guess gives us every year! Models that are always new and original, capable of adapting to every outfit and giving an extra touch to your style.

To discover them, visit us in our shops in Battipaglia (Salerno, Italy) or on our website Fratinardi.it/en!

S/S 2024 bridal shoes: the trends that will make you say “yes, I do!”

The most beautiful part of a wedding? Choosing your shoes and dress! Sure, you may be marrying the love of your life, but when do you ever get to dress like a princess?

And if shoes are the last thing you need, you can’t help but rely on us at Fratinardi to choose the right pair!

Quality, elegance and comfort: the magic of Made in Italy will be at your feet on the most romantic day of your life.

Trends

New year, new trends and so do bridal shoes. Women are increasingly looking for shoes that are comfortable but do not lose their elegance, that slim but do not make them want to throw them off in the middle of the day. So fashion comes to their aid, creating beautiful shoes with ergonomic insoles, platforms and wide heels to make every wish come true!

Like these by Francesco Couture and Albano!

But what really characterises bridal shoes 2024? The glitter! Yes, we will be ditching the glitter next year too, wearing jewelled sandals and pumps! The chanel (or slingback) is also making a comeback, not only in white but also in metallic colours, as Francesco Couture shows us.

Floral details, strictly in 3D, will dominate the scenes of the most imaginative brides! Who said you have to be sober at your wedding?

But let’s find out the trends specifically:

Comfortable heels: a life-saving choice

Spool or block, it doesn’t matter! For brides who prefer heels, it is important that these are comfortable to be worn all day long.

Between ceremony, reception, relatives photographers who will make you spend the day standing for the umpteenth selfie and the fateful dance, your feet will be put to the test. Better be prepared: a supportive heel will be your best ally.

And there are so many types. Decorated with glitter, covered in satin, leather… You’re spoilt for choice!

Chanel: let’s discover the heels

Here, too, there is something for everyone: the chanel model knows how to please even the most difficult tastes thanks to its design, which is always contemporary and revisited to suit current trends.

Whether you want them open-toed or pointed, with block or stiletto heels, this is a model that never disappoints and the big brands know it. This year, chanels seem to have taken on all the trends, redecorating and colouring themselves to suit all brides.

I brillantini: un romantico must-have

If you don’t want a trail of glitter, jewel shoes (most often pumps or sandals) are also very fashionable, where small luminous applications light up the shoe to embellish it.

A great proposal from fashion houses (picking up on the 2023 trend), are small strips embellished with diamantes that follow the line of the shoe or the shape of the foot or ankle.

3D flowers

In tulle or satin, it doesn’t matter: they will dominate the scenes along with the glitter. It is up to the bride to decide where she wants them applied. Heel? Toe? Ankle? The important thing is that the bride likes it!

A good choice especially for those getting married in spring, when the flowers will bloom, to bring a bit of nature with them.

Change of Shoes

And if before the end your feet are already red and swollen, then put your beautiful shoes back in their box and return to the party with a new, more comfortable and low-cut pair!

Whether trainers, sandals or flats, make sure the colour doesn’t clash and that they are comfortable enough to keep you walking until even the last relative has gone home.

Of course, even daring with a pair of Dr. Martens won’t make you go unnoticed (and not just because you are the brides and undisputed stars of the party), if only so as not to hide that rock soul that belongs to all women after all!

Conclusion

One must first fall in love with bridal shoes, even better if at first sight. We at Fratinardi wish future brides our best wishes and invite you to visit us online at Fratinardi.it/en and in our shops in Battipaglia (Salerno, Italy), in search of those shoes that will make your heart beat faster!

Winter Sale 2024: realise your desires with Fratinardi and renew your wardrobe

If Christmas is the time of love, altruism and giving, with the sales we can finally indulge in a bit of healthy selfishness and think about those things we have always wanted to buy but put off. This is the perfect time to renew our wardrobe: we can buy that shoe that has always had a much lower price tag and match it with that fantastic bag we have been looking at in the window for a long time.

Why not then add a little coat, a few sweaters (you can never have too many) and another pair of shoes to celebrate the start of the sales?

The shopping possibilities are potentially endless and, potentially, so is our wishlist. So how do we untangle ourselves in this sea of discounts without drowning in compulsive shopping? Let’s start with the basics, let’s start with a list! Let’s create it together with Fratinardi.

What do we need?

This is the first question to ask ourselves. Let’s start with our wardrobe and take a look at it: what would we throw away and why?

If we decide to throw away our favourite suede ankle boots because the heel has come irretrievably off, then we can add a similar model to our list.

That pair of jeans, on the other hand, that we are throwing away because we like the cut but are not convinced enough, well, let’s forget about such a model: no use buying a similar pair in the heat of the moment, only to have it gather dust in the wardrobe.

The evaluative look

After carefully evaluating our wardrobe and deciding what we need and what we want, we take a look at the Fratinardi.it/en website.

There are numerous brands that will be discounted during this period, both in terms of shoes and clothes and accessories. Once we have decided what we need, it will be easy to evaluate the products on the site!

Marella, 4Giveness, Gai Mattiolo… Everything we need to renew our wardrobe: dresses, trousers and bags to be chic in every moment of our day!

Let’s create outfits!

We buy what we need by first creating outfits. If we see a coat we like, we think about what we would wear with it and when we would wear it!

What bags would look best on us? Hobo? Shopping? Clutch bags? Backpacks? Then let’s explore the best accessory brands: Ermanno Scervino, Love Moschino, Valentino or Liu Jo? Which of them will be able to fulfil our dreams?

Then we move on to shoes. We have so many models and so many brands: it’s impossible not to find the one that’s right for us! Alviero Martini, Jeannot, NeroGiardini, Hogan and Geox are just some of the big names, symbols of quality and made in Italy.

Let’s not forget: it will be cold for a while yet

The cold weather has yet to really arrive. That’s why we advise you not to underestimate the power of a hat and scarf when the January and February winds blow. Liu Jo, 4Giveness and Regina have created some beautiful ones, not only for women, but also for girls and little girls! They could be the ideal gift for our daughters and granddaughters.

And if you suffer a lot from the cold, don’t forget to buy a good pair of gloves!

Conclusion

Sales are your time! Buying what you want at discounted prices is your gift to yourself, especially if what you were given at Christmas did not fully satisfy you.

Create your wishlist and spare no expense. Shopping at Fratinardi means that everything you put in your shopping cart will be of quality and will last. A well-thought-out and well-thought-out wardrobe, buying well-made products, is sustainable and not at all a waste, neither of time nor money.

So, visit us in Battipaglia (Salerno, Italy) or on our website Fratinardi.it/en. Make your shopping unforgettable!

New Year’s Eve 2024 Outfit Ideas: 5 looks to be the stars of the party

Gone are the days of “What are you doing on New Year’s Eve?” from friends and relatives, now are those of “What am I wearing on New Year’s Eve?“, red knickers aside, of course! Another question that will find us women in front of wardrobes full of clothes that we wear every day but which, just now, we have decided we no longer like.

To help you cope with this indecision, we at Fratinardi have created 5 looks that will leave you speechless, one for each occasion. So that you are ready to shine on the last night of the year!

New Year’s Eve at home with friends

Not everyone likes to celebrate in a big way, there are those who prefer to wait for the New Year at home, playing and having fun with friends (or family). Between board games, bingo, cards and a few glasses of wine, the wait can only be lived in peace and joy.

For all you housewives out there, we thought of a casual, but still impressive outfit, just eccentric enough to shine even within the walls of your own home! A zebra dress by 4Giveness with fuchsia details, to be worn with simple ankle boots and a down jacket by Canadian that echoes the details of the dress:

New Year’s Eve in the square

Among the most popular choices are undoubtedly celebrations in squares, especially in larger cities. A great option for those who live there and certainly also for tourists, who will be treated to wonderful concerts and shows.

So why not be wonderful too?

For a New Year’s Eve under the stars, we have come up with a semi-formal outfit, which will still make you look elegant, while leaving you comfortable enough to get through this evening!

We chose two pairs of shoes: ankle boots with platforms for those who don’t want to give up heels but still be comfortable, and amphibians for those who prefer something decidedly more comfortable.

New Year’s Eve at the restaurant

Dinners at restaurants are among the classic celebrations: luxurious or not, the important thing is to go with those who make us feel good and, let’s face it, it is less tiring than spending the evening at home. No one has to clean or worry about everything going well, others will take care of that for you.

The only thing to think about is the outfif! And since we’ll take care of that instead….

(For a formal evening)

(For an informal evening)

All that’s left for you to do is have fun!

New Year’s Eve at the disco

If crowds don’t frighten you and dancing is your passion, you can’t pass up a New Year’s Eve in a disco, perhaps celebrating among the most exclusive in your Country.

You certainly won’t be able to disfigure yourself and for you we have thought of a dress that will make you shine under the hall lights!

New Year’s Eve in the mountains

The mountains are a dream destination on New Year’s Eve, with snow and a crackling fireplace creating the right atmosphere and the right people with whom to usher in the New Year… The problem is the outfit, which must be warm but no less beautiful.

So go for the jumper and trousers, not forgetting the right pair of socks and stockings.

Conclusion

Christmas gifts for kids: 5 great ideas for all ages!

Whether they are children of friends or relatives, giving presents to children is perhaps more difficult than giving them to adults! It is not just a matter of pleasing the little one, who often only needs a favourite cartoon toy, but also of pleasing and satisfying the parents’ tastes. Adults are demanding, you know, and often the easiest way is to choose a gift that is useful, of quality, beautiful to look at… An almost impossible task, until you rely on Fratinardi!

That is why we have compiled for you 5 gift ideas to please children and parents alike and make this Christmas 2023 even more magical.

Sweatshirt

An ideal gift for teenagers, but also comfortable and practical for children, sweatshirts in the wardrobe are never enough. They’re soft, they make you feel free to move, perfect for an afternoon of play when you’re younger and always practical when you’re older. What’s more, fashion has cleared this garment through customs, making it the garment of choice for guys looking for an urban-chic style!

In our shops and online, you can find different ones for all ages! Who knows, between one gift and another, you might find the right one for you?

Not to mention the endless combinations! Whether worn over a jumpsuit or jeans, they are always a great choice!

Coat or duvet?

Given the cold winter weather, it can be a really good choice to give one as a present. Depending on the parents’ (or the teenager’s, if we are talking about teenagers) favourite style, you can really range between infinite models!

The important thing is that they are comfortable and warm, so watch out for size and materials, but you don’t have to worry about quality when you buy from Fratinardi: we only choose the best products for our customers!

They are great to match with scarves and hats, but also earmuffs for chic girls who want a more sophisticated style:

Dress

If it is a little girl or girl who is to receive the gift, giving a little dress can be a great choice, especially if she is very style-conscious! The perfect gift for anyone who wants to look feminine and elegant on any occasion, especially special ones.

So if your little girl (or girl) is a budding little Barbie, why not take advantage of this and give her a dress? There are different ones in our store and they suit every style and need, even for those who never want to give up comfort as well as beauty and femininity.

Jumper

No, non solo le femminucce amano essere eleganti in ogni occasione, anche per i maschietti (complici la moda e i social) si sentono finalmente più liberi di essere vanitosi. Per a quei ragazzini che non seguono la moda underground e che invece preferiscono uno stile più classico, regalare un maglioncino può essere la scelta migliore!

Qui da Fratinardi la scelta è davvero vasta, qui ve ne mostriamo solo una piccola parte:

And for babies?

A world apart opens up here, made up of sweetness, tenderness and pure wads of love! Little sleepsuits, little T-shirts… So many little things to dress babies in a Christmas theme and more. The choice is vast: do you prefer a split outfit or a one-piece? Neutral colours or classic light blue and pink? Merino wool or cotton? You just have to decide!

Not to mention the cuddly accessories, coordinated with the outfits, perfect for completing the outfits of budding little fashion addicts!
